Lyrics
Japanese
放て!心に刻んだ夢を 未来さえ置き去りにして 限界など知らない 意味ない! この能力が光散らす その先に遥かな想いを 歩いてきた この道を 振り返ることしか 出来ないなら･･･今ここで全てを壊せる 暗闇に堕ちる街並み 人はどこまで立ち向かえるの？ 加速するその痛みから 誰かをきっと守れるよ Looking! The blitz loop this planet to search way. Only my RAILGUN can shoot it. 今すぐ 身体中を 光の速さで 駆け巡った 確かな予感 掴め!望むものなら残さず 輝ける自分らしさで 信じてるよ あの日の誓いを この瞳に光る涙 それさえも強さになるから

English
Release it! These dreams inside my heart. Leave even the future behind They have no limits and are meaningless! This power that blazes with light. I lay my distant dreams before it If I look back at this path I've walked All I can do now is to destroy it all. On this street falling into darkness, How far can people resist it? Surely, I can protect someone from that intensifying pain Looking! The blitz loop this planet to search way Only my Railgun can shoot it Right now Inside my body, a certain premonition runs at the speed of light Grab it! If its something you desire, leave nothing behind Shining as yourself I believe in the oath you made that day Even the shining tears in my eyes become my strength
