Lyrics

The lyrics on this page have been translated more idiomatically than literally.

Original Japanese 世界の終わりを 誰も信じない 轟く旋律 サディスティックなメロディー 闇が生まれ 闇が巣食い 闇が征服する 絶望がはびこる世界を 狂気の愛で満たせ Before time began, there was the All spark Like all great power, someone wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 今こそ蘇れ 血塗られた 罪と呼ばれた欲望よ PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 永遠の命を その手に掴め いま 心の影に 誰も気付かない 心の叫びは 誰にも聞こえない 虚言にまみれ 虚言を操り 虚言がまかり通る 偽善者だらけの世の中を 腐敗の夢で満たせ And the All spark was lost to the far reaches to the space Searching for every star, every world, Drew us to an unknown planet called… PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 今こそ覚醒を 仕組まれた 悪にうごめく本能よ PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 運命に従い 賛美の歌を 聴け Before time began, there was the All spark Like all great power, someone wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 今こそ蘇れ 血塗られた 罪と呼ばれた欲望よ PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON 永遠の命を その手に掴め いま

And so began the war. PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Ima koso yomigaere chi'nurareta tsumi to yobareta yokubō yo PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Eien no inochi o sono te ni tsukame ima

English translation Nobody believes in the end of the world A sadistic melody thunders through the air Darkness was born, Darkness haunts, and Darkness rules Fill this world rampant with despair with an insane love Before time began, there was the All spark Like all great power, someone wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Now is the time to resurrect, a bloody desire called sin PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Grasp eternal life with those hands Nobody notices the darkness in hearts Nobody can hear the screams from the heart Covered in lies, controlling lies, and lies are allowed Fill this society filled with hypocrites with rotten dreams And the All spark was lost to the far reaches to the space Searching for every star, every world, Drew us to an unknown planet called… PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Now is the time for an instinct writhing of evil set up to awaken PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Follow destiny and listen to the songs of praise Before time began, there was the All spark Like all great power, someone wanted it for good, others for evil. And so began the war. PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Now is the time to resurrect, a bloody desire called sin PRAISE BE TO DECEPTICON Grasp eternal life with those hands

Notes

• The spoken parts of the song (presented here in italics) are paraphrased from the opening monologue of the 2007 live-action movie.
• While the printed lyrics include the line "someone wanted it for good, others for evil", the song as sung renders this as the more sensible "Some wanted it for good, others for evil".
• This song (along with several other Transformers-related media) was used in the video game Final Combat without authorization.
