完璧な計算で造られた楽園で
ひとつだけ うそじゃない 愛してる
どうして ねぇコンピューター
こんなに 苦しいの
あー どうして おかしいの
コンピューターシティ

雲と雲の間を突き抜けて
誰も見たことのない場所へ
夢の中で描いていた場所へ
ありふれた スピードを超えて
もうすぐ 変わるよ 世界が
もうすぐ 僕らの 何かが 変わるよ

完璧な計算で造られたこの街を
逃げ出したい 壊したい
真実は あるのかな
完璧な計算で造られた楽園で
ひとつだけ うそじゃない 愛してる

どうして ねぇコンピューター
こんなに 苦しいの
あー どうして おかしいの
コンピューターシティ

絶対故障だ てゆうかありえない
僕が 君の言葉で 悩むはずはない

記憶と記憶の間たどって
誰も見たことのない場所へ
夢の中で描いていた場所へ
ありふれた スピードを超えて
もうすぐ 変わるよ 世界が
もうすぐ 僕らの 何かが 変わるよ

完璧な計算で造られたこの街を
逃げ出したい 壊したい
真実は あるのかな
完璧な計算で造られた楽園で
ひとつだけ うそじゃない 愛してる
