Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji	Translation
輪郭を伝う 夢や愛を無色に変えながら 契る約束が終わりを告げる 焼けた野原には虚ろを摘む 透けた白い肌、その燐火に捧げる 詩 夢から 夢から夢へガラスの道へ 夢から涙さえ消え去って 夢から 夢から覚めたこの世界では 思い出さえ夢となり… 羽搏く時、写し 心音が指し示す 嘘を奏でる 写実家の様に 限りなく現実を描き出す 「傍に居て欲しい」 笑顔に変えて MINERVA 夢から 夢から夢へガラスの道へ 夢から涙さえ消え去って 夢から 夢から覚めたこの世界では 思い出さえ夢となり… 無作為に振り撒いた願いはただ 誰の為でもなく弱さを映し出す 此処に居るこの俺は 今何を歌う? 「願う事さえ許されない」 鬼さんこちら手の鳴る方へ 鬼を捕まえ私と変わ…	Rinkaku o tsutau Yume ya ai o mushoku ni kaenagara Chigiru yakusoku ga owari o tsugeru Yaketa nohara ni wa utsuro o tsumu Suketa shiroi hada, sono rinka ni sasageru Uta Yume kara Yume kara yume e garasu no michi e Yume kara namida sae kiesatte Yume kara Yume kara sameta kono sekaide wa Omoide sae yume to nari… Habataku toki, utsushi Shin'on ga sashishimesu Uso o kanaderu Shajitsuka no you ni Kagirinaku genjitsu o egakidasu "Soba ni ite hoshii" Egao ni kaete MINERVA Yume kara Yume kara yume e garasu no michi e Yume kara namida sae kiesatte Yume kara Yume kara sameta kono sekaide wa Omoide sae yume to nari… Musakui ni furimaita negai wa tada Dare no tame de mo naku yowa-sa o utsushidasu Koko ni iru kono ore wa Ima nani o utau? "Negau koto sae yurusarenai" Onisan kochira te no naru hō e Oni o tsukamae watashi to kawa…	As it outlines the silhouette, Dreams and love become colorless Our vows declaring the end In the burnt field, I gather emptiness Your transparent white skin I dedicate these words to the spirit lights From the dream From dream to dream and onto the glass road Even tears fade away from the dream From the dream Awakening into this world from the dream Even memories become dreams… Capturing that moment when it's about to fly away The beat of the heart points out the way I play the melody of lies Expressing it as real as you possibly can, just like a realist painter 「I want you to stay with me」 Changing it into a smile MINERVA From the dream From dream to dream and onto the glass road Even tears fade away from the dream From the dream Awakening into this world from the dream Even memories become dreams… Those randomly scattered wishes are just a reflection Of weakness and nothing else I stand here and question myself What will I sing now? 「Not even allowed to wish for anything」 Hey tagger, come and catch me Do you hear me clapping? Cause if you don't, I will catch you and I will…
