Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

お遊ぎ会主役に立候補
躊躇いもなく疑いもなく
諦めもせず
今じゃ悲劇のヒロイン
「どうせムリ」とか
「やっぱりムリ」だと挫折地点
"辛い経験"や"失敗"が
"楽しかった時間"よりも

心に残るのは一生傷がつくからさ
"目には見えない幸せ"より
"形となり残る痛み"を
感じた心が臆病者（ボク）を
強くしてくれるから
CHANGE MY LIFE
トレーニング行った次の日
筋肉痛になった方がやった甲斐ある
昨日の頑張った成果が
証となって残ってるから
楽しちゃ××
「努力すれば報われる」って
誰かがいってたけどなら
今頃、報われた人で
溢れてるはずじゃない
大丈夫じゃない時こそ
口癖のように「ダイジョーブ」って
自分に言い聞かせる為の
呪文とければ一気に
錯覚崩れてく
もし「残された命（時間）があと
１ヶ月」だと言われたなら...
「あれしなきゃヨカッタ」より
「もっとあれしとけば
ヨカッタ」って
どうせ後悔するんだから
「今からでもまだ間に合う」と
何度でもRESETボタンおして
さあ位置について
つまずき座りこんだ時は足元みて
自分の足の前に線を引けば
それがSTARTラインになるから

「これだけやったから
悔いはない」と思う為
