Lyrics
Kanji= 教室の窓越しに　ぼんやりと空に問う 何のため僕は生きているの　わかんないよ

知りたいと思わないことばかり学ばされ 気付いたら自分の言葉さえなくしてた

教科書の余白に描いた理想の僕は 大人たちの言いなりじゃない　飛ぶ鳥のような自由があって

夢を見せたくせに　叶えれる力も与えてくれないなんて　つらくなるだけだよ スカートの丈さえ決められた長さで　やりたいこともできずに　僕はどこにいるの

心の中声がする　ここにいると 空はきれいなのに Rōmaji= kyoushitsu no madogoshi ni　bonyari to sora ni tou nan no tame boku wa ikite iru no　wakannai yo

shiritai to omowanai koto bakari manabasare kizuitara jibun no kotoba saenaku shite'ta

kyoukasho no yohaku ni egaita risou no boku wa otona-tachi no iinari janai　tobu tori no you na jiyuu ga atte

yume wo misetakuse ni　kanaereru chikara mo ataete kurenai nante　tsuraku naru dake da yo SUKAATO no take sae kimerareta nagasa de　yaritai koto mo dekizu ni　boku wa doko ni iru no

kokoro no naka koe ga suru　koko ni iru to sora wa kirei na no ni English Translation= through the classroom window, I absentmindedly ask the sky what's the purpose of my life? I have no idea

things i want to know but don't think myself are all I study As I realized this, I was losing my own voice

In my textbook's margin, I wrote my ideals not to do as I'm told, but to have the freedom of a soaring bird

though I showed my dreams, my granted power and ungranted just become bitter when I can't even decide the length of my skirt or do as I'd like, where am I?

the voice in my heart answered "you're here." The sky is beautiful, though.
