Long Shot
Mayu Maeshima Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is a fate that brought us here watch my long shot

Feel like I am falling into the flame of lies
Tell me what do you want from me
Trying not to step back to where I used to belong
Looking for the escape from pain

I will cross my fingers hoping not to be sacrificed
約束したんだ君とその希望に
Get in the raid
Get ready for the time to come
浮かび上がるシルエット追いかけ

Drop down the reason why I'm standing here alone
Maybe it's already too late to regain
運命としてかかげた灯を
失くさないで
Ever again

What if I could right my wrongs
And save you from the pain
It's not enough
It's not enough for me to break the rule upon this world

I will never gonna leave you
Never wanna lose you
We'll make it in the end
Not backing down for real
I won't trace someone else's life
I know who I am

Blame me if I messed up anything
Take a risk of everything
Justify this cruel world
空回りした叫び虚空へ
吸い込まれていく影を残して

I will cross my fingers
Hoping not to be sacrificed
約束したんだ君とその希望に
Get in the raid
Get ready for the time to come
浮かび上がるシルエット追いかけ

Wake up bring back
And don't regret to be yourself
It's all you

何度だっていいんだ覚悟してんだ
全て守ると決めたよ
君がいるから

絡み合う未来を この手で変えてみせるとして
すべきことは分かっているから

Take this pain away from me
この胸の鼓動に乗せて
There's no way I can fail
見届けて欲しいと願った

Drop down the reason why I'm standing here alone
Maybe it's already too late to regain
運命としてかかげた灯を失くさないで
Brace yourself
Don't forget, this is your fate

What if I could right my wrongs
And save you from the pain
It's not enough
It's not enough for me to break the rule upon this world

I will never gonna leave you
Never wanna lose you
We'll make it in the end
Not backing down for real




I won't trace someone else's life
I know who I am
