If we clash our selfish emotions we can't see it (yet) To catch up on the distance we fled from (see) let's go on a journey

Even if we can't see the farthest lands We just burn our lives to keep living in the present

Proof of the existence we wished for We kept our voices trembling while we brandished it No need for regret, we go hand in hand (even the dark past) We accept it and move forward Instead of choosing an answer shown to us We're aspiring a new dream (always) Let's walk along the radiant road

 * -|English=

Can't see things (yet) by hurling selfish emotions at each other Let's go on a trip (see) to make up for the distance we've run away from

Even if I can't see the furthest ends I just live the present by burning this life

The proof of my existence I longed for I've been brandishing with a trembling voice, so I don't need regrets We'll take each other's hands (and even a dark past) We'll accept and move forward Rather than choosing an answer that's been indicated to us We'll aim for a new dream (forever) So let's walk this bright path

Even paths containing veiled risks (surely) have dreams Let's search for possibilities available just for the two of us

Gaze upon the present rather than the furthest ends We still have time to change whatever end awaits us

The proof of my existence I vowed upon The sky I gazed upon alone – now that I know they weren't in vain Doesn't have to be easy We'll take each other's hand (and even a far-off future) We'll accept and move forward Rather than choosing an answer that's been indicated to us Let's walk this bright path

That night of cold winds when I cried over my cowardliness I just wanted to become stronger

The proof of my existence I've been brandishing with a trembling voice, so I don't need regrets We'll take each other's hands (and even a dark past) We'll accept and move forward Rather than choosing an answer that's indicated to us We'll aim for a new dream (forever) So let's walk this bright path

Trivia

 * An eyecatch from episode 11 was intended to replace the new eyecatch, but it's still maintained in the animation, due to respect the intention of the production committee.
