Akuma no Ko

Devil's Child

Akuma no Ko

The iron ball is the proof of justice
鉄の玉が正義の証明
tetsu no tama ga seigi no shoumei
If pierced, it gets closer to being a hero
貫けば英雄に近づいた
tsuranukeba eiyuu ni chikazuita
Close your eyes and try to touch
その目を閉じて触れてみれば
sono me wo tojite furete mireba
A demon with the same shape, the same body temperature
同じ形 同じ体温の悪魔
onaji katachi onaji taion no akuma

I'm no good, and they are good
僕は駄目であいつはいいの
boku wa dame de aitsu wa ii no?
There was just a wall there
そこに壁があっただけなのに
soko ni kabe ga atta dake na no ni
Don't lament the fate you were born into
生まれてしまった運命 嘆くな
umarete shimatta sadame nageku na
We are all free
僕らはみんな自由なんだから
bokura wa minna jiyuu nan dakara

If we had wings like a bird
鳥のように羽根があれば
tori no you ni hane ga areba
We could go anywhere
どこへだって行けるけど
doko e datte yukeru kedo
But if there's no place to return to
帰る場所がなければ
kaeru basho ga nakereba
We probably can't go anywhere
きっとどこへも行けない
kitto doko e mo yukenai
Just living is unbearable
ただただ生きるのは嫌だ
tada tada ikiru no wa iya da

The world is cruel, but I still love you
世界は残酷だ それでも君を愛すよ
sekai wa zankoku da sore demo kimi wo aisu yo
No matter what sacrifices are made, I'll still protect you
何を犠牲にしても それでも君を守るよ
nani wo gisei ni shitemo sore demo kimi wo mamoru yo
Even if it's a mistake, I won't doubt
間違いだとしても 疑ったりしない
machigai da to shitemo utagattari shinai
Righteousness is strongly believing in oneself
正しさとは 自分のこと 強く信じることだ
tadashisa to wa jibun no koto tsuyoku shinjiru koto da

The scene of iron rain falling
鉄の雨が降り散る情景
tetsu no ame ga furi chiru joukei
Looked like a movie on TV
テレビの中 映画に見えたんだ
terebi no naka eiga ni mietan da
War is a foolish obsession
戦争なんて愚かな狂慕
sensou nante oroka na kyoubou
It's irrelevant, stories of unknown countries
関係ない 知らない国の話
kankei nai shiranai kuni no hanashi
Then why do they hate each other?
それならなんであいつ憎んで
sore nara nande aitsu nikunde
The black feelings can't be hidden
黒い気持ち隠し切れないわけ
kuroi kimochi kakushi kirenai wake
I can't even explain it
説明だってできやしないんだ
setsumei datte deki ya shinain da
We are full of contradictions
僕らはなんて矛盾ばっかなんだ
bokura wa nante mujun bakka nan da

Even if these words are useful
この言葉も役立たれば
kono kotoba mo yakusarereba
The true meaning won't be conveyed
本当の意味は伝わらない
hontou no imi wa tsutawaranai
Believe in what you see
信じるのはその目を開いて
shinjiru no wa sono me wo hiraite
And touch in the world
触れた世界だけ
fureta sekai dake
Just living is unbearable
ただただ生きるのは嫌だ
tadatada ikiru no wa iya da

The world is cruel, but I still love you
世界は残酷だ それでも君を愛すよ
sekai wa zankoku da sore demo kimi wo aisu yo
No matter what sacrifices are made, I'll still protect you
何を犠牲にしても それでも君を守るよ
nani wo gisei ni shitemo sore demo kimi wo mamoru yo
The shadow of the chosen ones, the corpses of the abandoned
選んだ人の影 捨てたものの屍
eranda hito no kage suteta mono no shikabane
I realized, within myself, the demon's child grows
気づいたんだ 自分の中 育つのは悪魔の子
kizuitan da jibun no naka sodatsu no wa akuma no ko
Behind justice, in the sacrifices, in the heart, the demon's child
正義の裏 犠牲の中 心には悪魔の子
seigi no ura gisei no naka kokoro ni wa akuma no ko
