A beautiful song. Man, I wish American singers could write such poetic lyrics . . .

Shizuka ni sora ni kaeru anata no sugata wo
what else can I do besides avenge you?
Namida ga kareru made zutto mitsumete ita
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

Afureru kanashimi wa kese nai kizuato ni
Wasure wa shinai to chikatta

And the sorrow overflowing from the scar which can't be erased,
I swore that I would never forget it.

Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
Subete wo keshsite mise you
Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
I'll flap my broken wings and erase it all some day, you'll see,
Until the last bell ringing the dirge completes.

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

Furueru yubi de akai namida wo nazotta
I had nothing to lose, nothing truth

Hakanai omoide ga yami ni ochite yuku
Bright red tears traced by a trembling finger,
I had nothing to lose, nothing to lose
It crashes through the dark memories.

Saigo no hohoemi ga ukandewa kieru
Nukumori dake wo nokoshite
The last smile wavered, and disappears,
And the warmth is all that's left.

Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
Ima no bokuha iyase nai
Hateshi naku tsuduku tatakai ni
Kono mi wo subete sasageru dake

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

Itsuka wa kono sora ni daremo ga kaeru kara
Wakare no kotoba wa ira nai
Break out!

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

Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase
Subete wo keshite mise you
Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru
Saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
I'll flap my broken wings and erase it all some day, you'll see,
Until the last bell ringing the dirge completes.

Yasashii dake no kotoba nara
Ima no bokuha iyase nai
Hateshi naku tsuduku tatakai ni
Kono mi wo subete sasageru dake

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

REDEMPTION...REDEMPTION...
