Serenade of Atonement

I give my first cry from the abyss of my black slumber 
And while wandering, I continue searching for a pact 
Deadly Fall

Still enticed by a crimson, moonlit night 
In my memories I go on lamenting

All of it is a contrived sin 
The rain falls cruelly 
Until people's pain and dirty dreams 
Are returned to the ends of the earth

Maschera, sounding of grief 
I am embraced in a kind melody 
Maschera, Let me hear your words 
And I shall fall into the darkness again

The fragments of the feelings I lost 
Inside of a multicolor dream 
In the piled on paper-mache of pretenses I am clad in 
There are drifting lives and warped reasoning

I listened closely 
And asked myself 
How do I lose it? How do I obtain it? 
Who can go on smiling until the very end?

Maschera, in the flickering light 
Spin up a tomorrow that you cannot return to 
Maschera, Tell me of your tears 
At least before my dream is in a dream

Maschera, sounding of love 
I am embraced in a sad melody 
Maschera, Let me hear your words 
For I am still falling in the sky 
Maschera, I love you 
And just that is enough to make me suffer 
Maschera, you killed my heart 
Since that day, it has not stopped ringing 
Hear the sound of my heart

Unaccomplished

Stepping through the threshold
Into a world that isn't familiar
Even though I'm not that far
I feel like I am leagues away

I look back and count my steps
I look forward and take a step up
Into the world I just found
Where will it lead me to?

From a small town nobodies heard of
I rose from the depths of a silent country
And came into the loud cities of civilazation

In an unfamiliar territory
I quickly, quickly rose to my feet
And looked around me
Suddenly becoming recognized around the world
I'm waiting
My heart went ba-bump ba-bump

As time went by my fame only grew more
I was known all around the world
But something still bothered me

Who was going to follow me?
How could anyone better me?
Everything has lost its fun,
Its challenging appeal

Fast and faster and faster
Everything was so easy
I no longer felt that I accomplished anything

I am deteriorating
Please rescue, rescue me now
I don't want to be bored
Waiting for a powerful trainer to come across me

I want to battle
A battle that will show me that light again
So that I may enjoy a life of battling once more

"Who are you?"
"I'm Bob! I will one day become the champion!"
"Oh? That's hard to believe. I guess I'll let you battle me."
"Don't look down on me! I will prove to the world that I'm
a champion! Come on! Let's battle!"

Battling you has opened my eyes
To that oh so bright light
I am, I am so happy that I met you
For the first time in a long time,
A smile cracks on my face

Exchanging moves with you back and forth
Is the most, the most fun I've ever had
I can see you will one day better me
I hope that it goes well for you
I hope that you'll still be able to smile
I know you'll go on as a champion

Searching For You

The seasons passed by slowly
And the memories never left their place
And I waited

It's always on my mind
Where would I be if I could follow you?
The leaves fall to the ground
As Autumn's wind blows
Into the next day

Standing there still, I will be there for you
I wait patiently for you
I close my eyes
And dream of you
When we still could laugh and smile unaware of everything

Through the fields and the mountains
We would run side-by-side
Always smiling, having fun with each other

Living each day like it's the last
I never wanted it to end
I wanted you to always be there
No matter, they came to an end

Turning the pages of my diary
"Goodbye" was written on that day
I was looking forward,
Hoping I'd see you return
With a large grin

Time went by as I looked for you
But I couldn't find you
I looked for you anyway
Until I fell asleep
Until I couldn't walk
I tried to find you, never giving up on the search

All across the country I wandered
Wishing to see you once again
I thought I saw you,
But it wasn't you

Looking into every building,
Asking everyone all around the world
I looked for you, I didn't give up
I refuse to stop searching for you

When I finally found you, I was so happy
I could barely keep it in
Tears fell down my cheek

I embraced you tightly, and told you how much I missed you
Yet I couldn't say it
I could barely tell you it


My heart beating quickly, I was so scared to say it
Yet I had to tell you
I miss you so much, I can't express it very well
But I know that I must tell you
I've never been so happy to see you again

I want to come with you the rest of the way
But I have something else to tell you
What I want to say is

I want to say..
I always... always
For a very long time
I've always loved you
Ah, Come on, let's go on our way

Hero

-Japanese

-English
Hero, an energy
Hero, that we all have
Hero, all you gotta do is awaken it!

Stuck in a corner, nowhere to go
Instead of running, you charge ahead

A villian smirking
An evil plan
So, you gotta spoil it!

For everybody
For that one person
You gotta power up and fight!

Hero, is always fighting
Hero, for the ones they love
Hero, it's in all of our hearts!

Sometimes you may fail, but no matter what
You cannot give up, you gotta believe!
Nothing is all that easy, but you must know this
You have to show them what it is to have hope

For all that you've known
For the one you love
You simply must power up for everyone!

Hero, an energy
Hero, that we all have
Hero, all you gotta do is awaken it!

Problem after problem you must face
There is always a solution for you

Hero, we all know that you
Hero, can do it
Hero, we believe you can power up

Hero, an energy
Hero, that we all have
Hero, all you gotta do is awaken it!
Believe in it!

Skull's Life

When I was young, my father gave me a mask
I hid it deep beneath the ground

Now I have become all too familiar with it
I fear I've grown addicted, but it's necessary

No longer able to see my face, I have lost my name
If someone asked for it, I'd tell them I can't answer

In death and life, I see my friends pass away
If I could still cry, tears would fall

When I was still alive and happy, smiling all the time,
I had a beautiful wife and children

Attempting to stone me to death, they cried in fear
Regretting what I would've said, I wished I said it
But all I can do is look back and remember the pain I felt
Heart broken, I can only mourn deep inside

In the end, I teamed up with my only enemy to fight evil
Some day, I knew he would bring eternal rest to me
All those I've grown to love surround me right right now
He whispers his name in my ear

I had a vision of the thousands years I had lived
For the first time in a long time, I shed tears

I may have some regrets left, but it's alright
At least I'm dying with many memories

Those I loved when I was alive congratulate me
And I close my eyes and slipped off for the last time

Heart of a Hero

Somewhere deep in your world
The surface is covered in ruins
Nobody said that it was apparent

Whatever makes you do this
Is a mystery to even me
You repeatingly ask the same question
Again and again

A hero
Is there one
That truly reside deep in my heart?

The darkness
Is not too far
So where are you looking right now?

You don't
Have to worry about it

So just keep
Looking up

Crimson flames cover the earth
Wherever it is that you look
Death is right behind you, at your heels

You don't know when you're supposed to give up
But it doesn't really matter
Everyone is looking up at you right now

The darkness
Is in your mind
Never having left in the first place

The darkness
Is not too far
So where are you looking right now?

You don't
Have to worry about it

So just keep
Looking up

There is a
Hero in your heart
All you have to do is believe in it

The darkness
Is already running
From that light that you created

Everyone's looking up
Right at you
Don't loose hope

You're my hero
Believe in the power you hold
You cannot give up no matter what happens

But don't worry
You are a hero
In everyone's eyes

Okkusenman

-English
I've done this when I was a kid

It's a faded memory
A red and white cap on my head
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!
When I was a kid, a fond memory
When I eat curry and stuff
Silver spoons on my eyes
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!

But now I've forgotten all that

And I'm living each day
Like I'm being chased by something

Even if I look back

(In the forgotten photo album)
I can't go back to those times
(Photos of myself doing stupid things)
Anymore
(Laughing with friends)
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!
Where are those guys now?
What are? they doing?
The answer is still unclear
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!

But now I've forgotten all that

And I'm living each day
Like I'm being chased by something

The courage you gave me is

110 Billion! 110 Billion!
The seasons that have passed were
Dramatic

We've done this when we were kids

Wearing the 3D glasses
That came with magazines
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!
Memories we've forgotten as we grew up
Revives vividly
Making an L with our arms
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!

But now I've forgotten all that

And I'm living each day
Like I'm being chased by something

Even if I look back

(Opening the aged diary)
I can't go back to those times
(On the faded pages)
Anymore
(The name of my first crush)
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!
Now I just look back to those times
I was able to laugh innocently
Unaware of inpure things
Ultraman, Ultraman Seven!

But now I've forgotten all that

And I'm living each day
Like I'm being chased by something

The scenery I've overlooked was

110 Billion! 110 Billion!
The seasons that have passed were
Graffiti
The courage you gave me was
110 Billion! 110 Billion!
The seasons that? have passed were
Dramatic

Champion!

Falling gracefully, always landing on your feet
if you slip, you just get back up
Springing up with more strength

You burst into the sky and fly to your highest dream
Piercing the darkness ahead of you
There is nothing you can't do

Reach up and grasp your dream
Run off into the day
Spread your wings, reflect the light

Be a champion!

Climbing up the sky, reaching higher than ever
There are no limits, so what are you waiting for?

Onto the highest point of the tallest mountain
To get done, all you have to is jump

Champion! Champion!

You're bound to loose someday, but don't fret on it
Pierce the darkness, and continue
Don't let it slow you down at all

A dream can't have its limits
Never stop dreaming
And you will rise high

Be a champion!

Small obstacles always seem bigger
But no matter what, they can't stop you forever

Believe in yourself, and then you can fly
With your wings, fly to your highest dreams

Champion! Champion!

Be a... be a... Be a champion!

Flying into your highest dreams on a mountain
You will never tire always flying

Before you even realize it you are the champion
You can't rest just yet, you have a long way to go

Champion! Champion!

Beautiful World

I open my eyes to see a beauty
What is this beauty you ask?
I think it's called the world

Wind blowing through my hair
It carries a great scent with it

Soft waves silently lap at my feet
The water seems to go on forever

A lush green forest
To the barren wastelands
All of it is beautiful in my eyes
Surpassing my expectations

A dream overlapping reality
Is any of this really there?
No matter how many times

A beauty so unworldly
Could this be our world?
I still cannot believe it

The stars shine down on me
I wish I could count them all

Massive clouds float over all I know
The variety of the shapes is amazing

No matter how many times I see it
I still cannot comprehend
The beauty that lays out before me

Even when I close my eyes
The scenary is stuck in my head
It is so beautiful

The stars to the earth
The mountains to the fields
The forest to the deserts
The ocean to the ground
The sun to the moon
Fire to water
Beauties so stunning

A dream that seems so real
Or is it the world we live on?
I don't really care anymore

An ever expanding land
It only gets better
I hope it never ends

I close my eyes
And I slip away
