Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji
君が言う　眼を逸らし　目を覚ます手首が 「生まれ変われる」と 不思議なまでに引かれるまま 青虫と絡み合って 猫足のソファーベッド　下に隠れるスフィンクス チラつかせる　刺青の下　覗き込む 優しく爪を立て　短い尾鰭　バタつかせて 言葉遣いを選び　手懐ける貴方次第で シャンデリア　君の為照らす 乾涸びる鱗に触れて 君が言う　眼を逸らし　目を覚ます手首が 「生まれ変われる」と 不思議なまでに引かれるまま 青虫と絡み合って 優しく爪を立て　短い尾鰭　バタつかせて ゆらゆら魅せて ひらひらもがく美しさに奪われて 言葉遣いを選び　手懐ける貴方次第で シャンデリア　君の為照らす 乾涸びる鱗に触れて	Kimi ga iu　Me o sorashi　Me o samasu tekubi ga "Umarekawareru" to Fushigi na made ni hikareru mama Aomushi to karamiatte Nekoashi no sofābeddo　Shita ni kakureru sufinkusu Chira tsukaseru　Irezumi no shita　Nozokikomu Yasashiku tsume o tate　Mijikai ohire　Bata tsukasete Kotobazukai o erabi　Tenazukeru anata shidai de Shanderia　Kimi no tame terasu Hikarabiru uroko ni furete Kimi ga iu　Me o sorashi　Me o samasu tekubi ga "Umarekawareru" to Fushigi na made ni hikareru mama Aomushi to karamiatte Yasashiku tsume o tate　Mijikai ohire　Bata tsukasete Yurayura misete Hirahira mogaku utsukushisa ni ubawarete Kotobazukai o erabi　Tenazukeru anata shidai de Shanderia　Kimi no tame terasu Hikarabiru uroko ni furete
Translations
Translation on ARCHE	Translation on 「我葬の詩」下巻
You say as you look away The wrist that wakes you "People can be reborn again" Strangely, I am drawn without resistance Mingling with a caterpillar The sphinx hides underneath The sofa bed with a carved leg A little peak under the tattoo Taking a look inside Its claws come out gently Its short tail flapping away Choosing your words To tame, that's up to you I light the chandelier for you Touching the parched scales You say as you look away The wrist that wakes you "People can be reborn again" Strangely, I am drawn without resistance Mingling with a caterpillar Its claws come out gently Its short tail flapping away Let me see you sway I am taken by the beauty of the struggle Choosing your words To tame, that's up to you I light the chandelier for you Touching the parched scales	You say it as you look away, the wrist awakes and says 「People can be born again」 Strangely, I am just so drawn Intertwining with the caterpillars The cabriole-legged sofa bed The sphinx hides underneath Giving a peak　Under the tattoo A look inside Gently sinking its claws in The short tail flaps away Choose the words wisely You can tame it, it's up to you I light the chandelier for you As I touch the dried-up scales You say it as you look away, the wrist awakes and says 「People can be born again」 Strangely, I am just so drawn Intertwining with the caterpillars Gently sinking its claws in The short tail flaps away Attracting by slowly swaying I am taken by the beauty of the fluttering struggle Choose the words wisely You can tame it, it's up to you I light the chandelier for you As I touch the dried-up scales

Trivia

Lyrics

• There are two lines at the beginning and end of the song that weren't included in any printed lyrics.
• In the album booklet and poem book, there's a mistake in the refrain:

The particle に (ni) in 君の為に照らす (kimi no tame ni terasu) isn't sung.
