Original Romaji Translation

Dream of Butterfly, or is life a dream?
Don't wanna wake up 'cause I'm happier here

あなたがいる それだけて良かった
ただ一つの 真実だったの

だけどそれは夢で
Swaying and dissolving like bubbles in the dark ocean
気付けば誰もいない

確かなものは何にも
Reaching for the shimmering shape in vain
ここには無いと解った

うつろうこの世界 何を信じて生きればいい?

悲しみ I can't believe in you
溺れて but I cannot forget you
叫びながら あなた見た I will dig up my faith
あの夜 and march on

あなたが I cannot see ahead
いるから but I can't keep standing still
私強くなれるんだと So I will close my eyes
信じた and march on

苦しみ can't lay the blame on you
畏れて but I can not forgive you
泣きながら あなた呼んだ So drenched up in rain
あの日 I'll march on

あなたの I cannot face the sun
せいだと but I cannot dream at night
気付いた 自分の弱さ So under the moonlight
全てが I'll march on

Dream of Butterfly, or is life a dream?
Don't wanna wake up 'cause I'm happier here

Anata ga iru sore dakede yokatta
Tada hitotsu no shinjitsu datta no

Dakedo sore wa yume de
Swaying and dissolving like bubbles in the dark ocean
Kizukeba dare mo inai

Tashikana mono wo nanimo
Reaching for the shimmering shape in vain
Koko ni wa nai to wakatta

Utsurou kono sekai nani wo shinjite ikireba ii?

Kanashimi (I can't believe in you)
oborete (But I cannot forget you)
sakebinagara anata mita (I will dig up my faith)
ano yoru (And march on)

Anata ga (I cannot see ahead)
iru kara, (But I can't keep standing still)
watashi tsuyoku narerun da to (So I will close my eyes)
shinjita (And march on)

Kurushimi (Can't lay the blame on you)
osorete (But I cannot forgive you)
nakinagara anata yonda (So drenched up in the rain)
ano hi (I'll march on)

Anata no (I cannot face the sun)
sei da to, (But I cannot dream at night)
kizuita jibun no yowasa (So under the moonlight)
subete ga (I'll march on)

Dream of a butterfly, or is life a dream?
Don’t wanna wake up 'cause I’m happier here

I was glad just to have you by my side
It was the only reality I needed

But it was all just a dream
Swaying and dissolving like bubbles in the dark ocean
When I woke up, no one was really there

There is nothing certain
Reaching for the shimmering shape in vain
That, I know is true in this place

What should I believe in to live on in this ever changing world?

I’m drowning (I can’t believe in you)
in sadness (but I cannot forget you)
calling out as I saw you (I will dig up my faith)
that night (and march on)

I believed (I cannot see ahead)
that it’s because (but I can’t keep standing still)
you are by my side (So I will close my eyes)
that I could grow strong (and march on)

I was afraid (Can’t lay the blame on you)
of suffering (but I cannot forgive you)
crying as I called out to you (So drenched up in rain)
that day (I’ll march on)

I realized (I cannot face the sun)
my weaknesses (but I cannot dream at night)
are because of you (So under the moonlight)
They all are (I’ll march on)
