---

A nice boy with nothing but his desires to show off
Today too you must feel like the hero of the streets
Parading around in those trendy clothes
And as you strut through the crowd
You can’t help but gaze at girls with pretty legs
You’ve got no dreams and no money
All you can do is go with the flow

You go and make a fool of those who believe your empty words

Some people will just believe anything they’re told
After all there are those who are street-smart
And there are others who are simple-minded

It’s a flashy city for empty souls to dance in

If you give up your empty talk you might actually obtain something for yourself
There exists no right thing to do when in love
Not even in those passionate stories you see on TV
But if you just focus on your appearance
There’s no way you’re gonna get some action

Even if you tell me to play along with it
This is just a strategy game that leaves nothing behind
At this point I don’t know what to do
I might just get crushed, oh

The thing we call youth, it doesn’t last that long

Sorrow may arrive at any given time
But if I can still find something new for myself
It won’t matter if a grey afternoon hides behind the curtains
If I can live without losing faith, I’ll be okay

Even the thrill might one day turn into fear
I’ll just have to keep living through my ordinary days
People tell me that this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance
And if I want a future, I must keep running
