Sacrifice

Endless lines of sorrow
果てし無い悲哀の感情線
hateshi nai hiai no kanjō-sen
A chain of snatching
奪い合いの連鎖
ubaiai no rensa
Where will the final act be seen?
終幕はどこで見られるだろう
shūmaku wa doko de mirarerudarō

The scales entrusted with life accept presumed innocence
命を預けた天秤は推定無罪を容認して
inochi o azuketa tenbin wa suitei muzai o yōshite
Both that justice and the valiant
その正義も武勇士も
sono seigi mo takeru yūshi mo
Have become unwanted goods
不要品となってしまった
fuyō-hin to natte shimatta

Why
どうして
dō shite?
Why
どうして
dō shite?
Why
どうして
dō shite?
With these hands
この手じゃそんな小さな心に
kono te ja sonna chīsana kokoro ni
I can't touch such a small heart skillfully
うまく触れない
umaku sawarenai

Twisted fate has wings of numerous taboos
歪んだ運命は幾つもの禁忌の翼
yuganda unmei wa iku-tsu mo no kinki no tsubasa
The desired wind stops, hands
望まれ風止まり手が
nozomarekazashita ha ga
Turn over and become sins
掌を返して罪となる
tenohira o kaeshite tsumi to naru
It's karma for a street executioner to defy fate in the hair
それは辻斬りが髪に背くカルマ
sore wa tsujitsuma ga kami ni somukidasu karuma
Even if it's a future without madness, it's staked on character
たとえ狂いない未来としても性格に生かける
tatoe kuruinai mirai to shite mo seikaku ni ikakeru

Why don't you call my name
どうして僕の名前を呼んでよ
dō shite boku no namae o yonde yo
The hieroglyph still burns on
まだ乗りに焼き付く象形
mada nōri ni yakitsuku shōkei

Continuing the worthless dream, aiming for that hill
くだらない夢の続きやあの丘目指して
kudaranai yume no tsuzuki ya ano oka mezashite
We were supposed to be able to laugh
僕らは笑えたはずだったのに
boku-ra wa waraeta hazu datta no ni

Today is a day of doubt, locking up suspicions
疑い疑われては鍵かける今日だ
utagai utagawarete wa kagi kakeru kyō da
Without being able to hit the nail with a bomb
爆弾でしかとを叩けずに
bakudan de shika to o tatakezu ni
Somewhere, I made a mistake
どこかで間違えていたんだ
doko ka de machigaete ita n da

Why
どうして
dō shite?
Why
どうして
dō shite?
Why
どうして
dō shite?
These hands only take away
この手は奪うことばかりで
kono te wa ubau koto bakari de
Without even soothing
あやせもしない
a yase mo shinai

The sky remembered wings as gray as memories
空は青より灰色と記憶した翼
sora wa ao yori haiiro to kioku shita tsubasa
As compensation for stolen glances
盗り目奪った代償に
tatarime ubatta daishō ni
I can no longer be myself
もう僕は僕でいられない
mō boku wa boku de irarenai
It's the atonement and reincarnation I once had
それはかつてなお持った贖罪と輪廻
sore wa katsute na o motta shokuzai to rinne
I can't touch happiness with these hands, even if it doesn't go away
以後行かなる幸せでもこの手では触れない
igo ikanaru shiawase de mo kono te de wa sawarenai

Why did I meet you
どうして君と出会ってしまったの
dō shite kimi to atte shimatta no
The smoke burns at my throat
喉元に焼き付く焼煙
nodomoto ni yakitsuku shōen

Holding onto so many shoes
これだけの靴を抱え込んで
kore dake no kutsū o kakaekonde
I realized there is no meaning in being born
生まれた意味などはないと知った
umareta imi nado wa nai to shitta
Washing away the bloodstained arrogance with blood
血塗られた狂傲を血で洗って
chinurareta kyōbi o chi de aratte
I realized there is no meaning in being born
生まれた意味などはないと知った
umareta imi nado wa nai to shitta

Unable to save anything
何一つ救えないくせして
nani hito-tsu mo sukuenai kuse shite
Yet carrying only crosses
十字架ばかりを背負っていこうと
jūji-ka bakari o seotte ikō to
I realized I can't become anyone
何者にもなれないと知った
nanimono ni mo narenai to shitta
The gallows are beckoning with laughter
処刑台が笑い手招いている
shokei dai ga warai temaneite iru

Defeated by a twisted fate, temporary dyed wings
歪んだ運命に負けした仮染めの翼
yuganda unmei ni make shita karisome no tsubasa
The desired wind stops, hands
望まれ風止まり手が
nozomarekazashita ha ga
Turn over and become sins
掌を返して罪となる
tenohira o kaeshite tsumi to naru
It's karma for a street executioner to defy fate in the hair
それは辻斬りが髪に背くカルマ
sore wa tsujitsuma ga kami ni somukidasu karuma
Even if it's a future without madness, it's staked on character
たとえ狂いない未来としても性格に生かける
tatoe kuruinai mirai to shite mo seikaku ni ikakeru

Why don't you call my name
どうして僕の名前を呼んでよ
dō shite boku no namae o yonde yo
The hieroglyph still burns on
まだ乗りに焼き付く象形
mada nōri ni yakitsuku shōkei
