the WORLD
Vocals: Nightmare
Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
Because I can’t let anyone interfere
With everything that’ll come about from now on
The future that the fruit told me of
The city that has forgotten reasoning
The present time is distorted black
Dreams, turn into ideals
Why? Am I a broken Messiah?
Everyone wished for a “finale”…
Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
I can’t let anyone interfere
With everything that’ll come about from now on
Someday, I’ll show you
A shining sky
Why? Am I a broken Messiah?
Everyone dreamt of a “paradise”…
Within the spreading darkness, we exchanged vows of revolution
An evil flower that sprouted because it was loved
I can’t let anyone interfere
With everything that’ll come about from now on
Someday, I’ll show you
A shining world
the WORLD
Vocals: Nightmare
Hirogaru yami no naka kawashiatta kakumei no chigiri
Aishita yue ni mebaeta aku no hana
Kore kara saki otozureru de arou subete o
Dare ni mo jamasaseru wake ni wa ikanai kara
Kajitsu ga tsugeta mirai
Risei o wasureta machi
Kuroku yuganda ima o
Yume, risou ni kaeru
Doushite? Boku wa kowareta meshia?
Dare mo ga nozonda “owari” o…
Hirogaru yami no naka kawashiatta kakumei no chigiri
Aishita yue ni mebaeta aku no hana
Kore kara saki otozureru de arou subete o
Dare ni mo jamasaseru wake ni wa ikanai
Itsuka boku ga misete ageru
Hikarikagayaku sora o
Doushite? Boku wa kowareta meshia?
Dare mo ga yumemita “rakuen” o…
Hirogaru yami no naka kawashiatta kakumei no chigiri
Aishita yue ni mebaeta aku no hana
Kore kara saki otozureru de arou subete o
Dare ni mo jamasaseru wake ni wa ikanai
Itsuka boku ga misete ageru
Hikarikagayaku sekai o
the WORLD
歌: ナイトメア
作詞: RUKA
作曲: RUKA
広がる闇の中 交わし合った 革命の契り
愛した故に芽生えた悪の花
これから先訪れるであろう全てを
誰にも邪魔させるワケにはいかないから
果実が告げた未来
理性を忘れた街
黒く歪んだ現在を
夢、理想に変える
どうして? 僕はこわれた救世主?
誰もが望んだ「終幕」を…
広がる闇の中 交わし合った 革命の契り
愛した故に芽生えた悪の花
これから先訪れるであろう全てを
誰にも邪魔させるワケにはいかない
いつか僕が見せてあげる
光り輝く空を
どうして? 僕はこわれた救世主?
誰もが夢みた「楽園」を…
広がる闇の中 交わし合った 革命の契り
愛した故に芽生えた悪の花
これから先訪れるであろう全てを
誰にも邪魔させるワケにはいかない
いつか僕が見せてあげる
光り輝く世界を

Comment by cartoonlin — October 30, 2006 #
I adore this song, the lyrics and the music itself have some strange but strong meaning for myself. I even like Raito more after listening to this song, poor child, following his own path alone…

how do I download? I only get the sendspace main page
Comment by subrosa — December 15, 2006 #
Ya man. This song’s lyrics fit soo perfectly with the anime of Death Note and the mindframe of Light.
Comment by digitalmaster287 — December 16, 2006 #
I Loooooooove this song so much! It’s just… sugoi =D.
Shikashi… May I correct something? The last sentence of the kana is wrong: it says “いつか僕が見せてあげる 光り輝く空を (Itsuka boku ga misete ageru hikarikagayaku sora wo)”, when it should say ” いつか僕が見せてあげる 光り輝く世界 を(Itsuka boku ga misete ageru hikarikagayaku sekai wo)”, if I’m right.
Anyway, thans SO much for the lyrics and translation ^^ Domo arigatou gozaimasu!

Good luck

Comment by Reda Mgharie — December 9, 2008 #
Within the spreading darkness I pledge a vow to the revolution, I can’t let anyone interrupt it. The future that the forbidden fruit foretell, the ending that everyone wants, within the spreading darkness I pledge a vow to the revolution, I can’t let any one interrupt it. Some day…… I’ll show you a bright and ideal world. I dreamed a dream that no one could see, I threw away every thing I didn’t need, I’m holding these feelings I can’t give up in my heart, even if my feeling fall victim to the shackles of sacrifice, in between reality an my ideal, I can’t hold back my flooding impulses, because I have a strong desire to accomplish (deceit) (fear) (vanity) (melancholy) I’m not weak enough to believe any of these negative perceptions. I’m a trickster who doesn’t know solitude
