Japanese
静寂が刺す　凍てついた水面に
歪な記憶が　木霊した
手に纏う蝶　何を映し出すの
世界の価値を　教えて
光に囚われ　逃げてた
綻び　閉ざされた城で　忘れていたの
独りに慣れて　声出すこともなく
楽園に侵されたままで
静寂が問う
何故生まれ落ちたの　映す情景の奥へと
静寂に問う　早まる鼓動で
ah 崩れ散ったの　無垢な過ちが
引き返す道を許さないわ
歩み続けて　辿り着く先へと
其処に答えがあるはず…
静寂に問う　答えを求めて

Romaji
seijaku ga sasu itetsuita minamo ni
ibitsu na kioku ga kodamashita
te ni matou chou nani wo utsushidasu no
sekai no kachi wo oshiete
hikari ni toraware nigeteta
hokorobi tozasareta shiro de wasureteita no
hitori ni narete koe dasu koto mo naku
rakuen ni okasareta mama de
seijaku ga tou
naze umareochita no utsusu joukei no oku e to
seijaku ni tou hayamaru kodou de
ah kuzurechitta no muku na ayamachi ga
hikikaesu michi wo yurusanai wa
ayumitsudzukete tadoritsuku saki eto
soko ni kotae ga aru hazu...
seijaku ni tou kotae wo motomete
English translation
In stinging silence, twisted memories echo
on the frozen water's surface
What do the butterflies encircling my hands reflect?
Teach me the worth of the world
I'd been running away, entrapped by the light
I'd forgotten, in a castle sealed away and coming apart
I'd been used to the loneliness
broken by the paradise without saying a word
The silence asks me
Into the depths of the reflected scenery, my pulse quickening,
I ask the silence: why was I born?
Ah, the images shatter, and my innocent mistakes
will not allow me to retrace my steps
And so I keep on walking toward my destination,
where the answers should lie...
I ask the silence, and seek the answer
