... IN HEAVEN...
Lyrics: Sakurai Atsushi
Translation: Lola


I BELIEVE I was lured by your naked white breasts, I felt them throb
The MEMORY of a deep wound and the agile slender fingers of a person I am unable to forget


I WANT! I LOVE YOU IN HEAVEN
Losing sight of anyone and everyone

TELL ME NOW am I wrong? Or are you beside the gods in eternal sleep
SUICIDE, everything is vanishing but I just have to burst through to the brilliance of the other side

I WANT! I KISS YOU IN HEAVEN and soar high as we sway
I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO
My heart
I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY
is torn to pieces
I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO
as we drift apart
I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY
a second time

I WANT! I LOVE YOU IN HEAVEN
Losing sight of anyone and everyone
I WANT! I KISS YOU IN HEAVEN
And soar high as we sway
I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO
My heart
I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY
is torn to pieces
I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO   I CAN'T DO
as we drift apart
I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY   I CAN'T STAY
a second time

CAPSULE TEARS - PLASTIC SYNDROME III
Lyrics: Imai Hisashi
Translation: Lola


Insolent, gaudily decorated memories YOUR LOVE IS NOT CONSISTENT
CAPSULE TEARS
overflowed
Drifting in a sleepless night, I JUST LOST IN YOUR HEART SHAPE
I realized, SHE'S TOY


(DRESS UP HEART)
the nature of sorrow
(DRESS UP HEART) without being able to return
Even dreams transform into ugliness

Distorted, I no longer even see it YOUR LOVE IS NOT CONSISTENT
CAPSULE TEARS
overflowed
Memories unbalanced and broken, I JUST LOST IN YOUR HEART SHAPE
I realized, SHE'S TOY

(DRESS UP HEART) if this is only love
(DRESS UP HEART) a memory of a forgotten art
At least it's the end

Voice failing THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
Appearance concealed THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
Our differences end THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
I will be holding you THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE FOR YOU

(DRESS UP HEART) the nature of sorrow
(DRESS UP HEART) without being able to return
Even dreams transform into ugliness
(DRESS UP HEART) if this is only love
(DRESS UP HEART) a memory of a forgotten art
At least it's the end

Voice failing THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
Appearance concealed THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
Our differences end THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE
I will be holding you THIS IS NO MORE THAN LOVE FOR YOU

WHO BROKE IT

CASTLE IN THE AIR
Lyrics: Imai Hisashi
Translation: Lola


Cut out of the perfectly clear sky
WOO STILL MORE
A SCARECROW covered in fragments of the HEART
WOO C'EST LA VIE*

Often without being able to abandon MY OBJECT in the light
WOO STILL MORE
Weaving a dream with a MOSAIC full of patches
WOO C'EST LA VIE


Get dry, forget time
Close your eyes IN TO SKY
An angel is frightened in the darkness without a flicker of light**

BROKEN BOYS  tired of CLIMAX
WOO STILL MORE

Make a face of understanding to ESCAPE from there
WOO C'EST LA VIE
OLD BOYS
let yourselves drop, shoulders shivering
WOO STILL MORE
While looking with a side glance, again DRAW AN extra SIGH
WOO C'EST LA VIE

Missing each other dream after dream
Waiting impatiently for the WAKING DREAM
Counting the moments engraved FROM NIGHT TO NIGHT

Enveloped and unable to return
Gone far off inside a dream
Shining on a painted castle
Dancing
OH IN THE AIR

Get dry, forget time
Close your eyes IN TO SKY
An angel is frightened in the darkness without a flicker of light

Missing each other dream after dream
Waiting impatiently for the WAKING DREAM
Counting the moments engraved FROM NIGHT TO NIGHT

Enveloped and unable to return
Gone far off inside a dream
Shining on a painted castle
Dancing
OH IN THE AIR

Enveloped and unable to return
Gone far off inside a dream
Shining on a painted castle
Dancing
OH IN THE AIR


Notes: *French for 'That's life'
** the object was omitted so I added 'light' for lucidity.

ORIENTAL LOVE STORY
Lyrics: Sakurai Atsushi
Translation: Lola


We exchange words in passing then get close only to gaze at each other
I won't forget our ROMANCE
We can't even share this dream, instead we only hurt each other
That day was only an illusion


By the shore of a dried up lake you let your hair down just as you are now

Let's embrace in that brief moment when we are dreaming in a light sleep
Ah we never shall again Oh

Like in an old water colour painting, an image of a girl blurred by wet eyes

STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
Your retreating figure
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
The silhouette of your hand waving
STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
It's a little cold
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
As it all runs down my cheek

Like in an old water colour painting, an image of a girl blurred by wet eyes

STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
Your retreating figure
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
The silhouette of your hand waving
STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
It's a little cold
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
As it all runs down my cheek

STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
Even without words
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
What I think of is
STAY WITH ME, YOU CAN'T STAY HERE
The continuation of our dream
STAY WITH ME, I LOVE YOU FOREVER
As it all runs down my cheek...

PHYSICAL NEUROSE
Lyrics: Imai Hisashi
Translation: Lola


Born an angel but by a CATASTROPHE OH OH OH VAMPIRE
When Gregor Samsa is woken from a dream OH OH OH METAMORPHOSE


AH AH FIXER HEAD ACHE, HEAD ACHE

DESPERATE GIRL
Lyrics: Sakurai Atsushi
Translation: Lola


Sky the color of sadness in DERISION, dozing off against the glass window of TWILIGHT
An incessant downpour, OVER NIGHT within the rain
SILENT screaming in pained confusion, field of vision blurred it's only PLEASURE
Raise your voice in a sob OH MAD GIRL


The look in your eyes began to go mad, blood flowing from the MISERY in your eyes

Yes, always dreaming of a DEAD TIME, grasp my hand tightly
As it is now WITHOUT YOU both of us will CRUMBLE DOWN
Insatiable lust for your body MAKES UP  the night full of persuasion* in this LOVE GAME
Before you even know it you've completely changed OH MAD GIRL

The look in your eyes began to go mad, blood flowing from the MISERY in your eyes
From where is this too confusing memory of a strummed MELODY?
ONLY LONELY MY GIRL raising your gaze
Deceiving your heart if it begins to vanish
ONLY LONELY MY GIRL the sleepless night is
Clad in loveliness, it bursts into flames

The look in your eyes began to go mad, blood flowing from the MISERY in your eyes
From where is this too confusing memory of a strummed MELODY?
ONLY LONELY MY GIRL raising your gaze
Deceiving your heart if it begins to vanish
ONLY LONELY MY GIRL the sleepless night is
Clad in loveliness, it bursts into flames

ONLY LONELY MY GIRL raising your gaze
Deceiving your heart if it begins to vanish
ONLY LONELY MY GIRL the sleepless night is
Clad in loveliness, I'M JUST LOVING YOU


Notes: * Literal translation is 'bargaining' or 'haggling' but one does not usually haggle or bargain for love ... so I figured that usually when trying to seduce someone, people use the art of 'persuasion'.

VICTIMS OF LOVE
Lyrics by Sakurai Atsushi
Translation by Lola


Warmth spreads through your skin and you smile even as you freeze in place
The beat of your heart keeps the time as you urge me for a kiss with a sigh

I hear your faint and intermittent gasps

When we embrace I feel your heart flutter, as we seek this momentary comfort
Then in the moment I ease into you, it is desire that emblazons the sea in red

I hear your faint and intermittent gasps
"...don't let go..." you say, petals trembling heatedly

Our fingers entwine, your fingertips against my palely glistening scar
Our tongues tangle, buried deeply in each other's mouths Ah~a so sweet, we're in raptures

I hear your faint and intermittent gasps
"...don't let go..." you say, petals trembling heatedly

Our fingers entwine, your fingertips against my palely glistening scar
Our tongues tangle, buried deeply in each other's mouths Ah~a so sweet, we melt

MEMORIES...
Lyrics: Sakurai Atsushi
Translation: Lola


BEFORE I FLY FAR AWAY
I MUST SAY GOOD-BYE TO YOU
AH... GO TO HEAVEN
I WANT ! HOLD ME STRONGLY
COME ON! JUMP OVER MANY STARS


IN THE SKY
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN HEART FEELING?

Every time I fall in love, everyone is a troubadour* joined in my feelings
Used to being hurt like a plastic doll, I dance in the flames

The melancholy of someone who is too sad and an elusive fragrance at a MASQUERADE

The two of us are sadistic dolls who love the night as we dance dizzily
Soon we burn out and everything turns INTO DARK but I want to believe in this wonder

The melancholy of someone who is too sad and an elusive fragrance at a MASQUERADE
CRY FOR THE MOON its pale glow** is a MARVELOUS curve in the sky
If I keep hanging on the dream continues
And if we should never meet again, I'll bid you farewell before I fly away
My beloved traverses the stars to hold me close

The melancholy of someone who is too sad and an elusive fragrance at a MASQUERADE
CRY FOR THE MOON its pale glow is a MARVELOUS curve in the sky
If I keep hanging on the dream continues
And if we should never meet again, I'll bid you farewell before I fly away
My beloved traverses the stars to hold me close

BEFORE I FLY FAR AWAY
I MUST SAY GOOD-BYE TO YOU
AH... GO TO HEAVEN
I WANT! HOLD ME STRONGLY
COME ON! JUMP OVER MANY STARS

IN THE SKY


Notes: *Troubadours are French traveling minstrels. Well not solely French, I believe Spanish as well from the 11th to 13th centuries. They sang of love and chivalry.
** Literally it's 'the light make up of the moon'.

SEVENTH HEAVEN
Lyrics: Imai Hisashi
Translation: Lola


AH trapped by the midday moon
Just the two of us SILHOUETTO ON SILHOUETTO
AH
stuck in the cool night
The furtive scent of cobalt


Dancing dejectedly, a leaf finds itself in my hand and my dream is mangled by indecision

AH the night you left
You didn't see my hand reach out for you
AH the end engulfed everything
Now a beautiful change begins

The BLUE sky is even dyed in love yet my feelings are just all over the place

LET'S MEET AT SEVENTH HEAVEN

Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before everything is broken by a sudden KISS
Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before the two of us are broken by a sudden KISS

Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before everything is broken by a sudden KISS
Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before the two of us are broken by a sudden KISS
OH

Dancing dejectedly, a leaf finds itself in my hand and my dream is mangled by indecision
The BLUE sky is even dyed in love yet my feelings are just all over the place

Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before everything is broken by a sudden KISS
Just a little WHISPER TO SO FAR AWAY
Before the two of us are broken by a sudden KISS
