"Yes, we must make a choice. For the future."
 
A NEW
START
FOR OUR FUTURE
FOR OUR TOMORROW
 
"WE’LL START TO MOVE"
 
Did you know?
That there are different sides
to this world we are seeing.
 
"The rain won’t last forever"
is something I've sung somewhere, however
 
I
want to continue sending
“that endless rain”
even if its form isn’t that of droplets fallen from the sky.
 
-Fin…?-
 
 
CRISTATE
__________________________

If you don’t know how to kill, then think about ways to hide
 
As long as I’m alive inside you, the music will continue to play every day
The sound might not be the same but making it your world and voicing it should be your reason to live
 
It’s okay to live in there
It’s okay to just pretend on the outside
I’ll do your part too
 
I hope I can stay here and make you my reason to live every day
Imagining your world is fun and I hope I can start feeling like I want to stay here a bit longer
I’m not forcing you to live every day
But why are you over there?
 
I think I understand, actually
It’s because you won’t stop singing there
 
You had told me
That,
“I’m here because you’re alive”
 
so close… yet so far
Even with the red shoes
Crying, trembling, I am turning cristate
Since this is the world we choose to live in,
“We’ll make it so that I am you, and you are me”
 
 
鳥は泳ぎ方を知らず溺れ亡骸
______________________________
 
Shadow dances aflicker,
Falling as if directed to
A burning, sweet dream
 
They get washed away slowly
Black hair, the marionette
No bare body to be seen
 
The wings are now broken,
Ah, ah…
By the colour of sins hidden away
And I can forget,
Ah, ah…
After the scent is buried away
 
Light dances down from the sky,
Strikes through my heart
And bright red rain starts to fall
It’s ending… Isn’t it lovely?
Light dances down from the sky,
Tears out my outstretched arm, 1
And I die, drowned in the past
Streaming down my face
 
I let go of the egoist
Who yielded by wanting to be loved
Shall we…dance like this?
 
As if covering my mouth,
My hair that’s grown longer
Rejects the songs of despair
 
Dramatic words will again
Make this room lonesome
Broken sounds will visit my ears
 
You dance down from the sky
Full of dreams,
Your shining irises are quite radiant
I dance down from the sky
Obscuring meanings,
I had been blooming
In time, I’ll be dead by drowning
 
 
hatred × tangle red × hunger red

_______________________________

 

RED draws so very near
Let’s go look for flowers
Let’s go, shutting out even that place where we were suspended in chains
 
You end up disappearing 
This world is so vast
Where is the fiction that makes us forget even the hurtful things?
 
Children dressed as the devil
Are soldiers guarding that place
Let’s acquire the art of cunning in exchange for common knowledge
 
hatred × tangle red × WORLD
=hatred × hunger red
Just about everyone forces someone to step back so they can thrive
hatred × tangle red × WORLD
=hatred × hunger red
This time when I’ve stopped saying “I’m just alive” could last forever too
 
From the hidden cracks
The corpse of a kitten is laughing,
Telling me to choose eternal sleep if my future will be spent abandoned
 
I am a slave, a slave that’s been forced into something in this world
Will the answer I’ve been waiting so much for come? If needed, I’m monochrome
 
ECHO
________________________
 
Once I had turned away, in those clear days
Came beckoning a thread of innocence
Was that the “tragedy” slipping through the cracks I had closed off?
 
If I put it into words, I can only send a bitter gift of farewell to the past…
And the memories of it will still pierce through my skin, like glass
 
If you want, I will become whatever you wish me to be
The past I’d turned away from was shaken by that sound
Unable to even make eye contact, I stopped listening to the silence
Because I know your pain too
 
If I pretend to smile when once again I begin to shut everything out,
Will you cry? Or will you smile at me?
 
Our fingers searched for each other as if we were about to fall
You’d cried like a child, and I didn’t want to spoil that image,
So I closed my eyes
 
If you want, I will become whatever you wish me to be
Taken by surprise, I cried…there is rain outside
“If you are not here with me, I’ll disappear”
An echo of codependency
 
If suddenly you were to die,
I’d surely feel relieved
I’d have no reason to cry,
Or to be in pain,
Or to love…
 
[ “I like you,”
A moment condensed into words
The past I’d turned away from was shaken by that sound ]
 
[ “Because I love you,” I held you as you were falling apart
Taken by surprise, I cried…there is rain outside ]
 
If “you” want, I will become whatever you wish me to be
I can count the free spaces on my fingers…
Even if a deep darkness awaits in the future I can’t yet see,
The past has now bloomed,
And is falling into an endless abyss…
 
I calmly gathered the vestiges of dried rain,
Along with eternity
 
 瞬間のアイディアル
__________________________
 
Light,
Hide the truth now
I beg of you
For a momentary Ideal
 
Ah…I kick away the countless glass beads that have scattered about
I shake with this pain that’s piercing through my body again
Ah…I don’t even want to take in that sight, the treachery and the sheep’s eyes
I’m deluding myself again, saying things like “is this fate”
 
pray…This world is forever the same
ray…I don’t even want to save it
 
Light,
Encircle the pain now,
So as to accept the hidden wounds
Light,
Hide the truth now,
I beg of you
For a momentary Ideal
 
Ah…A jet-black bell tolls, my fingertips are cut off
Again my freedom is taken, and swarming eyes are laughing
Ah…”Shall we destroy together?” Waiting anxiously for those words,
Again I’m attacked by the passage of time and I start running away
 
pray…This world is forever the same
ray…I want for you to start saving it
 
Light,
Shine on the pain now,
So as to outline the hidden wounds
Light,
Show me the truth now,
And draw me
A momentary Ideal
