Toward the Light

I kept the dusty telescope Hidden in the attic loft It hasn't found a single planet But it keeps the darkness soft The world outside is loud and rushed No one looks up at the ceiling But here, between the wooden beams I hold onto a forgotten feeling I'm drawing lines on tattered paper A blueprint only I can read It's the only place where I can plant The special kind of hopeful seed The architect of the tiny star Is working hard inside this room It doesn't shine for anyone far It just lights up this lonely gloom A memory, a quiet vow Engraved right here, right now My tiny star, only mine A perfect, beautiful design I remember all the words you said Beneath the streetlights' flickering haze That even dust can gather up the light And guide us through the winding maze I trace the map of constellations Where every scar is a bright spot This messy, flawed imagination Is everything the world is not The architect of the tiny star Is working hard inside this room It doesn't shine for anyone far It just lights up this lonely gloom A memory, a quiet vow Engraved right here, right now My tiny star, only mine A perfect, beautiful design And if the sky should ever break apart If the whole world decides to disappear I'll build it back inside my empty heart I have the blueprints, I have them here The architect of the tiny star Is working hard inside this room It doesn't shine for anyone far It just lights up this lonely gloom A memory, a quiet vow Engraved right here, right now My tiny star, only mine A perfect, beautiful design

青空の下で叫んでみたい 風が背中を押してくるんだ 君の笑顔 それだけで十分さ 走れ走れ止まらずに 夢の向こう側 見たいから 青空を突き抜けて 僕らはただ走るだけ 迷いも涙も吹き飛ばして 未来へ スプリント 靴ひもがほどけても気にしない 傷ついたって前を向くんだ 君の声が 僕の地図になる 追いかけるのさ 太陽を どこまでも

Under the crimson moon… can you hear the spirits move? Shadows fall like petals in the cold night air Lanterns flicker softly as if whispering a prayer I walk the path where ancient echoes never fade The shamisen is crying like a ghost beneath the blade My heartbeat follows taiko thunder in the dark A silent vow is burning like an amber spark And though the wind is calling out my name I feel your memory flicker in the flame So guide me through the night Through the storm of fading light Koto strings are pulling me Into the place I used to be Even if the sky divides I will face the shifting tides On this road of fractured fate I rise again—I won’t hesitate Footsteps echo softly on the broken shrine Your shadow dances somewhere between worlds and time A shaken breath, a tremor running through my chest I chase the truth that vanished with the last sunset The shakuhachi is crying like a wounded soul The night reveals the scars I never could control And though the past is pulling like a chain I’ll cut it loose and step beyond the pain So guide me through the night Through the storm of fading light Koto strings are pulling me Into the place I used to be Even if the sky divides I will face the shifting tides On this road of fractured fate I rise again—I won’t hesitate If everything should fall apart tonight I’ll carve my name inside the dying light From every wound, from every tear I bleed A thousand prayers will carry me So guide me through the night Through the storm of fading light Koto strings won’t let me go They lead me where the spirits flow Even if the world divides I will stand against the tides On this path I choose my fate I rise again—no fear, no weight

走り出したこの道 風が頬を叩いてる 笑い声が遠く響く 見上げた空は果てしなく 青く広がるステージ 青空ダッシュ 未来へと 止まらないよ どこまでも 昨日の涙は置いていく 今ここから始めよう スニーカーに砂が入り それさえも気にしないで 仲間たちと駆け抜ける 何度転んでも立ち上がる 輝く夢を握りしめ 青空ダッシュ 未来へと 止まらないよ どこまでも 昨日の涙は置いていく 今ここから始めよう 何度転んでも立ち上がる 輝く夢を握りしめ 青空ダッシュ 未来へと 止まらないよ どこまでも 昨日の涙は置いていく 今ここから始めよう 何度転んでも立ち上がる 輝く夢を握りしめ 青空ダッシュ 未来へと 止まらないよ どこまでも 昨日の涙は置いていく 今ここから始めよう

Kicked the door down, swallowed the dust This city tastes like iron and rust No destination, just a burning wheel Got a heart made of scrap and cold steel Yeah, the lights go out Hear the engine shout Rusty Razor, cut the night Everything is black and white Rusty Razor, feel the speed Bleeding out the gasoline Cheap cigarettes and a bottle of gin Don't know where I end or where you begin Screaming tires on the wet concrete Dancing with the devils on the dead-end street Yeah, the lights go out Hear the engine shout Rusty Razor, cut the night Everything is black and white Rusty Razor, feel the speed Bleeding out the gasoline Faster... Faster... I said faster! Rusty Razor, cut the night Everything is black and white Rusty Razor, feel the speed Bleeding out the gasoline Bleeding out! Burning out!

They regulate the air, they regulate the sound Keep your face in the dirt, keep your ear to the ground Scanning the barcode tattooed on your soul While the man in the tower loses all control Check the pulse, is it beating or dead? Believe exactly what the television said Ignite the fuse Nothing to lose They light the fuse WE REFUSE! Breath in the smoke, choke on the lies! Tear down the curtain, open your eyes! The machine is turning, grinding the bone! Take back the power from the silicon throne! Pocket full of shells? No, pocket full of greed Planting the doubt like a poisonous seed Click, scroll, obey, repeat Marching like soldiers on a dead-end street Who gave the order? Who signed the deal? Can you feel the weight of the boot on your heel? Breath in the smoke, choke on the lies! Tear down the curtain, open your eyes! The machine is turning, grinding the bone! Take back the power from the silicon throne! It starts with a whisper... It starts with a whisper... It starts with a scream! IT STARTS WITH A SCREAM! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! Burn the machinery! Burn the machinery!
