hurry up アテンの群れから
let me go? はぐれたキミの
what do you see? 宇宙船は
トリノスケールほら赤く点灯
hurry up そろそろ時間ね
let me see? 準備はいかが
what can you do? 誰を救う?
キミの勇気をほら見せて頂戴

アポフィスの近づく夜に
行き先無くしてさまよう
何千回何万回も生まれ変わる
始まりと終わりが交わる場所
何億光年離れたキミのこと
追いかけて聲届くまで

アポフィスの近づく夜に
頬をかすめる光は
(何千回何万回も)
何千回何万回も生まれ変わる
始まりと終わりが交わる場所
何億光年離れたキミのこと

抱きしめて弧を描くまで
追いかけて聲届くまで
