この手にある運命...

覚醒したカオスの時代(とき)が
また真実を隠す
孤独の果て幽かに浮かぶ
ぬくもりはMIRAGE
この星は神が創った
いびつなジオラマ

人は皆幸せという
GIFTを探すの
巻き起こせよ 1, 2, 3
のるかそるかの Black Or White
この瞬間予想外の
伝説が生まれる
狙い定めて 1, 2, 3
ためらわずにBang!
退屈な日常を
撃ち抜け!

影に追われ涙の行方もない
真夜中のタロット
逆位置の天使が嘲笑う
敗色のIMAGE
眼を閉じて空に祈るの
ピンチはチャンスと
まっすぐな鋼の意志を
この手に宿して
立ち上がれよ 1, 2, 3
覚悟を決めて Touch And Go
今解った生きる意味を
優しさとは、勇気。
もう迷わない 1, 2, 3
振り向かずに Bang!
ありがちな未来を
撃ち抜け!

闇夜の向こうに
純白(しろ)く小さく光る奇跡
巻き起こせよ 1, 2, 3
のるかそるかの Black Or White
この瞬間予想外の
伝説が生まれる
狙い定めて 1, 2, 3
ためらわずにBang!
退屈な日常を
壊して!
立ち上がれよ 1, 2, 3
覚悟を決めて Touch And Go
今解った生きる意味を
優しさとは、勇気。
もう迷わない 1, 2, 3
振り向かずに Bang!
煌めいた明日を

新しい世界を
感じて! 信じて! 撃ち抜け!
