蟲喰う瞳に見せられ息閉じる
撫で下ろした心がポロリ
清々しい太陽が
雨音ザラリグラリ混ざって

裂けた胸 踊らせ 空しさに問う
白い声 漏れる息 in the sun

淫らに開けた傷口
無と消え成る dogma の風
溶け出す君の心臓

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

薄暗い朝 響くサヨナラ

裂けた胸 踊らせ 空しさに問う
ただ今は独りでいたい

Ah ah ah ah ah ah
一輪の春 涙もろい首と地を這う君さえも
Love me

Wah, wah
Abandon hope
Abandon hope, woo

Dir en Grey

Dir En Grey (stylized as DIR EN GREY and previously as Dir en grey) is a Japanese metal band formed in 1997 and currently signed to Firewall Div., a sub-division of Free-Will. As of 2011, they have recorded eight full-length records. While the group's lineup has remained consistent since its inception, numerous stylistic changes have made the genre of their music difficult to determine (though it is generally considered to be a form of metal). Originally a visual kei band, the band has opted for less dramatic attire in recent years. more »
