Akuma no Ko

Iron bullets are proof of justice
As they pierce through, I get closer to being a hero
If I close my eyes and touch
The same shape, the same warmth of a demon

Am I wrong and he's right?
There was just a wall between us
Don't lament the fate you were born into
We all have freedom

If we had wings like birds
We could go anywhere
But without a place to return to
Surely we can't go anywhere
I don't want to just live

The world is cruel, yet I still love you
No matter what I sacrifice, I will still protect you
Even if it's a mistake, I won't doubt it
Righteousness is believing strongly in yourself

Iron rain scatters in the scene
It looked like a movie on TV
War is such a foolish violence
A story of a distant, unknown country

Then why do I resent him
Unable to hide my dark feelings
I can't even explain the reason
We're just full of contradictions

When these words are translated
The true meaning doesn't come across
Believe by opening your eyes
Only the world you touched
I don't want to just live

The world is cruel, yet I still love you
No matter what I sacrifice, I will still protect you
The shadow of the chosen people, the corpses of what I've discarded
I realized that what's growing inside me is a demon's child
Behind justice and within sacrifice, in the heart is a demon's child

Tetsu no tama ga seigi no shoumei
