Black Tar

Hiroyuki Sawano

Not even a distant land
We're stuck on a whole different planet
No peace lookin' at the sky

Trouble's always all around so we stay quick with
The guns and cannons
Standing as long as we can until we get all dolls up

Then call all bets off
We'll blow through your tar
Dealing with lives messed up

On a sea of dark matter
Every minute matters
Living while other lives shatter

Seeing ghosts scatter
As they pour out
We can handle them

It's the tar taking over that came unexpected
Hard tô accept it
Getting marked for death

Seeing friends snatched and darkly possessed

The tar inside stealing the body and breath
Till only a shell is left
Witness tô Hell in the flesh
A fight tô the death
Screaming where's the relief?
Maybe no more sleep

All swallowed in grief
Images start tô stalk like a beast
I hear voices but no one talking tô me

It's like I'm washing away
All my peaceful days
Anyway anyhow
Nothing left of that scene
If you are losing your way
You need some protection
Black tar, it gets you
Where ever you go
They could find you quickly, it's sticky
However you try tô tough it out
You just can't beat them

They said seek tô find the field so we can sharpen skills
But now we can only feel
All the pain of the danger being real
And we may have tô kill
Just tô stay alive
'Cause they've taken away close mates
And we don't know our own fates

We've been tasked tô protect and take on ghosts
But now this black tar is new
And the damage is quick
It moves really fast
Plus it covers everything
This wasn't in the profile

So now we've got tô find a way tô win or we die out
Living life on the run
With a hand on a gun
Where's the exits
We can't go back where we came from
We can't go back where we came from

Get armed, don't look back
Shoot them with your guns
Yes, get up, don't give up
Shoot them
All the power you got

Hello? Is this thing on? Am I all alone?
Is anyone there?
I need a bigger gun Help if you can

Please wake me up
Not tô sound cliche
But this world sucks!

So close it's a voice I'm hearing
Overwhelms me, can't stop bleeding
Show me in the fog
How many times you gotta kill your friends?
How do you feel you gotta shoot their head?
Just like the endless war
War

How do I know?
This goddamn stuff is all around
How can I get out?
This nightmare I've got tô escape
Just screaming
You hear them over and over
You will get running
So we can find the way tô get out

We're stuck on a different planet
A lot more than we can manage
But we gotta keep on standing
We're stuck on a different planet
A lot more than we can manage
But we gotta keep on standing
Just want live in peace yet
Black tar's gonna keep us restless
Running just tô own our own breaths
Just want live in peace yet
Black tar's gonna keep us restless
Running just tô keep our own breaths

People are dripping black tar
It's taken a ship down so far
Don't wanna lose hope
But here we are
Wishing tô see the sunrise
But the Sun doesn't rise in this sky
Black tar covers most eyes
