Sameta hitomi de
Kocchi wo minaide
Ase mizu tarashite
Seiippai no tsumori desu
Tadatada tsuitenai nanika ga tsuitenai
Taimingu nogasu evuridei
Un mo jitsuryoku tte sorya mata hidoi ne
Narihibikasete mitai
Ano suzu no oto wo
Nerau One shot sa dame yo shouhai
Ichi ka bachi ka kakete mita

Do dekai atari wo choudai
Koyoi douka mukui wo to

Yatsu ni natta oboe wa nai
Tadatada nanika ga nanika ga hoshikute
Hashi kara hashi made sagashita
Ima koko ga yamaba iwayuru shounenba
Sukuwareru you na kotoba wa motometenai

English translation
With cold eyes
Not looking this way
Dripping with sweat
I'm doing my best
Just unlucky, something is unlucky
Missing the timing every day
Luck and skill, that's just cruel
I want to make that bell ring
The sound of that bell
Aiming for one shot, let destiny decide the outcome
Taking a gamble, risking it all
A ladder game
Give me a huge hit
Tonight, please give me retribution
Divine retribution
Ladder game
Divine retribution
Whenever I open my mouth
It's like the howl of a loser
I don't remember becoming
Someone who complains and whines
Just something, I want something
I've searched from end to end
Now is the climax, the so-called pivotal moment
I'm not seeking words that would save me
Aiming for one shot, let destiny decide the outcome
Taking a gamble, risking it all
A ladder game
Give me a huge hit
Tonight, please give me retribution
Divine retribution
Ladder game
Divine retribution
Aiming for one shot, let destiny decide the outcome
Taking a gamble, risking it all
A ladder game
Give me a huge hit
Tonight, please give me retribution
Divine retribution
Ladder game
Divine retribution
Crying and laughing again today
As long as I'm alive
Life is a grand prize
Japanese lyrics
冷めた瞳で
こっちをみないで
汗水垂らして
精一杯のつもりです
ただただツイてない 何かがツイてない
タイミング逃すエヴリデイ
運も実力ってそりゃまたひどいね
鳴り響かせてみたい
あの鈴の音を
狙うOne shot さだめよ勝敗
一か八か賭けてみた
アミダクジ
どデカいアタリを頂戴
今宵どうか報いをと
カミダノミ
アミダクジ
カミダノミ
口を開けば
負け犬の遠吠え
弱音吐くような
やつになった覚えはない
ただただ何かが 何かが欲しくて
端から端まで探した
今ここが山場 いわゆる正念場
救われるような言葉は求めてない
狙うOne shot さだめよ勝敗
一か八か賭けてみた
アミダクジ
どデカいアタリを頂戴
今宵どうか報いをと
カミダノミ
アミダクジ
カミダノミ
狙うOne shot さだめよ勝敗
一か八か賭けてみた
アミダクジ
どデカいアタリを頂戴
今宵どうか報いをと
カミダノミ
アミダクジ
カミダノミ
今日も泣き笑い
生きてる限り
人生大当たり
