L'Arc~en~Ciel AWAKE
New World
There is one reality
it's foolish to look back on yesterday
the sky unending, goes on forever
to a world without shadows
the voice of awakening, that reaches me through the noise
(Stand up for your final choice! Now the time of fate has come.)
grab the light that spills from a rift in the darkness, and raise it up
I'm awakening in the new world
if you'll put out your hands for me,
I can whisk you away
floating higher than anyone else
to the zero gravity zone we achieved
the voice awakening, aware of the countdown to freedom
(Stand up for your final choice! Now the time of fate has come.)
spread your well honed wings, take to the wind, and fly off
your heart racing out of control, echoes across time
I'm awakening in the new world
the warped after-image melts and washes away
(Stand up for your final choice! Now the time of fate has come.)
the track I draw goes through the sky, an endless ascent
(Fly away beyond the clouds. Will you still be in your dreams?)
grab the light that spills from a rift in the darkness, and raise it up
connect to this moment you longed for.
I fly higher and higher up with the voice you gave me
the future spilling over, pouring out so much it dazzles
I'm awakening in the new world
Lost Heaven
Woah! with our dreams together as one
onward to a never ending paradise
a distant road we ran down
unable to even find something to lose
we didn't have any reason to doubt
We'll say goodbye, lost Heaven.
How we longed for Heaven.
We're letting go of something we never had.
Time goes so fast, Heaven is lost.
the dream we caught hold of when we reached out our hands
was a gently crumbling castle of sand
I'm left just standing there at the fork in the road,
as you disappear toward the paradise you dreamed of
leaving me with a smile.
We'll say goodbye, lost Heaven.
How we longed for Heaven.
We're letting go of something we never had.
Time goes so fast, Heaven is lost.
all that stardust in the sky that can't come together as one
a bouquet of red flowers for the end of this play
even if what I see ahead as I start off again is just a mirage
We'll say goodbye, lost Heaven
We'll say goodbye, lost Heaven.
How we longed for Heaven.
We're letting go of something we never had.
Time goes so fast, Heaven!
I wish you good luck. I still remember every day.

I couldn't find the English lyrics for this anywhere. If you do find them, then tell me.
Trust
By the filled waterside
someone's calling voice resounds
On the way to the quiet sleep
the drop from the sky splits the darkness
I beckon, the spiral of light, beyond there
Does a gentle future exist?
Come into the light
Is it all right to trust in those words?
Come into the light
Surely it is a dream-like world
Not even knowing the overflowing tears
protected by the throbbing
In the gentle melody
I want to keep swimming
Cold, the door of light, beyond there
Does a future without sadness exist?
Come into the light
Is it all right to trust in those words?
Come into the light
It's surely a dream-like world
Come into the light
Will I be able to encounter the distance tenderness?
Come into the light
Will I be able to sleep, while holding the joy?
Come into the light
The flame of conflict will be distinguished?
Come into the light
Surely it is a dream-like world
Come into the light. I'm here
Killing Me
burned by a sun that will one day set
if I reach out, I can almost touch it
my wasted dream
stay up all night with the roar, *1
no clue where I'm headed.
I can't do anything with the hole in my heart *2
even love spills out
Killing Me with a kiss so sweet it nearly breaks me
surely, there's no awakening from this dream
stop the world, I want to keep melting forever
don't open your eyes. ah Broken Time *3
fly high the banner of what you believe is right
paint it out to the ends of the world
pretending not to see, I laugh innocently
the future lying at my fingertips
Killing Me with a kiss so sweet it could break me
surely, there's no awakening from this dream
stop the world,
I'll never crumble, because now, I found love
Ah Broken Time
Killing Me with a kiss so sweet it nearly breaks me
surely, there's no awakening from this dream
stop the world,
before you're gone from my side for good,
Kiss Me, with a kiss so sweet it nearly breaks me
I want to keep melting forever
don't open your eyes, Ah broken time

History repeating - panic and confusion
History is weeping - sense of disillusion
History repeating - pieces of a puzzle
Why can’t we just live as one?
Nowhere to run - we’re seeking redemption
No waiting for divine intervention
Search for the tree that overcomes death
Taking the fruit - discover a new way to breathe
michi he no KEY wo sashite ochi iku sei ni sousa wo
History repeating - panic and confusion
History is weeping - sense of disillusion
History repeating - pieces of a puzzle
Why can’t we just live as one?
Nowhere to run - we’re seeking redemption
No waiting for divine intervention
Search for the tree that overcomes death
Taking the fruit - discover a new way to breathe
History repeating - science and perversion
History is weeping - weapons of destruction
History repeating - in our final hour
Why can’t we just live as one?
Nowhere to run, we’re seeking redemption
No waiting for divine intervention
Search for the tree that overcomes death
Taking the fruit - discover a new way to breathe
My Dear
Well, searching for love... Look!
Beyond the deep forest...
(real love, my dear, is not for sale)
Even looking as hard as I could, I still couldn't find it, but...
(real love, my dear, is hard to find)
Listen! The whole world is becoming corrupted, going wrong
But my hand waiting here for yours will never let go
That's the only thing you can trust in!
Finally you held out your hand and took mine- I happily embraced you
(real faith, my dear, is far too fake)
But that was very short-lived and soon it withered away and rotted into nothing
(real faith, my dear, is just a dream)
Someday in this world we'll meet in happiness
If I can happen to meet you, how ridiculous this unending sadness will seem
I made my decision, although I didn't show it.
Where can it be... in my heart.
Listen! The whole world is becoming corrupted, going wrong
But my hand waiting here for yours will never let go
That's the only thing you can trust in!
Even this feeling I have... Even if I have to believe in it by lying to myself, I'll do it.
Light will forever shine in you
That's the only thing I can trust in!
EXISTENCE
Couldn't find.
Jiyuu e no Shoutai (Invitation to Freedom)
The temptation to run wild, it sucks to be stuck in traffic
holding it all in, an invitation to freedom
it's slow going, quick to give the middle finger
a sour face, symptoms beyond my control
hurrying, racing around your maze
where you go is up to you but,
could you stay out of my way?
tragically
these feelings
I never make known to you
I'll carefully put in my trunk.
an eyesore of a holiday, a good-natured predisposition
Only now, is there a special exception for lashing out
man, the times change so quickly
flying through the hustle and bustle all over town, If I could just get a little further ahead,
I want to see you
but it never goes like that
but I wish.
today's the day I set my sights
and slip out a break in traffic
towards a smile
this moment only happens once
the past I passed
gazing at the future that seems to be laughing at me.
even when I'm so close, you're far away
please, somebody invite me to freedom!
I want to see you,
but it never goes like that
but I wish.
today's the day I set my sights
and slip out a break in traffic
towards a smile
Ophelia
Wrapped in the delicate dress, you sparkle
sweetly intoxicated by the drifting scent of black currants
My dearest Opehlia - what's the reason for your silence?
Your lips as cold as ice
My dearest Opehlia - Will you speak to me no more?
You swim in the glass filled with memories
the gesture which conceals sorrow stabs my heart
My dearest Ophelia ¨C there are things I never told you¡¡
Falling into the dream¡¡
My dearest Ophelia ¨C can you trust in me no more?
To the smooth skin I send endless kisses
if it be allowed then I want to give you this love
I wander far
Through how many love and punishment can I find my way to you?
please answer Ophelia
Like that day, hold me, say lies, and smile
I pray for those eyes to open
I wander far
To the smooth skin I send endless kisses
you, who float up at night, are way too far away
I search in vain
Hoshizora
The swaying haze is the trace of dreams
The town, frightened by darkess, goes to sleep
The small joy on top of the rubble
I, who watch the stars, am born here
NOBODY KNOWS. NOBODY CARE
I HAVE LOST EVERYTHING TO BOMBS
Nee...to the vivid, dreaming world
It would be good if I awake and it is changing
Your town, pasted by the window
How far is it from here?
NOBODY KNOWS. NOBODY CARES.
THEY JUST TOOK EVERYTHING I HAD.
Nee..you, with the gentle smile, are here
I want to run out and enter into the picture
NOBODY KNOWS. NOBODY CARES.
I HAVE LOST EVERYTHING TO BOMBS
(Nobody knows. £¦ Nobody cares. Don¡¯t say good bye )
Nee...the starry sky that rains down is beautiful
Because I want to show it to you one day
It would be good if I awake and it changes
To the world where conflicts have ended
