L-Quote Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
闇とは深く味わうもの
身体中へ受け入れて感じよう
(Drink it down, enjoy the black around taste the darkness)
Let down, you feel trust falls
Break down
迫り来る衝撃へと
君にも流れ込む
永遠に沈むような
錯覚に抱かれて何処まで (何処まで)
正気で居られるのか?
君の手が核心へ近づく
手負いでもその目に賭けよう
逝く前に掴めるか? 力を
(Drink it down, enjoy the black around taste the darkness)
Let down, you feel trust falls
Break down
鏡は今砕かれ
見たことも無い君が目覚めて (目覚めて)
あぁ もう帰れない
身代わりに失った
鮮やかな幻想が弾けて (弾けて)
裂け目に勝機を見た
Get up, you know the worst
Fed up fearless light now
鏡は今砕かれ
見たことも無い君が目覚めて (目覚めて)
静かに動き出す
わずかに開いた闇の
向こうへ駆け上がるその目は (その目は)
もう誰も手に負えない
Drink it, drink it down
Drink it, drink it down
