NO.2

Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
I hate myself when I'm like this
I hone my intuition
I can't move quite easily
Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
Sometimes, I hate myself
I hone my intuition
Because some day I will surpass the NO.2

A big flower bud that is late to bloom
Waiting for the time when she'll be allowed
to let out her first cry, a princess who cannot even put her feelings into words

Yet already I feel annoyed from time to time
I'm fed up with being in this position
Even if it's me who's supposed to live
in that multicolored castle
"What kind is it, which one is bigger?"
I heard this a lot
I wonder if my unfortunate self will always stay as "unfortunate"
I don't wanna be a loser
To eat or to be eaten, fighting it at the critical moment
I wanna be a ruler
I'll go against my cruel fate with all my power
For just a bit more, I'll continue my efforts which will be repaid;
that's why it has meaning
Gonna be a ruler, don't be a loser
Viva survival! Going on with grace

At the place where I was aiming at,
suddenly, he was there, but
Surely someday the world will smile at me

Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
I hate myself when I'm like this
I hone my intuition
I can't move quite easily
Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
Sometimes, I hate myself
I hone my intuition
Because some day I will surpass the NO.2

If I'm NO.2, then I'll do as NO.2
Same as that perfectly round moon
While looking at it, if I feel regretful
I shall turn into raging fire
In order to surpass NO.2
I will go until I exhaust entirely
The surrender of that castle is really close
When my launcher hits it, I shall turn into raging fire

Nanananana...
I cannot win, no matter how much time passes
Somehow the sky doesn't clear, yet
But I won't be defeated, even if I become reduced to bones
I should do it, I should not stop

At the place where I was aiming at,
suddenly, he was there, but
Surely someday the world will smile at me

There is no way that I will go at it slowly,
I still want to stay as me who can win
Everyday it's like a life in constant anxious battle
I'm only praying for a bright future
I tried my best in order to surpass you
At the other side of the night sky, humming
The truth is I was just a tiny bit lazy
If it went wrong, I blamed it on the fate that I cannot win
Where is the true enemy? He is not far, he is near
Looking about and faltering at home
I was always by my own side
From the bottom of my heart I want to grasp the number one
If so, let's continue the hunter run
I have to keep going even when there is not a single soul around
RAN RAN RAN RAN

If I'm NO.2, then I'll do as NO.2
Same as that perfectly round moon
While looking at it, if I feel regretful
I shall turn into raging fire
In order to surpass NO.2
I will go until I exhaust entirely
The surrender of that castle is really close
When my launcher hits it, I shall turn into raging fire

Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
I hate myself when I'm like this
I hone my intuition
I can't move quite easily
Today too, I'm resigned to being a NO.2
Sometimes, I hate myself
I hone my intuition
Because some day I will surpass the NO.2
