music: fumi / lyrics: Hime

To think those captives to time
Could be so inhumanly dear to me.
To think myself, as I tumble into self destruction
Could be so inhumanly amusingly strange.

jikan ni torawareta arera ga
konna ni mo hidoku itoshii.

jimetsu e to korogari-ochiru jibun ga
konna ni mo hidoku kawaii

Encircled within a cold wall built from
A collection of beautiful lies
Alone within my secret garden with you
A punishment, with sins, with lies.

kirei na uso de tsukiageta
tsumetai kabe ni kakomarete
watashi no himitsu no oniwa ni ha
anata to, tsumi to, uso to, batsu.

One by one so none remain
It repeats, they mangle up

hitotsu hitotsu, nokosazu ni,
kurikaeshi, kirikizamu.

Aah, all of our kisses,
the promises with which we were tied
Let's put an end to everything
Things covered up to hide.

Aah, and then for all eternity
Within this garden where we've been locked tight
I'll hold you closely forever to me
as you begin to rot away...

Aa, kawashita yakusoku mo
kuchizuke mo
subete ooikakushite shimaimashou

Aa, tozasareta kono niwa de
itsu made mo
kusaru anata idaite eien ne

And then the flowers will come to bloom
From within your rotten insides
And don't you think it'd be lovely
If it came to bear delicious fruit in time?

With a lethal kiss I think I shall
now send you off to sleep.

For eternity...

anata no kusatta karada kara
hana ga saite
oishii mi o tsuketa no nara
donna ni suteki deshou.

chishiryou no kuchizuke de
nemurasete ageru wa

eien ni.

Um...I see influences from "Zankoku na Kami ga Shihai Suru" in this one too...but then I see a lot of things that aren't true sometimes. I think.

"jitsu o tsukeru" is an interesting phrase...there's a saying:

"even the most ugly plant can have beautiful blooms."

There's actually this saying about cherry trees that the blossoms are pink because every cherry tree sprang up and was fed from a dead person's blood. It's the death in beauty, the beauty in death, and the realization that behind every happiness there is fear or pain. At least that's my interpretation.

When I was in high school we had this conversation once which turned to "is beastiality okay?" And my school being what it was, which was weird, one boy naturally raised his hand and replied, "only if they're dead, because in order for it to be okay you need consent or it is just rape, and animals can't talk. But if they're dead animals then it's fine because they're not going to say no regardless." His name was Sam, and he had a deep voice. So for about a year after that people would go around saying,
"I am Saaaammm and I like dead animalssss"

...Every other school has ghosts, strange disappearances, pandas that eat children...and we just had Sam who liked dead animals...I miss high school.

Other than that, I think this is close to the SS ideology in a way, obviously. But it's funny, how I really can't see the other person in this as anything but a man...
