Ground zero
[ゼロ地点]

あの蜘蛛の糸得ない
炎と燃えよ
彼の雲の意図追えない
この星よ・・・

教えて己とは・・・？
教えて己とは・・・？

あの蜘蛛の糸得ない
炎と燃えよ
彼の雲の意図追えない
この星よ・・・

教えて己とは・・・？
教えて己とは・・・？

逆立つ怒りと連れ去る荒波
あなたを救えぬ無力さに
母なる大地引き裂かれた祈り
あなたまで届く歌も無い・・・

教えて己とは・・・？
教えて己とは・・・？

English 英訳

Ground Zero

You won't earn the spider's thread*
Burn in the flames
I can't follow the intentions behind his clouds**
O, this planet..

Tell me, what am I...?
Tell me, what am I...?

You won't earn the spider's thread*
Burn in the flames
I can't follow the intentions behind his clouds**
O, this planet..

Tell me, what am I...?
Tell me, what am I...?

Bristling fury and sweeping, raging waves
In powerlessness to save you
A shredded prayer to Mother Earth
There is no song that will reach you...

Tell me, what am I...?
Tell me, what am I...?

* The first two lines are definitely a reference to an old, famous short story about a spider lowering a silken thread into hell to rescue a man. ("Kumo no Ito".)

** This line is a largely a homonym of the first line; it's more about the sound of the words than the meaning.
