"Breaking news. We are bringing you today's top headlines. "Bzzzt..." has launched a military invasion. This marks the outbreak of a world war."

This voice isn’t mine, it’s a mask I wear

伝えるたび、僕は消えていく

I speak for the world, but not for myself

ホンネは、ニュースにならない

I pause before the line

My truth stays behind

Just one word I can't set free

I don’t care about war or weather

Politics, celebrity deaths— whatever

どうでもいいよ 世界のニュース

僕が言いたいのは たったひとこと

All I wanna say on air tonight

Is I love you, and that’s my right

Tragedy after tragedy

そのたび心が何かを失くす

I read the lines but I feel the cracks

My soul bleeds between the facts

I grip the desk so tight

My hands, they shake in spite

Of every calm I fake on screen

Headlines scream, but I go numb

Another lie, and I become

この声は誰のもの?

心が叫んでる「愛してる」

A voice without a soul to give

But all I want is love to live

(Lies! Lies!)

(Read them all! Read them all!)

(Break the truth behind the wall!)

(What’s the point of “breaking news”?)

(If I can’t say I love you!)

(He’s not a man, he’s just a mic!)

(Say the line, don't start a fight!)

But I want to—

No! You must!

Just read the news! Don’t say "I love you"!

「愛は、ニュースにならない。

でも、僕らの心にはある」

My truth is not a headline

It's not a breaking story

It’s just three words I never said

And it’s getting heavy

I'm a puppet in a perfect suit

Framing chaos as something cute

I say “good evening” with a smile

While my own voice's on trial

I read of fire, floods and war

But never say what I long for

Behind the mic, beneath the lie

I’m just a man who wants to cry

I don’t care about war or weather

Politics, celebrity deaths — whatever

どうでもいいよ 世界のニュース

僕が言いたいのは たったひとこと

All I wanna say on air tonight

Is I love you, and that’s my right

Headlines scream, but I go numb

Another lie, and I become

この声は誰のもの?

心が叫んでる「愛してる」

A voice without a soul to give

But all I want is love to live

僕はもう嘘を読みたくない

誰かの言葉じゃ足りない

本当に言いたいのは、たったひとこと

愛してる、それだけが真実

(Lies! Lies!)

(Read them all! Read them all!)

(Break the truth behind the wall!)

(What’s the point of “breaking news”?)

(If I can’t say I love you!)

(He’s not a man, he’s just a mic!)

(Say the line, don't start a fight!)

But I want to—

No! You must!

Just read the news!

“I love you... finally.”
