romaji lyrics from animelyrics with some edits*
~Japanese Lyrics~
Itsu datte kimi wa warawaremono da
Yaru koto nasu koto tsui tenakute
ageku ni ame ni furare
Oki ni no kasa wa kaze de tonde tte
Soko no nora wa gokurousama to ashi o fundzuketetta
Itsumo doori kimi wa kiraware monoda
Nani ni mo sezutomo toozakerarete
Doryoku o shite miru kedo
Sono riyuu nante ‘nantonaku?’ de
Kimi wa tohou ni kurete kanashin deta
Nara atashi no koe o tsukaeba ii yo
Hito ni yotte wa rikai funou de
Nante mimizawari, hidoi koe datte iwareru kedo
Kitto kimi no chikara ni nareru
dakara atashi o utawasete mite
Sou kimi no kimi dake no kotoba de sa
Tsudzutte tsuranete
atashi ga sono kotoba o sakebu kara
Egaite risou o sono omoi wa dare ni mo furesasenai
Garakuta no koe wa soshite hibiku
Arinomama o bukiyou ni tsunaide
Seiippai ni oogoe wo ageru
Itsu kara ka kimi wa ninkimono da
Takusan no hito ni motehayasare atashi mo hana ga takai
Demo itsu kara ka kimi wa kawatta
Tsumetaku natte dakedo sabishisou datta
Mou kikai no koe nante takusanda
Boku wa boku jishin nanda yo tte
Tsui ni kimi wa osaekirenaku natte
atashi o kiratta
Kimi no ushiro de dareka ga iu
‘Tora no i wo karu kitsune no kuse ni’ tte
Kimi wa hitori de naitetanda ne
Kikoeru? Kono-koe
atashi ga sono kotoba o kakikesu kara
Wakatteru hontou wa kimi ga dare yori yasashii tte koto o
Garakuta no koe wa soshite utatta
Hoka no dare demo nai kimi no tame ni
Kishindeku genkai o koete
Futari wa donna ni takusan no
kotoba o omoitsuita koto darou
Dakedo ima wa nani hitotsu omoitsukanakute
dakedo nanimo kamo wakatta
‘Sou ka, kitto kore wa yume da. Eien ni samenai. Kimi to aeta, sonna yume’
Garakuta wa shiawase sou na egao o shita mama
dore dake yon demo mou ugokanai
Nozonda hazu no ketsumatsu ni kimi wa nakisakebu
‘uso darou, uso darou’ tte
sou, nakisakebu
‘Boku wa muryoku da. Garakuta hitotsu datte sukueyashinai’
Omoi wa namida ni potsuri potsuri to sono hoho o nurasu
Sono toki sekai wa totan ni sono iro o ookiku kaeru
Kanashimi yorokobi subete wo hitori to hitotsu wa shitta
Kotoba wa uta ni nari kono sekai o
futatabi kakemeguru kimi no tame ni
Sono koe ni ishi o yado shite
ima omoi ga hibiku

~English Translation~
You've always been a laughingstock
You have no luck in things you try or things you achieve,
At the end, they all dissolve into the rain
The umbrella you like flies away with the wind
I've been trampling my feet on that field with appreciation for your hard work
As usual, you're a hated person
Without any reason, they keep a distance
Although you have put your hard work
You think ‘somehow, there must be a reason’
You were at loss and sad
In that case, it is okay to use my voice
Which is impossible to be understood by people
Even if it’s called “what an ear-hurting, cruel voice”
Surely, I’ll be your power
That’s why I’ll try to sing
Yes, yours, with your very own words
Compose them, put them together
Because I’ll scream those words out
The ideals you’ve painted, I wont let anyone touch those thoughts
Then the voice of junk* will echo
Awkwardly connecting the truth
Raising the great voice with all my might
At a time, you became a famous person
Getting extravagantly praised by a lot of peoples, my nose gets high as well**
But at a time, you changed as well
You became so cold, yet seemed so lonely
“Enough, we already have a lot of mechanical voices”
"But I'm myself!" you said
At the end, you couldn't hold it in anymore
And hated me
Someone says behind your back that
“A habit of fox is borrowing the lion’s dignity***”
You cried alone, right?
Can you hear? This voice
Because I'll erase those words
I understand, that the truth is, you are kinder than everyone else
Then this voice of junk sings
For the sake of no one else but you
Passing the limits with a squeaky noise
We have so many words coming into the mind of ours, right?
But now not even a single thing comes into my mind
But I understand everything
“So that’s it, this is a dream. One that I wont be awaken from for eternity. A dream where I met you.”
The junk remained in a happy-looking smile
No matter how much you call, it cant move anymore
You cry and scream at the ending that you should have wanted
"It’s a lie, right? It’s a lie, right?" Yes, you cry and scream
“I'm powerless. I cant even save one junk.”
Your thoughts, along with your tears, wet your cheeks drop by drop
At that time, the world just changed its color greatly
Sadness, happiness, one person and one knew it all
When the words turns into song, this world
Will go round for the second time for your sake
Entrust your will into that voice
Now, those thoughts are echoing
You have no luck in things you try or things you achieve,
At the end, they all dissolve into the rain
The umbrella you like flies away with the wind
I've been trampling my feet on that field with appreciation for your hard work
As usual, you're a hated person
Without any reason, they keep a distance
Although you have put your hard work
You think ‘somehow, there must be a reason’

additional notes (just in case):
*'garakuta' literally means 'junk' or 'trash' although it can also be translated as 'odds&ends'
**this phrase means 'I'm proud as well'
***a phrase to say that the person was just acting big
