Gackt: Redemption

what else can I do besides avenge you?










you told me
live as if you were to die tomorrow
feel as if you were to be reborn now
face as if you were to live forever


I had nothing to lose, nothing truth












make it up

shizuka ni sora ni kaeru anata no sugata wo
What else can I do besides avenge you?
namida ga kareru made zutto mitsumete ita

afureru kanashimi wa kesenai kizuato ni
wasure wa shinai to chikatta

oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
subete wo keshite miseyou
itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
saigo no kane ga nariyamu made

you told me to
live as if you were to die tomorrow
feel as if you were to be reborn now
face as if you were to live forever

furueru yubi de akai namida wo nazotta
I had nothing to lose, nothing to lose
hakanai omoide ga yami ni ochite yuku

saigo no hohoemi ga ukande wa kieru
nukumori dake wo nokoshite

yasashii dake no kotoba nara
ima no boku wa iyasenai
hateshinaku tsuzuku tatakai ni
kono mi wo subete sasageru dake

itsu ka wa kono sora ni daremo ga kaeru kara
wakare no kotoba wa iranai

make it up!

oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
subete wo keshite miseyou
itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
saigo no kane ga nariyamu made

yasashii dake no kotoba nara
ima no boku wa iyasenai
hateshinaku tsuzuku tatakai ni
kono mi wo subete sasageru dake

<lyrics>
Your form which returns gently to heaven
What else can I do, besides avenge you?
I watched it for the longest time, until my tears dried up.

The sorrow overflowing from the scar I can't erase
I swore that I would never forget it.

I'll flap my broken wings and
erase it all some day, you'll see,
Until the last bell stops ringing
the dirge completes.

You told me to
live as if you were to die tomorrow.
Feel as if you were to be reborn now,
Face as if you were to live forever.

Bright red tears traced by a trembling finger,
I had nothing to lose, nothing to lose
It crashes through the dark memories.

The last smile wavered, and disappears,
And the warmth is all that's left.

Your kind and gentle words
can't heal me now,
This body's only dedicated
to the never ending fight.

Because everyone returns to heaven, some day,
You'll never need to say goodbye.

Make it up!

I'll flap my broken wings and
erase it all some day, you'll see,
Until the last bell stops ringing
the dirge completes.

Your kind and gentle words
can't heal me now,
This body's only dedicated
to the never ending fight.
