Nightmare – Raison d’être

I’m big anime fan and to me one of the most important parts of the anime experience is not even the anime itself but the intro and ending music and when I am ratings anime on a scale of one to ten I would give as much as two points for just the intro and ending music alone. Well my current favourite anime Claymore scores very high in the intro category and for the past few weeks the full version of the opening theme by Nightmare called Raison d’être has been a regularly listened by me. I thought I’d share the song, video and lyrics. Enjoy!

Nightmare – Raison d’être

Ah ikutsumono yoru wo koeta
Kootta yume to kieyuku namida
Warm me, warm me, wrap me

Ichido subete wo wasureta hazuna no ni
Hito wo aisenai kono mi ga nikui

Dokomade aruitemo owari ga mienai
Kako no kioku wo michizure ni
Kono mi wa nani iro ni somariyuku no darou
Kotae wo sagashiteiru

Mou modoranai ketsubetsu no hi
Fukaku nezashita kizu wa kienai
Hide it, hide it, hide me

Ryoute ni mochikirenai hodo no hoshikuzu
Hitotsu, mata hitotsu sora ni kaeshite

Yowakute mijimena jibun wa ano koro
Nani mo shirazu ni ikiteita
Soredemo itsudemo asu wo yume mite wa
Yubiori kazoeteita

Ikiru imi nado shiranai mama de ii
Itsuka waraeru hi ga kuru naraba

Ano hi, anata no kotoba hitotsu de
Tsuyoku nareru kigashita yo
nani mo kawaranai de ima no mama de ii

Imademo kokoro no dokoka ni anata ga iru kara
Mayowazu ni aruite ikeru
Owari ga mienakute mo ii to omoeta yo
Tabi yuku etoranje kotae wa shiranakute ii

  1. My favorite is Naruto hands down, before that was dbz but thats done. The intro is great (check the videos on my blog). Bleach is also good but it has fallen off since recently

  2. yes its odd that they use both japanese and english in there songs. Sounds like a elephant man song in reverse (anaconda)

  3. that link doesn’t work -_-

    I have worked hard on the loading time taylor trust me its much better than it was the last time you pointed it out to me, my page is just heavy with all the pics and stuff in posts but trust me the load time has been improved

  4. This page is quite interesting, indeed. I really love Claymore, I’m up to episode 4, where Clare is about to turn into a Yoma
    and Raki saves her. I’m very sad it’s only
    23 episodes 🙁

  5. Yea I’m a big fan of Claymore watched it up to episode 17 on Veoh.com but then veoh stopped broadcasting in Jamaica. O yea I’m from Jamaica and I’m such an anime geek, I like rock music too.The only reason I found this site was because I was looking for the lyrics to Claymores opening and ending song.
