I often stare back at the footprints that I made, saying "Where am "I" now?"
Holding a dead leaf, I drew my dream with fingers numb from cold by the window in autumn

I have wings, but I can't fly with them; I'm frightened of being alone, and it's painful
Passing through days with arms across each others shoulders in the gentle sun, we walk toward our lonely dreams

Goodbye isn't a sad word; A yell connects us to our individual dreams
Holding the days we spent together in my heart, I take off alone to the future sky

Why do we search for ourselves in an address-less darkness, impatient for answers
Even though tears from just thinking of someone and straightforward smiles are right here

Escaping and getting lost in patching up our "true selves" with someone's words
Grasping a hold of the strength to face our weaknesses as they are, we run toward tomorrow for the first time

When we say goodbye to someone, we are able to change again; I wonder if we can be strong?
Even if we take off for different skies, the feelings that are in my heart even now won't cease

From the time that we realized that there's no such thing as forever
The day that we laughed together and the day that we sung together
Are being carved into our hearts strongly and deeply
So then you, so then we
Won't lose out to anyone, anyone else at all
Raising our voices, we promised that as "ourselves"
We would live our lives; One by one we chose our separate roads

Goodbye isn't a sad word; A yell connects us to our individual dreams
Until the day that we meet again, I won't forget my pride; To the sky, my friends

There are words that we all share; A yell connects our voices, heart to heart
Holding the days we spent together in my heart, I take off alone to the future sky
