Duty Lyrics

Edit
誰もが探して　欲しがっているもの
「それ」はいつかの　未来にあると
僕も皆も　思い込んでいるよね
なのにねまさか過去にあるだなんて
一体どれ程の人間気付けるだろう
予想もつかない

確かにひとつの時代が終わるのを
僕はこの目で見たよ
だけど次が自分の番だって事は
知りたくなかったんだ

そうだねもう少し　噛み砕いてみて
伝えたなら「それ」は記憶を
ただ繋げて　並べただけって事に
なるよねだとしたなら　誰もが皆
知らないウチに手にしているのだろうから
気付いて欲しいよ

確かにひとつの時代が終わるのを
僕はこの目で見たよ
そして次は自分の番だって事も
知っている本当は

君なら見つけてくれるだろう
君なら見つけてくれると
信じて賭けてみるよ

確かにひとつの時代が終わるのを
僕はこの目で見たよ
だけど次が自分の番だって事は
知りたくなかったんだ

Everyone is convinced
that that "thing" they're searching
for is in the future.
But how many people have realized
that "it" is actually in the past?
I can't even guess.

I saw the end of an era
with my own eyes.
But I didn't want to know
that it's my turn next.

If, after simplifying it
a bit more, you think that "it"
merely connects and arranges memories,
then wouldn't everyone
already have "it?"
I want you to realize that.

I saw the end of an era
with my own eyes.
And in truth, I actually
do know that it's my turn next.

You'll find me, won't you?
I'm betting that
you'll find me.

I saw the end of an era
with my own eyes.
But I didn't want to know
that it's my turn next.
