I didn’t romanise the title this time because I don’t know how it should be read. I’m tempted to say ‘zerosenka,’ but I’m not certain. 零戦 (‘zerosen’) is a type of fighter plane. The song deals with war, so I guess it’s related.
Also, apparently ‘rail’ can mean ‘to complain angrily.’ I… didn’t even know you could use it in that way.
歌詞
Ah…世界中 火の海…雨
ゆらり揺られ…
Ah…陽炎に 蠢く人
永久に願う…
幾多の星 君を探してる
この戦火の中 君を探し出す…
幾千の魂のレール
凍える 夜空に もう響いて…
世界中の空へと
Ah 忘れられない…
闇さえ…消えてく時
Ah…世界中 火の海…雨
闇は今も…
Ah…陽炎に 蠢く人
永久に眠る
戦火の中 君を探してる
この戦火で今 君を探し出す…
幾千の魂のレール
凍える 夜空に もう響いて…
世界中空へ
Ah…離さないで
Ah…忘れないで
幾千の魂のレール
煌めく空
君に出逢えた空…

Translation
Ah… The world is a sea of flames. Rain.
It gently sways…
Ah… People writhe in the heat haze
Eternally wishing…
I search for you over countless stars
And I find you in the fires of war…
The rails of thousands of souls
Now echo through the frozen sky…
Aiming for the world’s sky.
Ah… I cannot forget.
When even the darkness… disappears.
Ah… The world is a sea of flames. Rain.
The darkness remains even now.
Ah… The people writhing in the heat haze
Sleep for eternity.
In the fires of war, I search for you.
I find you here, now, in the fires of war.
The rails of thousands of souls
Now echo through the frozen sky…
Aiming for the world’s sky.
Ah… Don’t let go.
Ah… Don’t forget me.
The rails of thousands of souls
In the sparkling sky—
I met you beneath this sky…

Ah, and little funny trivia – Mitsubishi A6M (Zero Fighter) was called “Reisen” by its pilots.

There’s a little mistake in transcription
In the last line, it should “ikusen no tamashii no reeru”

I’m still confused about the meaning of title.
At the begining I thought it meant “零”+”戦火”(no war).But it was a little odd.

To begin with, I misread 零 as 冷, so I thought the title was “The Cold Flames of War.” 零 just makes everything more difficult to interpret.
Maybe I should just ask KamiyaShiro about it on Twitter…
