Mirror of Paranoia

回路 -kairo- is such a good circle; I enjoy it pretty much, despite I don’t really talk about it just a few, and sometimes they make so awesome songs. And 556t is an awesome vocalist.

Such a peaceful, relaxing arrangement, that towards the end becomes very powerful. Aside the fact I basically don’t care about Orin (nor about her theme), I believe “bottom” is one of the few “Lullaby of Deserted Hell” I someone like; I bet it’s thanks to 556t for most :’D

Anyway, I don’t have much to say as usual so, enjoy~

Notes

“おやすみ | Good night”; there’s not “my” in the Japanese text, but it fits just too much considering which is the original theme. In my opinion adding it helps to create this “Lullaby” atmosphere, but I blather a lot and it might be just my imagination. I hope you like this choice though~

おやすみ　広がる　赤い　荒野
誰もが　在ることを　忘れて
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
今日も一人

oyasumi hirogaru akai kouya
daremo ga aru koto wo wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
kyou mo hitori

Good night, my boundless, red desert
Everyone will forget about what there’s here
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
I’m alone even today

おやすみ　消えることなき　炎
今では　その熱も　忘れて
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
虚しさを枕に

oyasumi kieru koto naki honoo
ima de wa sono netsu mo wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
munashisa wo makura ni

Good night, my inextinguishable flame
By now, I will have already forgotten that heat
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
On a pillow of emptiness

おやすみ　長すぎた　空虚
昔の　形さえ　忘れて
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
いつも一人

oyasumi nagasugita kuukyo
mukashi no katashi sae wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
itsumo hitori

Good night, my too far away emptiness
I will even forget how you were in the past
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
As always, alone

もう　ただ　ただ　枯れるのを待って

mou tada tada kareru no wo matte

Again, as always, as always, I will wait for it to wither

ああ　ひたすら　空を見つめる子猫

aa hitasura sora wo mitsumeru koneko

Ah, but the kitten is staring only at the sky

おやすみ　霞みゆく　この景色
誰もが在ること　忘れる
救いのない　深い深いそこで
心燃やし尽くす

oyasumi kasumi yuku kono keshiki
daremo ga aru koto wasureru
sukui no nai fukai fukai soko de
kokoro moyashi tsukusu

Good night, my scenery that is getting blurry
Everyone will forget about what there’s here
It won’t help to be deep inside there
My heart has completely burnt

眠りに付く　深い深いそこで
灰のように

nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko de
hai no you ni

I fall asleep, deep inside that place
That looks like ash

おやすみ　消えることなき　炎
今では　その熱も　忘れて
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
虚しさを枕に

oyasumi kieru koto naki honoo
ima de wa sono netsu mo wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
munashisa wo makura ni

Good night, my inextinguishable flame
By now, I will have already forgotten that heat
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
On a pillow of emptiness

おやすみ　長すぎた　空虚
昔の　形さえ　忘れて
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
いつも一人

oyasumi nagasugita kuukyo
mukashi no katashi sae wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
itsumo hitori

Good night, my too far away emptiness
I will even forget how you were in the past
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
As always, alone

もう　ただ　ただ　枯れるのを待って

mou tada tada kareru no wo matte

Again, as always, as always, I will wait for it to wither

ああ　ひたすら　空を見つめる子猫

aa hitasura sora wo mitsumeru koneko

Ah, but the kitten is staring only at the sky

おやすみ　変わらない　この　景色
誰もが　在ることを　忘れて
眠りに付く　深い深い底へ
今日は一人

oyasumi kawaranai kono keshiki
daremo ga aru koto wo wasurete
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
kyou wa hitori

Good night, my unchanged scenery
Everyone will forget about what there’s here
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
I’m alone even today

おやすみ　待ち続けてた　子猫
忘れられた　廃墟の　したで
眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
明日は二人

oyasumi machitsudzuketeta koneko
wasurerareta haikyo no shita de
nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
asu wa futari

Good night, my kitten who kept waiting
Below those ruins that have been forgotten
I fall asleep, deep inside that place
Tomorrow we’ll be together

眠りにつく　深い深いそこへ
明日は二人

nemuri ni tsuku fukai fukai soko e
asu wa futari

I fall asleep, deep inside that place
Tomorrow we’ll be together
