Hey, I know I am not damesukekun, but from looking at the translation and the original Japanese lyrics, there were some pretty grave misreadings of positive/negative parts: そこに誰の意思もないと, 誰が気付くのか is more so along the lines of 'If there is nobody's will/influence (on the stage), nobody will even notice (the lack of influence/will)' instead of 'Besides, whose purpose isn't also there, and who will notice it?' Taking into the account that nobody's will/influence is on stage, consequently nobody will pay it any mind. When there is a Verb+と it acts as an all-or-nothing conditional.

For example the sentence 入学試験が合格できない気がすると、受けない方がいい roughly translates to 'If you feel like you can't pass the enterance exam, I think it's better that you not take it'.

Also the phrase 出来る限りの唯一を　約束するから　is translated as 'As much as I can, before I promise, this sole thing'. The 出来る限りの唯一を　part is mistranslated, as it is more so along the lines of 'The only (promise) I was able to make' or 'Since (this) is the only promise I can make'.

Some parts are fine, but other's could use some more work.
