[Verse 1]
How will you walk the path before you?
Shouldering the future that you envision
If everything was just smooth sailing
I wouldn't be able to feel anything
[Verse 2]
At the usual crosswalk, beyond the street of flowers
The air still dyes my breath white
Airplane contrails race across the sky
I chased after them before they disappeared
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I sometimes get distracted
But let's go, even if we have to take a detour
The sound of us splitting food is a memory we share
I still recall the song we used to hum together
[Chorus]
I found myself entirely consumed
Searching for an alternative to saying, "Bye bye"
Our golden days leading up to adulthood
They've passed us by before we knew it
Every moment was so precious
We didn't even have time to look back on it
I still ponder the words I couldn't say back then
Like that, we become dyed in blue
[Verse 3]
Time seemed to stand still that spring
Fast forward a bit to summer
The bloom of osmanthus showed glimpses of autumn
On the way home from school, the sky howled of winter
[Pre-Chorus]
As we look up at the far-off sky
Let's lean on each other
Stuffing my cheeks with the meat bun we share
I still remember the days we used to fool around together
[Chorus]
Love eventually turned into hate
And I gave up on so many things
As I pushed on believing I was right
Even my unfounded confidence
It all fueled me to go forward
Because everything has meaning
From the depths of this blue, I wipe my tears
And take this pain with me
[Bridge]
The scenery in my dreams is nowhere to be seen
Even now, I think back
The hopes and regrets of that day
All of it is connected
So let's go to where those unwavering eyes of yours lead
[Chorus]
I found myself entirely consumed
Searching for an alternative to saying 'bye bye'
Our golden days leading up to adulthood
They've passed us by before we knew it
Every moment was so precious
We didn't even have time to look back on it
I still ponder the words I couldn't say back then
Like that, we become dyed in blue
[Outro]
That's why I can embrace the blue
And walk forward from here on out
