[Verse 1]
Under crimson moon
The altar waits
A lord speaks my name
Then seals my fate
Iron binds my hands
The spirits rise
Fire takes my flesh
But not my vow
Ash falls
Night burns
The old world dies
[Chorus]
I WILL NOT FALL
I WILL NOT FADE
Though every memory
Turns to shade
守る
守る
Until the flame is gone
My voice may die
My vow lives on
[Verse 2]
Akiko...
Mother...
Haruto...
Names once warm
Now lost in smoke
My left arm falls
The silence grows
But Yumi stands
Where the shrine light glows
So I take the oath
Into my bones
One arm
One flame
One path alone
[Chorus]
I WILL NOT FALL
I WILL NOT FADE
Though every memory
Turns to shade
守る
守る
Until the flame is gone
My voice may die
My vow lives on
[Bridge]
No mouth to speak
No hand to hold
No face remains
From years ago
But carve his name
Into my chest
HARUTO
Let truth become
My final breath
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[Verse 3]
The frozen path
The ancient stone
A father guards
What he has known
The rift awakens
Darkness calls
I raise my blade
Against it all
I do not need
To know my name
A vow survives
Where memories fade
[Final Chorus]
I WILL NOT FALL
I WILL NOT FADE
Though every memory
Turns to shade
守る
守る
Until the flame is gone
My voice may die
My vow lives on
[CRESCENDO]
Ash to ember
Ember to flame
Even forgotten
I guard his name
NATORU...
The last witness
STANDS.
