何のために生きているのか
教科書には書いてない
楽な人生 コンビニで買えるはずもない
私ひとり つらいときは
みんな同じ つらいんだね
なりたい自分探してたら ふいに
君の涙に気づいた
どんな私になれるだろう？
夢があるの、カタチのない…
いつか きっと つかもう
信じる青春 まんまんなか！
誰かをまね 誰かと比べ
背伸びしてみるよりも
自分らしくと焦るけど いつもカラ回り
ずっと携帯見てる放課後
空の色も 忘れそうだよ
口に出すと うまく言えないから
指先だけがおしゃべり
どんな私になれるだろう？
泣いたり笑うこころ すっぴんでいたい
君がもしも くじけそうなら
そっと この手 つなごう
越えてく青春 まんまんなか！
どんな私になれるだろう？
夢があるの、カタチのない…
いつか きっと つかもう
信じる青春 まんまんなか！

What do we live for?
The answer isn't written in any textbook
And there's no way you can just go out and buy a comfortable life at the convenience store
When I'm alone and having a tough time
Everyone else is having just as hard a time too, huh
While searching for the kind of "me" that I wanted to become, suddenly
I noticed your tears
What kind of "me" will I become?
I'm not a circle or a square, all I can be is me
I do have dreams, but they lack shape...
I'm certain I'll grab hold of them one day
I believe! I'm right in the middle of youth!

Rather than copy someone else or compare myself to others
Pushing myself to grow up faster,
I'm impatient to do it "my way" but I always end up going in circles
I spend all my time after school staring at my phone
It feels like I'm starting to forget even what color the sky is
I'm bad at expressing things out loud, so
It's only my fingertips that chatter away
What kind of "me" will I become?
I want this heart that both cries and laughs to stay natural, with no makeup on
If you ever feel you're growing weak,
Quietly grab onto my hand
We'll keep pushing through the middle of youth!

Official Translation[]
Why do we live?
The answers are not written in textbooks
You can't just buy an easy life at the convenience store, either
When I'm alone and feeling low
Everyone else is hurting, too
While pursuing my ideal self
I suddenly noticed your tears
What kind of person can I be?
I'm not this or that; I'm just me
I have a dream but a vague one...
Someday, I'll be able to achieve it
I believe it; I'm in the middle of youth!
Copying someone and comparing myself to somebody else
Rather than pretending to be older and cooler
I impatiently try to just be myself but I always screw up in the end
I'm constantly staring into my phone after school
I just might forget the color of the sky
I can't explain very well by speaking
So my fingertips do all the talking
What kind of person can I be?
I want my heart to laugh, to cry, to be make-up free
If you feel like giving up
Just hold my hand
Growing up in the middle of youth!
What kind of person can I be?
I'm not this or that; I'm just me
I have a dream but a vague one...
Someday, I'll be able to achieve it
I believe it; I'm in the middle of youth!
