Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji	Translation
憂いを貪り食う 自覚の虜 夢ばかりじゃ夢は朽ちる 虚な瞳に生きる それが現実 代わり映えのない明日 夜へ 誰にも言えない 傷に身を投げ出して 預けた事の無い命 篩にかけ 聞いているのは 無慈悲の椅子 虚な瞳に生きた 其処に居るのは 代わり映えのない詩 唄おう 後何年ですか? まだ生きるんですか? 求め狂う薄情の喝采 時には涙と笑顔の真似 捨てられた愛を拾う人生なんです。 首輪に鈴をつけて 今日も歩く 虫ケラを踏む 私も同じ 嘆き もがき 叫び 嬉しい? 愛、投げつけられ 命 軽い 命 嘘だ 命奏でよう 避けられない 今日も痛い 傷に投げ込まれる 嘘だ 信じられないよ 私も人間 誰にも言えない 傷に身を投げ出して 嘆き もがき 叫び 嬉しい? 愛、投げつけられ 命 軽い 命 嘘だ 愛奏でよう 避けられない 今日も痛い 傷に投げ込まれる 嘘だ 信じられないよ 私も人間 生臭い空が 唯一の救いだろう 今よりもっと人間の 生き方に近く Absolute 後何年ですか? まだ生きるんですか? 求め狂う薄情の喝采 時には涙と笑顔の真似 捨てられた愛を拾う人生なんです。 時には温もりと 安らかな死の匂いを	Urei o musabori kuu Jikaku no toriko Yume bakarija yume wa kuchiru Utsuho na hitomi ni ikiru Sore ga genjitsu Kawaribae no nai asu Yoru e Dare ni mo ienai Kizu ni mi o nagedashite Azuketa koto no nai inochi Furui nikake Kiiteiru no wa Mujihi no isu Utsuho na hitomi ni ikita Soko ni iru no wa Kawaribae no nai shi Utaō Ato nannen desu ka?

Are you still going to live? Seeking like crazy for the heartless cheers At times, I mimic the cries and smiles My life is about picking up the love that's been dumped I put a bell on the collar And walk again today I step on worthless bugs For I am the same Grieve Struggle Scream Are you happy? Love, being thrown at Life Light Life They're lies Let us make the music of life Inevitable It hurts again today Being thrown into the wound They're lies I can't believe it I am human too Unable to tell a soul I throw myself in the wound Grieve Struggle Scream Are you happy? Love, being thrown at Life Light Life They're lies Let us play the music of love Inevitable It hurts again today Being thrown into the wound They're lies I can't believe it I am human too The fallen sky Is probably the only salvation Getting closer than before To live more like a human Absolute How many more years? Are you still going to live? Seeking like crazy for the heartless cheers At times, I mimic the cries and smiles My life is about picking up the love that's been dumped At times, the warmth and The scent of a peaceful death
