Lyrics & Composition: Masafumi Gotou
Arrangement: ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION

Why I want to spit out my creaking feelings
is because there's no other poof of my existence
My future I was sure I'd grasped
has a contradiction between "dignity" and "freedom"
Why I want to wipe away the warped afterimage
is because I see my limits there
I'm way too self-conscious, and in my window
there's no dates in last year's calendar

Erase and rewrite
the stupid ultra-fantasy
Resuscitate
that unforgettable presence
Rewrite
the meaningless imagination, too
The driving force forms you
Give your very best

We cut the budding feelings and cry
and we learn we're just ordinary after all and cry
A rotting heart
A flithy lie

Erase and rewrite
the stupid ultra-fantasy
Resuscitate
that unforgettable presence
Rewrite
the meaningless imagination, too
The driving force forms you
Give your very best
