Katayoku no Tori [English Adaptation Lyrics]

[As this judgment stands, with paths fate demands

As this tempest answers witches call

No one escapes the sin that lives on here

It lives only to devour all]

As the waves swell in force, as the wind swirls

As the coming storm drawn on strength, banners unfurl.

Signal the start, all the pieces gather

Bells start to ring

The words that were said start this game anew

As the banquet starts, let this grand chaos ensue

While this night loops, irregularly, chase those words that seem to ring true

[Is this hope forgotten?] As I descend into hell

[Is this a sin?] The visions seen as I fell

Spell, out all the sins, laid out on wings that may only decay

Time will tell

Don’t cry for your sins

Break deceptive words, pass illusions by, don’t be fooled

Just rise this once over destiny’s gravity. Seize the day!

Just take all the words you know to be true, hold them inside you, chase them to pursue

All the paths that let this endless night begin anew

[Are you without sin?

Do you trust judgment to pass you by without a glance?]

(Passing by, ignorant)

(Staring at all the wounds here. What causes this pain now?)

Do you know all the things that remain unsaid here?

Do you know the cause that leads weaker men to fear?

These illusions now bleed like fresh wounds

This deep hatred that lives in my heart now blooms

Calling out here, demanding that I act on feelings sincere

[This long hidden secret] If a bird were to lose a wing now

[Can you still keep it?] What sound would it make going down?

Calling a name, making it clear to the sky and the earth

who’s to blame

Just choose not to run

Accept errors made, long held debts repaid. Let truth lie.

And let the magic change everything’s form as this time goes by

With sorrow and love hold these frail truths close, let them make the most

Of answers come too late

Hold tightly all the things you might see breaking free, within.

This shining light seems to just grow above, dazzling all who choose not to see it

Miracles pour out from the gaps that our collective sins now endure

This world long entangled by promises is shaken to the core

Don’t speak out those words (That now spell how this world will change)

Don’t listen to them (Don’t consider how those words arrange)

Don’t cry for your sins

Break illusions seen. Change how you have been. Just change fate.

Rise up from the depths that bind you to your past and seize the day!

Just look in your heart. Find the truths held there. Be more self aware

Cast aside despair

Let your own emotions blossom in your heart, and stay

(It’s impossible to find the secret if you cannot realize the love)
