Saying his name all over meThey kept shouting his name at me.
The greatest memoriesThese are my greatest memories.
Never forget where we came fromI’ll never forget where we started.
We know that pain more than anyoneWe understand that pain better than anyone.
I’m all alone in this cold darkI’m standing alone in this cold darkness.
Oh baby look where I’m at nowOh baby, look at where I’ve finally reached.
There’s no going back cause where I’m standing’s the dreamThere’s no going back, because I’m standing right in the dream.
Nani hitotsu mo omokage ga nai kuraiTo the point where not a single trace of the past remains.
Ima kara I will take itFrom this moment on, I’m going to take it.
Koko made I will make itI’ve made it all the way to this point.

This is not real destinyThis isn’t our true destiny.
Do you know who is the enemyDo you even know who the real enemy is?
We can’t escape from the miseryWe can’t run away from this misery.
It’s like a labyrinthIt feels just like a labyrinth.
Jesus ChristGood Lord,
Why is it that every time we’re one step away something gets in the waywhy is it that every time we’re one step away, something blocks our path?
We’re not asking for your blessingsWe aren’t looking for your blessings.
Please just don’t f#ck with usPlease, just don’t mess with us.
We’ve still got so much to doWe still have so much left to achieve.
There’s no going back cause where I’m standing’s the dreamThere’s no going back, because I’m standing right in the dream.
Hakisuteta tsuba nomikomitaku wa naiI refuse to swallow back the words I’ve already spat out.

Tobichitte I will live onEven if I’m torn apart, I will live on.
There’s no going back cause where I’m standing’s the dreamThere’s no going back, because I’m standing right in the dream.
Ima sugu shinde legendI’d rather die right now and become a legend.
We will never stop walking with you nowWe’ll never stop walking forward with you now.
Shut the f#ck up get the f#ck upShut your mouth and get yourself up.
We don’t want to be such a f#ck upWe don’t want to end up as total failures.
No way backThere’s no way back.
There’s no going back cause where I’m standing’s the dreamThere’s no going back, because I’m standing right in the dream.
Kono yo o shireba shiru hodo aa mujouThe more I learn about this world, the more heartless it feels.
