Having loved all the previous nomico songs, I must say, I was expecting a lot better from this one. That said, the lyrics are still alright. Darkness Power would have made a much more powerful leading track though.

もうすぐ暖かな日差し
溶かすの白い雪の花
あたしの周りだけ染める
冷たさは変わらない
mou sugu atataka na hizashi
tokasu no shiroi yuki no hana
atashi no mawari dake someru
tsumetasa wa kawaranai
Soon the warm sunlight will thaw the white snow flowers Only the cold colouring my surroundings remains unchanged
命の芽吹きは綺麗で
触れれば熱を奪い取る
どうして分かり合えないの
温もりは知らないの
inochi no mebuki wa kirei de
furereba netsu o ubai toru
doushite wakari aenai no
nukumori wa shiranai no
The budding of life is pretty but when I touch it, I steal away its heat Why can’t we come to an understanding? I don’t know what warmth feels like
緑が風に揺れている
あなたに触れられないなら
あたしは一人きりでいい
そう思う日もあった
midori ga kaze ni yureteiru
anata ni furerarenai nara
atashi wa hitori kiri de ii
sou omou hi mo atta
Greenery sways in the wind If I can’t touch you then I’m fine being all alone There have been days I thought that
願いがひとつ叶うなら
触れたい熱を感じたい
氷のように止まる一瞬
今はまだ知らないの
negai ga hitotsu kanau nara
furetai netsu o kanjitai
koori no you ni tomaru toki
ima wa mada shiranai no
If this one wish of mine comes true I want to experience the heat that I want to feel Time freezes like ice for a moment I still don’t know what it’s like
I feel the power of darkness running through my veins. I like the night because it’s as black as my heart. Etc. This is my favourite song from the album.
You might notice these lyrics are not by Haruka this time, and it’s somewhat noticable, with new vocabulary and a lot of onomatopoeia, but I still think they’re pretty good.

ashimoto ga furatsuku chi ni tsuitenai you
kokoro ga moya moya kara kara hikarabite ku
toji kometa yokei na kotoba afure dashite
omotte mo nai koto boro boro koboshite
The ground beneath me shakes, as if it’s come out from under my feet In a slump, my heart rattles, drying away Uncalled for words I held in begin to overflow Even what I’m not thinking of drips and drips on out
yari naoshite maki modoshite
modoreru wake ga nai noni
kako no sugaru kono mama de wa
mirai ni kitai dekinai
kirabiyaka na sekai no naka
itsu mo wa kage ni ikiteta
fumi dashitemo ii n janai
sukoshi wa going on sou gouin ni
There’s no way I can go back or turn back time and do it all again but as I am now, clinging to the past, I can’t look forward to the future In such a dazzling world, I’ve always lived in the shadows Wouldn’t it be alright for me to step out? For a little while, going on so forcibly
ashita wa doko doko ni susunde ku
tic tac tic ugoke watashi no kodou
ashita wa ame dakedo kirai janai
tic tac tic mawaru tokei no byoushin
aisowarai toboketa furi toka
tic tac tic kore ga ima no sei ippai
nozomi dooru ikanakutemo ii
tic tac tic tsune ni hashiri tsudzukeru
Tomorrow, where, oh where shall I go? Tic tac tic, get moving, my pulse Tomorrow’s rainy, but I don’t mind Tic tac tic, the clock’s second hand goes around Feigning smiles, playing dumb and such Tic tac tic, this is the best I can do for now It’s okay even if it doesn’t go my way Tic tac tic, I’ll always continue to run on
nani ka mono tarinai naze ka mitasarenai
kodoku ni nomarete kara kara nodo ga kawaku
donna ni ganbattemo dare ni mo kidzukarezu
nani mo nai watashi boro boro namida ga
Something’s missing, I don’t feel satisfied Swallowed by solitude, my throat rattles, drying up No matter how hard I try, nobody notices me Having nothing to my name, the tears drip and drip
yari naoshite maki modoshite
kawareru wake ga nai noni
koko ni aru no mirai no kagi
tobira o akete tobi dase
kirabiyaka na sekai no naka
hekonde naiteiru kedo
ima wa hitori mae o mukeru
mae yori going on sou gouin ni
There’s no way I can change or turn back time and do it all again Is the key to the future here? Open the door and fly on through In such a dazzling world, though I collapse and cry, all alone, I now look forward More than before, going on so forcibly
ashita wa doko doko ni susunde ku
tic tac tic ugoke watashi no kodou
ashita wa ame dakedo kirai janai
tic tac tic mawaru tokei no byoushin
aisowarai toboketa furi toka
tic tac tic kore ga ima no sei ippai
nozomi dooru ikanakutemo ii
tic tac tic tsune ni hashiri tsudzukeru
Tomorrow, where, oh where shall I go? Tic tac tic, get moving, my pulse Tomorrow’s rainy, but I don’t mind Tic tac tic, the clock’s second hand goes around Feigning smiles, playing dumb and such Tic tac tic, this is the best I can do for now It’s okay even if it doesn’t go my way Tic tac tic, I’ll always continue to run on
Best ending song I’ve heard this season, and I love how the show integrates it by often playing it over important scenes. I think these lyrics come from the perspective of Emilia.
Note the attached video is not the full song, but what has been officially uploaded by Kadokawa. It goes pretty far though.

Oh, please don’t let me die Waiting for your touch No, don’t give up on life This endless dead end
狂った時計 刻む命
こぼれてく記憶と砂
芽生えた想いまで
ねえ こんなに呆気なく
消えてしまうの
I wish I was there
kurutta tokei kizamu inochi
koborete ku kioku to suna
mebaeta omoi made
nee konna ni akkenaku
kiete shimau no
I wish I was there
The askew clock counts down life Memories and sand spill down Will even these budding feelings, hey, tell me, will they disappear this easily? I wish I was there
Oh, please don’t let me die
Waiting for your touch
二度となにも失くさぬように
私を忘れて 始めて ”Restart”
No don’t give up on life
This endless dead end
君を砕くこの悲しみが
いつか終わりますように
For now I’ll see you off
Oh, please don’t let me die
Waiting for your touch
nido to nani mo nakusanu you ni
watashi o wasurete hajimete “Restart”
No, don’t give up on life
This endless dead end
kimi o kudaku kono kanashimi ga
itsu ka owarimasu you ni
For now I’ll see you off
Oh, please don’t let me die Waiting for your touch So that you may never lose anything ever again, forget me and start again – “Restart” No, don’t give up on life This endless dead end May this anguish crushing you someday come to an end For now I’ll see you off
My time is spinning around Your deep black eyes I forgot what time it is And our memories are gone…?
甘い香り放つ
追憶という名の罠
誘われ囚われ
なぜ抗えもせず また
溺れてしまうの
I wish you were here
amai kaori hanatsu
kioku to iu na no wana
sasoware toraware
naze aragae mo sezu mata
oborete shimau no
I wish you were here
A sweet smell is released A trap by the name of nostalgia Lured in and trapped, why do I drown again without even struggling? I wish you were here
Oh, never close your eyes
Searching for a true fate
どこか消えたあのぬくもりを
追いかけ続けて 見失う ”Restart”
So, let us try again
From the very first time
“きっときっと” そうやって今も
虚しい輪を描いてる
For now, see you again
Oh, never close your eyes
Searching for a true fate
doko ka kieta ano nukumori o
oi kake tsudzukete mi ushinau “Restart”
So, let us try again
From the very first time
“kitto kitto” sou yatte ima mo
munashii wa o egaiteru
For now, see you again
Oh, never close your eyes Searching for a true fate After losing sight of that warmth you continue to chase which disappeared somewhere along the line, “Restart” So, let us try again From the very first time “I’m sure, I’m sure” – like that, you’re still drawing a circle pointlessly For now, see you again
…fading in, fading out…
I wish we were there
あの日々には戻れない
時は強く 悲しく強く
ただただ進んでゆくだけ ”Restart”
No, don’t give up on life
This endless dead end
振り返らない そんな強さを
誰も皆演じている
For now I’ll see you off
ano hibi ni wa modorenai
toki wa tsuyoku tsuyoku kanashiku tsuyoku
tada tada susunde yuku dake “Restart”
No, don’t give up on life
This endless dead end
furi kaeranai sonna tsuyosa o
dare mo mina enjiteiru
For now I’ll see you off
It’s not possible to go back that far, to those old days Time is strong, sadly strong All you can do is just keep moving on and “Restart” No, don’t give up on life This endless dead end The strength it takes to not look back everyone is just pretending to have For now I’ll see you off
taisetsu na omoide o Bag ni tsumete
hitori tobi noru Midnight Train
yukusaki wa doko made mo tooi ginga
yureru hoshi o minagara…
Putting all my important memories into my bag, all alone I jump aboard the midnight train My destination is an ever far galaxy while looking at the flickering stars…
例えばどこかで 君のこと 忘れる時が来ても
ふたりで見上げた 星空を観れば 想い出すから…
tatoeba doko ka de kimi no koto wasureru toki ga kitemo
futari de mi ageta hoshizora o mireba omoi dasu kara…
Even if a time when I forget about you comes, as long as I watch the starry sky we both looked up at, I’ll remember again…
駆けてゆく Starlight Train, with love
止まらずに 夢を目指すよ
いつかまた 君と云う
-星空に逢いたいな-
kakete yuku Starlight Train, with love
tomarazu ni yume o mezasu yo
itsu ka mata kimi to iu
-hoshizora ni aitai na-
Racing along, the starlight train, with love Without braking, heading for dreams Someday I really want to see again -the starry sky called you-
tsunaida kimi to no te no nukumori o
ima demo… ima demo, taisetsu ni shiteru yo…
kienai de wasurenai de nukumori no kazu no yasashisa ga koko ni aru
The warmth when we held our hands I’m still… still cherishing dearly… Don’t disappear and don’t forget… for each bit of warmth, there’s kindness here, in my heart
駆け抜ける Starlight Train, with love
止まらずに 夢を目指すよ
いつかまた 君と云う
-星空に逢えるまで-
kake nukeru Starlight Train, with love
tomarazu ni yume o mezasu yo
itsu ka mata kimi to iu
-hoshizora ni aeru made-
Racing on through, the starlight train, with love Without braking, heading for dreams Until someday I can see again -the starry sky called you-
