Lyrics

何も感じてない振りで

君は今日もやり過ごす

優しくされちゃったら

立てなくなるから

Feeling nothing,

You spend today passing time,

If I'm kind,

It's because you're unable to stand.

やり直してみたい過去と

忘れ去ってしまう光

どちらが大事か

なんて分からないよね

Wanting to start over with your past,

And the light you left behind,

Which is important?

Such things I don't understand.

希望や愛の歌が

溢れてる理由は

それを見たいとみんなが願っているから

The reason the song of hope and love is overflowing is because,

Everyone wishes to see it.

今

君を見つめているアクセンティア

その心が壊れてしまわないように

Now,

The Accentier you see,

So as not to break your heart, 

ずっとたった独りで歩けはしないさ

そうさ

今日も明日もきっと１年経ってもゴールじゃない

Will walk with you all the way so that you are not alone,

Yes;

Today, tomorrow,

And even one year later, they're not the goal.

そして

君を抱きしめるアクセンティア

取り出したのは小さな贈り物

And so,

The Accentier that holds you tight,

What they take out is a small gift.

心と心を繫いでいく

そんな力を君のその右手に

GAN! GAN! GAN!

Connecting heart and heart,

Power like that is in your right hand,

BANG! BANG! BANG!
