There is but one light that glimmers and will linger on,
Shining brightly in the flow of eras
Engraving into the memories of all the world
I will make all of them believers
I had a dream I knew that no one else could achieve
So I threw away everything that I didn't need
These thoughts that dwell within my chest are never surrendering
Even if there's a rift between ideals and reality
and shackles of such sacrifice are still bound around me
My impulses have not been repressed, never, not at all
For deep in my heart I'm yearning still for power I deserve
Pretense, Fear, and Vanity, and weakness such as grief
I won't be held back by these foolish things
I won't be apprehended by negativity
There's no loneliness for a trickster
Skyscrapers that stretch, piercing the heavens from afar
I see them and their lights and how they all hide the stars
And I wonder will I be lost? Is that all that we really are?
No, those people who are smeared and ruined by this bleak city
This warped infatuation will never happen to me
For, unlike them I'll keep my eye on the future ahead
I want to find something that I can grasp with my own two hands
(musical interlude) 3:00
And when I close my eyes
It forms before me just like a sweet dream
Could it be?
Finally?
Everything I've worked for is becoming certainty
(musical interlude) 3:35
Spending all your life limited to what you're told to do
The man who rots away is no more than your average fool
I want to keep striving for what no one else can possess,
My crystallized placement as myself, your leader to be blessed
It's fact that shortly the entire world will see my way
My ideals will turn into truth someday
I will continue to believe as a stubborn youth
It's just my faith, the absolute truth
There is but one light that glimmers and will linger on,
Shining brightly in the flow of eras
Engraving into the memories of all the world
I will make all of them believers
Good english cover but not even close to the lyrics the show provides... I remember it as... Deciet, Fear, Vanity, Malecholy... Im not weak enough to believe any of the negative perseptions, Im a trickster who doesnt know solitude... Different way to translate it i suppose

@LongLiveJapan0 I imagine it just depends on which english translation you look up. :)

japanese songs should stay japanese, singing the jap version would be much much better!

@pandlaugh I'd rather translate it in English and sing it correctly than sing it in Japanese incorrectly. It's disrespectful to the language, and since I don't speak Japanese, it's likely I'll do it wrong.
