見詰めてた淡い願いを描き |
Mitsumeteta awai negai o egaki |
I vision the small wish I had been gazing |

Trivia
Title
- While the unplugged songs on THE MARROW OF A BONE (2007) didn't get different titles on the album itself, this song's unplugged version was titled THE PLEDGE [UNPLUGGED] on the "DIR EN GREY AUDIO LIVESTREAM 5 DAYS" setlist.
- On the setlists for the TOUR07 THE MARROW OF A BONE -PREMIUM LIVE- on April 21 and 28, 2007, the unplugged version uses the addendum -Unplugged-.
- On March 15, 2019, the band performed the unplugged version for the first time since 2007. Due to Kaoru's equipment failing shortly after starting the song, Kyo sang most of it a capella.
Lyrics
- During the line まだ上手く生きられないさ 変えられるのはただ… (Mada umaku ikirarenai sa Kaerareru no wa tada…), the background vocals sing "ru ru ru". At the end of the line, Kyo sings "Pledge to you". Both were only included in the band score's sheet lyrics.
