This is the English Translation to "Lust For Blood"
My uncertain soul melts entirely into oblivion
While I'm puzzled by the visible scars, I stretch out my hand
In a bright white field of vision, at the end, time is uncontrollable
The tears running off won't come back, the promise from that day
No one could stop them, the tears only we could forgive at our parting
The past promise we made to stop the mistakes from repeating over again
I was unfulfilled by the constantly overflowing passions
If only just for a little while..., I want to return to human form
If you're going to erase the pains in my heart, then go right ahead and kill me
Don't look so lonely, at least at the end I want you to smile.
Just for you
(This part is said in a evil voice)
Take another breath
You can't find what's important
Destroy all of the peace
Make the same mistake over again
No one could stop them, the tears only we could forgive at our parting
The past promise we made to stop the mistakes from repeating over again
