Lyrics:

[English]

My face is covered with blood

There's nothing but the pain

追い詰められた快楽に

I can't tell where I'm going to

I'm running all confused

死にものぐるいで

...

Then I see you standing there

Can do nothing but run away

追いかけてくる幻覚に

Look out! I'm raving mad

You can't stop my sadness

切り刻んだ夢は叫気に流れる

(I'll slice my face covered with blue blood)

...

(Give me some more pain)

(Give me the throes of death)

...

涙に溶ける青い血を欲望にかえて

生まれ変わった姿を装ってみても

孤独に怯える心は今も

過ぎ去った夢を求めさまよう

...

悲劇に踊る悲しみを幻にかえて

醒めた姿の舞台を演じてみても

瞳に溢れる虚像は今も

脱ぎ捨てた愛を鮮やかに写す

(Give me some more pain)

(Give me the throes of death)

...

忘れられない悲しみを幻にかえて

生まれ変わった姿を装ってみても

青い涙は悲劇に踊る孤独の

心を今でも濡らし続ける

...
