It seems like these lyrics were transcribed by ear by a fan, so there might be some areas that aren’t formatted in the same way as in the booklet. Please let me know if there are any errors and I’ll fix them up right away…!

The song itself seems to be about Byakuren riding her motorbike through an empty skyscraper after something bad happened…


歌詞

自分の選んだ道で 膝を突いて倒れた
いいさ いっそ 壊した

朝を待つ 声は今も悲しみに震えてる
でも 一緒 みんなそんなもんさ

見よう見まね間違えて
独りで灰になってしまうこと ずっと恐れて

導火線に火を点けてくれる誰かを待っても
きっと 一生孤独なら

自分にもう嘘はつかない 心に決めた約束
偽りの仮面は捨てた

傷の音を体に浴びて 変われる予感を開いた拳で掴んで

駆け抜けろ夜の摩天楼 鮮やかに煌めく街並み
夜明けはまだ遠くで眠る

振り払う孤独な感情 繰り返す日々禅問答
追い風かき集めて走り抜ける

自分の大切なもの 人のため捨てること
だって 正解でも

新しい世界が見たい 自分勝手とは違う
どこまで耐えればいいんだ

さよならもう二度と会わない 心に秘めた約束
夜風が吹き飛ばす涙

白く裂ける朝靄の中
誰もいない交差点 進むか戻るか

隠してた醜い自分も 愛した人を燃えるように
全てをぶち壊して走れ

駆け抜けろ夜の摩天楼 焚き付けろ最後の衝動
嗚呼夜が遠ざかってく どこまででも飛ばせ

Translation

I fell to my knees on the path I chose.
I’d rather have destroyed it.

I wait for dawn to come, and my voice still trembles with sadness.
But everyone’s the same.

I learned by watching others and I made my mistakes.
I was always afraid of becoming ash by myself…

Even if I wait for someone to light the fuse for me,
I’ll be alone forever. If so…

I won’t lie to myself again. I made that promise deep in my heart.
I threw away my false masks.

I basked in the sound of my wounds and seized premonitions of change in my fist.

I race through the skyscraper at night. The townscape glistens vividly.
Dawn is still far away. I sleep.

I shake off my loneliness. I live through the same days, asking senseless questions.
Scraping together a tailwind, I’ll race to the end.

Sacrificing something important to me for the sake of someone else—
It’s the right thing to do, but still…

I want to see a new world. It isn’t selfish!
How much more must I endure…

Farewell. We will never meet again. I concealed that promise in my heart.
The night wind blows away my tears.

In the white morning mist
I am at a deserted intersection. Shall I continue? Shall I return?

So I can burn away my hidden ugliness and the one I loved,
I’ll destroy everything and run!

I’ll race through the skyscraper at night and stir up one final impulse.
Ah… The night dies away. I’ll fly to the ends of the earth…
