Lights

Lyrics, Music & Arrangement: Joe Inoue

If you wake up from a deep sleep in darkness
And your hands are spread, get moving
And grip the light

Blinded by victory
You lost your true self

Show me
Facing towards some place
Do I just have to advance towards something?

Bad dream
I have bad dreams

Too deep
And keep getting depressed

Save me
At the very end
The one who can save oneself

Only
It's only yourself who can do that
The guy who gave up believing in things
Won't have a tomorrow

If you wake up from a deep sleep in darkness
And your hands are spread, get moving
And grip the light

Around here, talent it a nonsense
Keep art simply watered down
Big news worthy of attention
Sadly, will not make it to your ears

Chances kept on deceasing
Garbage kept on increasing
What will I do with this mess?
Bunch them up and burn them all away

Today

You may grip your dreams
So you cannot worry, NO!

The chart is fake

Just leave it all up to me and I'll do it
Trust me for once
Let me be me, and I'll grasp my dreams!

Don't you tell me
What you want me to love, hate and /or believe
Nobody knows better about myself other than me
I will chose on my own
With the help of my colleagues

LIGHTS

Sakushi, Sakkyoku & Henkyoku: Inoue Joe

Yami no naka de fukai nemuri kara mezame
Sono te hirogeta no nara ugokidase
Soshite hikari wo tsukami tore

Shouri ni me ga kurande
Shouki wo ushinatta n da

Show me
Doko ni mukatte
Nani ni mukatte susumeba ii?

Bad dream
Akumu ni unasare

Too deep
Shizumi tsudzukeru

Save me
Saigo no saigo ni
Onore wo sukui daseru nowa

Only
Jibunjishin de shikanai
Shinjiru koto wo akirameta yatsu ni
Asu wa nai

Yami no naka de fukai nemuri kara mezame
Sono te hirogeta no nara ugokidase
Soshite hikari wo tsukami tore

Around here, talent is a nonsense
Keep art simply watered down
Big news worthy of attention
Sadly, will not make it to your ears

Chances kept on deceasing
Garbage kept on increasing
What will I do with this mess?
Bunch them up and burn them all away

Today

You may tsukamu yume
So you cannot kenen, NO!

The chart is fake

Just leave it all up to me and I'll do it
Trust me for once
Let me be me, and I'll grasp my dreams!

Don't you tell me
What you want me to love, hate and /or believe
Nobody knows better about myself other than me
I will chose on my own
With the help of my colleagues
