[English]

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

A cruel fate

waits for us with its fangs bared

I won't give up this path

It's still not enough, this isn't it

I hate not being able to reach, draw your sword

Leaning on a single bond

I want to protect

this beautiful world

your tears

The thunder announces the time

We are released into the sky

pouring down calamity

transforming into a silver blade

The story we left behind

and the things we can no longer lose

Paint over the darkness

straight into the abyss of raging flames

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

If you say you don't want to give up

anything important

sharpen your edge more than anyone else

Wanting and being greedy

grab the future by the collar and twist it down

It's because I desire that I scream and cry

The strongest

searching for

the hill where the wind blows

The thunder illuminates the darkness

soaring into the sky in an instant

not letting sadness escape

like a silver blade

the things I lost in a moment

I'm still chasing and running

become the speed of light

straight into the abyss of raging flames

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

Sharpen to the limit

until it points silver

wedged into the gaps of fate

carve it open

break through

I was weak

back then

pitying

grieving

cutting off the night I curled up in

Fly away

The thunder announces the time

We will surely

turn both kindness and sadness

into a silver blade

If we jump up once more

we should be able to see a beautiful sky

Paint over the darkness

into the abyss of raging flames

We move forward

straight ahead

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

残酷な運命が

牙を剥き出して僕らを待ち構えていても

この道は譲れないよ

まだ足りないこんなもんじゃない

届かないのはイヤだ 抜き身になれ

絆一つに背中を預け

美しい世界を

君の涙を

守りたい

雷鳴が時を告げる

僕らは空に放たれて

災いに降り注ぐ

白銀の刃に変わる

置いてきた物語と

もう失くせないものがある

暗闇を塗りつぶせ

業火の淵へ まっすぐに

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

大事なものを何一つ

諦めたくないと言うのなら

誰よりも尖らせろ 切っ先を

欲しがって欲張って

未来の胸ぐら掴んで捩じ伏せろよ

望むからこそ泣きわめくんだ

一番強い

風吹く丘を

探し出す

雷鳴が闇を照らす

刹那に空を駆け上がる

悲しみを逃さない

白銀の刃のように

一瞬で失くしたもの

まだ追いすがって走るんだ

光の速度になれ

業火の淵へ まっすぐに

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

ギリギリに研ぎ澄ませ

銀色に尖るまで

運命の隙間にねじ込んで

切り開いて

ぶち破って

弱かったんだ

あの時

哀れんで

悲しんで

うずくまった夜を断ち切って

飛ばせ

雷鳴が時を告げる

僕らはきっと何度でも

優しさも悲しみも

白銀の刃に変える

もう一回飛び上がれば

綺麗な空が見えるはず

暗闇を塗りつぶせ

業火の淵へ

僕らは進む

まっすぐに

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)

(Wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh-wow-oh)
