Lyrics
Verse 1
Ringing in my head, it never dies
Tired of their whispers, hollow lies
Call it “communication,” just a game
Bouncing off the walls, it’s all the same
Pre-Chorus
I’ve made mistakes, I can’t deny
Each one broke me, left a piece to die
But through the wreckage, I still stand tall
Proud of the choices, even through the fall
Chorus
No sweet lies, I don’t need the sound
Tired of threats that keep dragging me down
I choose to run away, I keep my distance
Won’t waste my time with the wolves I leave
Verse 2
The clock they set for me won’t rewind
But I won’t let them steal more time
For all they’ve taken, I will claim
Every moment back, it’s mine to reign
Pre-Chorus
The ringing in my head won’t fade
Chains that bind me tighter every day
The more I fight, the more they hold
Chorus
No sweet lies, I don’t need the sound
Tired of threats that keep dragging me down
I choose to run away, I keep my distance
Won’t waste my time with the wolves I leave
Bridge
The ringing in my head won’t fade
These chains are not restraint, but vows I made
A bond to the past that lights my way
A bond to the past that lights my way
Final Chorus
No sweet lies, I don’t need the sound
Tired of threats that keep dragging me down
I choose to run away, I keep my distance
Won’t waste my time with the wolves I leave
Won’t waste my time with the wolves I leave

日本語訳
Verse 1
頭の中で鳴り響く音は、決して消えない
誰かのささやきや、空っぽな嘘にはもう疲れた
「会話」なんて呼んでるけど、所詮はただのゲーム
壁に跳ね返る声、結局みんな同じ
Pre-Chorus
確かに私は間違いもした
そのたびに壊れて、何かを失った
それでも瓦礫の中で、私はまだ立っている
転んでも、自分の選択を誇りに思ってる
Chorus
甘い嘘はいらない、その音ももう要らない
脅しの言葉ばかりで、引きずられるのはもう御免
私は逃げることを選ぶ、距離感が大切なんだ
群れの中の狼たちに、もう時間はやらない
Verse 2
彼らに奪われた時間は、もう巻き戻せない
でもこれ以上、時間を奪わせはしない
奪われたものを、私は取り戻す
一瞬一瞬を、自分の手で支配するんだ
Pre-Chorus
頭の中の響きは、消えることがない
鎖は日々、私を締めつけていく
抗えば抗うほど、それらは強くなる
Chorus
甘い嘘はいらない、その音ももう要らない
脅しの言葉ばかりで、引きずられるのはもう御免
私は逃げることを選ぶ、距離感が大切なんだ
群れの中の狼たちに、もう時間はやらない
Bridge
頭の中の響きは、消えることがない
この鎖は束縛じゃなく、私が自分に誓った証
自分を裏切らないという約束
過去との絆が、私の道を照らしてくれる
Final Chorus
甘い嘘はいらない、その音ももう要らない
脅しの言葉ばかりで、引きずられるのはもう御免
私は逃げることを選ぶ、距離感が大切なんだ
群れの中の狼たちに、もう時間はやらない
もう、狼たちに時間はやらない
