nanika ni michibikare
maboroshi no naka   ikiteiru no ka…

tomerarenai   mainichi ni honrou sareru daremo ga
sugaru youni ai wo motome tsuzuke   samayotte iru
Forever   kokoro   toji komeru tame no   yoroi wa itsushika
chigau watashi wo tsukuridazu

utsukushiku saki hokoru   hana wa tsuyoku moroi
kakushita toge wa mou oreteshimatta   nanimo dekizu…
We’re caught in the chaos

kanashimi ya nikushimi wo uketomerarezu daremo ga
kage wo daki nemuru   kagami no naka “yasuragi” motome
Break out now   hikari sashikonda   honno sukoshi no basho kara
tozasu kokoro wo hanatsu toki

de aeta   hontou no watashi ga te wo nabasu
hikari to kurayami ga   toke au youni hitotsu ni natta
Like an illusion in the chaos

   taisetsu na mono   dokoka ni wasure
   nagareru youni   sagashi tsuzuke iru   Drifter
   omo sugiru tsumi   seottei temo
   nanimo kizukazu   toki wa sugiteiku no nara

Forever   hito wa doushite mo ikiteika nakyanaranai
kotae mitsukeru hi made
I’m going   hikari sashikonda   honno sukoshi no basho demo
tozasu   kokoro wo michibiku yo

deaeta honto no watashi ga te wo nobasu
hikari to kurayami ni suikomareru youni
utsukushiku saki hokoru   hana ni naritakatta
kakushite toge de   sou   kitto dareka wo kizutsuketei temo
We’re illusions in the chaos
Being lead by something
Are we living within an illusion?

Everyone makes fun of the unstopping days
Continuous wandering in search of love to embrace

Forever   I dawn my armor only when I close my heart
Making myself different

Beautiful blossoming pride, the flower is a fragile strength
With hidden thorns within it’s folds, preventing movement
We’re caught in the chaos

Everyone receives sadness and hatred
Embracing the shadow in sleep, consulting the mirror for a “feeling of peace”
Break out now   Bathed in light from a fairly small place
Time to set a closed mind free

A meeting, my true self stretches out a hand
The light and deep darkness, as if melting became one
Like an illusion in the chaos

Important things, lost somewhere
As if flowing along, continuing to search   Drifter
Even while burdened with the weight of guilt
Noticing nothing as time passes me by
 
Forever  No matter what, people have to keep living
Until the day the answer is found
I’m going   Bathed in the light from a fairly small place
The closed heart is guided
 
A meeting, my true self stretches out a hand
The light and deep darkness, as if being drawn in
Beautiful blossoming pride, wanted to become a flower
Even if it’s hidden thorns hurt someone
We’re illusions in the chaos
