Thinking Dogs - Sonna Kimi, Konna Boku Lyrics

All this time,
I’ve never been able to give up on you –
I followed your running figure,
As if I was chasing the sun!

Dreams that seem attainable have no value;
I prefer to attempt things people tell me are entirely impossible!
Giving up is something you can do at any time,
So even if it gets the best of me, I’m gonna keep doing my best!

Why is it that people compete, drenching themselves in sweat?
They merely want to prove their existence!

You’re always,
Running endlessly ahead of me.
Without even putting it into words,
It’s so clear to me.
I’m sure you’re living in fear of a loneliness,
That doesn’t even exist within me.
There’s no one there in the place it leads –
Only anxiety that sneaks up from behind…
But I’m right here!

Even if you lose once, that’s not the end –
Life goes on endlessly, every day a battle!
I believe that tomorrow will give birth to a new victor,
So let’s always keep our lead intact when looking to the past!

Again and again I’m hurt, getting back up each time –
I simply wanted to know my reason for being here!

No matter who you became,
I’m sure you always remembered the way I was.
Even if we can’t have a proper conversation,
I can tell just by watching you from behind.
No matter who you became,
I’m sure you always felt sympathy for the way I was.
But being able to chase after someone else is so much easier –
Our unseen future is just too far away…

Other than searching for a map,
I have no choice but to run,
At full speed… Always…
Even if my heart cries out in pain!
If I stop our legs at any point,
That dream I was keeping in sight will fade away: a mere mirage.

All this time,
I’ve never been able to give up on you –
I chased after,
Your running figure.

You’re always,
Running endlessly ahead of me.
Without even putting it into words,
It’s so clear to me.
I’m sure you’re living in fear of a loneliness,
That doesn’t even exist within me.
There’s no one there in the place it leads –
Only anxiety that sneaks up from behind…
But I’m right here!
