Lyrics & Translation
Tense atmosphere, stacked ice blocks
Follow the lead, that's what I was told
A happiness that's all the same
Before I knew it, even my breath had frozen
Here in the middle of thick ice
A heart's shell that’s closed up somewhere along the way
The pressure of expectations is bouncing all around
My heartbeat questions myself
A towering, huge wall
Who am I crossing it for?
oh oh oh oh
Seeking myself
More than the ordinary answer
Only one true answer
oh oh oh oh
And choosing it is nobody but myself
Towards a future only here can hold
The vague outline of tomorrow
Pieces I collected are now mismatched
The unseen injustices lurking in the world
Illuminated by the sun
A passionate flame burning in my chest
Here in the middle of thick ice
A heart’s shell dampened with steam
Light seeping out, bouncing all around
Lighting up everything in this universe
A towering, huge wall
Who am I crossing it for?
oh oh oh oh
Seeking myself
No matter what I carry
The life in my hands
oh oh oh oh
And nobody but myself is the one to decide
Towards a future only you hold
A narrow world, a lid closing it
Withered dreams tangled in vines
Deep fog shouting now
Blow everything away, like a Blizzard
Break the ice, break the ice, break the ice now
Break the ice, break the ice, break the ice now
Break the ice, break the ice, break the ice now
Break the ice, break the ice, break the ice now
A towering, huge wall
Who am I crossing it for?
oh oh oh oh
Seeking myself
More than the ordinary answer
Only one true answer
oh oh oh oh
And nobody but myself is the one to decide
Towards a future only here can hold
The story continues
