Best Anti-War Song ever! (& GazettE's Saraba lyrics)

And now I'll introduce to you:
The best and most beautiful anti-war song I've ever heard in my entire life!
Those guys are really the best musicans I know! It seems that the guitarist (Uruha) has wrote the riffs of this while he was watching the sunset.
I just love this song... yeah, I know, the audience is a little bit quiet but when you read the lyrics (and especially when you're Japanese) you'll see why.

*Sorry if it's bad English, --> I've found the lyrics on youtube*

The GazettE - Saraba (Farewell)

A city during peace, today is also perfect Japanese weather.
Black airplane smoke, and the endless sounds of the air-raids.
Is Japan's peace over with this?
The radio and tv show all the victims of foreign countries.
Next is myself and a journalist who wouldn't talk.
The hypocrite who changed into a different person,
Decidedly said "war can't be helped".
No matter how much the anti-war voices sound they don't reach him.
Tell me, why do humans fight each other, when we're all the same?

Peace always spoils people, so modern Japan has gone crazy.
The government, police, schools, and families are all hurting each other.
Stop fooling around, please stop it, at this rate Japan will rot away.
Once long ago, people died for the country without any regrets.
Those of you living now, remember that someday.

Farewell those who have fallen for the country
Farewell those who have loved Japan
At this rate, surely no one will change Japan
The Hinomaru (sun's circle) will one day sink thats why I will sing.
AN ANTI WAR SONG
I will sing all together.
Until the day that this world overflows with smiles
AN ANTI WAR SONG
Sound this world.

So that no one hurts each other any more
AN ANTI WAR SONG
I will sing all together.
And for those who sacrificed their bodies too
AN ANTI WAR SONG
Sound this world.
Until the day the world overflows with happiness and smiles

Farewell. Those who have thrown away their lives to protect this country, to protect Japan.
I take pride at being born in that same Japan.
You have taught me with your bodies,
War's meaninglessness, sadness, pain, and death.
I won't forget it for my entire life.
Thank you. Farewell, those who have become the wind.
I will protect the Hinomaru (sun's circle).
Farewell...
