A novel I liked ten years ago, one that will never be opened
+
This is my 'self,' dressed up with showy pretensions
+
Words from borrowed great figures
+
I scoff at those who speak with smug pride
+
But even the 'self' you shelved away
+
It's the same thing, really
+
Truthfully, I knew it; resetting my heart now
+
I am the one who must let go of myself
+
I firmly told myself in my heart
+
Even if I'm pointed at behind my back, I'll keep facing forward, right?
+
The footprints the world has left behind
+
It's better to carve them than to trace them
+
If it's the path I believed in
+
I can go on without hesitation, right? It's okay
+
Now that we've become adults, sharing is a hassle,
+
In place of becoming empty, we won't be fulfilled either
+
The words arranged just to get by in the moment
+
I'm the one who always regrets them
+
I want you to notice, because the true me is there

The dust-covered 'self'
+
A bookmark still wedged in
+
When opened, nostalgic words reset themselves now
+
I am the one who must let go of myself
+
No one's words can move me
+
Even if I'm pointed at behind my back, I'll keep facing forward, right?
+
Even in a world where there are no right answers
+
Problems overflow endlessly
+
Surely there are no mistakes
+
I can go on without hesitation, right? It's okay
+
The self I've guarded to avoid getting hurt
+
The armor of theories I've layered on
+
Has become heavy armor, making movement impossible
+
Cast off the rusted words and head toward a dazzling tomorrow
+
I am the one who must let go of myself
+
I firmly told myself in my heart
+
Even if I'm pointed at behind my back, I'll keep facing forward, right?
+
The footprints the world has left behind
+
It's better to carve them than to trace them
+
If it's the path I believed in
+
I can go on without hesitation, right? It's okay
