Lyrics[]

Copy lyrics

Ienu mama no kodoku wo sakanaderu
Kanashimi wa ikari e to yukiba motome
Katsute, inori de atta hazu no uta wa
Chōwa ushinai kokoro okasu no

Hanpa na tsuyosa ja mohaya
Oroka na puraido sae mamorenai
Keihaku na tsuki ga azawarau

Fuon ni yuragu seigi
Kūkyo ni aegi nagara
Sore demo kibō wo kurui motomeru

Shōki wo nakushita seibo wa mada naiteiru
Hohoemi nagara chi no namida kobosu no ka
Sono itami no yuen wo koko ni tō
Never lose your faith
Ware ga ware de aru imi wo
Futatabi tachiagaru chikara wo
Ima, torimodose

Zaiaku ni nomarete yowasa wo hajita mama
Yowaki wo mamoru nado ieyō ka

Reitetsu na hametsu no jokyoku
Unmei no takuto ni moteasobarete…
Shinra ni tatoe sakaraō to

Kyozetsusuru tame ja naku
Ai wo dakitomeru tame
Kono mi, kono inochi
Subete wo toshite
Sā, tachiagare

Zankoku ga kakinarashita senritsu wa
Mayoigotachi no te wo hīte ochiteiku
Mujun ni hikisakareta to shite mo
Never lose your faith
Kimi no sono te no nukumori wo
Shinjiteiru

Hito to wa
Tsuyosa to wa
Koko ni umare
Kimi to deatta wake wa…

Tomadoi, nageita hibi mo
Kuyamitsukusenai kako mo
Negaitsudzukeru mirai no hate made
Kitto, tsunageru

Shōki wo nakushita seibo wa mada naiteiru
Hohoemi nagara chi no namida kobosu no ka
Naraba dōka, omoidashite
Never lose your faith
Ware ga ware de aru imi wo
Futatabi tachiagaru chikara wo
Ima, torimodose

癒えぬままの　孤独を逆撫でる
哀しみは怒りへと　行き場求め
かつて、祈りであった筈の歌は
調和失い　心侵すの

半端な　強さじゃもはや
愚かな傲慢(プライド)さえ護れない
軽薄な　月が嘲笑う

不穏に揺らぐ正義
空虚に喘ぎながら
それでも希望を　狂い求める

正気を亡くした　聖母は未(ま)だ　泣いている
微笑みながら　血の涙零すのか
その痛みの所以を　ここに問う
Never lose your faith
我が我である意味を
再び立ち上がる力を
今、取り戻せ

罪悪に飲まれて　弱さを恥じたまま
弱きを守るなど言えようか

冷徹な　破滅の序曲
運命の指揮(タクト)に　弄ばれて…
神羅に　例え逆らおうと

拒絶するためじゃなく
愛を抱きとめるため
この身、この命
全てを賭して
さあ、立ち上がれ

残酷が掻き鳴らした　旋律は
迷い子たちの手を引いて　堕ちていく
矛盾に引き裂かれたとしても
Never lose your faith
君のその手の　ぬくもりを
信じている

人とは
強さとは
世界(ここ)に生まれ
君と出逢った理由(わけ)は…

戸惑い、嘆いた日々も
悔やみ尽くせない過去も
願い続ける　未来の果てまで
きっと、繋げる

正気を亡くした　聖母は未(ま)だ　泣いている
微笑みながら　血の涙零すのか
ならばどうか、思い出して
Never lose your faith
我が我である意味を
再び立ち上がる力を
今、取り戻せ

Irritating the loneliness that remains unhealing
My sadness turns into anger and seeks a place to go
The song that was once supposed to be a prayer
Loses its harmony and infringes upon my heart

This half-hearted strength can no longer
Protect even my foolish pride
The frivolous Moon mocks my plight

Justice shakes restlessly
While it gasps on meaninglessness
Despite that, I fanatically seek out hope

The holy mother who lost her sanity is still crying on^{[Notes 3]}
Does she smile as she sheds tears of blood?
Here, I question the grounds for her pain
(Never lose your faith)
Now, let me take back both
The meaning of being myself
And the strength to rise again

Swallowed up by guilt and still ashamed of my weakness
Should I be able to say that I'll protect the weak?

The cool-headed overture to ruin
Is being toyed with by the baton of fate…
Even if it shall defy the gods' design

Not for the sake of rejecting love
But for the sake of holding it back
I stake my body, my life
And everything else I have
Now, I'll stand tall

The melody that was strummed by cruelty
Leads lost children by the hands as it descends farther
Even if contradictions may try to tear us apart
(Never lose your faith)
I believe in the warmth of
That hand of yours

What are people?
What is strength?
The reason I was born here
And met with you must be…

Both the days I was lost in my grief
And the past I can't completely repent for
Will surely connect up to the end of the future
I keep on wishing for

The holy mother who lost her sanity is still crying on
Does she smile as she sheds tears of blood?
If that's the case, then please, remember—
(Never lose your faith)
Now, let me take back both
The meaning of being myself
And the strength to rise again
