[Verse 1]
安全地帯の家を出て 鞄を両手に抱えて
毎朝歩く孤独の一本道, mm
太陽が僕を見捨てて 自分の影が薄れていく
誰も気づかないけれど この胸は泣いている

[Chorus]
輝く人になりたくて
目を閉じて想像してみる
たくさん笑い 恋もしたり
きっと幸せだろう 幸せだろう

[Verse 2]
言葉が僕を見捨てて 届かぬ思いだけを残す
誰も聞こえないけれど この胸は叫んでいる

[Chorus]
輝く人になりたくて
目を閉じて想像してみる
たくさん笑い 夢も見たり
きっと幸せだろう 幸せだろう, oh

[Bridge]
鏡に映る自分が嫌いですか、好きですか?
You gotta learn to love yourself
人に見られる自分は 鏡に映る自分だから, woah

[Chorus]
輝く人になりたくて 目を閉じて想像してみる
輝く人は自分の中で
見つけ出さなきゃいけないから
透き通る瞳を逸らさないで 逸らさないで, woah
Yeah
輝く人は自分の中に 必ずいると信じてる
たくさん笑い 夢も見たり きっと幸せになれるだろう
いつの日か この僕も

[Outro]
La-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li
La-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li
La-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li
La-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li, la-la-li
Mm, mm
