Empty spaces - what are we living for

We were created to become Alice so the rumur goes

Abandoned places - I guess we know the score

You abandoned us all Father. This much I know

On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for

We each just want your love. Does that mean to become human?

Another hero, another mindless crime

Why is Shinku considered the hero not me

Behind the curtain, in the pantomime

Laplace is this precisely the grand design?

Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore

Shinku doesn't want to fight anymore

The show must go on

But I want to be complete

The show must go on

I must prove I'm not junk

Inside my heart is breaking

He did even complete me

My make-up may be flaking

There is cracks in my back due to my wings

But my smile still stays on

I will not wallow in selfpity

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance

I have the willpower to continue on

Another heartache, another failed romance

I must not give up

On and on, does anybody know what we are living for

Souseiseki has the determination. So must I

I guess I'm learning, I must be warmer now

Each night brings me one step closer to winning

I'll soon be turning, round the corner now

I won't allow myself to falter

Outside the dawn is breaking

Perhaps I do this for Megu as well as myself

But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free

I'm not junk. I won't let that be so.

The show must go on

I even made a temporary alliance with Barasuishou

The show must go on

That failed but I won't let it get me down

Inside my heart is breaking

Would it be easier to give up

My make-up may be flaking

Am I losing faith in myself

But my smile still stays on

I know my only decision. See father at any cost

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies

I remember when I was more innocent and naive

Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die

Back when Shinku seemed like a friend

I can fly - my friends

I'll hold onto my dream

The show must go on

I must see father

The show must go on

I must destroy everyone in my path

I'll face it with a grin

Even it means killing their mediums

I'm never giving in

My desire is stronger than theirs ever oculd be

On - with the show -

Does that seem so wrong

I'll drop the bill, I'll overkill

Regardless I must do this

I have to find the will to carry on

Undomniable will of mine don't falter

On with the -
On with the show -
The show must go on
