Here's a translation. I get a "field too long" if I just try to dump it, so bear with me.

~ 1 ~
In the darkness, completely coated
by deep darkness
dances apathy
but I won't follow it's step

My view is veiled and
I can't see my heart
Even if it breaks
I don't care

I don't move, stand still
And wait silently
But it carries me away
Because the cracks of time rech for me

It doesn't touch me,
I only want to forget all that
I am like I am
And nothing else matters

~ Refrain ~
Am I dreaming a dream?
Am I seeing reality?
My words are not helping,
because I'm not ready yet

And the sadness in,
exhausts me in this time
I'd rather feel nothing
and be freed from the sorrow

I don't understand what you say
It confuses me terribly
I keep my heart hidden
and feelings undiscovered

If I chase my dreams
I'll get tempted again
And so I'll take everything with me
into the deep darkness

Holds someone like me
his future in the hand
Do I belong into this world
or have I not deserved it

Why does my heart heart so much?
Who am I grieving about?
I don't understand myself
Don't see a face in the mirror

So I walk without a goal
Is all this just a game
Blinded by the light
but I can't reach it

Could I be someone else
I wouldn't stay lone
And turn to the shine
It'll coat me in the end

And in the light

And now I'll follow it's step

And wait silently

~ Outro ~

If I take even one step
If I take even one step
I'll destroy what I love
I'll destroy what I love

If I express my grief
If I express my grief
Will my heart be pure again
Dives into white colour

I know nothing about you
I know nothing about me
I don't understand myself
My world has no face

If I open my eyes
Desaster runs it's course
And now I take everything with me
Into the deep darkness

Yeah, just like the Bad Apple dub, it's not only sung very well but also perfectly translated (more or less so because it's based on an English translation).
I usually prefer the native dub in anime or video games and I expected something pretty shitty at first, so I was amazed when I clicked OP's link.
