Lyrics(Romaji): ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Suujuuoku mono kodou no kazu sae
anata ni wa matataki teido no saji na toukyuu
kako ni torawarete mirai wo nageku mo
chiri hitotsu gosan wo yurusanu hitsuzen

"Mugen" ni hirogaru yume mo egaku mirai mo
bokutachi ni yurusareta kyoei no genri
"Yuugen" sore wa futatsu no hari ga shimesu
zankoku na yakujou to sentaku e Hacking to the Gate---

Dakara ima ichibyou goto ni sekaisen wo koete
kimi no sono egao mamoritai no sa
soshite mata kanashimi no nai jikan no RUUPU e to
nomikomarete yuku kodoku no kansokusha

Inochi no shuchou to muimi no shoumei
anata ni wa taikutsu shinogi ni taranu kokkei
shihaisha kidori no oroka na shuzoku wa
unuboreta chisetsu na teiri wo narabeta

"Mugen" to shinjita ai mo sora no kanata mo
bokutachi ni shimesareta kasou no jiyuu
"Yuugen" sore wa mujihi ni toki wo kizami
asu sae mo hitei suru sentaku e Hacking to the Gate---

Ikutsu mono kagayakeru hibi nakama to no yakusoku
nakatta koto ni wa shite wa ikenai
sono tame ni toki wo azamuku nokosareta shikake ni
mou mayoi wa nai kodoku no kansokusha

Dakara ima ichibyou goto ni sekaisen wo koete
kimi no sono egao mamoritai no sa
soshite mata kanashimi no nai jikan no RUUPU e to
nomikomarete yuku kodoku no kansokusha

English Translation: ---------------------------------------------------------------

Even the number of the billions of the heartbeats,
to you, is a trifle no more than a blink of the eye.
Although I'm trapped in the past and lamenting at the future,
I must not allow even a dust-sized miscalculation.

We have been given the theory of the right to brag vainly about
both our "infinitely" expanding dream and our sketched future.
The two hands of the clock point out the "finite" factor.
I head towards a cruel contract and choice, hacking to the gate--

That's why, at this very moment, in the interval of a second,
I wish to cross the world lines and protect your smile.
Then, once again into a time loop devoid of misery,
I will be swallowed as a lonely observer.

Even life's viewpoints and meaningless proofs,
to you, are so laughable that you can't even use them to relieve your boredom.
The foolish people of that race, acting as if they were the rulers of all,
have presented childish theorems that reek of their conceitedness.

We have been shown the freedom to imagine things
such as "infinite" love and what's beyond the sky.
The "finite" is what's mercilessly allowing time to flow on,
as I head towards my choice to deny even tomorrow, hacking to the gate-

I must not pretend that I've never made any promise
with my friends back in those brilliant days.
Therefore, I am a lonely observer with no more doubt
in my remaining tricks that I will use to deceive time.

That's why, at this very moment, in the interval of a second,
I wish to cross the world lines and protect your smile.
Then, once again into a time loop devoid of misery,
I will be swallowed as a lonely observer.
