瞑目 || Closed Eyes

日本語

跪け　我が運命（さだめ）
その手を取るのが罪だと言うなら
その咎　背負いましょう
君が微笑む未来のため

このまま　瞼　閉じれば
全て捨てて楽になれると
囁く　甘い誘いに
頭（かぶり）振って君を見上げる
歪んだその笑顔が
泣いてるように見えて

君を泣かせるような
弱くて脆い身体はいらない
その涙止めるため
何回だって立ち上がろう

紅茶と読書の好きな
君を苦しめている呪い
その身に流れる血には
災厄の獣が潜んで

「正気のうちに、早く……」

そんなこと出来なくて

呪われた血族を
根絶やす　そのため産まれた命
君を亡くしたくない
運命に逆らう　その代償

細い身体に飛びかかりつつ
動き封じて噛みつく首筋
飲み干したのは　獣の全て
もう君は『人間』だ

そして俺は『化物』だ

その剣　使うには
人間じゃないと駄目なんだ
さあ早く

跪け　我が運命
人をやめるのが罪だと言うなら
獣として散りましょう
君が微笑む未来のため

Translation

Kneel. This is my fate.
If they say that taking your hand is a crime
then let’s bear that sin
for the sake of a future where you are smiling.

They whisper that, if I close my eyes like this
and cast away everything, I can be at ease.
I shake my head at such sweet temptations
and look up at you.
Your twisted smile
makes it seem as though you’re crying.

I don’t need a weak, brittle body
that will make you cry.
To stop your tears
I’ll rise up, time and time again.

You love black tea and reading
and a curse is tormenting you.
A disastrous beast lurks
in the blood coursing through you.

“Hurry, while I’m still sane…”

I can’t do that.

I was born to eradicate
that cursed lineage.
I don’t want to lose you.
That is payment for defying fate…

While springing upon your slender frame
I pinned you down and bit the nape of your neck.
I drank up all the beast within you
so now you’re ‘human’

and I’m a ‘monster.’

If you’re not a human
then you can’t wield that blade.
Now, quickly!

Kneel. This is my fate.
If they say that giving up one’s humanity is a crime
then let’s die as animals
for the sake of a future where you are smiling.
