ikiteru no wa boku de atteru no deshou ka? kamisama ni toikakeru onaji you ni aisare yume o oikaketa kimi ni toikakeru . |
Is living something that works for me? I ask god We chased a dream of being loved in the same way I ask you . |

The joy of living for someone that makes me cry, You taught me that The boundary that became shadowy in the twilight Reality continues . |

Though there wasn’t your form calling “See you” You’re crying “Oh well” at a photo where you had a place Though it isn’t thanks to you who laughed “Who knows” I was reminded of it as I was shuddering, “Hey” . |
| 「じゃあね」と手を降った君の姿はないけれど 「まぁね」と堪えていたキミは心で泣いている 「さぁね」と笑っていた君の気持ちではないけれど 「ほらね」と求めていた僕の考え当たっちゃった . |

Whatever you seek You can’t grasp Your eyes which were charmed by illusions Became dyed black . |
| * 僕の声は聞こえますか？君の唄は歌えますか？ 空の色は何色ですか？真紅に染まってはいませんか？ 今日も僕はあの丘の上で君を感じる事出来ますか？ 心にポッカリ空いた穴を僕は埋める事が出来ますか？ . |

* Can you hear my voice? Do you sing your song? What color is your sky? Is it not dyed crimson? Can I sense you at the top of that hill again today? Can I fill that gaping hole in your heart? . |
| ** 「キミが居なくなってしまった世界は なんと色のない泡沫の夢か」 「創造できる事は全てすべからくこなしてきたつもりだ」 「こんな事なら遣らずの雨にキミが打たれてしまえば良かった」 「そうすればもう追いかけなくて済むのだから」 . |

* . In the end, I monopolized this sky we looked at together. I don’t mind if it’s just one more time but won’t you let me smile beside you? . ** |
+1: 血空: this is not a real word so I’m not sure how Fukusuke intends it to be read. 血 is definitely ‘chi’ (blood), but 空 could be ‘sora’ (sky), ‘kara’, ‘munashi’ (both mean empty) and so on. I think it’s chi kara, since this is a pun on ‘chikara’ (power).
+2: “yarazu no ame” means: ‘rain that starts to fall as though trying to prevent a guest from leaving’

| 瞬きの間に世界は回る ひとは忘れ行くけれど . |
matataki no ma ni sekai wa mawaru hito wa wasureiku keredo . |
Between the flickers, the world turns Though people will forget that . |
| 誰も知らない世界の果てで 燃ゆるパトスで描いた 雨を飲み込みその炎は 自分さえ焼き尽くした |
dare mo shiranai sekai no hate de moyuru patosu de egaita ame wo nomikomi sono honoo wa jibun sae yakitsukushita |
At the end of a world no one knows Depicted in a burning pathos That flame that swallows the rain burns up even itself |
R.A.L. (Robot and Lyrics)
