Rain

Shishido Ryoh (Kusuda Toshiyuki)
Translated by Athena

What lies beyond
The horizon of this burnt earth?
Over the rugged battlefield and awakening sunrise,
Chimes begin to reverberate

A slight fever, wavering skies
I keep breathing out in shallow breaths
I have been chasing after an illusion
An endless dream, and the sound of that chime

If you seek nothing but power, then these chains
Cannot be broken
Spit out the words 'til you tire of them
I am unable to protect it at all...

I wandered into the boundaries
And even if the flame should cease
I will chase after an illusion
An endless dream, and the sound of that chime

If you seek nothing but power, then these chains
Cannot be broken
Spit out the words 'til you tire of them
I am unable to protect it at all...

Even so, I prayed, as shadowy memories overlap
Within the brilliant sunlight
A transparent love is sure to pour down
And envelop us all
