Uh, uh, uh, uh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Hold for a moment

Hold on a moment

聞き飽きた 現実からの逃避

Had enough of escaping from reality

だいたいはエゴの理想

Mostly just ego's ideals

永久なんてさ

Forget about eternity

願ってもない 叶いやしないさ

Wishing won’t make it come true

Holy 聖なる夜の心地は

The feeling of a holy, sacred night

非情に残酷な自問自答

Is a brutally honest questioning

幸か不幸かは

Whether it's luck or misfortune

自分の眼にしか見えないさ

Only visible to your own eyes

No one gets close to me

No one gets close to me

Black memory

Black memory

どうなったっていい

It doesn’t matter what happens

まだわからない世界で

In a world I don't understand yet

滲む oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh 叫ぶ

Bleeding out, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, I scream

どうなったっていいから

Because it doesn’t matter what happens

僕を壊さないで

Please don’t break me

覚ませ oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Awaken, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

限界突破見せて さぁ

Show me breaking through my limits

Get, get it up

Get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get it up

Get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get it up

Get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Get, get, get it up

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Uh, uh, uh, uh

Like a loser

Like a loser

いつだって満たされないよ

I’m never satisfied, no matter what

きっとその方が強いから

That's probably because it makes me stronger

迷宮なんてさ

A maze like this

出口もないし終わりもないさ

Has no exit and never ends

Oh shit!

Oh shit!

世の中に溢れ出す

Overflowing into the world

異常に価値のない有象無象

With worthless chaos

関係ないきっと

It doesn’t matter, surely

あなたの心で

In your heart

Black memory

Black memory

どうなったっていい

It doesn’t matter what happens

In a world I don't understand yet

一瞬の迷いも見せない

I won’t show even a moment’s hesitation

僕の瞳が派手に落とすのは

My eyes sharply reveal what’s true

崩壊と希望の二層を既に離した

Leaving behind the layers of collapse and hope already

記憶ただ

Just memories

Black memory

Black memory

人生は守るべき

Life is something to protect

モノで出来ていて

Made of things

いつか oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh 越える

Someday, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, crossing over
