Japanese lyrics / Romaji / English Translation:

五番街を歩いていた一人ぼっちの前夜

震えて送った招待状届いているかな

幼い日の約束は凍りついたままで

少しだけ時を止めてよ

Gobangai wo aruiteita hitoribocchi no zenya

Furuete okutta shoutaijou todoiteiru kana

Osanai hi no yakusoku wa kooritsuita mama de

Sukoshi dake toki wo tomete yo

The previous night spent alone walking on fifth avenue

I wonder if the invitation I sent while trembling has been delivered

The promise from our childhood days remains frozen in place

Just for a little while, please stop time

はね返りの私と世話焼きのあなた

迷子になるとすぐに見つけてくれたね

永遠に続くとそう信じていたけど

変わり行く日々を知る

Hanekaeri no watashi to sewayaki no anata

Maigo ni naru to sugu ni mitsukete kureta ne

Eien ni tsuduku to sou shinjiteita kedo

Kawariyuku hibi wo shiru

The rash me and the meddlesome you

When I got lost, you would soon find me, remember?

I believed this would continue forever

But I come to know of the changing days

“ハンサムな人が好き　お金持ちが好きよ”

建前の嘘は体に悪い　強がり足りなくて

"Handsome na hito ga suki, okanemochi ga suki yo"

Tatemae no uso wa karada ni warui, tsuyogari tarinakute

"I like handsome people, I like rich people you know"

A fronting lie is bad for my health, I'm lacking in my bluff

あなたが笑うだけで　あなたと笑うだけで

他には何もいらなかった

一人では立てなくて　心で笑えなくて

誰といても越えられなかった

あなたのこと忘れてもいいですか？

馬鹿だね　届かないのに

Anata ga warau dake de, anata to warau dake de

Hokani wa nani mo iranakatta

Hitori de wa tatenakute, kokoro de waraenakute

Dare to itemo koerarenakatta

Anata no koto wasuretemo ii desu ka?

Baka da ne, todokanai noni

So long as you laugh, so long as I can laugh with you

I didn't need anything else besides that

I can't stand up by myself, I can't laugh in my heart

Even if I was with someone else, I couldn't overcome it

Would it be alright if I forgot about you?

I'm an idiot, even though it won't reach

晴れ渡った空に祝福の鐘が

裏腹に不安な顔見せてしまうかな

昔と変わらないまんまの姿を見て

胸を撫で下ろしては泣きそうだよ

Harewatatta sora ni shukufuku no kane ga

Urahara ni fuan na kao misete shimau kana

Mukashi to kawaranai manma no sugata wo mite

Mune wo nadeoroshite wa nakisou dayo

Under the cloudless sky with bells of blessing

I wonder if I will end up showing my anxious face underneath

As I watch your figure that has never changed from the past

Breathing a sigh of relief leaves me about to cry

心をずっと騙していた情けなくて弱い私を

死ぬまでどうか許さないでいて

あなたの声が聞こえた気がした“迷子にならないで”

Kokoro wo zutto damashiteita nasakenakute yowai watashi wo

Shinu made dou ka yurusanai de ite

Anata no koe ga kikoeta ki ga shita "Maigo ni naranai de"

The pathetic, weak me who has always been deceiving my own heart

Please, somehow remain unforgiving of me until I die

I had a feeling I heard your voice, "Please don't get lost"

おめでとう　なんて言葉

言わないで　そんな言葉

このまま奪い去ってくれたら

そんな夢みたいなこと　あるわけないのに

Omedetou nante kotoba

Iwanaide sonna kotoba

Kono mama ubaisatte kuretara

Sonna yume mitai na koto aru wake nai noni

Words like "Congratulations"

Please don't say it, those sort of words

If only you'd carry me off like this

But that sort of dream can't possibly happen

あなたが笑うだけで　あなたと笑うだけで

他には何もいらなかった

一人で待ち続けて今すぐに会いたくて

誰といても越えられないんだよ

あなたのこと忘れてもいいですか？

今でも迷子のままで鏡の音が鳴り響いた

Anata ga warau dake de, anata to warau dake de

Hokani wa nani mo iranakatta

Hitori de machitsudukete ima sugu ni aitakute

Dare to itemo koerarenain dayo

Anata no koto wasuretemo ii desu ka?

Ima demo maigo no mama de kane no ne ga narihibiita

So long as you laugh, so long as I could laugh with you

I didn't need anything else besides that

Continuing to wait by myself, I want to meet you right now

I couldn't overcome it even with someone else, you know

Would it be alright if I forgot about you?

"Even now, you are still lost", the sound of bells echoed

JAPANESE LYRICS / ROMAJI / ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

零れた理性ｘ交わされる愛ｘ液れるたび脈を撃つ夜
一度ハマればもう抜け出せない　嗜欲の虜
You never know what’s coming

Koboreta risei kawasareru ai nureru tabi myaku wo utsu yoru
Ichido hamareba mou nukedasenai shiyoku no toriko
You never know what’s coming

My spilt-over reasoning x our exchanges of love x the night that pulsates every time it drips wet
Once you’re obsessed you can no longer quit, a prisoner of greed
You never know what’s coming

The more you want it 一杯（ひとはい）で愛をくれる？
The more you taste it 二杯（ふたはい）でｘｘｘ（たね）をくれる？
ためらうような枷ならここから解除（はず）せ

The more you want it hitohai de ai wo kureru?
The more you taste it futahai de tane wo kureru?
Tamerau you na kase nara koko kara hazuse

The more you want it, will you give me love at the first cup?
The more you taste it, will you give me xxx (your secret) at the second cup?
If you are shackled by hesitation, then let’s unfasten them from here

「もう還さない」
一度でいいから聴かせて　ささやくその歌声で
馬鹿な嘘も　その遊戯（あそび）も　赦してしまうから
もし目が覚醒（さめ）て　この夢から解放（はな）されても
死ぬまで騙してよ　今夜その嘘で眠らせて

“Mou kaesanai”
Ichido de ii kara kikasete sasayaku sono utagoe de
Baka na uso mo sono asobi mo yurushite shimau kara
Moshi me ga samete kono yume kara hanasaretemo
Shinu made damashite yo konya sono uso de nemurasete

“I won’t let you return”
Once is fine so let me hear it, your whispers in that singing voice
Because I’ll end up forgiving your ridiculous lies and playing around
Even if my eyes are opened and I am released from this dream
Deceive me until my death, put me to sleep with those lies tonight

果天（はて）る寸前ｘ戯れる陰ｘ唇で焦らす感触
荒れた吐息で淫乱（みだら）に開く　至極の扉
You’ve never seen this before

Hateru sunzen tawamureru kage kuchibiru de jirasu kanshoku
Areta toiki de midara ni hiraku shigoku no tobira
You’ve never seen this before

On the brink of climax x Your flirting shadow x The sensation of your lips that tease me
With rough sighs, it opens lewdly, the gates to the peak
You’ve never seen this before

The more you want it あの花（こ）より愛をあげる！
The more you need it その花（こ）よりｘｘｘ（アレ）をあげる！
与えれば与えるほど醜悪（みにく）く堕ちる

The more you want it ano ko yori ai wo ageru!
The more you need it sono ko yori are wo ageru!
Ataereba ataeru hodo minikuku ochiru

The more you want it, I’ll give you more love than to this flower (girl)!
The more you need it, I’ll give you more xxx (that) than to that flower (girl)!
The more I give, the more unsightly I’ll fall

「もう離さない」
今だけは華麗に咲かせて　貴方が愛撫（ふれ）るくらいに
明ける朝も　巡る未来（あす）も　すべていらないわ
もう枯れ果てて濡れることも出来ないけど
最期は愛してよ……なんてその愛で眠らせて

“Mou hanasanai”
Ima dake wa karei ni sakasete anata ga fureru kurai ni
Akeru asa mo meguru asu mo subete iranai wa
Mou karehatete afureru koto mo dekinai kedo
Saiki wa aishite yo…… nante sono ai de nemurasete

“I won’t let you go anymore”
Make me blossom in splendor for only this moment, to the point where you’ll even feel me
Both the breaking morning and the circling future, I don’t need any of it
I’ve withered so completely that I can no longer even make love but
I’ll love you until my last breath……. put me to sleep with a joke like that

ハジメて感じる世界がその頂上（さき）にある

Hajimete kanjiru sekai ga sono koro saki ni aru

The world I’ll experience for the first time is beyond that peak

もしこの夢が泡沫のように消えても貴方が忘却（わす）れぬように
細い首に口唇（くち）で遺す　紅い夢の跡
さあ夜が明け貴方といたこの時間は　迷宮か楽園か？
今は何も知らずに眠らせて……

Moshi kono yume ga utakata no you ni kietemo anata ga wasurenu you ni
Hosoi kubi ni kuchi de nokosu akai yume no ato
Saa yoru ga ake anata to ita kono jikan wa meikyuu ka rakuen ka?
Ima wa nani mo shirazu ni nemurasete……

Even if this dream disappears like a foam bubble, I pray that I won’t forget you
With my lips, I will leave evidence of this red dream on your thin fingers
Now dawn breaks, was my time with you a labyrinth or paradise?
Put me to sleep now without knowing anything……

――もう還れない。
一度でいいから聴かせて　ささやくその歌声で
馬鹿な嘘も　その遊戯（あそび）も　赦してしまうから
もし目が覚醒（さめ）て　この夢から解放（はな）されても
「死ぬまで愛してる」
今夜その嘘で眠らせて

－Mou kaerenai.
Ichido de ii kara kikasete sasayaku sono utagoe de
Baka na uso mo sono asobi mo yurushite shimau kara
Moshi me ga samete kono yume kara hanasaretemo
“Shinu made aishiteru”
Konya sono uso de nemurasete

－ I can no longer return.
Once is fine so let me hear it, your whispers in that singing voice
Because I’ll end up forgiving both the ridiculous lies and playing around
Even if my eyes are opened and I am released from this dream
“I will love you until I die”
Put me to sleep with that lie tonight

Translator’s Note:
*As seen in the many parentheses scattered through the lyrics, there are multiple words that are written but are pronounced differently in the song (the parentheses contains the actual words sung). Most of these terms are synonymous to each other, with the written lyrics having more profound meaning and implications, but I have included translations for those that are not in parentheses. I have also provided Japanese lyrics for the post this time, as the romaji alone would not give sufficient explanation for the differences between the spoken and meant terms.

This is the title song for luz’s 2nd album, and although I’ve translated two of his songs before this, his lyrics never cease to leave me shriveling in embarrassment. While explicit, “Labyrinth” is a sensual track with a bitter tinge, and I hope you enjoyed this translation (*^^*)

ROMAJI / ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Tomo ni ita hibi ga atarimae sugite
Konna genjitsu ga sukoshi iya ni natta
Boku no sei nano ka kimi no sei nano ka
Kotae wa doko ni mo nai ki ga shiteita

Our days spent together were too taken for granted
That I’ve become a little fed up with this reality
Was it my fault or your fault
I had a feeling the answer would be nowhere to be found

Egao de suki da to iu kimi wa
Itsudemo boku ni nanika wo kakushiteite
Hontou wa dare demo yokatta to
Kiduite shimatteita

The you who said you liked my smile
Had been hiding something from me all the time
The truth was that anyone would have been fine
I had realized that

I wanna stay with you
Todokanai koe wo karashite kimi ni okuru kotoba
Dakishimeru no ga tsurai dake nara
Uso wo tsuku no wa owari ni shiyou
Kokoro no oku ni sutete shimae

I wanna stay with you
The words that I wither my unreaching voice to give you
If embracing me is only painful
Let’s bring an end to your lying
Throw it all away into the depths of your heart

Tsumetai taido de tsukihanashita no wa
Dekireba kimi kara kiratte hoshikatta

The reason why I had pushed you away with a cold attitude
Was because I wanted you to hate me, if at all possible

Dore dake namida wo narabetemo
Kimi ni tsutaetai omoi nado mou nai yo
Boku ja nai dareka wo miteiru to
Kiduite shimatteita

No matter how many tears I align together
I no longer have thoughts I want to convey to you
The fact is that you’re watching someone that’s not me
I had realized that

I gotta say goodbye
Ano hi no kimi wa nido to kaette konain dane
Sorenara konna kudaranai koi wa
Subete konya de owari ni shiyou
Yasashisa nante sutete shimae

I gotta say goodbye
The you from that day will never come home again, will it
If that’s the case, for this worthless love
Let’s put an end to everything tonight
Throw away your unneeded kindness

“Aishiteru” tte kotoba no imi wa
Dare ni mo rikai dekinai no deshou
Shiawase nante kitai suru hodo
Kirei na mono janai sa

The meaning of the words “I love you”
Is probably not understood by anyone
I’m not something so beautiful as to
Expect happiness from

Bokura wa nani wo machigaeta darou
Boku wa dou sureba yokatta no darou
Nee, kimi no kuchi kara oshiete kureyo
Kieyuku mae ni…

I wonder what we had done wrong
I wonder what we should have done instead
Hey, please tell me why from your own mouth
Before we disappear…

I wanna stay with you
Todokanai koe wo karashite kimi ni okuru kotoba
Dakishimeru no ga tsurai dake nara
Uso wo tsuku no wa owari ni shiyou
Ketsumatsu nante konna mono nan darou

I wanna stay with you
The words that I wither my unreaching voice to give you
If embracing me is only painful
Let’s bring an end to your lying
A conclusion is probably nothing more than this

JAPANESE LYRICS / ROMAJI / ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

辻褄合わせに僕は呼吸を止めた
人生というこの監獄が
捻じ曲がったボクを作っていく

Tsujitsuma awase ni boku wa kokyuu wo tometa
Jinsei to iu kono kangoku ga
Nejimagatta boku wo tsukutte iku

Matching up these fabricated realities, I held my breath
This prison we call life
Continues to create a twisted me

アイツに亡き者にされ詩を書いていた
言葉を奪い取られ
笑えなくなったんだ

Aitsu ni nakimono ni sare uta wo kaite ita
Kotoba wo ubaitorare
Waraenakunattanda

Deemed deceased by him, I write a poem
But with my words snatched away
I’ve become unable to laugh

ピースの足りないパズルみたい
思い出せなくなって
怖いな　君を知らぬ間に
殺しちゃったよ

Piece no tarinai puzzle mitai
Omoidasenaku natte
Kowai na kimi wo shiranu ma ni
Koroshichatta yo

A puzzle that seems to have missing pieces
I’ve become unable to recall my memories
It’s scary; before I had even known you
I had already killed you, you know

いっそ　何もかも　消えてしまえ
その指でボクを突いてくれ
こんな世界の色に　染まってしまうというなら

Isso nani mo kamo kiete shimae
Sono yubi de boku wo tsuite kure
Konna sekai no iro ni somatte shimau to iu nara

Let anything and everything fully disappear now
And please pierce through me with that finger
If it means that I must be dyed into the color of this world

貴方が嫌い？ボクらも嫌いさ
もう放っておいてよ
さよならしよう
グッバイ　アンダークラス

Anata ga kirai? Bokura mo kirai sa
Mou hottoite yo
Sayonara shiyou
Goodbye underclass

You hate it? We hate it too
Just leave me alone already
Let’s bid our farewells
Goodbye, underclass 

「人」という文字が互いを支え合うのなら
自分も信じられない僕は
何に縋りゃいいんだよ

“Hito” to iu moji ga tagai wo sasaeau no nara
Jibun mo shinjirarenai boku wa
Nani ni sugarya iin dayo

If the character “human” means to support each other
What is the me who cannot even believe in myself
Supposed to cling onto?

何より大事なものが此処にあったような
ああ　きっと知らないほうがいい
そんなもんわかっているさ

Nani yori daiji na mono ga koko ni atta you na
Aa kitto shiranai hou ga ii
Sonna mon wakatteiru sa

It feels as if something more important than all else exists here
Aah, but it would definitely be better if I did not know
I’m well aware of such a fact

救えない 　
今気付いたよ
見惚れていたのはスクリーンの中

Sukuenai
Ima kiduita yo
Mihoreteita no wa screen no naka

I can’t be saved
I’ve realized now
What I had been fascinated with was the inside of a (computer) screen

明日も見えずに気が振れて
ガソリン撒いて
誰もが首を絞めつけて
笑ってるんだろう

Asu mo miezu ni ki ga furete
Gasoline maite
Dare mo ga kubi wo shimetsukete
Waratterun darou

Unable to see even tomorrow, I lose my mind
And sprinkle gasoline all over
Everyone begins strangling my neck
Probably laughing as they do

いっそ　何もかも消えてしまえ
全てが狂った世界だ
こんな排気ガスに塗れるのは厭だよ

Isso nani mo kamo kiete shimae
Subete ga kurutta sekai da
Konna haiki gas ni mamireru no wa iya dayo

Let anything and everything fully disappear now
Everything is part of this chaotic world
But I refuse to be smeared with these exhaust fumes

貴方が嫌い？ボクらも嫌いさ
もう放っておいてよ
忌々しいこの手錠を
外してしまえたら

Anata ga kirai? Bokura mo kirai sa
Mou hottoite yo
Imaimashii kono tejou wo
Hazushite shimaetara

You hate it? We hate it too
Just leave me alone already
Once I unfasten
These hateful manacles

ねえ　アンダークラス

Nee underclass

Hey, underclass

Thank you for reading! Mafumafu has mentioned before that this particular song was like an emotional outlet for him, so I was (& still am) extremely nervous about translating it into English due to my lack of eloquent wording ><;; Regardless, I truly enjoyed closely reading the lyrics to this track because many of the dark feelings resonate with my own experiences.

Even though my phrasing may not be the best, I hope some of the thoughts and feelings that Mafumafu put into “Berserk” can be delivered to you!

MimimemeMIMI & Mafumafu's Collaboration Song "Relativity Replica" Included in New Single, Tie-Up with Game App

Jumping out into the scene, a new release born from the “vocally resembling” duo

It has been decided that the new song “Soutaisei Replica (Relativity Replica)” in MimimemeMIMI's next single “Tentekomai (Bustling with Activity)” will be a collaboration with Mafumafu, a music creator working in the Nico Nico Douga net scene.

As the duo of MimimemeMIMI & Mafumafu has become a hot topic online for having similar voices and Mafumafu has further prompted the comparison by actually covering MimimemeMIMI's “Sayonara Usotsuki” on Nico Nico Douga, the events have led to this time's collaboration.

With lyrics by MimimemeMIMI, “Soutaisei Replica (Relativity Replica)” is a joint work between her and Mafumafu, and Mafumafu has been given charge for the song composition and arrangement. It is a rock number filled with a sprinting feeling, and Mafumafu also participates as a vocal. “Soutaisei Replica (Relativity Replica)”'s feature point is the sounds and melodies born from Mafumafu, who has received high ratings not only as a vocalist but also as a creator, and it will be included in the release of the new single “Tentekomai (Bustling with Activity)” on November 17th, Tuesday.

This “Soutaisei Replica (Relativity Replica)” has been confirmed as the theme song of the game application “LAST OF TITAN”, and the release of “[Amazon.co.jp Limited Edition] Tentekomai (CD+DVD) D Version” will include a limited edition “LAST OF TITAN” 2-piece sticker set (Includes 1 sticker with MimimemeMIMI's & Mafumafu's handwritten autograph each) on Amazon.co.jp. Through the public release of game application “LAST OF TITAN”'s promotion video today on October 9th, you will be able to hear “Soutaisei Replica” so please check it out as quickly as you can.

MimimemeMIMI's Comment

From the time since I first heard Mafumafu-san's voice, I had been thinking that I want to sing together with him someday, so I'm happy that this sort of collaboration could be realized. As a tie-up with the (“LAST OF TITAN”) game, the lyrics are filled with thoughts of questioning one another's meaning of life while still continuing to vigorously fight onwards. Another new face of MimimemeMIMI has come out, and as it is a composition filled with rushing feelings, I hope to be able to let everyone listen to it live soon.

Mafumafu Comment's

Starting from the topic of “our voices sound similar”, I continued on with rapid strides to collaborate with head illustrator Chamooi-san, and then to collaborate for this time's music track. Instead of feeling uncertainty or anxiety, there was an infinitely multiplying level of comfort I felt for the unsociable me to be given the opportunity to write a track for MimimemeMIMI-san and the game. Since there is no guarantee that any of our eyes reflect life in the same way given the differences in what we hold in our hearts, I thought of what exactly it meant to write a song meant for MimimemeMIMI's position, my position, and the game. I believe that it'd be nice if this is reflected to the listeners through my music framework and composition.

JAPANESE LYRICS / ROMAJI / ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

jouya no shita tomoru ROUSOKU
SOODA no umi to koori no mi to FORENOWAARU
AACHI no ue hibiita TENOORU
futari de yubisashita
natsu no daisankaku

Under a night like any other, lit by a candle’s glow
A sea of soda, the fruit within the ice, and foret noire
Above the arch, tenor resounding
As we both point at
The Summer Triangle

namida wo nondara
MAKUSUWEERU souzou de DIBEETO shite
kyou ga (owaru) mae ni (mae ni)
tameiki goto seiza ni nutteikou

If you swallow your tears
While debating Maxwell’s equations in your imagination
Before (before) Today (ends)
Let’s weave through the constellations together with each breath

sekai, shiiteki ai wo utau
doredake kyou wo suteta tte
tsumari dareka ga nozonde egaita kinou darou

The world, sings songs of love as it pleases
No matter how many todays we have thrown away
It only means that the yesterdays we have drawn were for someone else’s desires

nee, asu wo negacchainakutatte
BOKURA otona ni narunda yo
nante SEKAI SHIKKU kana
NEEMURESU shounen shoujo

Hey, even if we don’t long for tomorrow
We will have to become adults, you know
How sick of the world are we
Nameless young boys and girls

nee onegai furimukanaide
kono kizu wa kimi ni mo misetaku nakattanda

Hey, I beg of you, please don’t turn around
I didn’t want to show this wound to even you

dare mo inai komichi wo erande
utsumuite sagasunda
natsu no daisankaku

Choosing a path with no one around,
Looking down, I’ll keep searching for
The Summer Triangle

migi mo hidari mo minarenai FURI shiteiru dake
kitto wakaritaku mo nai koto bakari da
ryoume wo SHATTO shite

I’m only pretending that I’m unaccustomed to seeing it in neither the left nor the right
It’s surely filled with things that I wouldn’t want to understand
So I shut both of my eyes

annani aishiteita mon mo
mikka nemutte shimaeba
doko ni aru no ka ibasho mo
shirazu ni yume wo miru

The things that we loved so much
If we sleep for 3 days
We’ll dream without knowing
Where they are or where we are

nee wasurareta shunkan ni
BOKURA doko e iku no darou
zutto koko ni itai na
shoukisa shounen shoujo

Hey, in those forgotten moments
Where do you think we’ll go?
I want to stay here forever
Young boys and girls, with true hearts

“Konnani sora ga kirei no wa”
“Kitto takusan suteta kara”
“Sou dato shitara”
“Boku wa koko ni iru no wa”

「The reason the sky is this pretty」
「Is surely because many things were tossed aside」
「If that’s the case」
「The the reason I’m here is」

aa sekai, shiiteki ai wo utau
subete ga kiete shimatta tte
BOKU wa nan no tame
kokyuu wo sagashiteiru no darou

Ah the world, sings songs of love as it pleases
If everything is going to disappear,
For what reason am I
Searching for my breath?

nee dare mo nozonjainakutatte
BOKURA otona ni narunda yo
nante SEKAI SHIKKU kana
NEEMURESU shounen shoujo

Hey, even if nobody desires it
We will all have to become adults
How sick of the world are we
Nameless young boys and girls

yozora ga naite te wo furu you ni ochiteiku
ryoume wo ushinatte made etan da
mienai mama de ii
ima da nakidasu you na kokoro demo
zongai HAROO GUBBAI oyasumi

The night sky falls, as if crying and waving good bye
I’ll continue to strive for it until I lose both eyes
It’s fine even if we can’t see each other
It’s the end, even while my heart seems like it’ll burst into tears
Beyond hello, goodbye and good night

ROMAJI / ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Agari sagari
Hakuchuumu ni ki ga fureru
Sono subete wo daresore ga ai to yonda

Going up, going down
I’m losing my mind to my daydreams
All of that in its entirety, a certain someone had called it love

Shiranai koe ga kimi no mimi wo yogosu kara
Shinzou no soba chikuri
Toge ga sasaru you da

Because a stranger’s voice dirties your ear
I feel a prick close to my heart
It’s as if I have been stabbed by a thorn

Dareka ni jama sarenai you ni
Kagi wa kakete okou

In order to prevent anyone from hindering us
I will place a lock on you*

Aisuru toka aisareru toka
Boku ni wa sukoshi omosugita kara
Kono ryoute ni kimi no ashita wo
Tojikometakute kubi wo tsukanda

Things like loving, things like being loved
They were a little too heavy for me
With these two hands, I want to lock up your tomorrow
And so I seized your neck

Yasashii hito wo shiritakute mesu wo ireta
Kimi no koto wo shiritakute mesu wo ireta
Hakui wo kita daresore ga “boku” wo najiru
Ii ko nanoni nigai okusuri wa iya da yo

Wanting to know about kind people, I inserted a scalpel in
Wanting to know about you, I inserted a scalpel in
A certain someone in a doctor’s white coat rebukes “me”
Even though I’m a good kid, I don’t want any bitter medicine

“Anata no sekai wa konna ni kowareteitan dayo”
“Your world was this broken, you know”

Uso ja nai sa uso ja nai no sa
Onnaji keshiki wo miteitakute
Kimi no migime boku no hidarime
Torikaeowaru made soba ni ite

It isn’t a lie, it isn’t a lie at all
I’ve been longing to see the same landscape as you
Your right eye and my left eye
Until we complete the exchange, stay by my side

Iyagaru koe kimi no nakigoe
Atsumete tsunaide mimi wo fusagu
“Boku” igai ni kikarenai you ni
Kimi no kuchibiru ni kagi wo kaketa

An unwilling voice, your crying voice
I collect it, connect it, and cover my ears
In order for you to not be heard by anyone but “me”
I placed a lock on your lips*

Agari sagari
Hakuchuumu ni ki ga fureru
Sono subete wo boku wa mata ai to yonda

Going up, going down
I’m losing my mind to my daydreams
All of that in its entirety, I called it love again

Translator’s Note:
*The Japanese lyrics 鍵をかけた literally translates to placing a key (on your heart). This implies a slightly different meaning from the English equivalent of “placing a lock” in that while a lock only restrains the target from general access and may have multiple keys created, “placing a key” means that not only is there a lock, but the narrator is the only entity with the key to access the target.

Thank you for reading! 

”Ai no Sample" is Mafumafu’s most yandere song so far, especially as it includes quite a few of the “yandere fantasies” Mafumafu has tweeted about in the past (e.g. exchanging eyes with his lover, locking his lover away from others) www. 

Even though the song sounds so cute upon first listen, the moment I started focusing the lyrics, it transformed into a much more sinister track. In my opinion, “Ai no Sample” is the true definition of “insanely cute”.
