Neon Genesis Evangelion OST Lyrics

theme




What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream come true

[Instrumental Intro]

matteireba, yume wa kanau hazu to
tada shinjiteta osanai hi
sora wo nagareru hikari ni negai wo kake
hohoemi nagara ima wo tsumuide-ita

matte-ite mo, yume wa kanawanai to
sou shitta no wa itsu no goro
yasashii hito wa kanashimi bakari seoi
omoide to yuu yami ni umorete yuku

koboreru tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo kizutsukezu ni
ai wo mamorenai no
afureru uso no kakera
kono te ni daita shiawase ni wa
dareka no namida shimite'ru

[Instrumental]

tawamure no nai kokoro dake wo motte
kono sekai e to orita no ni
totta toki kara ushinau koto ni obie
yasuragi sae mo itsuka teki ni mawasu

nijinda tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo hoshigarazu ni
ikite wo yukenai no
yuganda uso no kakera
mabushii asu wo omoi nagara
nemurenu yoru wo kazoeru

koboreru tsumi no nioi
doushite nanimo kizutsukezu ni
ai wo mamorenai no
afureru uso no kakera
kono te ni daita shiawase ni wa
dareka no namida shimite'ru

[Instrumental]

What is the dream? We have the dream now

What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream come true

[Instrumental Intro]

When I was young, I simply believed
that if I waited, my dream would come true.
Making a wish to the light flowing from the sky,
I smiled while weaving the present.

Then I came to realize,
that even if I wait, my dream will not come true.
Kind people are burdened with nothing but sadness,
being hidden/buried in the darkness called memories.

The overflowing smell of sin
Why can't I protect love
without hurting anyone's feelings?
Shards of overflowing lies
Someone's tears are seeping into
the happiness I held in my hands.

[Instrumental]

Although I descended to this world
with nothing but my heart, which is without amusement
from the moment I held it, I'm afraid of losing it.
Even tranquility some day turns to the enemy

The smell of sin that oozed out
Why can't I live my life
without coveting anyone?
Shards of warped lies
While dreaming of a brilliant tomorrow,
I count the sleepless nights.

The overflowing smell of sin
Why can't I protect love
without hurting anyone's feelings?
Shards of overflowing lies
Someone's tears are seeping into
the happiness I held in my hands.

[Instrumental]

What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream...
What is the dream? We have the dream now
What is the dream? We make the dream come true

ただ信じてた幼い日
空を流れる光に願をかけ
微笑みながら いまを紡いでいた

待っていても夢は叶わないと
そう知ったのはいつの頃
優しい人は悲しみばかり背負い
思い出という 闇に埋もれてゆく

こぼれる罪の匂い
どうして 何も傷つくけずに
愛を守れないの
あふれる嘘のかけら
この腕(て)に抱いた幸せには
誰かの涙しみてる

穢(たわむ)れのない心だけを持って
この世界へと降りたのに
奪った瞬間から失うことに怯え
安らぎさえも いつか敵にまわす

にじんだ罪の匂い
どうして 何も欲しがらずに
生きてはゆけないの
ゆがんだ嘘のかけら
まぶしい未来(あす)を想いながら
眠れぬ夜を数える

こぼれる罪の匂い
どうして 何も傷つくけずに
愛を守れないの
あふれる嘘のかけら
この腕(て)に抱いた幸せには
誰かの涙しみてる
