Break Down
AAA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
地面蹴りつけ 走り続けろ
Rise up now, break down
迷いの中で 掴んだこの手が絆になる
Let's blow in the world
輝く汗 頬をつたう 見たこともない眼差し
譲れない未来があると その瞳がうなづいてた
Wow, wow, wow, wow yeah
ただがむしゃらに keep runnin'
雨と涙に邪魔され見えない明日に
(熱く) 溺れそうでも 君といれば確かに (魂)
光り輝く未来が (燃え尽きるまで) チラリ
明日に飲み込まれても そこに君がいるなら
僕はまだ諦めない
Wake up now, break down
地面蹴りつけ 走り続けろ
Rise up now, break down
迷いの中で 掴んだこの手が絆になる
Let's blow in the world
この想いを誓うための 言葉は何もいらない
鏡の中覗くように お互いを確かめ合った
Wow, wow, wow, wow yeah
止まっちゃらんないさ だってきっと one life won't be long
ショッパイ有象無象 ゴミ箱に放り込む (一人じゃない)
待っちゃらんないさ boys & girls もういいかい?
正気と狂気 (そうさ そうだろ?) 混ざり合った 真っ赤な stormy
砂を噛むような日々も 底無しの絶望も
決してもう怖くはない
Wake up now, break down
限界超えて 挑み続けろ
Rise up now, break down
時代の風に 傷ついた翼高く広げ
Let's blow in the world
Any more ちょうだい (getting' high!)
目にも止まらない wake up now, break down
かすかな輝きが集まって光放った
あの頃なら彼方 でもまだ始まったばっか
Wake up now, break down
地面蹴りつけ 走り続けろ
Rise up now, break down
迷いの中で 掴んだこの手が絆になる
Let's blow in the world
