Lyrics

Game Size

I am water, made all creatures
Sigh for future,
I've brought them to naught!

I'm inside you, shake your feel and deed
Sometime you'll know me,
All my breath to all!

Deep sea and the sky,
Ah, cleanse for tomorrow!

Life, the life is tough.
You can change the world like the playground!
I know, you want me to be for lives!

I'm inside the cave, wait a cleaner,
I won't laugh in the soil!
I won't laugh in the soil!

Ah, in love, the fetus!
I can save you!

Wait a cleaner,
I won't laugh in the soil!
I won't laugh in the soil!

Long Version

I am water, made all creatures Sign for future, I've brought them to naught I'm inside you, shake your feel and deed Sometime you'll know me. All my breath to all deep sea and the sky. Ah, cleanse for tomorrow Life, the life is tough. You can change the world like the playground I know, you want me to be for lives I'm inside the cave, wait a cleaner I won't laugh in the soil I won't laugh in the soil Now, I know you waste all precious things Tonight I'll show you what you broke to gain. The ice of sorrow. The rain, be violent. You know, you need me. Use my force to live. I'm origin of life. Ah, right for tomorrow Chance to existence, you can save the world with the rainbow. I want you will notice me for lives. I'm inside the rain. Cleanse the earth. But, I won't laugh in the soil I won't laugh in the soil Ah, in love, the fetus, I can save you
