Lyrics

螺旋のように呻り迫る 憎しみと怒り絶えることなく
理由は彼方忘却へと 私自身がソレそのもの
rasen no you ni unarisemaru nikushimi to ikari taeru koto naku
riyuu wa kanata boukyaku e to watashijishin ga sore sono mono

ふとしたことで思い出す過去
futoshita koto de omoidasu kako

忘れたい忘れたい 彼の人もあの子も
全部全部無に帰して
無駄な望み
夢でも現実でも絶望しかないのなら
せめてお前も共に地獄へと
wasuretai wasuretai ano hito mo ano ko mo
zenbu zenbu mu ni kishite
muda na nozomi
yume demo genjitsu demo zetsubou shika nai no nara
semete omae mo tomo ni jigoku e to

繰り返し重なる怒りに
涙も枯れて心は何処?
忘れたい過去覚えてても
忘れていても奈落の底
kurikaeshi kasanaru ikari ni
namida mo karete kokoro wa doko?
wasuretai kako oboetetemo
wasurete itemo naraku no soko

同じ気持ちを味あわせたい
onaji kimochi wo aji awasetai

覚えてる覚えてる 痛み哀しみ消えぬ
お前だけは許さない
永久の決意
存在全てかけて呪いたおしてみせる
だからお前も私を見ていろ
oboeteru oboeteru itami kanashimi kienu
omae dake wa yurusanai
towa no ketsui
sonzai subete kakete noroi taoshite miseru
dakara omae mo watashi wo mite iro

忘れたい忘れたい 彼の人もあの子も
全部全部無に帰して
無駄な望み
夢でも現実でも絶望しかないのなら
せめてお前も共に地獄へと
wasuretai wasuretai ano hito mo ano ko mo
zenbu zenbu mu ni kishite
muda na nozomi
yume demo genjitsu demo zetsubou shika nai no nara
semete omae mo tomo ni jigoku e to

Translation

Like a spiral, they grow in intensity. Hatred and anger never ceasing
The reason is beyond oblivion. I am the very thing

Suddenly, I remember the past

I want to forget, I want to forget that person and that child
Let everything, everything go back to nothing
A vain hope
If there’s nothing but despair in dreams and in reality
At least go to hell with me

The anger that keeps repeating
I can’t even cry, where’s my heart?
I want to forget the past I remember
But even if I forget it, I’m in the depths of hell

I want you to taste my same feelings

I remember, I remember. The pain, the sorrow, they never go away
I’ll never forgive you
My eternal resolution
I’ll curse you with all my being
That’s why you have to look at me too

I want to forget, I want to forget that person and that child
Let everything, everything go back to nothing
A vain hope
If there’s nothing but despair in dreams and in reality
At least go to hell with me
