Lyrics

Doko made mo zutto tsuzuku to omotteta

Nichijou wa hakanaku kuzurete kieta
Taikutsu da to sae kanjite karonjiteta
Shiawase no sono hontou no imi ni kizuita...

Michitarite nakatta wake janakattanda
Bokutachi wa sore wo mou ichido torimodosou to shitanda...

Umaku yareta to omotta koto de sae
Dareka no kanashimi wo shireba muryoku de
Ikudo mo konnan ni butsukatte wa tachidomari
Mokuteki no sono hontou no imi ni kizuita...

Akirameru koto ni nareta wake janakattanda
Bokutachi wa sore ni mou ichido tachimukaou to shitanda...

Tozasareta yami no naka [hikari] wo kanjitanda...
Kimi no [me] ni... kotoba ni... ushiro sugata ni...
Ushinau tame dake ni umareta wake janai to...
Omoeta no wa... shinjirareta no wa... sou... kimi ga ita kara sa...

Kooritsuita [toki] no naka [ashita] wo kanjitanda...
Kimi no te ni... egao ni... tatakau sugata ni...
Aa... wakareru tame dake ni deatta wake janai to...
Omoeta no wa... shinjirareta no wa... sou... kimi ga ita kara...

Nan'no tame... dare no tame... tatakaeba ii? Toosugite... chikasugite... toki ni miushinau...
Kizutsuite mo... uragirarete mo... sekai wo shiru itami wo osorenai de...

Massugu ni... tada... massugu ni... hikari e mukau
Aa... taorete mo... mata... taorete mo... nando demo tachiagaru
KIMI to tsumuida [BARADDO]—―

"[Hikari] e mukau [BARADDO]"
We thought they would continue on forever

But our everyday lives crumbled and faded away
We finally realized the true meaning behind the happiness
That we grew tired of, and even took lightly

It’s not like we’re not fulfilled
We’re just trying to regain it, once more

Even in things that we thought went smoothly
Once we know of someone’s sadness, we are powerless
We come upon many trials and difficulties, standing idle before them
We finally realized the true meaning behind goals

It’s not like we’re getting used to giving up
We’re just trying to make a stand against it, once more

Within the closed darkness, I felt the presence of light
In your eyes, in your words, in your silhouette from behind
I came to think that
I wasn’t born to experience loss, and believed in it
Yes, all because you were there

Within frozen time, I felt the presence of tomorrow
In your hands, your smile, your form in battle, ah...
I came to think that
It wasn’t a meeting fated to turn into parting, and believed in it
Yes, all because you were there

For what, and for whom should we fight for?
At times too far, at times too close, at times out of sight
Even if you were to be hurt or betrayed
Do not fear the pain of knowing the world

Bravely Default...

We head on towards the light, straight on
Ah, even if we are to fall and collapse
We will just stand back up, again and again
This is the ballad I wove with you

A ballad to light
