- Japanese
- 紅く染まる腕で君を抱きしめながら
- 蒼く照らされた涙を月に捧げる
- 胸に刻まれた傷跡を見つめながら
- 「もう戻れない・・・」と夜が囁く
- さあ目を閉じて祈りを捧げればいい
- もうお前に残す言葉は何もないから
- 神を奮い立たせる闇を切り裂く声に
- 泣き叫ぶがいい、すべて終わらせよう
- 私の胸にただ黙って抱かれればいい
- 終わることのない安らぎが此処にあるから
- すべての罪を償い生まれ変わればいい
- お前に残された術は何もない・・・
- さあ目を閉じて祈りを捧げればいい
- もうお前に残す言葉は何もないから

- Akaku somaru ude de kimi wo dakishime nagara
- Aoku terasareta namida wo tsuki ni sasageru
- Mune ni kizamareta kizuato wo mitsume nagara
- "Mou modore nai..." to yoru ga sasayaku
- Saa me wo tojite inori wo sasagereba ii
- Mou omae ni nokosu kotoba wa nanimo nai kara
- Kami wo furuitataseru yami wo kiri saku koe ni
- Naki sakebu ga ii, subete owarase you
- Watashi no mune ni tada damatte dakarereba ii
- Owaru koto no nai yasuragi ga koko ni aru kara
- Subete no tsumi wo tsugunai umarekawareba ii
- Omae ni nokosareta sube wa nanimo nai....
- Saa me wo tojite inori wo sasagereba ii
- Mou omae ni nokosu kotoba wa nanimo nai kara
- Unofficial English translation
- I hold you as my arms are dyed crimson
- And offer up my blue-lit tears to the moon
- As I gazed at the scars on your chest
- The night whispered, "You can't go back now..."
- Now close your eyes and offer up your prayers
- There are no words left to you
- Cry and shout with a voice that rips through
- The darkness God loves so much, and end it all
- Just lie quiet in my arms as I hold you
- Because there is endless peace right here
- Atone for all your sins and be reborn
- There's nothing else you can do...
- Now close your eyes and offer up your prayers
- There are no words left to you
