Boku dake ga Inai Machi

When I get bigger, big enough to go somewhere by myself, I want to go to a land that’s far away. I want to go to a faraway island. I want to go to an island that has no people. I want to go to an island that has no pain or sadness. On that island, I can climb a tree when I want to climb, swim in the sea when I want to swim, and sleep when I want to sleep. When I think about the town without me, I feel a sense of relief.

The essence of good deeds and evil is the same. They’re both no more than a person’s actions to make up for a defect in themselves.

Thinking it’s your fault after the fact is just pointless.

To get what you want, you put up with something, make an effort, learn a skill, and inspire yourself.

The words are just an excuse that come to my mind then disappear.

Thinking it’s your fault after the fact is just pointless. Everyone has their own limitations.
