Mizu kagami nozoku kao ni

Ukabu no wa namida

Furi shikiru ah kanashimi

Nidoto hare nai deshou

Fuyu ni chiru kareha-tachi yo

Issho ni kono higeki enjite kudasai

Warau koto sae wasureta MARIONETTO yo

Kanau mono nara subete ga

Yume de atte hoshii

Nozomanai kara

Negawaku ba ah subete o

English (Unofficial)
On the face reflecting through the water

Arises tears

Raining down, ah, the grief

It will never be sunny again

As all the dead leaves scatter in winter

I want you to perform in this tragedy with me

I’m a marionette who’s forgotten how to even laugh

If it‘s something that can be done, then everything...

I wish for it to be a dream

(Instrumental)

Helpless to an irredeemable fate

I don’t want to believe it

God is truly testing me

This is what I’ve given you

I feel pity for you, false seraph

I want to jump down from the stage,

As the curtain goes down

It’s too much, ahh, the sorrow

It’s the ending

Already, ahh, sigh

Has it arrived?

The audience too, ahh, they’re applauding

I don’t want it

I wish that, ahh, everything

Could please, be a dream
