Lyrics[]
愛のイロハを学んでも
手に入れいれられないのなん>
戦い疲れ果てたコロニー 貴方が欲しい
(If you do)なんだって怖くないから
(If you will)背中を任せて
壊したい 壊してしまいたい 貴方のためなら
不純も矛盾も見境なんてない
守りたい 守りたいのは全てを
教えてくれた 貴方だけ
目には目を歯を 尖っても
伝えられないの でも
悲しむ顔は負けなセオリー 素直でイタイ
(If you do)失っていいような未来
(If you will)端から見えていない
壊したい 壊してしまいたい 貴方のためなら
不順も矛盾も見境なんてない
隠したい 隠したいのは全てを
背負うと決めた 涙だけ
背伸びして見える世界
貴方のため? 自分のため
まだわからない 感情の裏側
壊したい 壊してしまいたい
戻れないのなら
尚更強く抱きしめていたい
離れない優しさを消し去っても
悲しいくらい 溢れ出る思い
逃げない 逃げたくないこのジレンマから
不順も矛盾も見境なんてない
守りたい守りたいのは全てを教えてくれた
Ai no iroha wo manande mo
Te ni ireirerarenai no nan no
Tatakai tsukare hateta koronii anata ga hoshii
(If you do) Nan datte kowakunai kara
(If you will) Senaka wo makasete
Kowashitai kowashite shimaitai anata no tame nara
Fujun mo mujun mo misakai nante nai
Mamoritai mamoritai no wa subete wo
Oshiete kureta anata dake
Me ni wa me wo ha wo togatte mo
Tsutaerarenai no demo
Kanashimu kao wa makena seorii sunao de itai
(If you do) Ushinatte ii you na mirai
(If you will) Hana kara miete inai
Kowashitai kowashite shimaitai anata no tame nara
Fujun mo mujun mo misakai nante nai
Kakushitai kakushitai no wa subete wo
Seou to kimeta namida dake
Senobi shite mieru sekai
Anata no tame? jibun no tame
Mada wakaranai kanjou no uragawa
Kowashitai kowashite shimaitai
Modorenai no nara
Naosara tsuyoku dakishimete itai
Hanarenai yasashisa wo keshisatte mo
Kanashii kurai afurederu
Omoi nigenai nigetakunai kono jirenma kara
Fujun mo mujun mo misakai nante nai
Mamoritai mamoritai no wa subete wo oshiete kureta
Even if I learn the A B C's of love
I can't obtain it
An exhausted colony from battle, I want you
(If you do) I am not afraid of anything
(If you will) leave it up to me
I want to destroy, I want to destroy it if it's for you
Impure or paradox, I don't care at all
I want to protect it,
The only thing I want to protect is you who taught me everything
Eyes for eyes, sharpen your fangs
I can't tell you my feelings, but
If you show your sad face, you lose
I want to be honest
(If you do) the future that's ok to lose
(If you will) I don't want it from the beginning
I want to destroy, I want to destroy if it's for you
Out of orders or paradox, I don't care at all
I want to hide
The only thing I want to hide is the tears I shed when I decide to carry everything on my back
The world that seems to be stretched
Is it for you? Is it for me?
I still don't know, what's behind this feeling
I want to destroy, I want to destroy
If I can't go back
I want to keep holding you tighter even more
Even if I get rid of the kindness I can't forget
The feeling is overflowing, and it's making me sad
I won't run away, I won't run away from this dilemma
Out of order or paradox, I don't care at all
I want to protect it,
