[TOMT] Dir En Grey Song, 2010s

[TOMT] [VISUAL KEI] [2010s]
I’m searching for a song by Dir En Grey that I haven’t been able to find again on youtube- I watched the video a bunch of times in the early 2010s, probably 2013-2014. I can remember a couple of details about the song, and two frames from the video. The track itself had a fairly somber intro consisting of plucked strings, before a down tempo, doomy chorus hit. The title consisted (I think) of four kanji, probably with a single kana in there somewhere, because it appeared to be a phrase- my Japanese skills were decent at the time but my kanji repertoire was restricted to JLPT N5/N4 frequency lists lol. The frames I recall clearly from the video were several morbid and disturbing children’s drawings, and one very short clip of an ICBM/missile being launched right as the main riff/chorus kicked in. I think these stand out to me because I remember being impressed by the video’s impactful construction (if that makes sense??), and at the time I had the impression that the song was expressing some kind of anti nuclear/anti war message- I can’t confirm this suspicion though, as I never looked up the lyrics. Any Vkei/Dir En Grey fans who can help me out? Thank you!
