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 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

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 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 02:14
lyrics

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 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 03:50
lyrics

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 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

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 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

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 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 03:49
lyrics

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 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 04:12
lyrics
buy track
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 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
lyrics

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 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- 03:51

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 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

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 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
