english:

walking proud

my lips told a lie

for a trivial reason
i suppose it was for no one else
but only to protect me
when i was thoughtless

when i noticed, i was trapped and at a loss

surrounded by countless lies

(*) the sky i looked up at was beautiful

i thought of you
i wished i could walk with firm steps
facing forward like you

but i escaped from the reality

escaped from all the pain
i said to myself
"i'll be my ideal self some day
though i'm far from that now"

after such excuses, my eyes were opened

what i could do was only to live in the present time

(**) does this voice reach you?

does it ring in your heart?
i'm walking on today
looking at your back as a guidepost to live

(*) repeat
(**) repeat
