Lyrics (check the CC button for subtitles):
Waking up to the sound of rain, the dawn is still awfully distant (distant, distant)

I heard it once upon a time
A memory before the world broke (memory, memory)

Voices of beasts, loud so as to call out their pack

I dash out, without waiting for tomorrow; we’re children of the surface
I’m only living in the times of my birth; I don’t know if there’s an answer
While it’s tumbling and being agitated, my heart is breaking into pieces
Even so, my eyes are still shouting

Cannot bear them all, hide them all, big tears are spilling out
I’m alive, I’ll go on living
Life shines brightly

I hear the ticks of the second hand
A sound that is engraved without pause (I can hear it, I can hear it)

There’re no exceptions
Time always and only moves forward (move, move)
It overlooks us, towards some greater existences

We’ll stand up and raise our lights high if we’re the last fort
I’m only living the continuation of history; the same error can’t be followed
Unable to obey or defy, it approaches bit-by-bit
Like a pendulum, a blaze, the future sways and wavers

There’s a poem I heard once upon a time
It was a prayer for people awaiting the morning

We’ll stand up and raise our lights high if we’re the last fort
I dash out, without waiting for tomorrow; we’re children of the surface
I’m only living in the times of my birth; I don’t know if there’s an answer

While it’s tumbling and being agitated, my heart is breaking into pieces
Even so, my eyes are still shouting
Like a pendulum, a blaze, the future sways and wavers
It sways and wavers

Cannot bear them all, hide them all, big tears are spilling out
I’m alive, I’ll go on living
Life shines brightly
(It shines brightly, it shines brightly)
