No I won't bend
Endure this agony till the end
Watashi wa kore ni taeru

What have I done
I'm undone
By my own desires

Let me ask you why
On my knees, begging for an answer
No more tears to cry
Naze watashi wa yurusareta no ka?
Why was I given the power to destroy it all?
Why was I given the power to destroy everything I love?

Floating in the sands of time
Where dreams and eve unfold and twine
Our hearts beat once, and then let go
Like lonely flowers crushed below

Watashitachi no monogatari
Wa karamiai, kibō to
Kioku no tapesutorī ni naru

This world is fleeting
We chase the sun
And beg for meaning
Our spirits one

Like autumn leaves, we rustle free
And drift away into time's sea
One moment here, the next, we fade
Elusive hopes, our price is paid

I miss you

You have an itch that you cannot get rid of
An irritation, an irritation
Like a dust, like a speck
Between wrist and elbow
Is it illusion
Is it delusion

Shizukesa ga shihai suru
Hifu no shita de nemuri hajimeru
Commencing anasthesia
Commencing anasthesia
Second chances also belong to your enemies

The blood inside is
The blood is trying to live
But you tell it gently, stay and sleep
We've got nothing to give
Sore wa hōkō shi
Noroi ga kokorogokoro o tsuranuku
Sore wa kōgi shi
Sekai wa iki o nomu
You say you've got nothing to give
But one day, you'll realise
That maybe, you still believe

You touch the cold rain, and you turn into ice
Stare at a stop sign, forget you're in line
The silent siren, the truth and the lies
Allude that you're fine
But no, you're not fine

A dirge of vengeance
Second chances also belong to your enemies

Naze
Sono hitomi wa mirai kara nigeru no

You cling to your oasis
In a sea of heat and grime
Turning beggars into fairytales
Just a matter of time
It's safety or reality
And neither coincide
Your reputation or help those in need
Why can't you decide?

There is usually more
Than one correct algorithm
And you're wiping the floor
With a cloth woven from the cataclysm
Of your safety, my safety
At your expense
Why can't you stand your ground?
You're just decorating the fence

You cling to your oasis
You close your eyes and smile
Turning beggars into fairytales

All you have to do is stand your ground
Speak up for those without a voice
Take a second look at the lost and found
From day one you've had a choice
And that choice makes you responsible
For all the steps you take
Nobody is infallible
One day, we'll all break

There is usually more
Than the one correct algorithm

Kore wa nan no sekai na no ka
Nan no ōkoku na no ka
Nan no sekai no nan no kishibe na no ka

You run a train right through me
Souls traveling for eternity
The hunger, the hunger, the hunger
To run longer, run longer, run longer
And you're looking for a body
A warmth, a name, a key
Don't know if you're bone or liquid
Being pushed throughout the street

Are you afraid
You made yourself a ghost
And that's okay, my friend
You think that you're invisible
But it's not the end
Mune ni osore no hana ga saiteimasu ka

Kamawanai

You exhaled, ugly and untouchable
And I didn't wanna leave
You exhaled, ugly and untouchable
And I didn't wanna leave
I loved you and we gambled
And we lost our minds

Moshi anata ga issho ni iru nara
Mata subete o kurikaesu deshou

Both seduce hearts and leave fast through the door
Yet they call the man lord and the woman a whore
The caged bird cries, it does not sing
Those who hear, they all hear free
Mistaking tears for melody

Tell the world, say the truth
In the end, we're dust
Tell the world, say the truth

Caged Birds

You thing of cruel beauty
May your roads be wide and free
May your eyes evermore be
Wild, wild rivers
Perhaps we never belonged
Perhaps we lied, we always belonged
Perhaps it's a broken son
You have forgotten

I should have sung
I should've softened the wounds
Silk on velvet-blue blood

It hurts
There is a bitter grave incised
With your star-seeking voice
Your tales eternal
Bound in the darkest mausoleums

You've the neatest of cuts
You decimated the lot
Your velocity, light
Wild, wild, wild, wild light
I did not exist
Until my veins burst into fire and mist
Until I fell apart, I screamed please
Hades

I should have sung
I should've softened the wounds
Silk on velvet-blue blood

It hurts
I cannot bear this weight alone
I am remorseful, forever entombed
Your tales eternal
Bound in the darkest mausoleums

You thing of desolate torment
May joy spark, a hyperborean inferno
May the wounded fist of fury within you
Find peace
Perhaps you will forget
Perhaps my skin, my lips, my hair, will fade
Perhaps I am a scar, a ghost, perhaps
We will be nevermore

I should have sung
I should've softened the wounds
Silk on velvet-blue blood

This scintillating push and shove was necessary
A mirror to confirm my atoms
Particles of glass
To wound me in the most
Volatile way
Nautical chaos to combat dead air
Impenetrable thunder-cloud
Heavy as steel
Immovable garrison
We

It hurts
There is a bitter grave incised
With your star-seeking voice
Your tales eternal
Bound in the darkest mausoleums

Hades

I will remember the sound of you breathing
Kimi no toiki o oboeteru
The first sound I heard in a thousand years
Sennen no seijaku o yabutta oto
When the world was made of shadows
Kage de dekita sekai ni
It was you, your laugh, your tears
Kimi no koe ga sashikonda
That made the stars fall into me
Waraigoe mo namida mo hoshi ni natta

Now I wait for your voice in the dark
Ima mo kurayami de kimi no koe o matsu
I would trade forever for your heartbeat
Sono kodou ni eien sae sasageru
Even once, even just one lie
Tatoe ichido dake demo
Tell me you'll come back
Kaeru to itte

Walked on the ruins of time
Jikan no haikyo o aruita kimi
Each word a prayer, a spell
Kotoba wa inori, mahou no you de
You taught me the taste of rain
Kaze no aji o oshiete kureta
And the fire hidden in the stone
Yuki no naka no honoo o misete kureta
Without you, I am frozen in the eternal
Kimi nashi ja, eien ni kōru ma

Now I wait for your voice in the dark
Ima mo kurayami de kimi no koe o matsu
I would trade forever for your heartbeat
Sono kodou ni eien sae sasageru
Even once, even just one lie
Tatoe ichido dake demo
Tell me you'll come back

You left without saying goodbye
Kimi wa sayonara mo iwazu ni kieta
Or maybe I was still asleep
Soretomo boku ga mada nemutteta no ka
But now I'm awake
Demo ima wa mō mezameteru
And I'm waiting for you
Zutto koko de matteru
Even if the world collapses
Sekai ga kowarete mo

We danced across lost empires
Bokutachi wa ushinawareta teikoku o odotta
And whispered in cathedral halls
Daiseidō no naka de sasayaita
You made my silence into music
Boku no chinmoku o ongaku ni shite kureta
Now there's nothing, nothing at all
Ima wa nani mo nai
Nani mo
Just echoes of the way you called my name
Kimi ga boku no namae o yonda hibiki dake

Come back, come back to me
Modotte, modotte kite
Your name, the only one I'd lie for
Kimi no na dake ga boku o ikashiteru
I caved, ended it
Kurayami de inotteru
You were the only one, one I'd live for
Kimi dake ga boku no sekai da datta

I wait for you
I wait for you
Matteru yo
Always
Zutto

Je me suis enflammée
Pour te garder en vie
Et je me suis noyée dans le même souffle
Ta voix est un tremblement de terre dans mes os
Que j'ai essayé de survivre
Qu'est-ce que j'attends
Tu dois me donner plus

Come back, come back to me
Modotte, modotte kite
Your name's the only one I'd lie for
Kimi no na dake ga boku o ikashiteru
I pray in the dark
Kurayami de inotteru
You were the only one I'd live for
Kimi dake ga boku no sekai datta

Come back to me
Modotte, modotte kite
Your name is all I have left
Kimi no na dake ga boku o ikashiteru
I pray in the dark
Kurayami de inotteru
You were the only one I'd live for
Kimi dake ga boku no sekai datta

Even once, even just one lie
Even once, even just one lie
Even once, even just one lie
Even once, even just one lie
Even once, even just one lie
Tatoe ichido dake demo
Tell me you'll come back
Tell me you'll come back
Tell me you'll come back
Kaeru to
