The shooting star I entrusted my wishes to as a child, where are you flying towards now?
Are you still traveling the skies while holding my hopes tightly in your arms?
The night sky seen from the rooftop, has it changed too? Just like the me of that day
Even now, I still struggle down here on Earth, never getting tired
Answer me, Shooting Star, that self of mine from the distant past who believes in me, can my voice reach him?
Even though I was not able to come all this way as smoothly as you expected, if we are to meet again
I will jump onto your back and fly away, I am a Star Rider
As the yawning of the cat ceases, I pull down gently on the string of the crescent light
Inside this darkness, the heartbeats I hear resemble Morse code, drumming out a message to myself
A vertical jump, 0.5 seconds in the air, 20 centimeters off the ground, sorry for being so uncool
But even so, I can confidently say that I got a little closer to the sky, right?
Seen through the out-of-focus telescope is regret, and the me from yesterday who floats in a grey scenery
So why not close our eyes and paint out the world we wanted to see in our heart
Without letting anyone get in our way
Come, it’s time to leave now, before promise becomes another name for lies
When I am losing sight of the way, you would always guide me with your twinkling light, as if saying “Catch up with me if you can”
Answer me, Shooting Star, that self of mine from the distant past who believes in me, can my voice reach him?
Let’s take off towards that yet unseen world now, I am a Star Rider
