[Intro]
I, we, have always lived in a world where we are all alone.
Every time we touch the world next to us, we realize and remember.
Huh-ahh

[Verse 1]
When we were young, we were protected by our innocence.
We called each other by name and promised to live tomorrow.
It seemed like the world was one.

[Pre-Chorus]
The things we couldn’t understand and couldn’t forgive each other increased one by one.

Every time that happened, I even stopped expecting to be able to be together.

[Chorus]
I, we, have always lived in different worlds.
Just when we thought we were getting closer, we were separated.
Every time that happened, we realized we were all alone.
The reason I, we, still long for someone is because I’m not mature enough to accept my loneliness and live my life.
Ah-ahh

[Verse 2]
The same scenery painted in different colors on the wall at the back of the classroom. We are all different, and there is no overlap without even a slight difference.

[Interlude]
The self-satisfaction that resembles love, measured by how far we are from the ideal we imagine, has gone too far. Every time I check, I get tired of it. Every time I seek, I become selfish. Every time I lose, I become cowardly.

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t want more than I do now, so don’t go farther than you are now. I thought that maintaining an ambiguous distance like that was what it meant to become an adult.

[Breakdown]
I, I, I’m just running away from being hurt. In reality, I just want to believe even now.

[Chorus]
I, we, we’ve always lived in a different world. So we hold hands, exchange words, and deceive each other into thinking that we’re not alone. Someday Someday, wrapped up in this immature loneliness, if I could become kinder to the extent of the loneliness and pain I felt, if I could trust people,
[Outro] Everyone, you and I, has always been alone, wanting to understand each other, our hearts that were close together, touched, and for a moment, the world seemed as one
