Gomen Ne, Iiko Ja Irarenai.

Before the chime rings, the gray eyes of the adults who slipped through
Down the slope with meaningless conversations uninterrupted

Without going anywhere, without even a destination
Just me, right now
Ignoring any advice
Let me do as I please for a while

Sorry, I'm not the honor student depicted in the picture
Unbuttoning two buttons on my shirt
The shortcut in the alley, sweet temptations on the way
Tonight, I'll tell you my secret that I haven't told anyone yet

It's always a foolish story that I'm the most correct
Living alone as manipulated by the textbook

You won't understand anyway, there's no way you'll get it
So I won't let anyone
Give orders or sympathy
I'm done with acting all high and mighty

I won't become the adult you expect
Don't just say pretty things
Behind the clown-like face and that smile
Tonight, I'll reveal the mask that no one has uncovered yet

You never stubbornly give in, such childish pride
Everyone's like that anyway, thinking they're cute, enough already

Sorry, I'm not the honor student depicted in the picture
Unbuttoning two buttons on my shirt
The shortcut in the alley, sweet temptations on the way
Tonight, I'll tell you my secret that I haven't told anyone yet
