Lion
In the center of the world that revolves around the stars
If you sneeze, the butterflies in some forest dance
The key to the door you protect is useless
An embarrassing story
Even as they lick each other, lions are strong
I want to survive
I want to survive
Even now I want to live on
Led by the constellations, our eyes met
I want to survive
Give me a reason
Withering in a flash of light
Until I show my serious side
I won’t sleep
Before long this wind will cross to the east
Striking the glaciers of this planet with high atmospheric pressure
My heart aches from drinking that tempting water
A distant story
Biting until it reaches the bone
I want to survive
I want to survive
Even now I want to live on
Led by the constellations, our eyes met
I want to survive
Give me a reason
Withering in a flash of light
Until I show my serious side
I won’t sleep
Why was I born?
Why am I here?
I want to survive
This unburied scar
I feared the light
I want to accept the life that has now pulled us together
The end of wandering
Beside you, I want to calm this heat
Until I show my serious side
I will not sleep
I want to survive
The critical point is fine
I love you
I want to awaken the life that has now pulled us together
Exchanging madness
I offer a prayer
I love you
Led by the constellations…
I want to survive
I still want to live
I love you
Until I show my serious heart
I will not sleep
