STAND ALONE



I REMEMBER YOUR BLAME
やるせない悪夢だね…
静かな誓いを胸に沈めた

迷路は果てしなく誰にも壊せない
ただ見上げてただけ 
この穢れた世界で

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
この命、捧げよう

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

錆びついた空の向こう
EVERY LIE I WEAR BECOMES MY CORE
背徳の先に何が見える?

凍える未来に夢を見た日から

MARCHING THROUGH A FIELD OF ASH
この想い、アナタへ
NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

一人で逝けると決めたから
この腐った世界を切り裂いていけ

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
この命、捧げよう

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

穢れたまま LET IT ROLL
世界を敵にしても
UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE


I REMEMBER YOUR BLAME
yarusenai akumu da ne…
shizuka na chikai wo mune ni shizumeta

meiro wa hateshinaku dare ni mo kowasenai
tada miageteta dake
kono kegareta sekai de

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
kono inochi sasageyou

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

sabitsuita sora no mukou
EVERY LIE I WEAR BECOMES MY CORE
haitoku no saki ni nani ga mieru?

kogoeru mirai ni yume wo mita hi kara

MARCHING THROUGH A FIELD OF ASH
kono omoi anata e
NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

hitori de yukeru to kimeta kara
kono kusatta sekai wo kirisaite ike

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
kono inochi sasageyou

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

kegareta mama LET IT ROLL
sekai wo teki ni shite mo
UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE


I REMEMBER YOUR BLAME
It’s a inconsolable nightmare, isn’t it…
I made the quiet vow sink into my chest

The labyrinth is endless, no one can destroy it
I just looked to above
In this tainted world¹

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
I offer up my life

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

Beyond the rusted sky
EVERY LIE I WEAR BECOMES MY CORE
What is there to see at the end of immorality?

Since the day I saw a dream in the ice-cold future

MARCHING THROUGH A FIELD OF ASH
This feeling is for you
NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

You decided you could go to the end alone²
So tear your way through this rotten world

WALKING THROUGH THE POISONED WORLD
I offer up my life

NEVER RUN UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

Tainted with impurity¹ LET IT ROLL
Even if I make the world my enemy
UNTIL THE END
I STAND ALONE

Lyrics taken from GACKT’s Twitter post here, will update if there is an official release that differs.

  1. 穢れた kegareta (“dirty”, “stained”, “tainted”, “impure”) is written with the less common kanji that implies spiritual impurity rather than regular dirt.
  2. 逝ける yukeru (“can go”) is written with a less common kanji that is read the same but used in the sense of “pass on”, “cross over”, “die”. Hence “go to the end”.
