エリーゼのために

For Elise

Lyrics by Imai Hisashi
Translation by Lola & w_b


Let me see the dream you've thrown yourself into even more since that happened
The dream of melting clocks wherein you become but a tiny speck

Though we love each other, we feel lonely
And though we are kind to one another
The thing is, that's really not what I want

Just let the notes from your song hit me
I'm sure an intriguing line is always at its base

Though we understand each other and we confide in one another
And though we are kind to one another
The thing is, that's really not what you want

Hurt me as though our wantonness is love
Be wild and relentless like a tempest
Lure me as though you are a flower with the sweetest nectar
I want to surrender to the Devil's night, my love

Though we understand each other and we confide in one another
And though we are kind to one another
Look, the thing is, that's really not what you love (1)

Although we are kind to one another
The thing is, that's really not what I want

Hurt me as though our wantonness is love
Be wild and relentless like a tempest
Lure me as though you are a flower with the sweetest nectar
I want to surrender to the Devil's night, my love


Notes: (1) In the Japanese the negation was omitted but implied by the structure of the sentence. However for it to have the same meaning the negation needed to be included in English. It could also be 'I'm really not what you love'.
(2) A quick note regarding the title, Imai has explained that it was chosen due to his liking the RC Succession song by the same title, not due to Beethoven.

夢見る宇宙

Cosmos Reverie

Lyrics by Sakurai Atsushi
Translation by Lola


The night I was able to meet you, I came to life
Entranced by a cosmos reverie within the Milky Way

Maddening that for a moment and for eternity we...

Endlessly spinning and turning in a waltz of the moonlit night
Won't you dance with me and be entranced by this cosmos reverie?

Such is the sweetness of both joy and sorrow
The two of us cannot return so let us dance

Our fingers seem to touch
But you are a dancing vision
I dream of as I dream of the cosmos and I love...

Maddening that for a moment, for eternity
We cannot return so let us dance

We share an embrace at the very end of our farewell
Then say goodnight when I close my eyes
And as I dream, I'm dreaming of a cosmic love

Our fingers seem to touch
But you are a dancing vision
And as I dream, I'm dreaming of a cosmic love

We share an embrace at the very end of our farewell
Then say goodnight when I close my eyes
And as I dream, I dream of the cosmos and I love...

SANE-type II-
Lyrics by Sakurai Atsushi
Translation by Lola


To the bottom, follow me down.
Carrying the body to my mind.
It's nothing. Going down, going up. I'm free.

Let's sing till we nearly burst
No matter what, for all time

Give me something to believe.
Burning body to my mind.
It's burning. Going down, going up. I fly.

Let's dance till we fall apart
No matter what, for all time

I'm dancing in the hell. Now I'm insane, (but) I must go
I'm singing in the rain. Now I'm insane, (but) I must go

To the bottom, follow me down.
Carrying the body to my mind.
It's nothing. Going down, going up. I'm free.

Let's sing till we nearly burst
No matter what, for all time
Let's dance till we fall apart
No matter what, for all time

I'm dancing in the hell. Now I'm insane, (but) I must go
I'm singing in the rain. Now I'm insane, (but) I must go

Give me something to believe.
Burning body to my mind.
It's burning. Going down, going up. I fly.

Let's sing till we nearly burst
No matter what, for all time
Let's dance till we fall apart
No matter what, for all time

Now I'm insane, (but) I must go when I go.
What's anything...Now I'm sane.
Now I'm insane, (but) I must go when I go.
