Romaji Lyrics



zankoku na tenshi no you ni

shounen yo shinwa ni nare



aoi kaze ga ima

mune no DOA wo tataite mo

watashi dake wo tada mitsumete

hohoende'ru anata



sotto fureru mono

motomeru koto ni muchuu de

unmei sae mada shiranai

itaike na hitomi



dakedo itsuka kidzuku deshou

sono senaka ni wa

haruka mirai mezasu tame no

hane ga aru koto



zankoku na tenshi no TE-ZE

madobe kara yagate tobitatsu

hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de

omoide wo uragiru nara

kono sora wo daite kagayaku

shounen yo shinwa ni nare



zutto nemutte'ru

watashi no ai no yurikago

anata dake ga yume no shisha ni

yobareru asa ga kuru



hosoi kubisuji wo

tsukiakari ga utsushite'ru

sekai-juu no toki wo tomete

tojikometai kedo



moshimo futari aeta koto ni

imi ga aru nara

watashi wa sou jiyuu wo shiru

tame no BAIBURU



zankoku na tenshi no TE-ZE

kanashimi ga soshite hajimaru

dakishimeta inochi no katachi

sono yume ni mezameta toki

dare yori mo hikari wo hanatsu

shounen yo shinwa ni nare



hito wa ai wo tsumugi nagara

rekishi wo tsukuru

megami nante narenai mama

watashi wa ikiru



zankoku na tenshi no TE-ZE

madobe kara yagate tobitatsu

hotobashiru atsui PATOSU de

omoide wo uragiru nara

kono sora wo daite kagayaku

shounen yo shinwa ni nare





English Translation



Like a cruel angel,

young boy, become the legend!



A blue wind is now

knocking at the door to your heart, and yet

you are merely gazing at me

and smiling.



Something gently touching--

you're so intent on seeking it out,

that you can't even see your fate yet,

with such innocent eyes.



But someday I think you'll find out

that what's on your back

are wings that are for

heading for the far-off fu
