あの日 僕がセカンドフライを上手に捕ったとして
それで今も抱えている後悔はなくなるのかな
十五年経ってもまだ捨てられない僕がいて
生活は続く 生活は続く

夕方のニュースで何処かの誰かが亡くなって
涙ぐむキャスター それでまた明日
そんなふうには取り上げられずに僕らは死ぬとして
世界は続く 何もなかったように

ほら 君の涙 始まれ21st
恵みの雨だ
僕たちの新世紀

あの日 君が心の奥底を静かに飲み込んでいれば
誰も傷つかずに丸く収まったかな
ボロボロになっても僕らは懲りずに恋をして
生活は続く 生活は続く

朝方のニュースでビルに飛行機が突っ込んで
目を伏せるキャスター そんな日もあった
愛と正義を武器に僕らは奪い合って
世界は続く 何もなかったように

ほら 君の涙 始まれ21st
恵みの雨だ
僕たちの新世紀

覚めない夢とガラクタ商品
背負い込む僕らのアイデア
冴えない詩の如何様ストーリー
それを鳴らす それを鳴らす

変わりない日々をひたすら消費
縫い繋ぐ僕らのアイデア
冴えない詩の如何様ストーリー
それを鳴らす それを鳴らす

確かな言葉が見当たらない
言い当てる言葉も見当たらない
それでも僕らは愛と呼んで
不確かな想いを愛と呼んだ

本当のことは誰も知らない
あなたのすべてを僕は知らない
それでも僕らは愛と呼んで
不確かな想いを愛と呼んだんだ

息を吸って 生命を食べて
排泄するだけの猿じゃないと言えるかい?

ほら 君の涙
さようなら旧石器
恵みの雨だ
僕たちの新世紀

ほら 君の涙
さようなら旧石器
恵みの雨だ
僕たちの新世紀


If I had expertly caught that “second fly” that day,
I wonder if the regrets I’m clinging to now would fade away.
After 15 years, there’s still a part of me that I can’t throw away,
But life goes on, life goes on…

The evening news is reporting that someone, somewhere has died.
The newscaster is fighting back tears; see you again tomorrow!
If we were to die, and no one did a feature on it,
The world would go on as if nothing had happened.

Your tears at the beginning of the 21st,
Are a blessed rain:
Our new generation.

If you had silently swallowed the depths of your heart that day,
Would you have made it through without hurting anyone in the process?
Even if we’re battered and bruised, we never stop trying to fall in love,
And life goes on, life goes on…

The evening news is reporting that a plane has crashed into a building.
The newscaster averts his eyes; there are days like this too.
Using love and justice as weapons, we steal from one another,
And the world would go on as if nothing has happened.

Your tears at the beginning of the 21st…
…are a blessed rain:
Our new generation.

A dream from which we’ll never awake and junk commodities;
An idea that we’ve burdened ourselves with.
A fraudulent story within an insipid song;
Sing it out! Sing it out!

Repetitive days of nothing but consumption;
An idea that ties us all together.
A fraudulent story within an insipid song;
Sing it out! Sing it out!

We can’t find the right words for it;
We can’t even find words that come close.
Nonetheless, we call it “love”;
We call this vague feeling “love”.

No one knows the truth;
I don’t even know everything about you.
Nonetheless, we call it “love”;
We call this vague feeling “love”.

Take in a breath and inhale life;
Can you really say you’re more than just an excreting monkey.

Your tears…
Say goodbye to the old stone tools.
…are a blessed rain:
Our new generation.

Your tears…
Say goodbye to the old stone tools.
…are a blessed rain:
Our new generation.
