Romaji / Romanized / Romanization / Transliteration

Memai ga suru mainichi da
Onaji koto bakka yatteru mitai
Konna kimochi ni saseru no wa
Dareka ja nai tte wakatteru kedo

Hidoku toketa chokoreito
Amaku matowaritsuku kaori
Zenbu kirai ni naru mae ni
Koko kara nigedasu no mo warukunai

All I need is to be free
Mou koko kara suki ni sasete
All I need is to be free
Konna sekai ja waraenai wa
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Yudan sureba karappo da
Nichijou ni zutto yotta joutai
Sore wa sore de shiawase
Dakedo, kitto monotarinai mama

Machi ni tobikatta heito
Kotoba no yari ga sasatta manma
Heiki na furi shite kowareteku
Kodou wa nani wo kazoeteru?

All I need is to be free
Aa itsuka wa kiete shimau no ni
All I need is to be free
Konna sekai ja owarenai wa
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

All I need is to be free
Mou koko kara suki ni sasete
All I need is to be free
Konna sekai ja waraenai wa
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Orignal / Kanji / 歌詞

眩暈がする毎日だ
同じことばっかやってるみたい
こんな気持ちにさせるのは
誰かじゃないって分かってるけど

酷く溶けたチョコレイト
甘くまとわりつく香り
全部嫌いになる前に
ここから逃げ出すのも悪くない

All I need is to be free
もうここから　好きにさせて
All I need is to be free
こんな世界じゃ　笑えないわ
Can you hear me？
Can you hear me？

油断すれば空っぽだ
日常にずっと酔った状態
それはそれで幸せ
だけど、きっと物足りないまま

街に飛び交ったヘイト
言葉の槍が刺さったまんま
平気なフリして壊れてく
鼓動は何を数えてる？

All I need is to be free
ああ いつかは　消えてしまうのに
All I need is to be free
こんな世界じゃ　終われないわ
Can you hear me？
Can you hear me？

All I need is to be free
もうここから　好きにさせて
All I need is to be free
こんな世界じゃ　笑えないわ
Can you hear me？
Can you hear me？

English Translation

Every day feels dizzying
Doing the same things over and over again
Though I know it's not someone's fault
For making me feel like this

The chocolate has melted into a mess
Its sweet scent clinging to everything
Before I come to hate it all
Maybe it's not so bad to run away from here

All I need is to be free
Just let me do as I please from here on
All I need is to be free
In this world, I can't find laughter
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

If I let my guard down, I feel empty
Constantly intoxicated by everyday life
In a way, it's happiness
But surely, it's still not enough

Hatred flies through the streets
The spears of words piercing deep
Pretending to be okay, but breaking apart
What is my heartbeat counting?

All I need is to be free
Ah, even though someday I'll disappear
All I need is to be free
In this world, I can't find an end
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

All I need is to be free
Just let me do as I please from here on
All I need is to be free
In this world, I can't find laughter
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Official English Translation

I feel dizzy every single day
Just doing the same things over and over
I know that it's no one else
that is making me feel this way, but...

Completely melted chocolate
That scent that coils around sweetly
Before I begin to hate everything
It might be for the best to get away from here

All I need is to be free
From now on let me do what I want
All I need is to be free
In a world like this I can't smile
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Once I let my guard down it was all empty
I was just drunk on everyday life
I don't mind it too much
But I can't help but feel like it isn't enough

Hate flies around the city
Piercing me with swords made of words
I pretend I don't care, but it chips away
What is this beating counting down to?

All I need is to be free
Ah, even though someday everything will disappear
All I need is to be free
In a world like this there is no end
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

All I need is to be free
From now on let me do what I want
All I need is to be free
In a world like this I can't smile
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
