[Verse 1]
Kageki na radi sasayaku me wa kuroi hyo
Kageki na radi keshi no iro no tsume no rain
Dakiagete beddo made hakobuyo
Dokuyaku iri no venezia gurasu
Aoi tabakono rasen kaidan
Ushiro metai kimochini sotto kagi kakete
[Bridge 1]
Jidai wa kageki na shukujo, yashisa yasashisa nara
Anata no kutsu no shita ni aru
[Chorus 1]
Kageki na radi dairiseki ni yokotawaru
Kageki na radi shiroi mune no sakyuu tachi
Kanashimino zipper wa sabi teru
[Verse 2]
Hakka no sake ni anata wa shizuni
Boku wa yuutsu ni motarete nemuru
Toiki dake ga kasokudo tsukete tobikau yo
[Bridge 2]
Tokai wa kageki na shukujo kizutsuke au naifu wa
Shitsu no name nami ni kakushi teru
[Chorus 2]
Kageki na radi yoru ga aketara labyrinth
Kageki na radi basurumu de mezameta yo
Jaguchi kara ma boroshi ga more teru
[Bridge 3]
Jidai wa kagekina shukujyo, nakushita yasashisa nara
Anata no kutsu no shita ni aru
[Chorus 3]
Kageki na radi yoru ga aketara labyrinth
Kageki na radi basurumu de mezameta yo
Jaguchi kara ma boroshi ga more teru
Jaguchi kara ma boroshi ga more teru
