Sora akaku someru kokutan no yami
Nomikomareta hoshikuzu-tachi
Hakanaku furitsumoru hai no yuki

Mitsumeta nageki no mado

There? I come for you

Omoi wa sekibaku no yozora ni
Maiagari kudaketa
Kono sekai ga katachi wo kaeru tabi ni
Mamoritai mono wo

Kokoro ni hishimeku haitoku no yami
Kimi no koe ga masui no youni
Tsumetaku kankaku wo ubatteku

Mujun wo oikakete mo
