Ah- 腕を伸ばしたら届きそうな数センチでも
余所見した瞬間 遠くなってしまう
ペダルを強く踏み込んでも
追い越すことは出来ずに終わったんだ
Ah- 眩しすぎて嫌いな日々だ

乾いた空気が
吹き抜ける校庭で
探してたんだよ
正しく生きる意味を

汗ばむ背中に
スプリンクラーの水浴びて
大声で叫んだら
何か変わると信じていた

青春はどこへ
隠れてしまったのか
校庭の外は
矢印が無くて怖い
それでも掴んだ
ハンドルの向きは
ただ真っ直ぐに
走り抜ける

Ah- 腕を伸ばしたら届きそうな数センチでも
余所見した瞬間 遠くなってしまう
ペダルを強く踏み込んでも
追い越すことは出来ず終わりそうで
Ah- ぼくの今を邪魔させるもんか
崩れかけの髪さえも美しいんだ

少しの勇気が
言葉に宿ったことで
忘れてたんだよ
不安に生きる日々を

これこそがアイロニー
誰かと自分比べない方が
楽かもしれないと
認めるなど有り得なかった

青春が何か
今でも分からないけど
確かな答えを
知りたくないとも思う
それでも探した
ハンドルの向きは
今日も真っ直ぐに
速度上げる

Ah- 胸を焦がすほどに必死だった数センチでも
通り過ぎ だんだん過去になってしまう
ペダルを強く踏み込むのは
追い越したこと嬉しく思ったから
Ah- ぼくの今を笑わせるもんか
この景色に言葉など要らないんだ

ブレーキをかけたのに
まだ走ってる気分で
それはきっと心が
熱に浮かされたんだろう
自転車を降りて
見えた空は雲ひとつ無い青だ
悲しいくらいに

Ah- 腕を伸ばしても届かないよ数センチでも
最初から全然違うものだった
つまり青春を目指したはずが
自己満足の旅で終わりそうで
Ah- だけど無駄になることはないさ
走り抜けた距離は確かにあるんだ

Ah- The moment you look away, even though it's just a few centimeters
It seems I could reach by reaching out my arm, you're far away...
Even if I pedal hard,
I end up just not being able to overtake all of...
Ah- the days that I hate because they're too dazzling

Inside of the schoolyard
That has a dry wind blowing through it
I've been searching high and low
For the correct meaning of life

My sweat-covered back is bathed in
The sprinkler water being sprayed
If I shouted in a loud enough voice,
I believed that something would change

Where has our youth gone?
Has it gone into hiding?
Outside of the schoolyard,
No arrows are flying and I'm afraid

Even so, I grasped on tightly
The handlebars' direction
Was straight ahead of me
As I drove through

Ah- The moment you look away, even though it's just a few centimeters
It seems I could reach by reaching out my arm, you're far away...
Even if I pedal hard,
I can't overtake it, and it seems to draw to an end
Ah- I won't let you interrupt my present moment
Even my hair that's becoming ruined is beautiful

By having a little bit
Of courage in my words
I'd forgotten
My days of living in anxiety

This is what is called irony
"It might be easier to compare
Yourself with somebody else..."
I never could admit such a thing

Even now, I really don't
Understand what youth is, but
I also don't think that
I really want to know the answer

Even so, I've searched for it
The handlebars' direction
Today, too, is straight ahead,
As I'm speeding up

Ah- Even the few centimeters that were so frantic they burned my heart
Gradually pass by and become a part of the past
I press down hard on the pedal
Because I feel so happy to have overtaken you
Ah- I won't let you laugh at my present moment
This scenery has no need for words

Even though I put on the breaks,
I still feel like I’m running
That surely must have been because
My heart had been floating in the heat

I got off my bike
And the sky I saw was a blue free from a single cloud
It made me feel so sad

Ah- You can't reach even those few centimeters even if you reach out your arm,
But from the beginning, it was totally different
In other words, I was supposed to be aiming for youth,
But it seems to end in a journey of self-satisfaction
Ah- However, it won't have been in vain
The distance that we ran through is definitely there
