Verse 1 (incomplete)
Ah, it's come at last,
As anticipation steals my heart away.
The night I yearned for long ago,
Ah, it was supposed to be in the past,
But the tattoo remains vivid, carved into my veins,
I wonder if it's raining, even now?

Verse 2 (incomplete)
Cracked glass, the draft chills me to the bone,
And finally, I can see the starry sky,
Time fills space, swimming through the thick mud,
A pathetic prisoner,
This forest is all I can see,
That number that was just granted to you,
Can you dare to shift your soul?
Verse 3 (complete)And finally, I can see the starry sky,
Time fills space, swimming through the thick mud,
A pathetic prisoner,
This forest is all I can see,
That number that was just granted to you,
Can you dare to shift your soul?
Impatience, longing by another name,
Played with my feelings just as sweet.
The name that the gods passed down to me, as a gift,
Is something I've always hated.
Verse 4 (complete)Played with my feelings just as sweet.
The name that the gods passed down to me, as a gift,
Is something I've always hated.

Wings that were singed by the flames of youth,
I can't seem to open them up.
That "you" looking down at me from above,
"You're" nowhere to be found,
It's just darkness.
Verse 5 (incomplete)Wings that were singed by the flames of youth,
I can't seem to open them up.
That "you" looking down at me from above,
"You're" nowhere to be found,
It's just darkness.
Memories flooding my senses overwhelmed me,
It cut me deeply,
Crying, crying, crying all the static out.
I'll cut through the wind, piercing through the night.
Take me away, I don't care if malaise knocks me back.
Rising from the bottom, bottom, to the blueness of the sky,
Still wounded, changing, evolving,
To the lights floating up high in the starry sky.
Verse 6 (complete)It cut me deeply,
Crying, crying, crying all the static out.
I'll cut through the wind, piercing through the night.
Take me away, I don't care if malaise knocks me back.
Rising from the bottom, bottom, to the blueness of the sky,
Still wounded, changing, evolving,
To the lights floating up high in the starry sky.
Reincarnation of souls? Did I hear you right?
I don't really believe in that sorta thing.
Those eyes so clouded,
With greys of stormy night,
A rusty hammer, sleep's evading me now.
Verse 7 (incomplete)I don't really believe in that sorta thing.
Those eyes so clouded,
With greys of stormy night,
A rusty hammer, sleep's evading me now.
I know that that tiny skill is still trapped within its fleshy prison,
I try to picture the ideal self,
But all I see is a barely visible outline.
The morning cuts through,
Is it okay for me say it now?
Verse 8 (incomplete)I try to picture the ideal self,
But all I see is a barely visible outline.
The morning cuts through,
Is it okay for me say it now?
Ah, the brightness of that blue overstimulates me to tears,
I just wanna move forward, nothing else matters to me.
Serious to the end,
Fallen into mediocrity, a genius,
Even so, I refuse to trace the same path twice.
Verse 9 (incomplete)I just wanna move forward, nothing else matters to me.

Fallen into mediocrity, a genius,
Even so, I refuse to trace the same path twice.
Emergence,
The shape of life,
It's forever thought-stopping.
Obeying orders from above.
Verse 10 (complete)The shape of life,
It's forever thought-stopping.
Obeying orders from above.
A heart that can't be satisfied,
Dragging feet through the wilderness, carving spirals,
Burden of dreams,
A curtain call is not what I'm asking for, you know?
Verse 11 (complete)Dragging feet through the wilderness, carving spirals,
Burden of dreams,
A curtain call is not what I'm asking for, you know?
Vividly despairing,
To the shining constellations,
Denying the judgment handed down to me by the gods,
I weakly unfurled my wings.

Verse 12 (complete)
[Be Silent]
In this painful world, once again,
I'm ready to descend from my nest,
Turning you into some other form of being.
Names and fronts are without meaning now.

Verse 13 (complete)
Now that dawn is slashing straight through the darkness,
So dazzling that it seems to burn up all that's in its path,
I'll cut through the wind, piercing through the night.
Take me away,
Let's start over from the beginning.

Verse 14 (complete)
Falling to the Earth,
The outline melts away at the horizon,
Changing, shifting, evolving,
When I next open my swollen eyes,
What will I be forced to bear witness to?
