[English]

You said, "Believe me please" (No way)

Don't get close to me (Go away)

You have no idea (Always)

影だけ蠢く

ただ一人踊る

明日が透けて見える

お前のその夢じゃ

この先何も生まれない

己の限界を知るだけ

...

I don't wanna look at your face

You should go some other place

The time spent with you is disgrace

駆け引きが揺れる

ただ一人もがく

明日が透けて見える

お前の生き方じゃ

未来は何も変わらない

己の限界を知るだけ

There is no time in your life

Fall in the dark

You do not know the truth of your life

Live in the dark

I will see the way to go

You understand

I hate you and you hate me so

...

お前のその夢じゃ

この先何も生まれない

己の限界を知るだけ

There is no time in your life

Fall in the dark

You do not know the truth of your life

Live in the dark

I will see the way to go

You understand

I hate you and you hate me so
