Lyrics & Translation
Dark skies, blinded by usual rules.
Make it a rule, our vision races ahead.
Come back to – come back to (oh) come back to.
Rise from the dead!
Even if you mourn and pray, it's a dead end.
Gods, please? No one’s listening.
Can't believe in what you can't see.
The clock is ticking.
Once more, summon your shading courage.
Once more, a loop reborn.
No more, but I won’t stop yet.
Just you wait.
A totally different world!
Ignite your apathy, and let your heart worry.
Awaken your potential.
The swirling world is...
Like it’s real.
It flashes and sways.
Let’s go! It’s showtime!
Three seconds until you fall asleep.
Where’s the hope for one more try?
Come back to – come back to (oh) come back to.
Rise from the dead!
Souls are fading, hearts are heavy.
All your understanding is different from before.
Cling to fiction, fake.
Lost your bearings.
Once more, connect the ring.
Once more, dive into the labyrinth.
No more, see? You can still do it.
Just you wait.
A totally different world!
Ignite your apathy, and worry your heart.
Awaken your potential.
The future we mistake for something else.
It’s as if even emptiness gets torn apart.
Crash and smile.
Devil or angel, it’s one and the same inside.
Dancing among the junk, Pa Pa Pa.
Adapting just enough? Do you need that?
Nobody knows.
One, again I hear a voice somewhere.
Two times, the future becomes the past.
Repeating, piling up.
Continue? Start in my life.
You can’t back out now (back out now).
Deep in the dark.
Don’t sink.
Once more, summon your shading courage.
Once more, a loop reborn.
No more, but I won't stop yet.
Just you wait.
A totally different world!
Ignite your apathy, and worry your heart.
Awaken your potential.
The swirling world is...
Like it’s real.
It flashes and sways.
Let's go! It's showtime!
Your time to shine.
