Lyrics Mephisto (From "Oshi no Ko") - English - Mewsic , Jonatan King

Last chance, I'm so hungry for a shot at the top
And my feet start to dance across the night sky, high up above
A boring stance is not enough for me to catch every eye
And to feel their envy tonight

Eventually, all of the sweat and tears are mixed in with blood
But if I only swim in someone's eyes, it won't be enough
Because the stage is calling me and I can never forget
Or move on, it won't let me go
Desperately, I'm clinging on

(I've never seen such a liar)
You must have been born with your soul corrupted
(This lie is love and this lie is a gift to the world)
You must remember who taught you to be like this now

I will risk it all and give my very life to you
All of it to you, aah-ah
After all, you gave me time to
Really choose what I want to, didn't you?
And when I can finally fulfill all of my dreams
When they come to be, aah-ah
I just wish that I could see you
So I will wish upon this star tonight

Is something only really precious if you can't get it back?
Sometimes I wish I never had it, but it's all just an act
'Cause even if it hurts, I know the pain will not go away
So I'll walk into the light
That's dimming day after day

You must have been born with your soul corrupted
(This lie is love and this lie is a gift to the world)
I can't remember the "me" that I should be!

If there was a way that you could come back to this world
Live your life again, aah-ah
I would give my life, my soul
My everything for you today, aah-aah
But I know it's just a dream and
I can't be with you, no matter how much I want to
High above, the star imploding
Is shining brighter than everything

I will risk it all and give my very life to you
All of it to you, aah-ah
After all, you gave me time to
Really choose what I want to, didn't you?
And when I can finally fulfill all of my dreams
When they come to be, aah-ah
I just wish that I could see you
So I will wish upon this star tonight

So, children of the stars, come to me
Close your eyes and you'll dream endlessly
The light inside will never burn away
If you will be the ones shining bright
So, children of the stars, aim up high
Let your hopes and your dreams be your guide
You have to keep your fire burning bright
You can't flicker if you'll be the light
