Lyrics

patto mi kirei na koufuku no gisou
mekki ga hagareochita
ichimai no usukawa hedateta saki de
guroi mono ga nanika umeiteita

ningen no aida ni chinden shita
dosuguroi mono ga bouhatsu suru hi
sore ni zutto obieru boku tachi wa
kanman na shi no sanaka ni aru mitai da

muryoku wo norou koe to
sukui wo inoru koe ga
mazatta you na uta ga kikoeru

subete wo nomikonde shimau you ni
susunde iku seija no koushin
yowai bokura sae mo yurushite
tsuresatte shimau
hakai demo naku kyuusai demo naku
subete wo narasu seija no koushin
uchinomesarete shimatta bokura no
urei wo haratte kure, naa

doushite bokutachi no koufuku no tane wa
ikkou ni mebukanai no?
ittai dore gurai no kurai yami no soko de
naite mogaite sugoshitara ii?

yamazumi no fukou no ue ni tatsu
misekake no risou usurasamui ne
heion na hibi wa kaette konai
henkyou motarasu bokura no maachingu bando

ubugoe wo ageta hi kara
kanashimi wo shitta hi kara
bokura wa surikirete itta

muryoku wo norou koe to
sukui wo inoru koe ga
mazatta you na uta ga kikoeru

subete wo nomikonde shimau you ni
susunde iku seija no koushin
yowai bokura sae mo yurushite
tsuresate shimau
mukau saki de mateiru no ga
rakuen darou ga jigoku darou ga
kono pareedo wa susumi tsuzukeru dake
ikari ya kanashimi no uta wo utai nagara

bakko suru akuma wo fumitsubushite
furueru shinzou ga tomatte shimau made

English Translation

A sham happiness that looks beautiful at first glance
Revealed its true colors
Behind a thin layer of skin
Something grotesque was moaning

The sinister thing that has spread through the human race
One day it will break out
And we're scared of it all the time
It's like we're in the middle of a slow death

The voices cursing helplessness
And praying for help
I hear a song that sounds like a mixture of them

As if to swallow up everything,
The march of the saints goes on
It forgives us even for our weaknesses
And takes us away
Not destruction nor salvation,
But the march levels off everything
We are in the depths of despair
May they dispel our sorrows

Why don't the seeds of our happiness
Ever sprout at all?
How gloomy should the depths of darkness be
For us to spend our time in, crying and struggling?

The sham ideal on top of a pile of misery
The height of folly
There will never be peace and quiet again
Because our marching band brings enthusiasm

From the day we gave our first cries,
From the day we knew grief
We were wearing out

The voices cursing helplessness
And praying for help
I hear a song that sounds like a mixture of them

As if to swallow up everything,
The march of the saints goes on
It forgives us even for our weaknesses
And takes us away
Whether it's paradise
Or hell that awaits us
This parade just keeps going
Singing songs of anger and sorrow

Trampling down the dominating demons
Until our hearts stop beating
