特に才能もないし toku ni sainou mo nai shi It's not like I have any special talent
何を掴み取れと言うんだろうな nani wo tsukami tore to iun darou na So I wonder what I’m being asked to grab
虚しく宙を掻いて munashiku chuu wo kaite My days are spent grasping at air
空回りの日々だけどまあいっか karamawari no hibi dakedo maa ikka And spinning my wheels—but oh well

Ah! It's Her Wish Ah! It’s Her Wish Ah! It's Her Wish
Crazy For Me Crazy For Me Crazy For Me
息を吸い込んでいざ参りましょう iki wo suikonde iza mairimashou Let's take a deep breath and get in position
Ah! It's Her Wish Ah! It’s Her Wish Ah! It's Her Wish
Quest For Me Undying Quest For Me Undying Quest For Me Undying
そこはステージで命賭し soko wa suteeji de inochi toshi That’s the stage I’ll bet my life on

きみを忘れてもぼくは連れてくよ kimi wo wasurete mo boku wa tsureteku yo Even if I forget you, I’ll take you along
孤独の果て 虚数の海 kodoku no hate kyosuu no umi The ends of loneliness, the sea of imaginary numbers
時が止まってしまっても toki ga tomatteshimatte mo Even if time itself stops
待つのは天国? matsu no wa tengoku? Is what awaits us heaven?
それとも地獄かな? soretomo jigoku kana? Or is it hell?
この心臓を捧げてもいい kono shinzou wo sasagete mo ii I don't mind offering up this heart of mine
きみと燃え尽きるのなら kimi to moetsukiru no nara If I can burn up with you
芽吹く生命に祝福あげる mebuku inochi ni shukufuku ageru I offer my blessings to budding life

頼りない足取りで tayorinai ashidori de How far am I being asked to walk
どこまで突き進めと言うんだろ doko made tsukisusume to iun daro With these unsteady steps?
ぐるぐる同じところ guruguru onaji tokoro I keep going in circles
回って気づいたらまた朝だ mawatte kizuitara mata asa da And before I know it, it’s morning again

Ah! You're Dying Ah! You’re Dying Ah! You're Dying
Crazy For Me Crazy For Me Crazy For Me
風邪を引かぬように温かくします kaze wo hikanu youni atatakaku shimasu Let's keep warm to not catch a cold
Ah! You're Dying Ah! You’re Dying Ah! You're Dying
Quest For Me Undone Quest For Me Undone Quest For Me Undone
張り詰めた雲からは雨が haritsumeta kumo kara wa ame ga Rain falls from the heavy clouds

きみが笑うならぼくも笑うだろう kimi ga warau nara boku mo warau darou If you smile, won’t I smile as well?
終わりのない冬が来ても owari no nai fuyu ga kite mo Even if we face an endless winter
生き残ってみせようか ikinokotte miseyou ka Why don’t we try making it out alive?
神に見捨てられ業火に焼かれて kami ni misuterare gouka ni yakarete Abandoned by God and burned by hellfire
それでもいいさ 何度だって soredemo iisa nando datte Even then, I don’t mind
きみを迎えにいくから kimi wo mukae ni iku kara I’ll come pick you up no matter how many times it takes
抱えきれないほど花摘んで kakaekirenai hodo hana tsunde With more flowers than my arms can hold

遠い遠い記憶だ tooi tooi kioku da In my distant memories
歌いたかったはずだ utaitakatta hazu da I must have wanted to sing
ああもう忘れそうだ aa mou wasuresou da Ah, I'm about to forget already
でもまだここで脈を打つ demo mada koko de myaku wo utsu But my heart is still beating right here

Ah! ダレシモ Ah! dareshimo Ah! Everyone's
Crazy For Me Crazy For Me Crazy for me
今日の調子は皆さんいかがかな kyou no choushi wa minasan ikaga kana How is everyone doing today?
Ah! ダレシモ Ah! dareshimo Ah! Everyone's
Quest For Me Undying Quest For Me Undying Quest for me undying
あまり無理をせず演{や}りましょう amari muri wo sezu yarimashou Let’s finish them off without pushing ourselves

きみを忘れてもぼくは連れてくよ kimi wo wasurete mo boku wa tsureteku yo Even if I forget you, I’ll take you along
孤独の果て 虚数の海 kodoku no hate kyosuu no umi The ends of loneliness, the sea of imaginary numbers
時が止まってしまっても toki ga tomatteshimatte mo Even if time itself stops
お腹が空いたら何か食べに行こう onaka ga tsuitara nani ka tabe ni ikou If you’re hungry, let’s go grab something to eat
この心臓を捧げてもいい kono shinzou wo sasagete mo ii I don't mind offering up this heart of mine
きみと燃え尽きるのなら kimi to moetsukiru no nara If I can burn up with you

きみが泣くのなら全力で笑わす kimi ga naku no nara zenryoku de warawasu If you cry, I’ll do anything to make you smile
何を言えば伝わるかな nani wo ieba tsutawaru kana What can I say to let you know how I feel?
もどかしいなこの恋は modokashii na kono koi wa This love is so frustrating
悪魔に憑かれて闇に飲まれても akuma ni tsukarete yami ni nomarete mo Even if demons possess me and drown me in darkness
ただ生きるんだ 前を向くんだ tada ikirunda mae wo mukunda I’ll just keep living; I’ll keep facing ahead
それだけが取り柄だから sore dake ga torie dakara ‘Cause that’s the one thing I’m good at

星が瞬く静かに hoshi ga matataku shizuka ni The stars twinkle quietly
語り継がれいつか神話に kataritsugare itsuka shinwa ni Retelling a tale that will one day become a myth
祝福をあげる shukufuku wo ageru I offer it my blessings


Comment from Maeda Jun in the album:

This was the first song that we recorded. Asking XAI-san to sing rock was one of the project's challenges. Until then, she had shown a singing voice that personified "a genius at singing" in EDM songs. As expected, I couldn't provide adequate direction the first time. I forced her to use her chest voice too much and ended up regretting it. With the game still unreleased and no budget left, I asked for another chance, and we re-recorded. This time, I allowed her to sing more freely and added more portions where she could use a falsetto. Suddenly, it got much better. But I felt like I couldn't bring out XAI-san's charm, and I thought that I'd never be able to write such a She is Legend song.
