BAD DREAM
samekirenu yume no omosa ni unasare
BAD DREAM
nigete mo nigete mo oikakete kuru


IN THE DARK
yami no naka samayou ore ga mita mono wa
IN THE EYES
awaku aoi hikari no genei

nanika ni osareru you ni (IN THE LIGHT)
suikomarete iku
machi-ukete ita tamashii ga moe-hajimete iru

VIOLATOR
hikari no mae tachi-hadakatta mono wa
VICIOUS MIND
minikui tsurashita ore datta

nanika ga ayatsuru you ni (SHOOT AND KILL)
uchi-nomeshite iku
ikiotte ita tamashii ga moehatte iru

itsuka tsukami-kaketa
tada massugu na yume o
iishienu kodoku ni
usuware se o muketa

hibiwareta maboroshi samasu zawameki wa
kioku ni hisomu sakebi

AT PRESENT
mbayui hikari no naka ni mita mono wa
AT THAT
magire mo nai osanai hi no yume

nanika wo motomete (RIGHT AWAY)
mou ichido umare-kawaru
yomigaette kuru
tamashii ga
moetsukiru made

kyozou ni michita genjitsu ni mukatte
mujun shita kokoro toki-hajimeru
hibiwareta maboroshi samasu zawameki wa
kioku ni hisomu sakebi

IN DAZZLE I WAS READY TO BE DESTROYED
UNDER THE POWER, WAS INVISIBLE
WHEN I SAW THE TRUTH, I HEARD MY GHOST CRY

Translation
Bad dream
The weight of this dream from which I cannot wake gives me nightmares
Bad dream
I run and run, but still it comes after me

In the dark
What I saw, drifting in the dark
In the eyes
Is a phantom surrounded by a faint blue light

As if afraid of something (in the light)
I'm sucked in
The spirit awaiting me begins to burn

Violator
What blocked the light
Vicious mind
Was myself, an ugly expression on my face

As if being controlled by something (shoot and kill)
I beat it up
My spirit that still remained burns brightly

The straightfoward dream
That I had once almost grasped
Was lost to indescribable fear
And I turned my back

The noise that awakens the cracked illusion
Is the scream lurking in my memories

At present
What I saw in the dazzling light
At that
Was without a doubt a dream of my youth

Longing for something (right away)
Once again I'll be reborn
My spirit
Will come back to life
Until it burns away

Facing a reality full of pretense
I begin to unleash my contradictory heart
The noise that awakens the cracked illusion
Is the scream lurking in my memories

In dazzle I was ready to be destroyed
Under the power, was invisible
When I saw the truth, I heard my ghost cry
