Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji	Translation
Nose Eyes Ear The sound of the brain dying 嗚呼　一つ覚えてほしい 其処の命 感じる間も無く 罪の臭い灰と成り散る In vice 瞳も死んでるのはいつもの事なんだろ 私は聖人なんです 手段は選ばない You the world 間近に迫った Serial killer アスファルトに叩きつけ 生きながら死んでる様が You the world 君よりも熟れてる 誰よりも熟れてる 煌めきの中で産まれた The sound of the brain dying 君よりも熟れてる 誰よりも熟れてる The sound of the brain dying 嗚呼　一つ覚えてほしい 其処の命 感じる間も無く 罪の臭い灰と成り散る 感じる事 出来ない心 それらが示してる 人に在らず 此処にも一人 感じる事の出来ない…	Nose Eyes Ear The sound of the brain dying Aa　Hitotsu oboete hoshii Soko no inochi Kanjiru ma mo naku Tsumi no nioi hai to nari chiru In vice Hitomi mo shinderu no wa itsumo no koto nandaro Watashi wa seijin nandesu Shudan wa erabanai You the world Majika ni sematta Serial killer Asufaruto ni tatakitsuke Ikinagara shinderu sama ga You the world Kimi yori mo ureteru Dare yori mo ureteru Kirameki no naka de umareta The sound of the brain dying Kimi yori mo ureteru Dare yori mo ureteru The sound of the brain dying Aa　Hitotsu oboete hoshii Soko no inochi Kanjiru ma mo naku Tsumi no nioi hai to nari chiru Kanjiru koto Dekinai kokoro Sorera ga shimeshiteru Hito ni arazu Koko ni mo hitori Kanjiru koto no dekinai…	Nose Eyes Ear The sound of the brain dying Ah　There is one thing I want you to remember That life Without any time to feel Turns into ashes, reeking of sin and scatters In vice Those dead beat eyes are also the same as always, right? I am a saint I do whatever it takes You the world The serial killer is getting close Smashing it on the asphalt Living like you're dead You the world More ripened than you More ripened than anyone else Born in the scintillation The sound of the brain dying More ripened than you More ripened than anyone else The sound of the brain dying Ah　There is one thing I want you to remember That life Without any time to feel Turns into ashes, reeking of sin and scatters To feel The heart cannot They are showing signs Inhumane Here lies another being Incapable of feeling…
