English translation

With shining eyes, they read the darkness

Such terrifying childrenEver since they were born,

Love has been a fatal weapon

Clutching my bloodstained chest

I buried it in my gaping woundsIn the world born from decay, there is a

Brilliant despair

Whether we kill them or let them live, it's our karma

Laughing like a dog, crying like a pig

After their continuous screams,

Come, what shall we do?They are protected and coddled, and it comes to nothing

This empty husk still pants for breath

Put your finger on the trigger of

This cracked, glimmering heartThey are protected and coddled, and they break things

Pretend you understand it all

What they shoot is a worthless dreamA crowd of ghosts who have grown feet

Tread on the death of the game

They long and search in order to live

The gate is in the depths of the earthNo matter how it begins, in order to end it, there must be an

Inevitable ferocity

The only ones who can save me are us

Loving like an enemy, hating like a friend

It's not as though we met in deceptionWhen they pair off, demand, and seek

I realize that everyone keeps sinking

I learn that the heart floating atop this liquid

Is not filthyThey pair off, demand, and grope about

Come, take this pain that will never become tears

And let us share it, mouth-to-mouthWith sleeping eyes, they embrace the darkness

Such tragic childrenThey are protected and coddled, and it comes to nothing

This empty husk still pants for breath

Put your finger on the trigger of

This cracked, glimmering heart"O, bound, enclosed, pampered, consumed,

Earnestly denied freedom!"They curse, dream, neglect, and pray:

"O, fate!" they wish,

"I want to live out whatever remains of my life."
