Lyrics

Japanese

You Came To Fight! 悪魔の奏列
Through The Night! 闇に葬むり
Take Your Fight! 女神よカオスと
It Comes Alive! 崇めよ永遠に

Shoot Me Back! 血に染まる大地に
Hate Me Crash! 天使の頭よ
Kill You Fight! 剣に怒りよ
And You Die! お前に与える

Fight Back! 打ち落とせ
Fight Back! 羽ばたく天使の翼めがけて奪え
Fight Back! 朽ち果て
Fight Back! 生きぬ
Fight Back! この女神を抱いて眠れ

Transliteration

You Came To Fight! Akuma no souretsu
Through The Night! Yami ni hoomuri
Take Your Fight! Megami yo kaosu to
It Comes Alive! Agameyo towa ni

Shoot Me Back! Chi ni somaru daichi ni
Hate Me Crash! Tenshi no koube wo
Kill You Fight! Tsurugi ni ikari wo
And You Die! Omae ni ataeru

Fight Back! Uchi otose
Fight Back! Habataku tenshi no tsubasa megakete ubae
Fight Back! Kuchi hate
Fight Back! Ikinu
Fight Back! Kono megami wo daite nemure

English translation

(You Came To Fight!) The funeral of a devil
(Through The Night!) Fades into the darkness
(Take Your Fight!) Eternally honor chaos
(It Comes Alive!) and the goddess

(Shoot Me Back!) The heads of angels
(Hate Me Crash!) And swords filled with rage
(Kill You Fight!) Are bestowed upon you
(And You Die!) On this bloodstained land

(Fight Back!) Knock them to the ground
(Fight Back!) Steal the beating wings of the angels
(Fight Back!) Embrace this rotting,
(Fight Back!) Lifeless
(Fight Back!) Goddess and sleep

Song Production Information

The IIDX version of the original cut from the debut album "iFUTURELIST".
I wonder what you think of the strange continuous melody of triplets.
The album seems to be popular, so I hope this will be, too.
