There's No Night that Never Dawns

Lyrics, Composition, & Arrangement: Noriyuki Makihara

There's one thing reflected in my window: Just me
about to believe that the night will never dawn as I rest my chin on my hands
If I turn off this lamp now, the world will be the same as my heart
And it'll feel like it'll be engulfed in a darkness where I can't tell what's up or down

My eyes were drawn to the collars with completely different heights
I'm wearing my shirt with my buttons done up wrong
I blame others, but have lived never once
reflecting on myself. And that's probably the true me

If I could correct
the buttons done up wrong myself
I'd ask in my heart:
"Is it still not too late?" And at that moment

A streak of light flashes
as if cutting through the darkness
and the world I live in in my heart
expands, illuminated by the morning

The reason everyone has the same mistakes
is so we can be open-minded enough to forgive others
Let's abandon all the words to blame others
from our hearts full of useless things

Morning dew sways on the tips
of my potted plants' leaves outside my window
Now I feel like I want to share
a drop of water with someone

A streak of light flashes
as if cutting through the darkness
and the world I live in in my heart
is shining, illuminated by the morning

A streak of light flashes
as if cutting through the darkness
and in the world I live in in my heart
there's no night that never dawns

I'm sure the light
won't miss the voice of this heart of mine
Akenai Yoru ga Kuru Koto wa Nai

Sakushi, Sakkyoku, & Henkyoku: Makihara Noriyuki

Mado ni utsuru nowa hitotsu hoozue wo tsukinagara
Akenai yoru wo shinjite shimaisou na boku dake
Ima kono sutando wo keseba sekai wa boku no kokoro to onaji
Ue ka shita kamo wakaranai kurayami ni nomaresou da

Amari nimo chigau takasa no erimoto ni me ga itta
Boku wa botan wo kakechigaeta mama shatsu wo kite iru
Tatoeba hito wo semetemo jibun no koto wa ichido mo
Kaerimizu ikite kita boku no hontou no sugata darou

Kakechigaeta botan wo jibun de
Tadaseta no naraba
"Ima kara demo osokunai ka" to
Kokoro ni toikaketa sono toki

Kono kurayami wo kirisaku you ni
Hikari no suji ga hashitte
Kono kokoro de ikite iku sekai ga
Asa ni terasarete hirogatte iku

Onaji you na ayamachi wo daremo ga motte iru nowa
Hito wo yuruseru hiroi kokoro wo moteru tame
Muda na mono de ippai no kokoro no naka kara
Semeru tame no kotoba wa tonikaku zenbu suteyou

Mado no soto ni ueki no ha no
Saki ni furueru asatsuyu
Itteki no mizu mo dareka to
Wakeaitai to ima omoeru

Kono kurayami wo kirisaku you ni
Hikari no suji ga hashitte
Kono kokoro de ikite iku sekai ga
Asa ni terasarete kagayaite iru

Kono kurayami wo kirisaku you ni
Hikari no suji ga hashitte
Kono kokoro de ikite iku sekai ni
Akeru koto no nai yoru wa nai

Kono kokoro no koe wo kitto
Hikari wa kikinogashi wa shinai
明けない夜が来ることはない

作詞・作曲・編曲:槇原敬之
