Youth Much Like Fireworks (in Japanese 青春は花火のように, Seishun wa Hanabi no You ni) is the fourteenth track on the limited edition of Linked Horizon's second album Shingeki no Kiseki. It is the full version of the opening theme to the anime Attack on Titan: Junior High.

Excuse me, but I’d like to eat that cheese burger!

O, bird that soars across the skies
What color did the flower petals have when they scattered on the battlefield?

(If you have <love>?)
These are precious things
(Will you also have <rice? Comedy?>)
As childish as they may be
Did you wish to regain them?

Spinning, spinning, spin-off, school life

Absurd school rules, senseless restraints
Kick down those <doors> to your bird cage
Youth leaps out in one moment of <eternity>

A silly and boisterous festival, a miraculous turn of events
Like the fireworks that adorn the night sky, it leaves behind brilliant trails

Who was it that looked upon the windy skies?
Did the nighthawk burn brightly in its search for a star?

(Within the school gates[walls]?)
There is no freedom to speak of
(Will you bring an end to it?)
In this merciless world
Did you wish to destroy such a world?

Spinning, spinning, spin-out, school days

Meek obedience, enforced by the system
Sow the seedlings of crimson fire
Always right at the head of this endless battle

All the hustle and bustle, it’s like a fantasy
Like the fireworks that paint the night sky, it engraves these memories upon passing seasons

Can’t bear to look at these wounds? Who has 8th grade syndrome now?
I’m not gonna ‘know my place’, cuz that’s the job of adults!
We’re in 7th grade!

A scene we dreamt of, such passionate adoration
Rid yourself of your weak hearts
And move forth, steady in your advancement
Roll around in mud and open up those blossoms
Like the fireworks that are drawn to the night sky, it sings of a flaming hope

Ah...attack → attack → on junior high!
