Tough & Alone
MYTH & ROID Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
Far away from there
No one else is here
胸を満たす 伽藍堂に
もう貴方も 誰もいない
一人きり 欠けた月 仰ぐ夜(よ)に
You were gone......
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
何も恐れずいる強さが
すぐに欲しくて
心に厚く鉄をまとった
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
固く閉じた扉の鍵は
あの日、貴方と
最後に笑った日に隠した
I called out to you
Called to everyone
But no one answered
去った人の 行方など
追いかけても 虚しいだけ
Don't let me out.
I must stay now
Even though I don't want to
何も許さず切り捨てては
誰の言葉も
信じるよりも先に疑った
Don't let me out.
I must stay now
Even though I don't want to
自らの手で作る壁が
気づいた時に
遠く背丈さえも越えていた ah......
隔絶・寂寞・荒涼・空白・絶望
その心象風景
Everytime I feel alone,
You are fading away
もう何も届きはしない
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
何も恐れずいる強さが
すぐに欲しくて
心に厚く鉄をまとった
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own
固く閉じた扉を開けて
あの日の様に
笑える日がいつか来たなら......
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own......
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own......
Don't look back.
Keep moving forward
Gotta be tough on my own......
