Japanese text of the lyrics available at Rock Lyric. There is one minor difference between what's sung and what's written there, namely that where the lyrics say 「心の中」(kokoro no uchi) what's actually sung is 「心の中心」(kokoro no chuushin). The meaning doesn't change much; kokoro no uchi would be figuratively "one's mind" whereas kokoro no chuushin would be …

exist†trace—Kuchibiru
You can see the Japanese text of the lyrics on Rock Lyric. The romanization is below, or you can jump to the English translation. I had been translating the relevant miko blogs for each song, but as very few people are seeing this, and I can't be sure the people who have landed on exist†trace …

I might be able to make some good progress in both my Air Moon and exist†trace projects with such a long break from school. So here's one from the latter, keeping on with World Maker. After the Japanese & romaji lyrics is …
exist†trace – Yume ni Kisu wo
I have several notebooks labelled 歌詞ノート, (kashi nooto) "Lyric Notebook," in which I hand-write the lyrics to Japanese songs I like. Perhaps this isn't a popular opinion these days, but I'm a huge proponent of writing in order to learn how to read. It doesn't matter whether you write with a pencil on paper or …
