Lyrics

No romaji available.
Black books excavated from ancient ruins.

They are the worst books of prophecy that overturn history...No,
That confirm everything about it...

Faded paper. Subdued words.
A table of contents written in an ancient language.
The last page..."The Judge's Arrival"

-Prologue "Festival of the night before the massacre"

Yesterday, lots of fathers died...
Today, lots of mothers died...
Tomorrow, lots of children will die...

Ones who scrambled to get a piece of bread.
Ones who scrambled to get a chair.
Ones who scrambled to get a crown.
Once who scrambled to get a piece of glory.

"Cease their breathing, erase all those who are in the way!"

It's darkness. Deep darkness. The darkness of history. Someone is laughing.
Why are we comrades killing each other...

A beast engraved within the book.
A melody that traces history in accordance to the black order.
Time, without the tiniest bit of deviation,
Merely aims for the last page...
Sliding along its hands...

-The Last Chapter "The ark floating in the sea of end"-

Run, it's coming.
The bells that toll in announcement of the finale, the flood of the end.
Even after consuming many memories and histories,
The beast is still unstoppable...

The world is seeking for Noah...

Our savior was in the ark since the very beginning,
Sneering at a world sinking into darkness
With a black book, he sets up thousands of traps...

Still, we didn't give up
Searching for the true, last page...


~Cover『Black Chronicle』
