1.The dark night of this fleeting world
2.When the spirits gather and dance
3.Human desires—
4.Greedy, dark, ever darker
5.Cowardly by nature
6.Years ago, in a night the same
7.When the youkai swarmed and played
8.A lantern and a blade of remorse—
9.So alike, mistaken for one another
10.Two halves of the same being11.
12.Take a single life and steal it away—
13.No atonement can ever reclaim it
14.So please, whatever you do
15.Cherish each life as precious16.
17.Light a single flame to shine
18.To uncover the hidden mysteries
19.A single feeling, burning bright—
20.An act born of affection21.
22.The sameness of humans and spirits
23.The difference of humans and spirits
24.Greedy yet contemplative
25.Wishing to live on
26.Between madness and fragility27.
28.Take care on the night road29.
30.Tonight—108 worldly desires
31.And a monster’s dance party
32.Tremble, oh tremble—pardon our play
33.All things are transient
34.Our breathing falls out of sync35.
36.Tonight—108 worldly desires
37.And a monster’s dance party
38.Tremble
39.Illuminate the darkness
40.Save your companions
41.The tale of the Hundred Demons’ Night Parade42.
43.The dark night of this fleeting world
44.When the spirits gather and dance
45.Light a single life aflame46.
47.To live by deceiving and breaking your will
48.The heart will never be filled
49.So please, I beg you
50.Let your words be gentle51.
52.Burn a single life to shine
53.I wish to reveal what I am
54.A single flame of love, blazing
55.I want to pour it into the world56.
57.Such selfish thoughts
58.They make my skin crawl
59.Ideals and hopes—
60.Seeking a path to save them from the wound
61.Madness, about to shatter me
62.Grief assaults my mind
63.The place I arrive is a maze
64.Nothing goes as it should65.
66.Take care along your journey67.
68.Tonight—108 worldly desires
69.And a monster’s dance party
70.Let it roar—pardon our play
71.All things are transient
72.My vision begins to blur73.
74.Tonight—108 worldly desires
75.And a monster’s dance party
76.Let it roar
77.Shine with love
78.Save me too
79.Among demons and fiends, bound by order and chaos80.
81.What is kindness?
82.What is love?
83.What does it mean, for you and me, to live?
84.We crouch within our differences
85.Sunlight breaks through
86.Crossing the night
87.If tomorrow comes
88.Surely, it will be something small89.
90.Tonight—108 worldly desires
91.And a monster’s dance party
92.Tremble, oh tremble—pardon our play
93.All things are transient
94.Our breathing falls out of sync95.
96.Tonight—108 worldly desires
97.And a monster’s dance party
98.Tremble
99.Illuminate the dark
100.Think upon life
101.The tale of the Hundred Demons’ Night Parade102.
103.The dark night of this fleeting world
104.When the spirits gather and dance
105.Light a single life aflame
