Title: Nightmare Very Easy
by AriteAL

「Nightmare Very Easy」は、怠惰や不安に閉じ込められた日常から抜け出すために、“小さな行動”が持つ可能性を歌詞にしてみました。
ほんの一歩踏み出すことで、ナイトメアモードが意外なほどベリーイージーに変わるかもしれない――そんな期待を込めています。うまくいかない日常を打破し、思わず笑顔になるきっかけになれたら嬉しいです。

“Nightmare Very Easy” is a song about the power of small actions to break free from a daily routine weighed down by laziness and anxiety. We hope that taking even a single step can transform your so-called “nightmare mode” into something surprisingly easy. May it inspire you to shake off that lingering sense of stagnation and find a bit of lightness in your everyday life.

目覚ましが鳴る前に　目を開けたはずなのに
結局ベッドの中で　何もしないまま
「今日こそ変わろう」なんて　夜の自分が言ったけど
朝焼けに溶かされた　意志は行き場を失う

やればいいと　知っているのに
時間は言い訳を　積み重ねてくだけ
沈んだ思いが　また増して
鏡の前で　ため息ばかり

Nightmare Very Easy
Maybe it’s all in my head, I'm just too scared to try
Nightmare Very Easy
A single step could break the spell, revealing how it's not so high
立ち止まるたび　暗闇が深く染み渡るけれど
踏み出す勇気は　まだ消えてないから

Ah-ah…
(Nightmare Very Easy)
Ah-ah…
(Could I break this fear inside?)

靴を磨く暇があるなら　スマホを眺めていたい
落ちてるゴミに手を伸ばすより　SNSで愚痴をこぼす
「大丈夫？」の一言だけで　誰かが救われるかもと
知りながら　スルーする自分を笑えなくなってる

募金箱に財布のはすうを入れるだけだって
本当は　大げさな苦労なんかいらないのに
まるでゲームのクエストみたいと　バカにしてきた行動が
実は未来への鍵かもしれない

投げやるたびに　目の前を過ぎるチャンス
「動けば？」と囁く声が　頭にこだまする
いつの日か　この弱ささえ笑えるなら
少しだけでも　動いてみたい

思い切って　埃まみれの靴を擦ってみた
コンビニの募金箱へ　少しだけ硬貨を落としてみた
馬鹿馬鹿しいと笑ってた　その行為が
ほんのり心を　解き放つ
Nightmareに染まってた世界が
すぐ隣で　Easyに変わりはじめてる

Nightmare Very Easy
Fear once chained me down, but now the light is clear to see
Nightmare Very Easy
One tiny move, and suddenly I’m standing where I wished to be
大きな目標(ゴール)じゃなくても　ちゃんと前に進むたび
暗かった景色に　小さな光が射しこむ

Ah-ah…
Nightmare Very Easy
(Our journey goes on and on)
Ah-ah…
Nightmare Very Easy
(Step by step, we seize tomorrow)

I swear I woke before the alarm could ring
But stayed in bed, too numb to do anything
I told myself, “Today I’ll change,” just late last night
Yet morning’s glow dissolved that vow, leaving it out of sight

I know a tiny effort’s all I really need
But excuses pile up day by day, I concede
A sinking feeling settles deep inside my chest
In front of the mirror, I sigh at my own unrest

Nightmare Very Easy
Maybe it’s all in my head; I’m just too scared to try
Nightmare Very Easy
A single step could break the spell, revealing it’s not so high
Each time I freeze in place, the darkness seeps in deeper
Yet the spark of courage, it hasn’t disappeared

Ah-ah… (Nightmare Very Easy)
Ah-ah… (Could I break this fear inside?)

If I had time to shine my shoes, I’d rather scroll my phone
Instead of picking up some trash, I vent online alone
A single “Are you okay?” might save somebody’s day
But knowing that, I still look away, can’t laugh my apathy away

Dropping spare change into a tiny donation box—
I claimed it took no effort, yet refused it with my thoughts
I mocked it like some trivial quest in a silly game
But maybe that small act holds tomorrow’s key all the same

Each time I throw it all away, a chance slips past my eyes
A whisper in my head repeats, “Go on, just give it a try”
If someday I can laugh at how I doubted all this time
I’ll gather just a little nerve to take one step in line


I worked up nerve to wipe the dust from these old shoes
Dropped a little change in the store’s donation box, too
I used to laugh and call such gestures foolish or unwise
But gently, they unshackled me—what a sweet surprise
The world I painted Nightmare now reveals another face
Right beside me, it shifts to something Easy in its place

Nightmare Very Easy
Fear once chained me down, but now the light is clear to see
Nightmare Very Easy
One tiny move, and suddenly I’m standing where I wished to be
Even without a grand ambition, each step that I take
Lets a little light shine through this gloom I can’t shake

Ah-ah…
Nightmare Very Easy (Our journey goes on and on)
Ah-ah…
Nightmare Very Easy (Step by step, we seize tomorrow)
