夜をなぞるようなギターの響き
遠くで鐘の音が鳴る
終わりと始まりの狭間で
心臓がまだ生きている
崩れ落ちた約束の上で
夢の残骸を拾い集めて
真実さえ誰かのルール
線を引くことで守られてる
だけど心はまだ燃えてる
痛みの奥で叫ぶ “Don’t fade away”
越えてゆけ — Beyond the Divide
傷だらけの翼でも
この声がまだ響くなら
世界を撃ち抜け、祈りを抱いて
I’ll never fall, I’ll never hide
光のない夜を選んで
孤独を武器に変えていく
偽りだらけのニュースの中で
本当の声が消えていく
でも確かにここにいる
壊れた夢でも “It’s still alive”
超えてゆけ — Beyond the Divide
限界なんて壊せばいい
涙を燃料にして走れ
闇を裂いて、未来を掴め
We’ll rise again, until we shine
越えてゆけ — Beyond the Divide
声を枯らしても構わない
痛みが消えないなら、それでいい
その傷が、生きた証だから
Beyond the Divide — I’m still alive
鐘の音がまた響く
ノイズの向こうで風が泣く
それでもこの手を伸ばす
夜明けは、すぐそこに
