Lyrics

Nihongo

無限に向かい飛び立つ翼 その空間で 
灼けつく星の輝きを今 この身に浴びながら 栄光をその手に

夢でもなく 愛でもなく 自由だけが欲しくて 
動き出せば 近づくはずさ 
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ 
虫酸が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

拓け･･･オマエが 望むセカイを！

色を無くしたこの空は 涙枯れるほど悲しい 
求め続けた自由さえ もう要らない

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ 
虫唾が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

Romaji

mugen ni mukai tabitatsu tsubasa so no kuukan de
yake tsuku hoshi no kagayaki wo ima kono mi ni abinagara eikou wo sono te ni

yume demo naku ai demo naku jiyuu dake ga hoshikute
ugoki daseba chikazuku hazusa 
soko wa OMAE ga nozumu SEKAI da

sameru koto nai yume naraba boku no ii sama ni yaraseteyo
mushizu ga hashiru kono machi ni ikari tatae seisai wo buchikamase

hirake... OMAE ga nozomu SEKAI wo!

iro wo nakushita kono sora wa namida kareru hodo kanashii
motome tsuzuketa jiyuu sae mou iranai

sameru koto nai yume naraba boku no ii sama ni yaraseteyo
mushizu ga hashiru kono machi ni ikari tatae seisai wo buchikamase

English Translation

English Translation, Long Version and Translations are found by Tumblr user abyssalnode.

Spreading our wings into infinity, flying to the air
Now bathing under the glitters of the burning stars, grasping glory with your hand

Not even dream, not even love, I just wish for freedom
If we get going it should become closer to us
The world you desire is there

If this was a never-ending dream, I’m going to do as I wish
To this city we loathe, strike a punishment brimming with anger

Open the way… to the world you desire!

This sky that has lost its color is so sorrowful that tears run dry
I don’t need the freedom that I’ve been seeking for anymore

If this was a never-ending dream, I’m going to do as I wish
To this city we loathe, strike a punishment brimming with anger

Long Version

無限に向かい飛び立つ翼 その空間で
灼けつく星の輝きを今 この身に浴びながら 栄光をその手に

夢でもなく 愛でもなく 自由だけが欲しくて
動き出せば 近づくはずさ
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫酸が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

悲しいほどに無邪気な姿　見せつけないで
オマエが生きる星の命を憂いてしまうから　瞳凝らして

悪も消えた　花も消えた　何が残るのいうのか
正義の代償　転がる風景　さあ
そこは オマエが 望むセカイだ

どうせゲームの主役ならば　ボクの言うとおりに動いてよ
主を忘れたこの街に　怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

全てが満ちて欠ける
全てが満ちて欠けてく
この砂は誰の物　この空は誰の物なのか
この瞬間も最初から決まっていた
それを書き換えるのはボクの手だ

見せろ･･･疼くんだろ
拓け･･･オマエが 望むセカイを！

色を無くしたこの空は 涙枯れるほど悲しい
求め続けた自由さえ もう要らない

覚めること無い夢ならば ボクの良い様にやらせてよ
虫唾が走るこの街に 怒り湛えた制裁をぶちかませ

Long English Translation

Spreading our wings into infinity, flying to the air
Now bathing under the glitters of the burning stars, grasping glory with your hand

Not even dream, not even love, I just wish for freedom
If we get going it should become closer to us
The world you desire is there

If this was a never-ending dream, I’m going to do as I wish
To this city we loathe, strike a punishment brimming with anger

Don’t show a figure so innocent that it’s miserable
Since you’re already grieving over the star’s life, focus your vision

Even evil disappeared, even flowers disappeared, can what was left speak?
Carrying out justice, a scenery scattered about, see
The world you desire is there

If I was a game lead character after all, I’m going to move as I say
To the city that has forgotten its lord, strike a punishment brimming with anger

Everything will wax and wane
Everything is waxing and waning
To whom does this sand belong? To whom does this sky belong, I wonder?
Even this moment was already decided since the beginning
The one that will rewrite it is my own hand

Show it… It pains, isn’t it?
Open the way… to the world you desire!

This sky that has lost its color is so sorrowful that tears run dry
I don’t need the freedom that I’ve been seeking for anymore

If this was a never-ending dream, I’m going to do as I wish
To this city we loathe, strike a punishment brimming with anger
