kanji & kana

    前しか向かねえ
    横を向いたら
    涙に気づかれるから
    遠くを睨(にら)んで
    奥歯　噛み締め
    この道を行こう！

    おまえと出会い
    ずっとつるんで
    青春の日々に
    反抗してた
    人生にとって
    大事なことは
    未来にあると
    俺たちは知った

    今が楽しくても
    永遠に続くわけじゃねえ
    しがみつくな

    前しか向かねえ
    最後くらいは
    カッコつけさせてくれ
    新しい世界に
    ビビってるけど
    もう後には引けねえ
    歩いた道　振り向いたって
    風が吹いてるだけ
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW…

    俺が恋して
    破れた夜は
    ガキの頃のように
    ブランコに立ち
    汚い言葉
    大声で叫び
    そばにいてくれた
    やさしさが染みた

    どんなつらくたって
    悲しみが続くわけじゃねえ
    強く生きようぜ

    前しか向かねえ
    別れの時
    明日を信じようぜ
    おまえがいなくても
    俺がいなくても
    一人で生きられる
    別々の道　進んだって
    空は繋がってるんだ
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW…

    旅立ちの時
    思い出は捨てて行け

    前しか向かねえ
    最後くらいは
    カッコつけさせてくれ
    新しい世界に
    ビビってるけど
    もう後には引けねえ
    歩いた道　振り向いたって
    風が吹いてるだけ
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW…

english translation

    Gotta face forward
    'Cause if you look to the side
    You'll notice the tears
    Gazing into the distance
    And gritting my teeth
    I'll take this path!

    I met you
    And we hung out all the time
    We struggled against
    The days of our youth
    Because we knew
    That the important
    Things in life
    Lie in the future

    Even if we're having fun right now
    It can't go on forever
    We can't cling to it

    Gotta face forward
    At least, in the end
    Let me go out with dignity
    My new world
    Scares me, but
    There's no going back now
    Even if I look back on the road I walked
    All I see is the wind blowing
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW...

    The night my relationship
    Fell apart
    I stood on the swing
    Like when I was a kid
    When I shouted obscenities
    In a loud voice
    You were right there next to me
    And your kindness pierced through me

    No matter how hard it gets
    The sadness can't last forever
    Let's live strong

    Gotta face forward
    When it's time to say goodbye
    Let's believe in tomorrow
    Even if you're not there
    Even if I'm not there
    We'll survive
    Though we're going down separate roads
    They're connected by the sky
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW...

    When it's time to set off
    Cast out your memories

    Gotta face forward
    At least, in the end
    Let me go out with dignity
    My new world
    Scares me, but
    There's no going back now
    Even if I look back on the road I walked
    All I see is the wind blowing
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) WOW (WOW)
    WOW (WOW) YES! WOW...
