Candle wa tsuki akari
shokudai ni Knife
nikushimi wo musabotta
kanashimi no Dress

The candle is the moonlight
The candlight, the knife
Lusting after hatred
Is the dress of sorrows

seijaku wo yusabutta
zetsubou no Wine
ookii naru toki no hate
hibi-wareta Glass

The silence is broken
By the wine of failure
The growing breadth of time
Is the shattered rim of the glass

K: donna Opera mo utaezu ni
konya mukai wa owaru darou
donna gaka sae egakezu ni
konya sekai wa owaru darou

Without ever singing the opera
The curtains might lower tonight
Without ever painting the canvas
The world might end tonight

S: ai wo katatte
hito wa itsuwari wo
nageshi-tsuzukeru
ueni mo kizukazu ni

Speaking about love
People continue
The lies
Without fearing the hunger

Table ni naranderu
zankoku na kajitsu
seihai ni michite iru
renbin no namida

Spread upon the table
Is the fruits of cruelty
Filling the holy grail
Are the tears of mercy

arasoi ni chi-nurareta
utsukushii ezara
doukoku ni shibarareta
karisome no jiyuu

Fouled by strife
Are the well-wrought plates
Fettered by lament
Is trifling excess

M: donna shirabe mo kanadezu ni
kitto rekishi wa taeru darou
donna serifu mo kikoezu ni
kitto maku sae tojiru darou

Without seeking any subject
History would die out anyhow
Without hearing a single line
The intermission would close anyhow

Y: Nani wo yume mite
hito wa yokubou wo
koyashi-tsuzukeru
asa nado konai no ni

I saw something in a dream
People enrich
Their greed
Never seeing the day

Candle wa tsuki akari
shokudai ni Knife
nikushimi wo musabotta
kanashimi no Dress

The candle is the moonlight
The candlight, the knife
Lusting after hatred
Is the dress of sorrows

seijaku wo yusabutta
zetsubou no Wine
ookii naru toki no hate
hibi-wareta Glass

The silence is broken
By the wine of failure
The growing breadth of time
Is the shattered rim of the glass

Table ni naranderu
zankoku na kajitsu
seihai ni michite iru
renmin no namida

Spread upon the table
Is the fruits of cruelty
Filling the holy grail
Are the tears of mercy

arasoi ni chi-nurareta
utsukushii ezara
doukoku ni shibarareta
karisoume no jiyuu

Fouled by strife
Are the well-wrought plates
Fettered by lament
Is trifling excess


Comments
This song just keeps going on and on, but luckily it's a pleasant [if monotonous] song to listen to. It's got a good slow beat, and everyone can hit those notes, and the solo parts are sexy.
