ascention

歌詞

夢の随に　時は流れて
人の現も　徒と消えてゆく

願い重ねて
シナバ―の朱は
血になって　流れ出す

いくら積み上げても不完全で
見えた永遠掴んで　千切れる願い
身体を棄てて知る道
ただ繰り返す問い
たとえ何かを失くしても

河の流れも　枯れて湧き出で
時に遊ぶは　人に非ずや

マイカは光る
雲になり　空に舞う

いくら積み上げても不完全で
探す道など　最初から
矛盾に満ちて
身体を棄てて知る意味
悲しみから逃げて
きっと心も失くしたの

Translation

At the mercy of my dreams, time flows by.
My human consciousness simply fades away.

My wishes accumulate.
Cinnabar scarlet
Becomes blood and flows away.

No matter how much wisdom I gain, I am incomplete.
I wished to seize eternity, visible before me. That wish is all torn up now.
Knowledge of this path comes after one casts their body away.
I keep asking myself questions
Like, even if I lose something in the process—

The flow of the river withers and gushes forth.
The one who occasionally plays there is human, are they not?

My wishes accumulate.
The mica sparkles.
It becomes a cloud and dances in the sky…

No matter how much wisdom I gain, I am incomplete.
The path I was searching for was, from the start,
Riddled with contradictions.
Knowledge of this meaning comes after one casts their body away.
I run away from my sadness.
I must have gotten rid of my heart, too…
