Even now, the sky is still so dark
The stopped clocks
The unsounding machines
That my voice could not reach

Just for a future together with you

And so we right now
Ah, even though it's worthless, I still cry out
The love of this corrupted world
And so we right now
Ah, even though it's meaningless, I still wish
Just for more time together with you

Even if my prayers will not grant me forgiveness, I…
