歌詞
輝く街並みが 無限と続いて
瞬く星空は 舞台装置模様
遍く歴史上 消えゆくなにかに
蠢く悪意のない 人々の予感と
時めく為政者の 記録は消えても
渦巻く欲望は この世を作って
煌めく感情が 悠久を生きていて
羽ばたく鳥たちは 無限を目指すよ
きっとこの手に掴む この意味に気づかず
きっとこの目に見える 退屈だけ信じて
夢見る時あれこそ、当たるはツキばかり
心の底見るけど、暗い暗い闇の中
瞬く星空は 舞台装置模様
蠢く悪意のない 人々の予感と
時めく為政者の 記録は消えても
煌めく感情が 悠久を生きていて
きっとこの手に掴む この意味に気づかず
きっとこの目に見える 退屈だけ信じて
瞳を奪う伝送路は、現実とソリあわない
ヒール履いて戦場歩いた? そんな歌知る由無い
ずっとこの手に掴む この意思に気づかず
ずっとこの目で見てる 退屈だけ信じて
輝く街並みが 無限と続いて
遍く歴史上 消えゆくなにかに
渦巻く欲望は この世を作って
羽ばたく鳥たちは 無限を目指すよ
ずっとこの手に掴む この意思に気づかず
ずっとこの目で見てる この街だけ信じて

Translation
The shining street continues forever.
The twinkling starry sky sets the scene.
Something historic is disappearing.
It contains no writhing malice. The people’s premonitions
and the records of prosperous politicians may fade,
but their surging desire made this world.
Glistening feelings will live forever.
The birds fly into infinity.
I’ll definitely get it, though I don’t know what it means.
I can definitely see it. I’ll believe until I tire of it.
When I dream, all I hit is the moon.
I look deep into my heart but all I see is darkness.
The twinkling starry sky sets the scene.
It contains no writhing malice. The people’s premonitions
and the records of prosperous politicians may fade,
but their glistening feelings will live forever.
I’ll definitely get it, though I don’t know what it means.
I can definitely see it. I’ll believe until I tire of it.
The eye-capturing line doesn’t fit with reality.
Walking the battlefield in heels? There’s no way I know that song.
I’ll definitely get it, though I don’t know what it means.
I can definitely see it. I’ll believe until I tire of it.
The shining street continues forever.
Something historic is disappearing.
Their surging desire made this world.
The birds fly into infinity.
I’ll have it forever, though I don’t know it’s intentions.
I’ll watch it forever. I only believe in these streets.
