Lyrics:
Hey, can you remember the day you were born?
The first lines in the script?
The stage goes around, the play continues,
And in the backstage, Santa Maria isn’t there
I can’t sing that first and last song well,
Yet the directors keep their silence
The end of the script hasn’t been written
As if in prayer, I opened my mouth
“In the future 1,000 years from now, we’re not alive;
Friend, no matter what day it is, know that I love you…”
Someone is waiting, for our story…
A large machine that’s lost its spine
Beautifully straddles the city
The stalls collapse, the lights come down,
The audience looks on coldly
Like a line-up, the play continues, and new sheep go astray even now
As long as possible, let’s sing songs; the film continues to go around
“In the future 1,000 years from now, we’re not alive;
Friend, no matter what day it is, know that I love you…”
“The loneliness you have, it will surpass faraway times,
Waiting for the day it can save someone else, always…”
(Someone is waiting, for our story…)
