[Intro]
We are, we are
We are, we are

[Verse 1]
They think that we're no one
We`re nothing, not sorry
They push us
It’s too late, it’s too late
Not going back

[Pre-Chorus 1]
夢は終わり目を覚ます時
(Yume wa owari me o samasu toki)
絶望や希望も同時に
(Zetsubou ya kibou mo dōjini)
目を覚ました
(Me o samashi ta)
鏡に映った僕が問いかける
(Kagami ni utsutta boku ga toikakeru)
自分を誤魔化し
(Jibun o gomakashi)
生きることに意味はあるか
(Ikiru koto ni ji wa aru ka)

[Chorus]
When you’re standing on the edge
So young and hopeless
Got demons in your head
We are, we are
No ground beneath your feet
Not here to hold you
‘Cause we are, we are
The colors in the dark

[Verse 2]
酷く痛む鼓動は早く
(Hidoku itamu kodō wa hayaku)
遠のく景色を
(Tōnoku keshiki o)
この手で掴もうとした
(Kono te de tsukamo u to shita)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
They are the weakest
And don’t even know
Anything they say
Will never break our hearts of gold

[Chorus]
When you’re standing on the edge
So young and hopeless
Got demons in your head
We are, we are
No ground beneath your feet
Not here to hold you
‘Cause we are, we are
The colors in the dark

[Bridge]
Never tell yourself
You should be someone else
Stand up tall and say
I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid
So never tell yourself
You should be someone else
Stand up tall and say
I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid

[Chorus]
When you’re standing on the edge
So young and hopeless
Got demons in your head
We are, we are
No ground beneath your feet
Not here to hold you
‘Cause we are, we are
The colors in the dark

ONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK is a Japanese band with a punk-rock/hard rock style. As of 2018, the band comprises of Takahiro Moriuchi (vocals), Toru Yamashita (lead guitar), Ryota Kohama (bass), and Tomoya Kanki (drums).

The band’s name, ONE OK ROCK, comes from “one o'clock,” the time that the band used to practice on weekends. They chose this time because the rehearsal space was cheaper at this time. However, since the Japanese language made no distinction between R’s and L’s, they changed “O'CLOCK” to “O'KROCK,” which was then separated to become “OK ROCK”.

The band was formed by Toru when he was in high school. At the time the band was formed (2005), they neither had Taka on vocals nor Tomoya on drums. Both were in other bands at the time, and ONE OK ROCK was born when Toru recruited them into his band.
