Silence in the Metropolis

Will my prayers ever reach?

In a city with no tomorrow

An aurora shines...

This town sinking into black night

No one ever looks up to the stars

Shadows with glassy eyes

Keep walking the same old road

In a corner of the fallen Eden

The neon fruit softly glows

On the night we forgot how to pray

I called your name aloud

Even in this world where time has stopped

Still, the wind keeps blowing

Silence in the Metropolis

Where are you, my only one?

Seraphs who never knew the light

Sleep beneath the shuttered sky

If you still exist somewhere

Could you save this ruin from its fate?

Each time the ash rain falls

I call out to you again...

I nearly forgot how to smile

And learned to love only lies

A broken machine’s trembling beat

Mimics the pain inside my chest

On the screen of fabricated truth

What kind of miracle appears?

Instead of a sinking sun

The empty void begins to breathe

In the distant echo of memories

I search for the sound of your voice

Silence in the Metropolis

Will my prayers ever reach?

In a city with no tomorrow

An aurora shines, cold and bright

I’m searching for your shadow now

Against the current I rise

Holding fragments of broken dreams

Close to my trembling heart

We are angels who have fallen down

Forgetting how to spread our wings

Bearing sins, we kept on living

And still, I wait for you

Until you grant salvation

Beneath the sky of the world’s end

Silence in the Metropolis

I keep on calling your name

The name of hope, the name of you

I want to find it beyond the dark

If you still exist somewhere

Could you save this ruin from its fate?

Each time the ash rain falls

I call out to you again...

If something can bloom in ruin’s dust

And that something is love

Then please, once more—

Let there be light... let there be life
