D'espairsray: Closer to ideal | Japanese & English Lyrics

Japanese

Closer to ideal

[myself under control]　吐き出された溜め息と　"さよなら"

感覚鈍った　暑い夜に

Wake up

くだらない事ばかり溢れて　目を塞いだ

[I'd sell my soul]

燃え上がる傷負う魂

[heart like a hole]

失うものはないさ

儚く散りゆく為に　深く刻む

無邪気な君達は今誰の為綺麗な心を塞いだか　分からない

Wake up

[scene]　ただ１つだけ手にするまでは　伝えたい

[I'd sell my soul]

揺らぎだす傷負う魂

[heart like a hole]

怖れる事はないさ

感覚を失うまで　先導け　深く

あの宙を眺めても見えない...輝き　忘れた

眠れる月と今　目醒める　だから...

腐敗の青い炎　影を抉り　幻想の世界を描く

ゆがんだ世界に広がる　憂い　孤独を飲み込め

[I'd sell my soul]

儚く散りゆくすべてへ

[heart like a hole]

今ここで終わらないさ

眠れない夜を越えて

輝く場所へ
硝子の夢を胸に抱き　壊れるまで...

Romaji

Closer to ideal

[myself under control]　Haki dasareta tameiki to　"sayonara"

Kankaku nibutta　atsui yoru ni

Wake up

Kudaranai koto bakari afurete　me wo fusaida

[I'd sell my soul]

Moe agaru kizu ou tamashii

[heart like a hole]

Ushinau mono wa nai sa

Hakanaku chiri yuku tame ni　fukaku kizamu

Mujaki na kimitachi wa ima dare no tame kirei na kokoro wo fusaida ka　wakaranai

Wake up

[scene]　Tada hitotsu dake te ni suru made wa　tsutaetai

[I'd sell my soul]

Yuragi dasu kizu ou tamashii

[heart like a hole]

Osoreru koto wa nai sa

Kankaku wo ushinau made　saki michibike　fukaku

Ano sora wo nagamete mo mienai... kagayaki　wasureta

Nemureru tsuki to ima　mezameru　dakara...

Fuhai no aoi honoo　kage wo eguri　gensou no sekai wo egaku

Yuganda sekai ni hirogaru　ui　kodoku wo nomi kome

[I'd sell my soul]

Hakanaku chiri yuku subete e

[heart like a hole]

Ima koko de owaranai sa

Nemurenai yoru wo koete

Kagayaku basho e
Garasu no yume wo mune ni daki　kowareru made...

English

Closer to ideal

[myself under control]　With a heaved sigh　"Goodbye"

Senses numbed　in the hot night

Wake up

With trivialities flowing　I closed my eyes

[I'd sell my soul]

A spirit bearing burning wounds

[heart like a hole]

There's nothing to lose

In order to scatter fleetingly*　I carve it in deeply

All of you, innocent, don't know for whom you've now closed up　your pretty hearts

Wake up

[scene]　I want to say it until even one hand　grasps it:

[I'd sell my soul]

A spirit bearing wavering wounds

[heart like a hole]

There's nothing to fear

Until you lose your senses　lead the way　deeply

You can't see it even if you stare at the sky... radiance　forgotten

Since now you awaken　with the sleeping moon...

A blue flame of decay　hollows out the shadows　and conjurs a world of illusion

The gloom that spreads in the　warped world　may it swallow up the loneliness

[I'd sell my soul]

To everything which scatters fleetingly*

[heart like a hole]

It doesn't end here

Overcoming sleepless nights

To a shining place
Holding glass dreams in my heart　until they break...

* This phrasing is often used in writing to conjur images of cherry blossom petals, with their fleeting lifespan, being 'scattered' by the wind. It's often a metaphor in lyrics for death, and how short life is.
