Japanese / Kanji Lyrics 歌詞

息をするだけじゃ叶わない
もっと深くまで行く為の
涙と嘆きを下さい


むごたらしいほど奇麗な君の神様は
激しく滅び去る者だけを愛した

Quo Vadis Domine?
その声は祈りと呼びまでも無い
いつか君の願いだけが届くと信じている

張りつめた空の麓へ
僕らは荷物を担いで
逃げるようにつんのめって歩いた

始まりの星は静かに
君の行く先を照らして
蒼ざめた谷底に輝く

Quo Vadis Domine?
慰めをいつか君の手の中に
欲しがる心のままでは
届かない場所にある

諦めず手を伸ばす
欲深い心が
満たされて眠るまで
光に遠い道を

何でも食べたい魂
齧り付いた夢吐き捨て
哀れみを下さいと叫んだ

Quo Vadis Domine?
慰めをいつか君の手の中に
全て燃やし尽くした頃
届くと信じている

Romaji Lyrics

Iki o suru dake ja kanawanai
motto fukaku made iku tame no
namida to nageki o kudasai

mugotarashii hodo kirei na kimi no kamisama wa
hageshiku horobisaru mono dake o aishita

Quo Vadis Domine?
sono koe wa inori to yobi made mo nai
itsuka kimi no negai dake ga todoku to shinjite iru

haritsumeta sora no fumoto e
bokura wa nimotsu o katsuide
nigeru you ni tsunnomette aruita

hajimari no hoshi wa shizuka ni
kimi no ikusaki o terashite
aoizameta tanizoko ni kagayaku

Quo Vadis Domine?
nagusame o itsuka kimi no te no naka ni
hoshigaru kokoro no mama dewa
todokanai basho ni aru

akiramezu te o nobasu
yokufukai kokoro ga
mitasarete nemuru made
hikari ni tooi michi o

nandemo tabetai tamashii
kajiritsuita yume hakisute
awaremi o kudasai to sakenda

Quo Vadis Domine?
nagusame o itsuka kimi no te no naka ni
subete moyashitsukushita koro
todoku to shinjite iru

English Translation Lyrics

It won’t come true just through breathing
Please give me tears and grief
so that I may go deeper

Your god so beautifully brutal
only loved that which perishes violently


Quo Vadis Domine?
That voice cannot be called a prayer
I believe that your wish at least will one day reach

We walked, stumbling forwards,
shouldering our burdens so that we could escape
to foot of the frozen sky

The star of beginnings quietly
shines down on your destination,
glittering in the pale depths of the valley


Quo Vadis Domine?
Someday you will have consolation
It lies in a place unable to be reached
with a heart that continues to desire

You continue to reach out without giving up
Until it sleeps satisfied
the greedy heart
will take the long road to the light

The soul that wants to eat everything
spits out the dreams it has chewed,
crying out for compassion

Quo Vadis Domine?
Someday you will have consolation
Once everything has been consumed
I believe you will reach it


Translator's Note: 'Quo Vadis Domine?' means 'Where are you going, Lord?' in Latin.
