A.R.

Lyrics & Composition: Chiyomaru Shikura
Arrangement: Toshimichi Isoe

My eyes have experienced it
If everything in that sky is the truth
I can hear scornful laughs saying
my search for the right answer is foolish behavior

A repeating drift and your proof
a capture to a loneliness with no visible exit
Converging the moment you take flight
A butterfly, you, like the gods, can't even showing your own form

The parallel people stand back-to-back with others
and rulers deceive with talkative remarks
Even if we betray the devised boundary line
time will begin to awkwardly distort
And the world will rewrite to stub out the seam

Fabricated vestiges
locked away by time to a place no one can know of
Beyond the single wall
is an unknown world line that can't be negated

The future of a sacrifice entered into contract
A spiral structure not permitting evasion
Can't turn back, a nightmarish-like
butterfly, you, like the gods, can't even show your own form

The parallel past and future sit side by side
and the creators deceive with the distorted speed of light
Even if we try climbing over the soaring castle walls
the cosmos would begin an intentional injustice
And the world will rewrite to stub out the seam

The parallel people stand back-to-back with others
and rulers deceive with talkative remarks
Even if we betray the devised boundary line
time will begin to awkwardly distort
And the world will rewrite to stub out the seam
A.R.

Boku no shikai ga keiken wo shita
Zenbu no ano sora ga HONTO da to shitara
Tadashii kotae wo motomeru koto wa
Bakageta furumai to kikoeru shisshou

Kurikaesu hyouryuu to kimi no shoumei
Deguchi no mienai kodoku e no KYAPUCHA
Habataita shunkan ni shuusoku wo suru
BATAFURAI anata wa kami no gotoku sugata sae misenai

PARARERU na hito, hitobito wa senaka awase de
Jouzetsu na chuushaku de mayakasu shihaisha
Shikumareta kyoukaisen wo uragittemo
Jikan wa bukiyou ni waikyoku wo hajimeru
Sekai wa hokorobi wo momikesu you ni kakikaeru

Netsuzou sareta sono konseki wa
Jikan ni tozasarete shirarezaru basho e
Tatta ichimai kabe no mukou wa
Shiranai sekaisen hitei wa dekinai

Keiyaku no kawasareta gisei no mirai
Kaihi wo yurusanu rasen SUTORAKUCHA
Atomodori no dekinai akumu no you na
BATAFURAI anata wa kami no gotoku sugata sae misenai

PARARERU na kako to mirai wa tonariawasete
Nejimageta kousoku de damasu souzousha
Sobietatsu jouheki wo norikoete misetemo
Uchuu wa itoteki na fusei wo hajimeru
Sekai wa hokorobi wo momikesu you ni kakikaeru

PARARERU na hito, hitobito wa senaka awase de
Jouzetsu na chuushaku de mayakasu shihaisha
Shikumareta kyoukaisen wo uragittemo
Jikan wa bukiyou ni waikyoku wo hajimeru
Sekai wa hokorobi wo momikesu you ni kakikaeru

  1. Hello! I would like to point out that the kanji (and thus romanized) lyrics have some mistakes. The sentences パラレルな人、人々は背中合わせて and
    パラレルな 過去と未来は隣り合わせて should end with a で instead of a て.

    Here's a picture of what seems to be the CD's lyrics booklet, you can check it out http://www.game-ost.com/static/covers_soundtracks/3688_198449.jpg

    Have a nice day, I love your translations!
