Lyrics

ミチル • メイファン • 栞 • やちよ • 小春 • 涼 • クロディーヌ • 静羽 エーデルはこの手に 民衆よ騒ぐな 国が支配する 戦慄の目線が 我々を狙う 宝を守れ今！ 形ないものに形を造り 人は争いを始めた 色なきものに色彩を与え 人は争いを始めた 価値もなき存在に 命を与えたのは 誰でもない私なのだ いいや この場所に生まれた 命を見つけたのは 誰でもない私なのです 醜さは見えないものを 美しくする 儚さが見えないものを 愛おしくする 消えさせぬ私たちの 自惚れだとしても 不確かなマスカレーダー 誰にも渡さぬと 強気な顔 不確かなマスカレーダー 羨望の眼差しが 逸らさない！

Michiru • Mei Fan • Shiori • Yachiyo • Koharu • Suzu • Claudine • Shizuha ēderu wa kono te ni minshū yo sawagu na kuni ga shihai suru senritsu no mesen ga wareware o nerau takara o mamore ima! katachi nai mono ni katachi o tsukuri hito wa arasoi o hajimeta irona kimono ni shikisai o atae hito wa arasoi o hajimeta kachi mo naki sonzai ni inochi o ataeta no wa dare de mo nai watashi na no da ī ya kono basho ni umareta inochi o mitsuketa no wa dare de mo nai watashi na no desu minikusa wa mienai mono o utsukushiku suru hakanasa ga mienai mono o itooshiku suru kie sasenu watashitachi no unubore da toshite mo futashikana masukarēdā dare ni mo watasanu to tsuyokina kao futashikana masukarēdā senbō no manazashi ga sorasanai!

Michiru • Mei Fan • Shiori • Yachiyo • Koharu • Suzu • Claudine • Shizuha Let me have this Edel, Do not fuss, people The state will keep it under control Trembling gazes are Targeting us Let's protect this treasure, now! Making a shape for something shapeless A conflict began to brew Giving a color to something colorless A conflict began to brew The one who gave life To something worthless Was none other than myself No, The one who discovered the life That was born here Was none other than myself Making something beautiful When its ugliness cannot be seen Making something loved When its ephemerality cannot be seen We cannot make it vanish, even if we know It's our own conceit An uncertain masquerader Refusing to hand it over to anyone With strong-willed faces An uncertain masquerader The envious eyes Will not look away!
