The moment our eyes met, it pierced my chest
A fire burning where I can’t reach
A nameless position, a shadow on call
Still my heart refuses to lie
Love is a curse, thorns wrapped around me
The kinder you are, the deeper they cut
The closer I get, the more I break
Set me free from this darkness
Sleepless nights, I face the truth
The place you go back to isn’t mine
One smile keeps my hopes alive
You play with what’s left of my heart
Love is poison, sweet bitter flames
The more you give, the more I crave
The words I need never come
Set me free from this curse
I knew it all from the start
I was never the one you’d choose
Still I can’t walk away
I’m the one most guilty here
Love is a curse, yet I still reach
For warmth I’m not allowed to touch
If this has to end, it’s now or never
Pull me out of this dark
Love is a curse, an endless prison
The one who steals my freedom is me
You’re not the one I should hate
Burn this weakness out of my soul
Love is a curse, thorns wrapping tight
Your kindness is the sharpest blade
Break every chain I put on myself
Set me free from this curse
Set me free

怒り、恐怖、そして自らに向けられた呪いのような愛。
『Renegade』は、現代社会と個人の内面、その両方に牙を剥く3曲入りの作品だ。
1曲目「Renegade」は、国民よりも私利私欲を優先し、国を売り渡すような行為を平然と行う権力者たちへの痛烈な批判を描いた楽曲。
自分たちの幸福を肥やすために裏切りを重ねる“売国”への怒りと、反逆者として声を上げる決意が、荒々しいサウンドと共に叩きつけられる。
「TRAPPED」は、逃げ場のない恐怖と不安に閉じ込められた心を描く。
逃げたいと願うほど、現実はさらに締め付けてくる。
生きづらさを抱えながら、それでも前に進むしかない矛盾と息苦しさが、この曲の核にある。
ラストの「Set Me Free」は、愛が救いではなく“呪い”へと変わった物語。
想う相手には別の男がいると知りながら、それでも離れられず、都合よく扱われている現実。
その関係に溺れている自分自身の罪も理解しているからこそ、憎しみは相手だけでなく自分にも向けられる。
それでもなお、この歪んだ愛から解放されたいと願う切実な叫びが、胸に突き刺さる。
『Renegade』は、社会への怒り、心を縛る恐怖、そして自分自身をも傷つける愛――
そのすべてを否定せず、曝け出すことで生まれたACEのリアルだ。
