Lyrics
(Chronicle 2nd)
それは...歴史を辿る少女と世界の物語
詠いたい詩があるんだ...辿りたい途があるんだ...
守りたい丘があるんだ...誇りたい薔薇があるんだ...
収めたい戦いがあるんだ...聴かせたい歌があるんだ...
語りたい航海があるんだ...掲げたい右腕があるんだ...
どんな時でもボクらは諦めない 歴史の彼方 遠くて近いソラ
キミとの約束 受け継がれる想い 終わらないボクらの
(「ルキアよ、私は悲しい。
君ならば書の真理が理解できると思っていたのだがねぇ
まぁよい。歴史を変えられると思い上がっているのなら、いつでもかかっておいでなさい。)
(Black Chronicle)
物心ついた時 母は既に居なかった
仄かな哀しみは 優しい子守唄…
生まれて来る前に 父も既に居なかった
確かな憎しみは 激しい恋心…
違う星を抱いて 生まれてきたボクらも
同じソラに抱かれてる それなのに...それなのに…
あの頃ボクらが夢見てた 未来へ駈ける白馬を
追い駈ける影が在ることも 識らなかったボクらを乗せて
疾って往くよ...予言された終焉へと…
(Black Chronicle)

とある
全二十四巻から成る黒い表紙の古書
そこに記されていたのは 有史以来の数多の記録
ある種の整合性を持つ 歴然とした年代記
それを史実と認めるならば
我らの肯定してきた歴史とは何なのだろうか?
書の記述は未来にまで及び 一つの
複数の
その最大の論点は 近い
終焉を迎えるという<史実>…
何処までが味方で何処からが敵だ?
そこを見誤ると歴史に屠られる
各々で勝手に境界を敷いてる
白地図に刻むは争いの軌跡だ
嗚呼...狭い...ここは何て狭い世界だ…
(ジャスティス)
敵は全部殺すんだ
(幸セカイ? 嗚呼...シアワ世界?
死逢ワ世界? ソレデ...幸セカイ?)
けれど味方も敵になるんだ ならば先手打って殺すんだ
(幸セカイ? 嗚呼...シアワ世界?
死遭ワ世界? ホント...幸セカイ?)
しかし敵は無くならないんだ だから怯えながら暮らすんだ
(幸セカイ? 嗚呼...シアワ世界?
死逢ワ世界? ソレデ...幸セカイ?)
されどそれを繰り返すだけだ それが幸せを掴む
(幸セカイ? 嗚呼...シアワ世界? 幸セカを掴ム途ダ…)
間違ってる そんな論理は 間違ってるんだ
この世界を 売ろうとしてる 奴らがいるんだ
気付くべきだ 気付いたなら 戦うべきだ
たった一羽
あの頃ボクらが夢見てた 未来へ託した地図を
描き換える影が在ることも 識らなかったボクらを超えて
疾って往こう...予言にない<ハジマリ>へと…
(Black Chronicle)
物心ついた時 母は既に居なかった...
病死だとボクに告げたのは
孤児であるボクを引き取り養育した組織だった
組織には似たような奴が何人も居た

That is...the story of the world and a girl who traces history
There is a poem I want to recite...there is a path I want to follow...
There is a hill I want to protect...there are roses I want to be proud of...
There is a battle I want to resolve...there is a song I want you to hear...
There is a voyage I want to speak of...there is a right arm I want to lift up...
No matter when, we did not give up. Beyond history, the sky both far yet so near
A promise made with you. Feelings that are passed on. Our never-ending lineage[Chronicle]..
“O <Black God-Child>[Lucia]...I am saddened...!
I thought you could've understood the truth of the book...
But nevermind...if you think you can change history...
Then come at me anytime...!”
<Black Chronicle>
By the time I was aware, my mother was gone
The slight sense of sadness is a gentle lullaby...
“There are similar people everywhere.”
"-our paths seemed like they could go anywhere."
Before I was born, my father was gone as well
The certain sense of hatred is a passionate heart of love...
“There were plenty of similar people.”
“-where do you seek? What do you betray?”
Born whilst embracing different stars, we're now
Embraced by the same sky, yet despite that...
A white horse dashing towards the future we dreamt of back then
Ignorant of the shadow chasing it, we were taken on its back
Dashing towards...the prophesied end...
<Black Chronicle>
<Black Chronicle> Those are books that shouldn't exist
Ancient books with black covers, totaling 24 volumes
That are being kept at a certain Chronicle Worshipping Order[Cult's] facilities
Recorded on those books were numerous accounts from the beginning of history
They all held a certain sense of coherency, and it is evident that they are chronicles
If we are to accept those as historical facts
What does that make of the history we've come to affirm thus far?
The book's accounts even concern the future - one difference[seed] brings several theories[leaves] to budding, blooming debates[flowers] of confusion
The greatest thesis amongst them being the end of this world in the future soon to come
As a <historical fact>...
Where do our comrades begin, where do our enemies end?
One mistake in judgment on that, and you'll be massacred by history
Everyone selfishly draws their own borders
Engraved upon the white map is the trial of conflict
Ah...how narrow...how narrow is this world...!
-Justice
Kill all your enemies. O comrades, you can have a brief moment of reprieve
Are you happy? Ah...a happy world? A world of deathly meetings? Are you...happy with that?
But comrades too can become enemies, so we should strike in advance and kill them
Are you happy? Ah...a happy world? A world of deathly encounters? Are you...really happy?
But enemies won't just disappear, so we live in fear
Are you happy? Ah...a happy world? A world of deathly meetings? Are you...happy with that?
Then it's simply rinse and repeat - that is the way to grasp happiness
Are you happy? Ah...a happy world? The way to grasp happiness
That's wrong! That kind of logic is just wrong!
There are people trying to sell out this world
You should realize that, and once you do, you should fight
Like the white crow that takes the wind of time head-on with just one wing
The map entrusted to the future we dreamt of back then
Though once ignorant of the shadow redrawing it, we now surpass our past selves
Dashing towards...the unprophesied beginning...
<Black Chronicle>
By the time I was aware, my mother wasn't here anymore.
The one who told me that she died from sickness
Was the organization that took me in as an orphan and raised me
There were many similar people in the organization
Eventually, we came to question the organization and fled...
