Now let me open the scar 溶け合ったVirus　虹に黒を差し飛び立つ

赤い花の蜜　濡れて隠れたノイズ 胸に這い寄るの　“ウマレカワリタイノデショウ？”

永遠　眠っていたパラダイム 芯を喰って侵食していた

Now let me open the scar 溶け合ったVirus　触れて　露(あら)わになる本能 Grew up in the loneliness 壊れたReality　虹に黒を差し飛び立つ

今すぐ抜け出して　正気の迷路 反転したコントラストへ

青い硝子に　映った私は 残酷な微笑で　喉を震わせるの

I’m changing to a monster 裏切り合いも　深く堕ちてゆくプロセス Is this my insanity？ その問いさえが　盲目と欲望の証

そのまま飛び出して　知った世界は パラドクスの楽園の様

“Live it up！　Live it up！　Live it up！” 目を醒ました “Live it up！　Live it up！　Live it up！” 感情の振れるままに

Now let me open the scar 溶け合ったVirus　生まれ変わった本能で Grew up in the loneliness 見つけたReality　穢れを知っても　もっと… 戻れはしない　漂白されていたParadise Yes, this is my sanity　自由を抱いて 虹に黒を差し飛び立つ

今すぐ抜け出して　正気の迷路 反転したコントラストへ 飛び出して　知った世界は パラドクスの楽園の様 手を伸ばす　禁忌の渦 黒を差して　虹を暴け

Now let me open the scar As the virus mixes in Casting that rainbow in blackness, I'll take to the sky!

A noise lies hidden, wet from the honey of red flowers It creeps up in my chest; “Don't you wish to be reborn?”

An eternally resting paradigm Was devouring my heart, corroding me away

Now let me open this scar, As the virus mixes in; instincts are laid bare beneath Grew up in the loneliness A broken reality Casting that rainbow in blackness, I'll take to the sky!

I'll break out now, from this labyrinth of sanity, Toward an inverted contrast!

My form reflected in blue glass, Sends a cruel smile trembling up my throat

I'm changing into a monster This mutual betrayal is just another deeply falling process Is this my insanity? Even that question alone is proof of my blindness and appetite

That world I leaped into without a second thought, Is like a paradise of paradox!

"Live it up! Live it up! Live it up!" I awoke, "Live it up! Live it up! Live it up!" Experiencing my emotions at will

Now let me open this scar, As the virus mixes in with reborn instinct Grew up in the loneliness A discovered reality; even if I'm defiled, I'll seek more... I can never go back! This paradox has been bleached of its color Yes, this is my sanity; I'm embracing that freedom! Casting that rainbow in blackness, I’ll take to the sky!

I'll break out now, from this labyrinth of sanity, Toward an inverted contrast! That world I leaped into, Is like a paradise of paradox! Reaching toward a vortex of taboo, I’ll wield the blackness, exposing that rainbow!
