Linked Horizon - Guren no Zahyou Lyrics

The Crimson Coordinate

You were ridiculed as a mere huntsman when you are a hungry beast
And you roared "it would be better to die than getting used to it"

The bloodstained corpses pierced your heart with their empty eyes
It's as if they sang "you will regret it if you lose your fangs"

It's just absurd that for such a small victory
A risk so tremendous must be taken

I don't want their deaths to be in vain
Their deadly wishes are not meaningless
As I will not let it end like this
Until they are wiped out from the face of the Earth

Who is the defiled shadow at the end of the twilight?
Is it him or is it his prey?
Arching like a bow, he jumps at his target, Jaeger
His murderous intent piercing through the twilight ―

The crimson coordinate

These pitiful people wander through Paradise
Bearing the loved ones they lost in their heart

Even if you pursue the truth, the twisted shard of glass
Shows a different lie for each pair of eyes that gaze into it

It's just so absurd that, in exchange for the smallest advantages
The world demands too big of a cost

If we just let their deaths be in vain, what follows is endless regret, right?
Let their deadly wishes transcend time and be passed on, again and again
Keep going down that path until the deaths pay off

What is wavering at dusk? Sorrow, or hatred?
To carry a sin without atonement while slaughtering prey is the Will of Attack, Kruger!
Cursed by longing, this unstoppable impulse
Under a different name, would still reach the crimson coordinates

The boy from that day who could do nothing but roar has now taken up the Survey Corps' arms and gained many comrades
The arrow that signals the start of his counterattack will one day pierce the setting sun
Aimed straight at where beginning and end meet; the coordinates!

(In German "Jäger" means "hunter" and "Krieger" means "warrior")
