Ado - Shinka Lyrics (Romaji)

Romanized Lyrics

Yuku saki ga tadashii ka dou ka mo
Nani mo shiranai de eranda ima

Tashika na mono wa nani mo nai
Hito o katadoru fikushon-jou
Inochi no kachi wa douka shiteiku
Genjitsu wa tou ni okasareteiru

Kaika shita teorojii
Tenohira de odori kusasu hito no douri
Taika shita karuchua
Ikichi wo nomi hakidasareru hito no ishi
Nani mo kamo ubawareru

Open Your Eyes
Kono yo wa kyozou dore mo uso da
Sore demo komaku wo yurasu
Koe wa hontou nan da yo
Inochi wo kizande kanadete

Motomeru hodo toozakaru mono
Sore demo mada te wo nobasu
Yo no yoku no shinka ni nomikomarenaide
Egaite ite

Kataru ni ochita gengaku no
Chi no kayowanu imiteeshon
Zaiaku wa yagate donka shiteiku
Itami wa tou ni shoushitsu shiteiru

Maita katasutorofi
Mata uso de ooi sore mo hito rashii
Saika e itaru made mokushita mama
Douse wa itsuka kuiru dake da

Seikai wa doko ni aru?

Open Your Eyes
Hontou no koto mo iwanakya uso da
Kotoba ni shite oto ni shite
Tada tsutaete hoshiin da yo
Koukai mo kunou mo itami mo

Machigai no nai kotae dake ja

Yugami nai shinka ja
Kono yuragi datte ega kenai darou

Bagu mamire de, hikouritsu de,
Yagate oite ikare touta sareru

Open Your Eyes
Kono yo wa kyozou dore mo uso da

Sou subete ga uso nara
Aa hirari mau chou ni natte
Mazatte iku utsutsu to yume no naka
Boku no na o yonde

English Lyrics

Without even knowing if the destination is right
I chose this present moment knowing nothing at all

There is nothing certain anywhere
Within a fiction modeled after humanity
The value of life is becoming warped
And reality has long since been corrupted

A theology in full bloom
Dancing in the palm of a hand, scorning human reason
A devolved culture
Drinking living blood and spitting out the human will
Everything is stripped away

Open your eyes
This world is an illusion, all of it a lie
Even so, vibrating against my eardrums
This voice is real
Engrave this life, and play it aloud

Something that drifts further the more it is sought
Yet still, reaching out a hand once more
Do not be swallowed by the deepening greed of this world
Keep picturing what lies ahead

Of pedantry that betrayed itself through its own words
A cold, bloodless imitation
Guilt eventually grows dull
And the pain has long since vanished

A catastrophe sown
Covered with lies once again, how typical of humanity
Remaining silent until calamity strikes
In the end, there will only be regret

Where is the right answer?

Open your eyes
Even the truth becomes a lie if left unsaid
Put it into words, put it into sound
I just want you to convey it all
The regret, the anguish, and the pain

With only infallible answers
Emotions cannot be measured
Through an evolution without distortion
Even this wavering could never be expressed

Riddled with bugs, inefficient
Soon left behind and weeded out

Everything will fade away someday
Even knowing that
Why do we still breathe?

Open your eyes
This world is an illusion, all of it a lie
Even so, vibrating against my eardrums
This voice is real
Engrave this life, and play it aloud

The heart is a fiction, existing nowhere
Even so, right now it strikes my chest
Do not lose sight of the true worth residing there
I want you to go on living

Ah, if the day of awakening comes at last
And pain, and joy
Yes, if everything was a lie
Ah, turning into a fluttering butterfly
Melting into the space between reality and dream
Call out my name

Japanese Lyrics

行く先が正しいかどうかも
何も知らないで選んだ今

確かなものは何もない
人を模るフィクション上
命の価値はどうかしていく
現実はとうに侵されている

開花したテオロジー
手のひらで踊り 腐す人の道理
退化したカルチュア
生き血を飲み 吐き出される人の意志
何もかも奪われる

Open Your Eyes
この世は虚像 どれも嘘だ
それでも 鼓膜を揺らす
声は本当なんだよ
命を刻んで 奏でて

求めるほど遠ざかるもの
それでも まだ手を伸ばす
世の欲の深化に飲み込まれないで
描いていて

語るに落ちた衒学の
血の通わぬイミテーション
罪悪はやがて鈍化していく
痛みはとうに消失している

蒔いたカタストロフィ
また嘘で覆い それも人らしい
災禍へ至るまで黙したまま
どうせはいつか悔いるだけだ

正解はどこにある?

Open Your Eyes
本当の事も言わなきゃ嘘だ
言葉にして音にして
ただ伝えて欲しいんだよ
後悔も苦悩も痛みも

間違いのない答えだけじゃ
感情はそう測れない
歪みない進化じゃ
この揺らぎだって描けないだろう

バグ塗れで、非効率で、
やがて置いて行かれ淘汰される

全てはいつか消えゆく
わかっていても
息をするのはどうして?

Open Your Eyes
この世は虚像 どれも嘘だ
それでも 鼓膜を揺らす
声は本当なんだよ
命を刻んで 奏でて

心は虚構 どこにもない
それでも 今胸を打つ
そこにある真価を見失わないで
生きていてほしい

ああ いつか目覚めの日が来て
痛みも 喜びも
そう 全てが嘘なら
ああ ひらり舞う蝶になって
混ざっていく 現と夢の中
僕の名を呼んで
