Azalea no Shinzou

Heart / Tohma

I want you to forgive this filthy life
That’s begun to flake away from God’s love
I hope that this mechanical voice and heart
Will reach far away to where you are
Emotions and affections destroyed everyone
A night that felt like I was falling from a cliff
“You’re stronger than anyone,” you told me
“You can change everything,” you said
I don’t need to be comforted like that, anymore

No matter how many times we hurt each other
Or how battered we become
I’ll live while absorbing the lives of others
Even if we’re separated
Even if I’m killed
I’ll still be breathing somewhere

Let’s talk about days long past
Let’s talk about a future far from now
Even if no one should remember me
Your memories will bring me back

No matter how many billions or trillions of stars fall
Let’s head for the horizon in a big ship
Blocking off the innocent yet cruel tomorrow
As if to correct some grave mistake,
Let’s forget

I noticed the final signal, and laughed
Pretending that it was nothing
That nothing would change
I choked on the words
Surely, even the fact we lived has been lost
If, for instance, there was no going back,
Neither for you, nor for me

Even if we comfort each other
Even if we fall to peaces
I’ll live while absorbing the lives of others
Even if we’re separated
Even if I’m killed
I swear

Even if I’m not born again, or this city sinks,
The throbbing continues to cry at my ear as always
Stab love into my heart
And show me a dream that quietly fades away

—

Stab love into my heart

Even if I were to cease existing

There was some small speck of worth in my filthy life

Since it’s the end,

Please allow me to make that kind of wish
