赤と黒 (Aka to Kuro, Red and Black)

The sleeping lion is awakening
Chasing after its impossible dreams
And the sleepless town is eternally
Chasing after a futureless tomorrow
I, alone, am opening my eyes on this night...

Forever in the depths of darkness
Like flickering crimson embers
Smouldered feelings do not go out
Even in armor-clad hearts

Ah, until they burn everything away
I want to keep living
Within the flames of passion

The sleeping lion is awakening
Chasing after its impossible dreams
Even if the path I should take
Leads me to elsewhere
Someday, I will finally reach you

In the distant sky
That the flocks of sheep look up at
Is a thing more valuable than momentary happiness
I will grasp it with these hands
Because I believe in it...

Secretly carried in my leather coat
Is a blade I use to paint my weaknesses
Held tightly in your arms
I want to melt it with the tears I shed

Ah, until replaced by life
Will the people still possess
The things they want to protect?

God is not in the heavens
And the land is raging
The nation that serves
A dazzlingly greedy king
Is passing through it, holding onto the nihility

Within my innocent heart
I am thinking of you
In this corrupted world
The love that can be encountered
Will surely shine brighter
Than anything else...

The sleeping lion is awakening
Chasing after its impossible dreams
Even if the path I should take
Leads me to elsewhere
Someday, I will finally reach you

In the distant sky
That the flocks of sheep look up at
Is a thing more valuable than momentary happiness
I will grasp it with these hands
Believing in it

The sleeping lion is awakening
Chasing after its impossible dreams
And the sleepless town is eternally
Chasing after a futureless tomorrow
Alone again today, I close my eyes
Within my innocent heart
I am thinking of you
In this corrupted world
The love that can be born
Will surely shine brighter
Than anything else...
