[English]

Smells like a beast... beast...

I'm here on the edge

Smells like a rose... rose...

I'm here on the xxxx

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling Let's go quickly

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling 3, 2, 1, Go!

Suddenly caught off guard by this step

Dancing gracefully, this step

The seductive hips like a snake

Eh-O O-Eh-O

We're taking the next step

A step that leaves no trace

Like a beast, this special move

Eh-O O-Eh-O

Pa Pa Pa-Ya Pa-Ya

Can you feel it? Eh-O O-Eh-O (Breath elevates the beat)

Just just just heaven (heaven)

Searching for a crimson rose

If you listen closely, you can hear the signal

Open your eyes wide

Chase the miracle

In the wind, I become a beast

That wall will become today’s prey

Searching love with glittering eyes

Bloom proudly, like a desert rose, even alone

Unkept promises still inside my heart

Because I keep living on

Teeth and petals shining in the darkness

Splitting the night open, where will I go?

Nobody can stop going, going on, Oh, yeah!!

This speed is ever-changing

This speed of trickery and deception

The tempting lips are sweet

Eh-O O-Eh-O

The flow of time, rapid speed

My heartbeat, high speed

I like you

Eh-O O-Eh-O

Pa Pa Pa-ra-bo-la

I can feel it, Eh-O O-Eh-O (The curve takes on a slight fever)

Love, love, love heaven

Searching for a reason to exist

The black-and-white sky

Eyes shining brightly

Droplets scatter in the rain

Bud blossoms bloom

In love, you become a rose

Breaking free from yesterday’s shell

Jagged mosaics of red and green

I’m still in the middle of my dream

Break down, Three, two, one, go! Cross the wall

I’m coming to take you

Entwined with honey, claws and thorns

Guiding each other with the same scent

Nobody can stop going, going on, Oh, yeah!!

“Crossing the night, I’ll come to see you”

“We are beasts and roses”

The horizon painted at the eastern end

When the sunlight hits the conflict

Let’s dance the miracle

In the wind, I become a beast

That wall will become today’s prey

Searching love with glittering eyes

Unkept promises still inside my heart

Because I keep living on

Teeth and petals shining in the darkness

Splitting the night open, where will I go?

Nobody can stop going, going on, Oh, yeah!!

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling Let’s go quickly

NANANA NANA...

The beast and the rose

[Japanese]

Smells like a beast... beast...

I'm here on the edge

Smells like a rose... rose...

'm here on the xxxx

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling ハヤクイコウゼ

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling 　3 2 1 Go!

不意を突いたこのStep

華麗に舞うこのStep

誘う腰つきはSnake

Eh-O O-Eh-O

俺達は次のStep

跡を濁さないStep

まるで獣このSpec

Eh-O O-Eh-O

Pa Pa Pa-Ya Pa-Ya

感じてるの?　Eh-O O-Eh-O (吐息がBeatを上げて)

Just just just heaven (heaven)

紅(あか)い薔薇を探してる

耳ヲ澄マセバ　聴コエル合図

カッと眼を見開いて

奇跡を追え

風の中　俺は獣になる

あの壁が　今日の獲物になる

ギラギラ　眼つきで愛を捜して

咲き誇れ　砂漠の薔薇　孤独でも

果たせない約束　マダ胸の中

生き続けているから

暗闇で光る牙と花びら

夜を切り裂いて何処へ行くだろう

Nobody can stop going going on　Oh, yeah!!

化かし合いのこのSpeed

誘う唇はSweet

パッと雨飛び散って

蕾が咲く

愛の中　お前は薔薇になる

ありのまま　昨日の殻を破る

ギザギザ　紅と緑のモザイク

俺はマダマダ　夢の途中

壊せThree, two, one Go! 壁を越え

お前を奪いに行く

蜜で絡み合う其の爪と棘

同じ匂いで導き合うだろう

Nobody can stop going going on　Oh, yeah!!

“夜を越え、お前を迎えに行く”

“俺たちは、獣と薔薇”

東ノ果テヲ　染メタHorizon

葛藤に陽が射したら

奇跡を舞え

あの壁が　今日の獲物になる

ギラギラ　眼つきで愛を捜して

果たせない約束　マダ胸の中

生き続けているから

暗闇で光る牙と花びら

夜を切り裂いて何処へ行くだろう

Nobody can stop going going on　Oh, yeah!!

I got a feeling, a feeling that I could go there

I got a feeling, a feeling ハヤクイコウゼ

NANANA NANA...
