Ehehehe… ahahahahaha!

I am the knight of revolution

Burdened by the dark moonlight

Jyushi Aimono, 14th Moon!

What’s the joke? I am saddled with doubts

A sudden nuisance, preventing laughter

Malicious bullying that began without reason

Miserable days became routine

The crazy gears of life, seen in a dark dream night after night

In this Hell akin to a bottomless swamp

A spider’s thread hangs down from above

In my prayers, I cry farewell to my hollow past

I can’t go back, I can’t start over

I can’t stop, I have no choice but to go forwards

Crybaby, from which I want to change

One, two, three, I count on my fingers

Awaiting the day the rabbit’s silhouette

Can be found within the full moon

An island of fantasy seen within the clouds

Burdened with the name of the long-awaited moon

I decided to walk despite my solitude, now arriving here

The moonlight that illuminates the darkness

Takes up the mic

Now, let’s go, Amanda

Believe that the light will wait for you tomorrow

Hold determination tight in your heart

Rather than merely sitting and moping

Instead, rise up

Now, let’s go Amanda

Clench your hands into fists and wipe away your tears

Now, never, never, never, never give up, give up

Going to beauty salons for a refined appearance

Giving autographs as a present

To those who see me with new eyes

Come, by all means, I shall introduce you to my world!

My speech is too complex? Say what you like

The emphasis on visuals that aim to immerse you

The barrel of the gun that remains aimed at authority

Completing preparations for a day-wide revolution

Don’t give in, don’t let yourself be frightened

Unshakable, my heart will not yet die

The skull lady’s kiss is preceded by

A visit to the back of the graveyard

A silver rose held in one hand

Crawling up from deep beneath the earth

Reaching out towards the summit, this underground romance

The frenzied feast shall now begin

Be boisterous so you do not leave with regrets

The moonlight that illuminates the darkness

Takes up the mic

Now, let’s go, Amanda

Believe that the light will wait for you tomorrow

Hold determination tight in your heart

Rather than merely sitting and moping

Instead, rise up

Now, let’s go Amanda

Clench your hands into fists and wipe away your tears

Now, never, never, never, never give up, give up

Come to think of it, who was speaking just now

Seems like it was nothing more than some gaudy illusion

You cannot deny that it works after having seen for yourself

Is your diet unbalanced

Because you dislike food without trying it first?

Always constantly showing myself off

Being able to see something through

Is my method of going through life

I bask in the spotlight’s growing brilliance

In seizing a mic, anyone can become a hero

This feeling acquired throughout

Your body and brain, a cathartic hypnosis

The three-way struggle of Bad Ass Temple

In that moment becomes a full set of Musketeers

Always dissatisfied

With this unsociable and unchanging existence

Unable to see the distant future

The door is shut with a kick

Now observe as the fuse of the revolutionary bomb

Is set alight by I, 14th Moon!

I don’t want to cry these tears anymore

Let’s look at the stars and laugh, Amanda

Believe that the light will wait for you tomorrow

Hold determination tight in your heart

I’m going to fight back against merely sitting and moping

Let’s overcome the painful days, Amanda

Clench your hands into fists and aim for tomorrow

Now, never, never, never, never give up, give up

Never give up, give up…

Never give up, give up…

Eheheh...Ahahahahah

Never Never Never Never Give up, Give up

Never Give up, Give up

Never Give up, Give up

Never Give up, Give up

へへへ ハハハハハ

我 月光と漆黒を背負う 革命のナイト 四十物十四

Fourteenth moon

何の冗談？　抱え込んだ疑問

いきなり邪魔モン　笑えない

理由もなく始まった陰湿なBulling

惨めな日々のRoutine

狂った人生の歯車　夜な夜な見る黒い夢の中

底無し沼のような地獄に

蜘蛛の糸垂らしてくれと

祈り叫んでた空虚な過去にお別れ

戻れない　やり直せない

立ち止まれない　前に進むしかない

Crybabyから変化する為に

One, Two, Three　指折り数え

満ちる日を待つ兎　月の影に探して

雲の奥に幻想の島見出す

宵待月の名を背負い

孤独でも歩くと決め今に至るのさ

暗がり　照らす月明かり

マイク手に取り

さぁ行こうかアマンダ

明日のその先　光が待つこと信じて

不退転の心抱いて

塞ぎ込むようなことばかり

けど立ち上がり

さぁ行こうかアマンダ

握る拳力強く　涙拭き

Never Never Never Never Give up, Give up

磨く容姿　通う美容室

異質な目で見る者達には直筆サインをプレゼント

さぁどうぞ

「我の世界に取り込んでやろうぞ」

台詞が厨二？　意見ご自由に

君を夢中にするヴィジュアル重視

居座る重鎮に向ける銃身

終日できてる革命の準備

恐れない　まだ倒れない

揺るがない　心はまだ死んじゃいない

Skull LadyのKiss受けるまでに

墓場背に向け　銀色の薔薇片手に

地下深くから這い上がり

頂上目指して掴めアンダーグラウンドロマンス

始まるぞ狂乱の宴

悔い残さぬよう大いに騒げ

暗がり　照らす月明かり

マイク手に取り

さぁ行こうかアマンダ

明日のその先　光が待つこと信じて

不退転の心抱いて

塞ぎ込むようなことばかり

けど立ち上がり

さぁ行こうかアマンダ

握る拳力強く　涙拭き

Never Never Never Never Give up, Give up

そういや誰かが言ってたなぁ

そうやって派手な見た目だけじゃ

通用しないって中身を見てから言いな

食わず嫌いの偏食家か何か？

常に自分の魅せ方

突き詰めるのが十四のやり方　生き様

スポットライト浴び輝きを増す

マイク掴めば誰だって誰かのヒーロー

その脳で肌で全身で感じろカタルシスを得るヒプノシス

三つ巴 Bad Ass Temple　揃えばまさに三銃士

異質な存在にディスでいつもギスギス

未来を見ず閉ざす扉にKick

今に見とけ　革命の爆弾　導火線に火つける我こそが14th Moon

もう涙は零さないように

星眺め笑って行こうかアマンダ

明日のその先　光が待つこと信じて

不退転の心抱いて

塞ぎ込むような日に立ち向かい

つらい日も乗り越え行こうかアマンダ

握る拳力強く　明日へ向け

Never Never Never Never Give up, Give up

Never Give up, Give up

Never Give up, Give up
