Lyrics
I wish I meet the biggest hope, glistens than other which I want to see a desire, glistens than anyone else I love, and want to understand him more than anyone else ...more, more than anyone else...

I have no need for worthless things - anything ordinary and boring What meaning is there to words that will neither be deadly poison nor cure? I don’t care if nobody understands me It’ll only take one second for the world of our [beliefs] to fall apart, after all

I [believe] that hope will overcome despair and shine And will offer my pulsating heart For the sake of that brilliance, I'll tear apart my chest Until the very last drop trickles down and wets my lips

Ordinary and boring people are the majority, because the world is filled with weaklings You'll only be able to make a giant killing once you stand before the abyss of despair There's no way for everyone to soar Because the world of our [beliefs] is so cruel, and takes but a second to change

Believing that hope will overcome despair and shine Will you show no hesitation when drinking the poison poured into that glass Or will you abandon it at the end of much indecision? I am merely watching over you, to whom the last choice is given

The worst incident in the history of mankind has left this piece of land devoid of life, but the seeds are budding again The sprouts of happiness should be able to blossom with much vibrance and strength...

I [believe] that hope will overcome despair and shine And will offer my pulsating heart For the sake of that brilliance, I'll tear apart my chest Until the very last drop courses through my body and overwhelms me

I wish I meet the biggest hope, glistens than other which I want to see a desire, glistens than anyone else I love, and want to understand him more than anyone else ...more, more than anyone else...

I wish I meet the biggest hope, glistens than other which I want to see a desire, glistens than anyone else I love, and want to understand him more than anyone else …more, more than anyone else…

平凡で退屈で つまらないものなんて …要らない 毒にも薬にもなり得ない言葉に 何の意味があるのか

誰にも 理解してもらえなくていい 【信じた】世界が崩れ去るなんて 一秒で足りるから 絶望を踏み越えて 希望が輝くと 【信じて】脈打つ 捧げよう のためならば この胸 切り裂き 最後の 唇に滴らし 濡らしてあげる

平凡で退屈な民 世界の大部分 弱者だからこそ 絶望の淵に立ち そこから為し得る

誰もが飛翔できる なんてワケない 【信じた】世界はかくも残酷で 一秒で変わるから

絶望を踏み越えて 希望が輝くと 【信じて】グラスに注ぐ 劇薬を すぐさま飲み干すか 迷って捨てるか 最期の選択を 委ねられた君を ただている

人類史上最悪事件で 死に絶えた土地に芽吹いた の芽は 力強く雄々しく 花開くはずだと…

絶望を踏み越えて 希望が輝くと 【信じて】脈打つ 捧げよう のためならば この胸 切り裂き 最後の 身体中廻り 侵されるように…

I wish I meet the biggest hope, glistens than other which I want to see a desire, glistens than anyone else I love, and want to understand him more than anyone else …more, more than anyone else…
