Lyrics
Japanese | Romaji | English |
---|---|---|
ブラックロックシューター | burak kurokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
何処へ行ったの? | doko e itta no? | Where did you go? |
聞こえますか? | kikoemasu ka? | Can you hear me? |
あとどれだけ叫べばいいのだろう | ato dore dake sakebeba ī nodarou | How much more should I shout? |
あとどれだけ泣けばいいのだろう | ato dore dake nakeba ī nodarou | How much more should I weep? |
もうやめて わたしはもう走れない | mō yamete watashi wa mō hashirenai | That's enough, I can't run anymore. |
いつか夢見た世界が閉じる | itsuka yumemita sekai ga tojiru | Someday the world I once dreamt of closes |
真っ暗で明かりもない | Makkurade akari mo nai | On this pitch-black |
崩れかけたこの道で | kuzure kaketa kono michi de | Crumbling road |
あるはずもないあの時の | aru hazu mo nai ano toki no | From the time that was never meant to be |
希望が見えた気がした | kibō ga mieta ki ga shita | I felt like I had a glimpse of hope |
どうして | dōshite | Why? |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
懐かしい記憶 | natsukashī kioku | Nostalgic memories |
ただ楽しかったあの頃を | tada tanoshikatta anogoro o | Of those times I really enjoyed |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
でも動けないよ | demo ugokenai yo | But I cannot move |
闇を駆ける星に願いを | yami o kakeru hoshininegai o | I wish upon the star that shoots through the darkness |
もう一度だけ走るから | mōichido dake hashirukara | Because I will run just one more time |
怖くて震える声でつぶやく | kowakute furueru koe de tsubuyaku | I mutter in a frightened, quivering voice |
わたしの名前を呼んで | watashi no namaewoyonde | Call my name |
夜明けを抱く空 境界線までの距離 | yoake o daku sora kyōkai-sen made no kyori | The sky embracing dawn, the distance to the borderline |
あともう一歩届かない | ato mōippo todokanai | One further step won't reach it |
こらえた涙があふれそうなの 今下を向かないで | koraeta namida ga afuresōna no konge o mukanai de | The tears I've held back are about to overflow. Don't look down now |
止まってしまう | tomatte shimau | Or I'll stop |
未来を生きていたいんだ | mirai o ikite itai nda | I want to live the future |
わかったの 思い出して | wakatta no omoidashite | I know. I remember, |
強く 強く 信じるの | tsuyoku tsuyoku shinjiru no | And firmly, firmly believe it. |
そうよ | sō yo | That's right |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
優しい匂い | yasashī nioi | That gentle fragrance |
痛いよ 辛いよ 飲み込む言葉 | itai yo tsurai yo nomikomu kotoba | It hurts, it's hard swallowing down those words |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
動いてこの足! | ugoite kono ashi! | Let my feet move! |
世界を超えて | sekai o koete | Overtake the world |
最初からわかっていた ここにいることを | saisho kara wakatte ita koko ni iru koto o | I knew it from the beginning that you'd be here |
わたしのなかの 全ての勇気が | watashi no naka no subete no yūki ga | All the courage inside me |
火をともして | hi o tomo shite | Lights a fire |
もう逃げないよ | mō nigenai yo | I won't run away anymore |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
ひとりじゃないよ | hitori janai yo | You are not alone |
声をあげて泣いたって構わない | koe o agete naitatte kamawanai | It doesn't matter if I raise my voice and weep |
ブラックロックシューター | burakku rokku shūtā | Black Rock Shooter |
見ていてくれる | mite ite kureru | Watch me |
今からはじまるの わたしの物語 | ima kara hajimaru no watashi no monogatari | My story starts now |
忘れそうになったら この歌を | wasuresō ni nattara kono uta o | If I ever start to forget |
歌うの | utau no | I'll sing this song |
