Even if I get swallowed by a heavy, cold vortex
What's it for?
How to use all this energy we keep clashing with each other
Worrying about it won't make anything synchronize, right?
Look in my eyes, no more cheap lies
I want to be close to you
Just be brave like you, I must be stronger
Hey, look here's what I got
Found cords of love deep in my eyes
Surely, I'll see dawn repeat again and again
Flash my rays
According to you, nobly
Clocking tick and tock (Time will tell, rewind that sight)
You flick the badness, slip away...
From my wings and memories (Time will tell if we are right)
Like overwriting the start of a flipped-over sky and hell
There ain't no way, I will always be there for you
Knotted strings of karma in vain
So that's how I'll find myself anytime, anywhere
A rebellious, twisted childlike mood
What's it for?
How to handle feelings that just keep crossing paths
Exploring won't get us anywhere, right?
Look in my eyes, no more cheap lies
I want to melt together
Just be brave like you, I must be stronger
Hey, look here's what I got
Pity-bound warnings and cords of love
Surely, the future now dances in twilight
Flash my rays
According to you, from this point
Clocking tick and tock (Time will tell, rewind that sight)
You flick the badness, sway and slip...
From my wings and memories (Time will tell if we are right)
Like rewriting the start of a toppled sky and hell
There ain't no way, I will always be there for you
The fleeting intent of tangled karma in vain
Time will tell, rewind that sight
Time will tell if we are right
Just be brave like you, I must be stronger
Hey, look here's what I got
Found cords of love deep inside my eyes
Surely, dawn will repeat again and again
Flash my rays
According to you, nobly
Clocking tick and tock (Time will tell, rewind that sight)
You flick the badness, sway and slip...
From my wings and memories (Time will tell if we are right)
Like rewriting the start of a toppled sky and hell
There ain't no way, I will always be there for you
The fleeting intent of tangled karma in vain
Time will tell, rewind that sight
Time will tell if we are right
Time will tell, rewind that sight
