Behind the shape of things, deep in that phenomena, there appears form
in illusion.
Represent the day dream.
Draw out the side of deep illusionarity that exists
in the depth of things
tangible as a daydream*
Expel the latent, what exists in truth, in essence.
Look to the outside and liberate yourself from the
form of things
Search for the true essence existing behind them
Throw away rigid style. Break the swing.
Break away from formal beauty / Eliminate rhythm
See here the euphony of which you've taken hold
The indicated secret sign will lead to a hidden door
You won't see it with your eyes. Close your lids
while in subconscience halfasleep
Glittering brilliantly blue.
Affected material culture. Reclaim humanity.
A strain poisoned by material civilization
All life reborn
Free of shape, natural moment, describe as dot image.
Not confined by shape, an impression of natural instants,
depicted as in dot form
Seek, feel, throw away rigid style.
Rest, awake, break the balance and swing.
Eliminate rhythm, equilibrium
My broken euphoria is enfolded within ideal
And my wings lose their sparkle
Were I to exist in a cage I’d be rocked by the dreaming
A Realist to disappear with the limits of the world
The Philosophia asleep in the mirror
The fated raison d'etre
**I re-translated the Japanese below the english because
it added things to the lyrics
that could not be said with the limited meter Mana had to work with.
While formatting this I realized that more than half of the stanzas
end in "m", which is unintentional and interesting.
The beginning of the lyrics is a basic definition of metaphysics and then
they get a little more into personal ideology.
So yeah. I find this album interesting and thus am I translating it.
