Full Lyrics
Kyoukai no Enmoku
Crazed Monster’s Resentful Silence -Program of the Boundary-1
Your true nature is ferocious, isn’t it?
Shall we unveil your mimicry?
(Eichi - Yuzuru) There is no need to hide the smoldering resentment you carry
A fate void of conviction; I let my feelings burn wild as they please
(Madara - Eichi) As we come face to face
In an encounter with a monster assuming a human-like form
There is no room for bargaining
(Madara - Eichi) And no need for lies
It scorches my body, leaves me without breath, drives my soul mad
I’ve been singed
With this hatred
Now, I’ll release it all
There is no need to hold back
You hold that expression now
But I’m going to distort it until that faint smile is gone
Now, shall we come together and play
The program of the boundary?2
With my hand raised in the air
I play the funeral march
Shedding blood,
Baring my fangs,
Devouring until nothing is left
Compared to understanding each other, this is a much more certain form of empathy
Don’t you agree?
If the sword of judgment has gone dull, what is the point of swinging it?
Untainted hands suffer no pain
A crystalline future has no need for the past
We can wrench it off and do away with it
(Madara - Wataru) Even if the monster capable of taking everything away wishes for it,
There is no way to turn back time
(Madara - Eichi) That is the cruelty of our encounter
“What you wish for”, “Who you want to save”, those minute distinctions
Are not justice,
Nor ideals
They hold no meaning
Then why, am I still
Unable to quench my thirst?
(Madara - Yuzuru) Maybe all I can do is reach out from the shadow I’m ingrained in
Without the past,
There is no present
That’s why, right here
Both my hatred
And even my sins
I’ll release them all
I’m going to live on my own terms
Until my final day
(Madara - Eichi) I just have to crush the obsessions that held me captive
If you are a “person”, you can change
And overcome that boundary
(Eichi - Tori) To arrive at hope
From a requiem of regret
(Madara - Eichi) Shedding blood,
Baring my fangs,
Revealing everything
Instead of mutual understanding, we’re aiming for certain liberation
To come tomorrow
Translation Notes
- ↑ Phonetically, the title of the song is "Kyoukai no Enmoku", but it’s spelled with non-standard kanji, hence why the original title has katakana to guide the pronunciation. My translation of the title reflects this distinction by interpreting the kanji rendition according to the meaning of the kanji, and the katakana rendition according to the phonetics. "Kyoukai" has multiple homophones, but I chose "Program of the Boundary" because the word 境界 (pronounced kyoukai) appears later in the lyrics.
- ↑ The same distinction appears here as in the title of the song. The line as translated here is what is being said phonetically, but it’s spelled as in the title.
