Japanese

無限に向かい飛び立つ翼 その空間で
灼けつく星の輝きを今 この身に浴びながら 栄光をその手に

夢でもなく 愛でもなく 自由だけが欲しくて
動き出せば 近づくはずさ
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫酸が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

拓け・・・オマエが 望むセカイを!

色を無くしたこの空は 涙枯れるほど悲しい
求め続けた自由さえ もう要らない

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫唾が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

Romaji

mugen ni mukai tabitatsu tsubasa so no kuukan de
yake tsuku hoshi no kagayaki wo ima kono mi ni abinagara eikou wo sono te ni

yume demo naku ai demo naku jiyuu dake ga hoshikute
ugoki daseba chikadzuku hazusa 
soko wa OMAE ga nozumu SEKAI da

sameru koto nai yume naraba boku no ii sama ni yaraseteyo
mushizu ga hashiru kono machi ni ikari tatae seisai wo buchikamase

hirake... OMAE ga nozomu SEKAI wo!

iro wo nakushita kono sora wa namida kareru hodo kanashii
motome tsudzuketa jiyuu sae mou iranai

sameru koto nai yume naraba boku no ii sama ni yaraseteyo
mushizu ga hashiru kono machi ni ikari tatae seisai wo buchikamase

Long Version

Japanese


無限に向かい飛び立つ翼 その空間で
灼けつく星の輝きを今 この身に浴びながら 栄光をその手に

夢でもなく 愛でもなく 自由だけが欲しくて
動き出せば 近づくはずさ
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫酸が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

悲しいほどに無邪気な姿 見せつけないで
オマエが生きる星の命を憂いてしまうから 瞳凝らして

悪も消えた 花も消えた 何が残るというのか
正義の代償 転がる風景 さあ
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

どうせゲームの主役ならば ボクの言うとおりに動いてよ
主を忘れたこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

全てが満ちて欠ける
全てが満ちて欠けてく
この砂は誰の物 この空は誰の物なのか
この瞬間も最初から決まっていた
それを書き換えるのはボクの手だ

見せろ・・・疼くんだろ
拓け・・・オマエが 望む世界を!

色を無くしたこの空は 涙枯れるほど悲しい
求め続けた自由さえ もう要らない

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫唾が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ
