English Translation
The PISTOL in my chest sounds out; my heartbeats are interfering awfully with me I can’t calm down for such situations A partially solved equation; there are times when I open the next door and I must go through it

Because you shine in those unyielding thoughts I feel okay on a depressing today, at 5 seconds before success

Evermore, SPARKING NOW! Getting strong, we all have TOUGH HEARTS! If we all improve, the world will change dramatically. SPARKING NOW! Our souls we hold up high. Work until your limit to aim for a 1000%!

I thought that it was a much farther place... it's an unreachable, empty dream. “Wait, hey, wait! Is that you, father?!”

Even any small light goes unseen, for me to be even just a little closer to you... “This life, even if i lose it...I will still protect you!”

The courage deep in my heart... Tears through the darkness. They sever the doubt, these white wings. “Geez, don't think that you can do everything by yourself!”

Should you seem to stop in your tracks, I'll look now, at this smiling face, and let my heart take it in. “I don’t want to always be protected! I want to protect, too!”

So you need a BURNING HEART! Burn it as hot as you can now. Get ahead of this struggling world! BURNING HEART! The thing that lights up the darkness. It's your very own light, shining at 1000%

Evermore, SPARKING NOW! Getting strong, we all have TOUGH HEARTS! If we all improve, the world will change dramatically. SPARKING NOW! Our souls we hold up high. Work until your limit to aim for a 1000%!

So you need a BURNING HEART! Burn it as hot as you can now. Get ahead of this struggling world! BURNING HEART! The thing that lights up the darkness. It's your very own light, shining at 1000%

English dubbed version
There's a longing deep inside of my heart

So filled with passion yet it keeps us apart

That's the irony of how I've learned to love

Opportunities they come and they go

Uncertainties can make it hard to know

We can take a chance and choose to rise above

You give me strength, you shine my affections

You light the darkness that's in my life

Though there are times that I feel like giving up

I know there's reason for living today!

Our lives are sparking now

We're growing up

Our hearts are getting strong

If we wanted to

We have the power to change the world!

Sparking now

Search within your soul to find the answer

Push yourself to the edge

And give 1000%

Endlessly searching, I am still alone in this darkness.

I tried to hold on, but I lost you.

You slipped through my fingers.

Please, I need you, I need you to light my way.

Maybe they're right, maybe I'll never know where I'm going.

A warmth trails down my cheeks and I am comforted. But my sorrow turns them cold.

What if I forget you? What if I lose the memory?

Will I ever find a way to escape this hollowness that binds me?

Is this my fate? Is this love forbidden by destiny?

No, our lives can be our own design, together, we can light the fire.

And when the darkness fades away, the only future in my sight will be you.

So take this burning heart, light the fire, let the passion burn

If we light the path to help create a better world

Burning hearts, light the way,

Help us find the answers

Push yourself to the edge,

Give 1000%
