Sun

Lyrics, Composition, & Arrangement: Noriyuki Makihara

The rain clouds hanging over us
hid everything and tested us
saying that it'll let this rain stop
if you lie about everything you believe in

And at that time I was thinking upon
when I saw the sunset
dyeing even the fleeing clouds
driven away by the wind on that night

Beauty doesn't change
If it does change
it's just because the feelings
of those reflecting it changes

Asking for nothing, nothing changing
we'd always kept waiting
for the sun shining down on us
while struck by the rain in darkness
And so now I'm in the warm sunlight
still the same soaked me
I started to feel
that warmth again

It's not like I was able
to stay without a single doubt
Sometimes doubt can
confirm the truth

If, say, the rain clouds then
hadn't been over us
I wonder if I could've felt
these feelings stronger than before

I want to pray for someone's
happiness like I'm taking it for granted
All I need right now
is just that one thing

Asking for nothing, nothing changing
we'd always kept waiting
for the sun shining down on us
while struck by the rain in darkness

And so now I'm in the warm sunlight
I've realized for the first time
that I was feeling this warmth and taking it for granted

Have you never once
lied to yourself up until now?
Have you never passed it off
as right when it was wrong?

When I ask that, I realize
that I choose all the joys and sorrows
on my own and invite them
into my heart

Asking for nothing, nothing changing
we'd always kept waiting
for the sun shining down on us
while struck by the rain in darkness

I don't want to believe in something
that changes easily from aimless anxiety anymore
because the sun's in the sky I look up at

And that makes me so happy

Taiyou

Sakushi, Sakkyoku, & Henkyoku: Makihara Noriyuki

Bokura ni kakatta amagumo wa
Subete wo kakushi tameshita
Shinjita mono subete uso ni suru nara
Kono ame wo yamasete yaru to

Boku wa sono toki omoikaeshiteta
Ano yoru kaze ni oiyarare
Nigeru kumo sae kirei ni someru
Yuuyake wo mita koto wo

Utsukushisa wa kawaranai
Moshimo kawaru to sureba
Sore wo utsusu hito no kimochi ga
Kawaru dake dakara

Nanimo motomezu ni nanimo kawarazu ni
Itsumo bokura wo terasu taiyou wo
Kono kurayami no naka ame ni utarenagara
Zutto machitsuzuketa
Soushite ima boku wa akarui hizashi no naka de
Zubunure ni natta boku ni
Kawaranai ano nukumori wo
Mata kanjihajimete ita

Tashika ni ichido mo mayowazu ni
Irareta wake ja nai'n da
Utagu koto de hontou no koto ga
Tashikamerareru toki mo aru

Tatoeba ano toki no amagumo ga
Bokura ni kakaranakereba
- Mae yori tsuyoi kono kimochi wo
Kanjirarete ita darou ka

Dareka no tame no shiawase wo
Atarimae no you ni inoritai
Ima no boku ni hitsuyou nanowa
Tada sono hitotsu dake

Nanimo motomezu ni nanimo kawarazu ni
Itsumo bokura wo terasu taiyou wo
Kono kurayami no naka ame ni utarenagara
Zutto machitsuzuketa

Soushite ima boku wa akarui hizashi no naka de
Kono nukumori wo atarimae ni
Kanjite ita boku ni hajimete kizuita

Ima made ichido mo jibun ni
Uso wo tsuita koto wa nai ka?
Chigau noni tadashii to
Yarisugoshita koto wa nakatta ka?

Toikaketa toki boku wa kizuku
Yorokobi mo kanashimi mo
Jibun ga subete erabi kokoro ni
Manekiirete iru koto ni

Nanimo motomezu ni nanimo kawarazu ni
Itsumo bokura wo terasu taiyou wo
Kono kurayami no naka ame ni utarenagara
Zutto machitsuzuketa

Ate no nai fuan de tayasuku kawaru you na
Mono wo boku wa mou shinjitakunai
Boku no miageta sora ni taiyou ga aru kara

Sore ga totemo ureshii kara
