soko ha kanashii sekai gathere a sorrowful world

mujintou ni iru you naIn the never-ending

hateshi no naiand transparent darkness

suki tooru yami no naka deLike being on a deserted island,

sore demo me o korashitastill, I strained my eyes

aisuru hito aisuru tame niIn order to love the one I love,

ikitekundaI will go on living

mikaeri nante nani mo naiThere is nothing to be expected in return

mune o shibari tsukeru nigottaThese muddy emotions

konna kanjou karathat tie down my heart

jiyuu ni narereba ii no niIf only I could be free of them

hana no you niLike a flower,

kyou mo sora he iki o shitebreathing into the sky again today

mita sare takute itsumoAlways wanting to be satisfied,

hanatsu anata he no omoi dake dethat my own heart sets free
