亡國覚醒カタルシス
ALI PROJECT Lyrics

嘆キノ壁ハ　積ミ上ゲラレテ
The wailing walls have piled up.

愚カノ神ハ　奉ラレル
The foolish gods are worshiped.

生きるは毒杯　杞憂の苦しみを 飲み干す術を誰が授けよう
Living is drinking a poisonous cup, but who will teach us how to drink it entirely and not just worry about its contents?

太陽に棲むと云う賢者の鷲 羽搏きだけが谺する
The wise eagle that resides in the sun, only the sound of its flapping wings echoes.

この双つの眸に宿った 闇と光　その何方で 僕は未来(あした)を 見つめるべきなのだろう
The darkness and the light that dwell in my two eyes, to which one should I look to when gazing upon the future?

渇き切った瓦礫の街 点と線を繋ぎ合わせ 意味など無い事ばかり 溢れてゆく
The city of parched rubble in which lines and dots are intertwined, overflowing with meaningless things.

炎のごとき孤独 抱く體　鎮めては 暗渠へと滴ってく雫
The flaming loneliness that embraces me, calming my body, and the tears that drip into the dark drain.

掲げる毒杯　この生は満ちても 焦がれる死の夢は流れ着く 砦に喰い込む爪　孤高の鷲 羽搏きだけが　舞い上がる
With the poisonous cup raised, even when this life is full, the longing dream of death will wash up. The talons of the lonely eagle sticking into the fortress, only its flapping wings dance in the air.

あの蒼穹に磔刑にしてくれたまえ 天と地が結ぶ場所に僕は立つ
Let me be crucified in that blue sky, for I stand in the place where heaven and earth meet.

花実のような記憶たちは 焼かれ爛れ抜け殻だけ あの日の魂は 何処へ行ったのだろう
Memories that are like flower buds, burned, withering, leaving only empty shells. Where did the soul from that day go?

冷たい膚　寄せて触れて 胸の傷と傷を合わせ 再び辿るべき地図 ここに刻む
Drawing close with cold skin, overlapping the wounds of the chest, we engrave the map that we must follow again here.

世界は見えぬ翼 その黒影(かげ)に隠された 純白の一羽　射止めよ
The world is an invisible wing, hidden in its shadow, capture the one pure white bird.

生きるは祝杯　口移しの快楽 渇く嗤いも息も絶え絶えに まぐわいあう慰みの掌に 虚しさだけが脹らんで
Living is a toast, sharing the pleasure mouth to mouth, even my dry laughter and breath are just about gone. In the palm of my hand that shares comfort, only hollowness swells up.

ああ玉砕と美しく散り逝くならば 恍惚の先にはまだ君が居る
Oh, if we beautifully perish in death, still you exist in the ecstasy beyond.

嘆キノ壁ハ　突キ崩サレテ 愚カノ民ハ　鏖サレル
The sorrowful walls are collapsing and the foolish people are dying.

生きるは毒杯　愛する哀しみを 飲み干す術を誰が授けよう
Living is drinking a poisonous cup, but who will teach us how to drink up the sorrow of love?

月下に眠ると云う静かの鷲 啼き声だけが舞い降りて
The silent eagle that sleeps under the moon, its cries are the only thing that descends upon us.

掲げる祝杯　わが生は満ちても 果敢ない死の遊戯は果てもなく 砦に喰い込む爪　孤高の鷲 羽搏きだけが舞い上がる
With the congratulatory cup raised, even when my life is full, the game of fearless death never ends. The talons of the lonely eagle sticking into the fortress, only its flapping wings dance in the air.

あの蒼穹に磔刑にしてくれたまえ 罪と罰を生む時代(とき)を僕は視る
Let me be crucified in that blue sky, for I see the era (time) that gives birth to sin and punishment.
