[English]

Just as words connect people,

Now, they are bound in memories,

The world should be free,

But truths are tangled and stagnate,

Emotions twist and distort as they pull and clash,

Unaware of what lies ahead,

Struggling and clawing,

With trembling steps and a single thread of hope, we cling,

Even if our story is just starting to unravel,

We carve a spiral along countless deathly paths,

Even fate on the brink of breaking,

We weave and spin the future together,

That's what we call 'living,'

Connecting shards of causal laws,

Tightening that stretched thread,

Strum and roar, now sing out loud,

A song for hopes that can’t be surrendered,

While unraveling and tangling,

We weave it all into the light now,

Like threads overlapping, one after another,

Until everything finally makes sense,

Always unaware in the moment,

Even everyday moments where we smile close together,

And yesterday, hurt and collided,

We must have chosen to walk these paths,

Because we are being chosen,

And again, through the hardships we face,

We appear perfectly in countless eyes,

Even under a beautiful starry sky,

Broken by the unraveling of times,

Still, we have spun tomorrow's hope,

Connecting eleven dimensions,

Untangling those intertwined threads,

Unravel and trace, now follow,

The trail that changes the world,

While unraveling and tangling,

We weave it all into the light now,

Threads aligned vertically hold fate,

Horizontal threads bear destiny,

Even if weak, we still face it,

Blessings upon us,

Carving a spiral along countless deathly paths,

Even if our fate is about to break,

It still shapes who I am,

A will that I must attain,

The melody paints a dreamlike scene,

Even pointless fantasies,

The faint prayers we continue to believe in,

Are nothing but 'resolve,'

Connecting fragments of causal laws,

Tightening that stretched thread,

Strum and roar, now sing out loud,

A song for hopes that can’t be surrendered,

While unraveling and tangling,

We weave it all into the light now,

Connecting fragments of causal laws,

The melody paints a dreamlike scene,

I weave the future,

...

[Japanese]

言葉が人を結いつけるように

記憶に今が縛られるように

自由なはずの世界は

絡まって淀んでゆく真相

引き合って歪んでゆく感情

誰も訳も知らないまま

足掻き藻掻く

縒れた足取り 一縷の希望 縋るように

綻びかけの物語だとしたって

幾千の死線に沿って螺旋を描く

途切れそうな運命でも

撚り合わせて紡ぐ未来

それを僕等 "生きる" と言うんだ

因果律の破片を繋ぐ

張り詰めたその糸を

掻き鳴らして さぁ歌え

譲れない希望の為の唄

解れながら 縺れながら

織りなすのさ 光を今

糸と糸が重なり合うように

やがてすべてが意味を成すように

いつだって気づかないまま

寄り添って笑う日常も

ぶつかって傷ついた昨日も

選び歩きだしたはずで

選ばれてる

現れる苦難をまた僕らは行くんだ

幾千の視線にさえ完全に映る

美しい星空でも

綻び崩れる時代

それでもまだ明日を編んだ

十一の次元を繋ぐ

縺れ合ったその糸を

解き手繰って さぁ、辿れ

世界を変えてゆく軌跡

解れながら 縺れながら

織りなすのさ 光を今

縦の糸には運命を

横の糸にはを宿命を

弱くても尚立ち向かう

僕等に祝福を

幾千の死線に沿って螺旋を描く

途切れそうな運命でも

それが僕の形を成す

勝ち取るべき自分の意志だ

旋律が夢幻を描く

詮の無い絵空事も

信じ続けた細い祈りは

他でもない "覚悟"

因果律の破片を繋ぐ

張り詰めたその糸を

掻き鳴らして さぁ歌え

譲れない希望の為の唄

解れながら 縺れながら

織りなすのさ 光を今

因果律の破片を繋ぐ

旋律は夢幻を描く

未来を僕は紡ぐ
