Lyrics
Thanatos...
The broken marionette. The silver carriage.
The hourglass of the cycle of death and rebirth. The coral castle. Thanatos. Thanatos...
Everything is the girl’s fantasies. Nightmares in a sleepless night.
Listening to the whispers of Thanatos in the depths of consciousness. Thanatos...
An incomplete wish. An arbitrarily tilting balance.
The girl’s boundary, wavering between reality and fantasy. Thanatos...
Just like how the irreversible flow of time repeats morning and night
The surface and depth of consciousness interchange their roles vibrantly. Thanatos...
Thanatos...
Reality is simply a scenery that existed there
What reflects fantasies is always my heart. Thanatos...
A twisted mirror. The instinct of death. A spell of dizziness. A roaming impulse.
The masked beast. The girl is within the cage. Thanatos...
I’m not strong enough to live in an instant
But I’m not numb enough to live through eternity either. Thanatos...
I...simply embrace my screaming self
Whilst having dreams embraced by Thanatos, every night... Thanatos...
Thanatos...
The revolving, revolving, nightmarish sound of a bell
Does a silver carriage await me at its end? ...or Thanatos...
A fake Thanatos. A fake cycle of death and rebirth. A poem of the time until scattering.
I will live on, even whilst repeating fantasies... Thanatos...
The revolving, revolving, nightmarish sound of a bell
A system tracing the path proceeding to death. Life is a device that continues to give birth to fantasies. Thanatos...
The revolving, revolving, nightmarish sound of a bell...I feel like
Thanatos is watching me from somewhere... Thanatos...
