Scapegoat 01:39
Scapegoat   拒絶するおまえの持論 拒絶するおまえの理論 おい覚えとけ  どうしようもねえクズ 見世物の残飯の腐臭  猿芝居の群衆   見えないふりして  見えてんだろ 知らないふりして  知ってんだろ おまえのことカス   You’re a pornstar but act as if you're a musician. What the fuck, cunt.   腐りきった肉の塊  おまえに言ってんだよ  カス Scapegoat Refusal of your opinion Refusal of your theory Remember that you're a piece of shit Rotten stench of the exhibition, crowd for the monkey show Turning a blind eye, but you see it Pretend you don’t know, but you do You’re a piece of shit You’re a pornstar but act as if you're a musician. What the fuck, cunt. Rotten pile of meat Talking to you, you fucking piece of shit

Only Ego 01:58
Only Ego   臆病で卑しい  俺の同い年 Dear MY DARKEST FRIENDSだなんて  笑い話   What gets stuck is only the ego   たいがいは  いつだって  まあ自分のせい そりゃそうだなんて言いきかせて  復讐を誓う What gets stuck is only the ego   限られた時間  語りだす自我   終わらそう  始めよう  いつものように 終わらそう  始めよう  さあ昨日のように 諦めを諦めた  いつかのあの日 行き詰まり  立ち止まる  自分のこの中に Only Ego Same age as me, a coward and menial Dear MY DARKEST FRIENDS, what a fucking joke What gets stuck is only the ego Most of the time yeah, it’s my fault Talk myself down and promise revenge What gets stuck is only the ego For a limited time, my ego speaks End it, start it, like always End it, start it, just like yesterday That day I gave up on giving up Reach the dead end and halt, inside myself

Dedicated To Humanity   何の為に生きるって? 生きる為にって何の為に? 選択肢は無い一本道   Dedicated to humanity   生きてる俺に言える事は  何もないかもしれない けど生きてる俺にしか言えない事が  何かあるかもしれない   Dedicated to humanity   生かし殺し  俺とおまえがいる それだけの事  おまえがボスだ カス同然さ  俺もおまえも でもそれが一つの話   日々の暮らし  俺等が生きた証 Dedicated To Humanity   What do we live for? To live for and what for?     No choices just a single path Dedicated to humanity I who exist might not be able to say anything  But there might be something I could say because I exist  Dedicated to humanity Make and break, you and I exist That’s all, you’re the boss Just like scum. you and I But thats one part of the story, our daily life, proof of our lives

Burn The Silence   あの名台詞に感銘を受けて 気取ってみたものの  ありのままの自分を見て黙りこむ 『死んだら灰になるだけさ』に'いいね' 今の俺じゃ死んだらただの埃さ   Burn the silence Let it burn   自意識と教養  生き抜く為の自問自答 借り物のままじゃ   もう進めない 逃げ出して  向き合って  気を病んで 俺は俺だって言い聞かしてるだけじゃ  何も変わらない   Burn the silence Let it burn   自分の声で叫び 自分の足で立ちたい 沈黙の未来 言葉に縛られた世界   言葉から噴き出した血  燻んだ色が俺と同じ   誇り高く  埃の様に舞う  今の俺にできること 手にした言葉の残骸  擦り付け 我が物顔で生きたくはない Burn The Silence   Impressed by that pronoun and put on an air but, Fell into silence seeing the real me "When you die you turn to ashes" stirs a quick 'Like' But so far I’ll only turn into dust Burn the silence Let it burn   Self awareness and culture, self questioning to survive Can’t go any further without my own things Escape, face it, sick in the head Telling myself to be myself won’t change anything Burn the silence Let it burn   Scream with my own voice Stand on my own feet Future of silence The world is strangled by words    Blood bursts from words I am the same as the smouldering colours   Now I can proudly dance in the air like dust Fragments of words in my hands, rub them Don’t want to live like I own the place

Call The Disorder   無難に俺の結末の未来が透ける   時代のせい 誰かのせい 酔っ払って  もう面倒くせえ ありのままの自分を愛せ?  それができたら俺は完成?   Call the disorder   叫ばしてくれ今はもう Call the disorder Call The Disorder   Bluntly, my ending become transparent Blaming the era Blame it on others I’m so drunk, can’t be fucked Love your true self? If I can do that, then am I complete?   Call the disorder   Let me scream for now   Call the disorder

ex Owner Is Fucked   俺の親友  彼の親友  良く言えばそんな関係 金の切れ目が縁の切れ目  今はそんな関係   ex Owner is fucked   俺の恩師  彼の道具 いつからかそんな関係 欲に塗れて仲間も騙す  彼のビジネス   ex Owner is fucked   金が親友  金が全て 神楽に胡坐をかいて 火影の灯  踏みにじる  過去の話   ex Owner is fucked   俺にとって おまえは道具 俺にとって おまえは道具 俺にとって おまえは道具 俺にとって おまえは道具   ex Owner is fucked ex Owner Is Fucked   My best friend, his best friend If I had to put it nicely, it was that kinda relationship Now our relationship is just about money   ex Owner is fucked   My mentor, his tool It's been like that since some time ago Blinded by greed, he even betrayed his friends - that’s his business     ex Owner is fucked   Money is his best friend, money is everything Sitting cross-legged on the sacred Kagura Spoiling the light of Hokage, a past story   ex Owner is fucked   For me you are tool For me you are tool For me you are tool For me you are tool   ex Owner is fucked

Leave Me Alone   まず戦略  売れる法則  フェス出たいなら誰と繋がる? 流通はどこ?  担当は誰?  客がいねえのはあのライブハウスのせい   Fuck, Leave me alone That really burns me up!   まだやってんの?  TV出ないの? それで飯は食えてんの? いいなおまえは好きに生きて  俺も自由に生きてみたいだと?   Fuck, Leave me alone That really burns me up!   何の為に  誰の為に  それぞれが生きてるか知らねえけど 俺は俺の  おまえはおまえ やり方があんだろ  うぜえな  ほっとけよ Leave Me Alone   First comes a strategy, a method to sell Who to connect with to play at a fest? Which distributor ? Who’s in charge? Can’t draw a crowd because of that venue   Fuck, Leave me alone That really burns me up!   You're still doing it? Haven't been on TV yet? Can you make a living? Fuck, I wish I could live like you, just doing what you love?   Fuck, Leave me alone That really burns me up!   Don’t care what or who people live for I got my life, you have yours You have your own way, just  shut the fuck up

Blood Clot Of Pain   怒りと  嫌悪感の力に 寄り添って  今の俺がいる   I am hatred   おまえからみれば  俺が悪いし 俺からみれば  おまえがいけすかねえ I am hatred   袂を分かつ事に  後悔の気持ちは無い 感情に蝕まれた  愚かな自分の背中  また押してくれるのは  哀しいかなこの  憎しみの気持ち   屈辱を栄光にかえる光 憤懣を破滅にかえる影   闇は深いほどいい  深ければ深いほどいい 憐れみを纏い  無様を結った 痛みの血栓が知る  そう人知れず知る   争いや憎しみの果てに 学んだ事の意味を今考える   I am hatred Blood Clot Of Pain   I exist with anger and guilt beside me   I am hatred   From your point of view I'm the bad one But from my point of view you just make me sick   I am hatred   No regret in parting ways Sadly it's the hatred inside that drives my emotionally subverted self   Light that change Humiliation to glory  The shadows change hatred to destruction   After all this conflict and hatred, I think to myself of the meaning of what I’ve learnt I am hatred   I am hatred

Honorable Death   吐き捨てる意地  もう 戻れない道 剥き出しの心臓を握る   かけがえないものと引き換えに差し出した命  涙流し  何が正しい  何色にも染まる放射線のよう   Nevermind Whatever  Honorable death  Thats good enough    二極化された世界  出来損ないの道険しい  一人一つ役目を果たす  誰がために  誰がために   もういいだろう?  俺は俺の死を知りたい 妄想だろ? それが正義?   Nevermind  Whatever  Honorable death  Thats good enough Honorable Death   Spitting out ego Can’t turn back on this path Clenching the naked heart   Gave my life for something so special Shed tears, what's right? Like radiation that stains any colour   Nevermind Whatever  Honorable death  Thats good enough    Bipolar world, tough road for the failed ones One person, one role Who is for whom?   It’s enough, I want to know my own death Just a delusion, right? Is that justice?   Nevermind  Whatever  Honorable death  Thats good enough

Sacrifice 02:22
Sacrifice   食えない孤独  飲めない未来 全部押し込んでぶちまける 騙し騙し自分を騙し  見えた世界が今なんだ   This is sacrifice   捨てる神あれば拾う神あり なんて  すがるのはいつも神頼み 代わる 代わる 入れ替わる未来 If もしもさんは  常に親友   どうせ分かりっこねえ  行き先不明の旅なんだ  人生を犠牲にした人生 乾杯の数が答えのはずさ   This is sacrifice Sacrifice   The loneliness of not being able to eat, a future of not being able to drink Squeeze it all together and vent This is the reality I see after fooling myself over and over again   This is sacrifice   The one you always rely on at the end of the day is god Future changing, in and out 'If' is my best friend   You’ll never understand This is a journey to a destination unknown Life sacrificed life The number of drinks is the answer   This is sacrifice

音我苦 -ONGAKU-   日常は変わらない  きっと日々は過ぎる 世界は終わらない  きっとどうにでもなる 将来の事 仕事の事 恋愛 人間関係に疲れ 楽しみない もう辞めたい いっそこのまま もう死にたい?   がなり  叫び  汗に塗れ 此処に鳴らす  俺の音我苦 音に  我がの  苦しみと説く それが俺の  俺の音我苦 一瞬の楽しいの為に重ねる  このしんどい 一瞬の嬉しいの為に重ねる  この苦しい 衝撃を受け  バンドを始め  選んだ自分と  選ばれた自分 なりたい自分に  なれない自分と  諦め告げるのも  最後は自分   がなり  叫び  汗に塗れ 此処で鳴らす  俺の音我苦 音に  我がの  苦しみと説く それが俺の  俺の音我苦   All roads lead to life All roads lead to death   生きがいだから  楽しい事だから  皆は音に楽しいと書いて  これこそが音楽だなんて言う それじゃ埋まらない  それに当てはまらない 音や詩になれない情念の掃き溜め それでもやるんだよ   がなり  叫び  汗に塗れ 共に鳴らす  俺の音我苦 音に  我がの  苦しみと説く それが俺の  俺の音我苦   がなり  叫び  汗に塗れた 俺の音我苦 音に  我がの  苦しみと説く 俺の音我苦 音我苦 -ONGAKU-   Everyday life won’t change, tomorrow will surely go by The world won't end, it will work out some how Tired of thinking about the future, work, love, relationships Can’t enjoy myself, I wanna quit, am I better off dead?   Scream, shout, all covered in sweat ONGAKU that I play here Suffer in my own sound That’s my ONGAKU All that tough work for a moment of joy All that suffering for a moment of happiness  Shocked and inspired, started a band Chose myself and I was chosen At the end of the day I’m the one to make the call to give up on trying to be that someone I wanted to become   Scream, shout, all covered in sweat ONGAKU that I play here Suffer in my own sound   All roads lead to life All roads lead to death   Because it’s my reason to live, because it’s fun People say music is fun, to be enjoyed, and that’s the beauty of music But that’s not enough and doesn’t hold true My emotions are a pile of garbage that won't become sound, nor poetry Even so, I still keep doing it   Scream, shout, all covered in sweat ONGAKU that I play here Suffer in my own sound

To Live Is To Die, To Die Is To Live   死んだあいつ 死ぬんだ俺も   生活の 生きがいの 人生の語呂合わせ 優れた人間は生活ではなく人生を生きるって 誰かが言ってたな どっちもままならない 今の俺はなんなんだ?   TO LIVE IS TO DIE TO DIE IS TO LIVE   空気を読んで世渡りしてるうちに ただの空気になって 人知れず 死んでいく 生きたままで 死んでいく   TO LIVE IS TO DIE TO DIE IS TO LIVE   初めまして さようなら  雨音に消えるこの足音  流れ流され この世を去れ   To Live Is To Die, To Die Is To Live   He died I’ll soon or later die too   A life of fun is the life that I live for Somebody said that a good person doesn't just live, they live their life Which is it? Neither is what I am   TO LIVE IS TO DIE TO DIE IS TO LIVE   Reading between the lines to get along with life, then I became nothing Nobody will notice my death, dead but alive    TO LIVE IS TO DIE TO DIE IS TO LIVE   Nice to meet you, goodbye The sound of footsteps vanishes in the sound of rain Flow and shed, leave this life
