TV Version[]
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start…
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
Karamitsu ita ima ni shiga mitsuku
Jibun firewall sabi nurikaete made
Me ni shita mono ga riaru ni suri kawaru
Kono sekai kore de ī no?
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start…
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
絡みついた現在にしがみつく
自分FIREWALL 錆塗り替えてまで
目にした物がリアルにすり替わる
この世界コレデイイノ？
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start…
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
Clinging to this tangling moment
Until our self firewall is repainted
The things we lay our eyes upon will be switched by reality
Full Version[]
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start...
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
Karamitsu ita ima ni shiga mitsuku
Jibun firewall sabi nurikaete made
Me ni shita mono ga riaru ni surikawaru
Kono sekai kore de ī no?
Space created by the silence
We capture sadness and regrets
Pondering immortality
Let's forget the idealistic
Project the strength and weaknesses
Hiding deep within the complications
And times goes by...
While dreaming of the future
With no concern, it's slipping through
As it destroys us over and over
Sarishi kage to umaredasu hikari itsumo ima mo
Kono shunkan ni aru
Te ni shita mono ga riaru ni iro utsuru
Kono sekai kore de ī no?
Nanika o sutete, nanika o uragiri
Nanika o kowashi, nani ga shinjitsu ka sagashite iku
Karamitsu ita ima ni shiga mitsuku
Jibun firewall sabi nurikaete made
Me ni shita mono ga riaru ni surikawaru
Kono sekai kore de ī no?
Who is gonna be telling who?
Tōrisugiru memories and the presence
Tell me, who is all of this for?
The more we question kaze ni maichiru
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start…
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
絡みついた現在にしがみつく
自分FIREWALL 錆塗り替えてまで
目にした物がリアルにすり替わる
この世界コレデイイノ？
Space created by the silence
We capture sadness and regrets
Pondering immortality
Let's forget the idealistic
Project the strength and weaknesses
Hiding deep within the complications
And times goes by...
While dreaming of the future
With no concern, it's slipping through
As it destroys us over and over
去りし影と生まれ出す光 いつも今も
この瞬間にある
手にした物がリアルに色映る
この世界コレデイイノ？
何かを捨てて、何かを裏切り
何かを壊し、何が真実か探して行く
絡みついた現在にしがみつく
自分FIREWALL 錆塗り替えてまで
目にした物がリアルにすり替わる
この世界コレデイイノ？
Who is gonna be telling who?
通り過ぎるmemories and presence
Tell me who is all of this for?
The more we question 風に舞い散る
Taken by the sinking blue
Gonna understand the hatred to
Understand true meanings of love
Does not end until the end comes
And the people get replaced again
But this keeps repeating on and on
Another start…
A win prearranged is no fun!
You won't get far, can't escape
If you're gonna let it cross
Oh, Black Swallowtail
Clinging to this tangling moment
Until our self firewall is repainted
The things we lay our eyes upon will be switched by reality
But is the world fine like this?
Space created by the silence
We capture sadness and regrets
Pondering immortality
Let's forget the idealistic
Project the strength and weaknesses
Hiding deep within the complications
As times goes by...
While dreaming of the future
With no concern, it's slipping through
As it destroys us over and over
The shadow that parts and the light that's born from it
Are always here in this moment, even now
The things we obtain have their colors reflected in reality
But is this world really fine like this?
Throwing something away... Betraying something...
Breaking something... We search for what's really true!
Clinging to this tangling moment
Until our self firewall is repainted
The things we lay eyes upon will be switched out by reality
But is the word really fine like this?
Who is gonna be telling who?
Memories and presence passing by...
Tell me who is all of this for?
