Lyrics

I just tried to take the PATH
that led me to be FREE and ended in this bind
The PAST is what it's called
FILTH is what it is.
That's the wall of the CELL
Fades away
Fades away like footsteps on the shoreline
why? They try to bring me down.
Sky should be high Backflow
HERE we go again CON-tradiction
Should I stay or should I die
TRIED to pave a path
DUG a huge hole
had no clue that was my GRAVE
Fades away
Hands and feet are bound Can't even see
why? They try to bring me down.
Sky should be high Backflow
Backflow
Backflow As dark shades are made by the sun
Backflow good booze is just making it just worse.
Backflow
The more words, the less I get
This world is built in brimstone
Can't you see
The innocent may find the way
Wise men lose track of the single path
No one knows tomorrow
I'll never ever kneel down
Stairway
Jaded town of god What the heck
Stay away Not going there
Sky should be high
Oh Fades away
Fades away like footsteps on the shoreline
(Yeah) Fades away just one moment left
Sky should be high Backflow

自由になろうとして歩み、
たどり着いたのはこの束縛
その名は「過去」、
本質は「汚濁」
それこそがこの牢壁
ああ、消えていく
砂浜の足跡のように、かすれて
なぜ? やつらは俺を引きずり落とそうとする
空は、高くあるべきなのに 逆流だ
さあ、もう一度だ
ああ、この矛盾、とどまるべきか死ぬべきか
道を拓こうとして、彫ったのはドデカい穴
俺の墓穴とも知らずに
ああ、消えていく
手足は縛られ、見ることすらできない
なぜ? やつらは俺を引きずり落とそうとする
空は、高くあるべきなのに 逆流だ
逆流だ
逆流た 日の光が黒い影を生むように
逆流だ 良い酒が気分を悪くする
逆流だ
言葉を費やせば費やすほど得られるものは少ない
この世界は、硫黄でできている
見えないか?
無垢なるものこそが、道を見つけうる
賢人たちが一本道で迷子になる間に
明日を知る者はいないのだ
おれは 膝を 屈しない
すさんだ神の街につづく階段
ああ、なんだってんだ
近づくものか、そこには行かないぞ
空は、高くあるべきだ
おお、消えていく
砂浜の足跡のように、かすれて
そう、消えていく。残る時間はあとわずか
空は、高くあるべきなのに 逆流だ

Trivia

  • During early gameplay footage and the beta version of Guilty Gear -Strive-, the instrumental version of the theme was used during the loading screen before matches. It was replaced with the vocal version in the final game, though the lyrics are only audible if the loading sequence lasts long enough.
