[subbed] Dir en grey - The Pledge

Notes: 1) 1:09 - “理念 - rinen“ could be interpreted in a few ways. It describes an ideal of how things should be, or a principle, an ideology or even a doctrine. 2) 3:19 - “こみ上げる - komiageru“ describes a welling up of strong emotions or sensations. Generally this is being close to tears or anger. Kyo doesn’t specify which kind of emotion he is referring to, so I kept the translation vague. 3) 3: 38 - The last three sung words in The Pledge are “いない - inai“, which is basically just a negation (something that is “not there“). But as it comes after “dare mo“ which means “anyone“ and only turns into → “no one“ when a negation is added to the sentence, I subtitled those three words as “no one“. I hope, this could clear this up! ~This is my translation/interpretation.
