Ashioto ~Be Strong Lyrics
BY  Mr.Children
ALBUM  REFLECTION {Naked}

新しい靴を履いた日は　
それだけで世界が違って見えた
昨日までと違った自分の足音が　
どこか嬉しくて
あてもなく隣の町まで　
何も考えずしばらく歩いて
「こんなことも最近はしてなかったな…」って　
ぼんやり思った

舗装された道を選んで歩いていくだけ
そんな日々
だけど　もうやめたいんだ
今日はそんな気がしてる

夢見てた未来は
それほど離れちゃいない
また一歩　次の一歩　足音を踏み鳴らせ!
時には灯りのない
寂しい夜が来たって
この足音を聞いてる　誰かがきっといる

疲れて歩けないんなら　
立ち止まってしがみついていれば
地球は回っていって　
きっといい方向へ　僕らを運んでくれる

どんな人にだって
心折れそうな日はある
「もうダメだ」って思えてきても大丈夫
もっと強くなっていける

今という時代は
言うほど悪くはない
また一歩　次の一歩　靴紐を結び直して
喜びを分かち合い
弱さを補い合い
大切な誰かと歩いていけるなら

もう怖がんないで　怯まないで　
失敗なんかしたっていい
拒まないで　歪めないで　巻き起こってる
すべてのことを真っ直ぐに受け止めたい

夢見てた未来は
それほど離れちゃいない
また一歩　次の一歩　足音を踏み鳴らせ!
例えば雨雲が
目の前を覆ったって
また日差しを探して歩き出そう
時には灯りのない
孤独な夜が来たって
この足音を聞いてる　
誰かがきっといる

The day we put on new shoes, we saw the world in a different way with just that
Our footsteps that differ from yesterday’s,
Happily for the first time in a long time,
Are heard walking to the neighboring town aimlessly without thought
And we absent mindedly thought, “Man, it’s been a while we’ve done something like this”
Just choosing the paved road and going on to walk
Those are our days but, now we’d like to stop them
That’s how we feel today
The future we dreamed of hasn’t strayed that far from us
We’ll take a step, and another step again, let our footsteps resonate
Sometimes sad nights where there are no lights pass by, Yeah
But there’s surely someone out there who hears these footsteps
If you’re to tired to walk then cling on to me
The world will keep spinning and surely it’ll bring us in the right direction
Whoever it may be, everyone has a day where the heart seems like it’ll break
Even if they think “I can’t take it anymore”, it’ll be already
They can become stronger
This present generation isn’t that bad
We’ll take a step, and again another step, and retie our shoelaces
We’ll share the joys, we’ll supplement each others weaknesses YEAH
If we can walk through nights drenched by hurricanes
Don’t be scared, don’t falter, you shouldn’t even worry
Don’t get tainted, don’t get distorted, we’ll overcome it
I want to take in every blow directly
The future we dreamed of hasn’t strayed that far from us
We’ll take a step, and another step again, let our footsteps resonate!
Even if rain clouds cover our eyes, Yeah
We’ll look for the sunlight again, and continue walking
Sometimes lonely nights without light come by, Yeah
There’s surely someone out there, listening to the sounds of these footsteps
