Lyric

Footsteps through the Torii gate, scattering the sand

In the empty shrine, the wind is laughing through the land

Moonlight traces lines upon my neck and raven hair

Fire on my fingertips, dancing in the air (Fu...)

Every time the pale moon holds its breath above the trees

I call a name that pulses deep in crimson memories

"I cannot let it end," the cold steel starts to cry

The only one to tear this night apart is I!

Gekka no Koujin—Unravel the thread

Cut away the destiny, the life that I have led

No time to choose between the laughter and the tears

Beautiful and crimson, heart is dancing through the fears

Gekka no Koujin—There is no turning back

Carrying a wound much deeper than the vows I lack

Sweet and bitter wishes, burning in my throat today

Living as I slash the dark and carve my lonely way!

Sleeves are soaked in sins of those I’ve never even known

The tally of the scarlet marks has only ever grown

Whispers in my ear like foxfire (Kitsunebi) in the night

Vanishing and calling me back into the fight (Come here...)

If the world is like this, I can only laugh it through

There are things that only coldness can protect for you

Black and Red are swaying on the boundary line I tread

No longer just a girl, the innocent is dead!

Gekka no Koujin—Unravel the thread

Sever the tied future, let the ancient skin be shed

Righteousness is something that will only follow late

Right now, just be hot and beautiful, and meet your fate

Gekka no Koujin—I won't wander anymore

A kiss that’s sharper than the tears I’ve shed before

Even just a second outshines eternity’s glow

I’ll prove it with a single stroke, and let the crimson flow!

Ah, the wishes that we make are always far too late

Ah, the pile of regrets is all I’ve found of fate

But still, I cannot let go of this hand, it's far too tight

The only thing that saves me is this flash of ruby light (Ah...)

Gekka no Koujin—Unravel the thread

Tear apart the loneliness that’s sleeping in my bed

No time to choose between the laughter and the tears

Mysterious and crimson, heart is dancing through the years

Gekka no Koujin—There is no turning back

Kick away the dawn that’s burning through the sky of black

Sin and punishment, I’ll take them all and let them be

Look at me right now, the most beautiful of me!

Under the moon

The crimson remains
