厌倦像蜂蜜一样粘稠
胸腔里塞满了沙土
难以呼吸
绵长的绝望没有一击致死的爆发力
只是很慢地耗尽人的精力

Tired of sticking like honey
A chest packed full of sand
It’s hard to breathe
An everlasting despair doesn’t have that explosive power of a deadly blow
Rather it slowly drains one’s energy

比火炽烈
每时每刻昏厥
纯粹倾慕
火光照耀
穷途末路
由想象哺育
由美好心灵处决

Fiercer than fire
Fainting at every given moment
Pure adoration
Flames radiate
Though destitute with no path
We’re fed by imagination
And good hearts execute all

The Crow​-​Cyan Lake 鸦​青​湖​畔

Yikii - Zoomorphism Migraine 化形・偏头痛

永恒之物
无尽索取的虚无

Eternal matter
An endlessly demanding nothingness

Yikii - Angel Fossil 天使化石

为了维持这场持久
荒唐的梦境

For the sake of maintaining this lasting,
absurd dream

当我抛弃我自己
从无能中苏醒

For me to discard myself
and wake up from impotence

花影摇曳
清醒者永远只会是少数

Flower shadows sway
The sober will always be a minority

半悬的月都颤抖着
无力抬起的手

Even the moon half-suspended trembles
There’s no strength to raise these arms

Yikii - The Undying Butterflies 黑死蝶

天鹅绒 空洞花
蓓蕾冉冉升起
水银上升为月亮
将冰之意志
围困住的不朽
愈发清晰
幽蓝的孤寂形式

Velvet. Hollow flowers
Budding slowly
Gleaming, mercury droplets rising to the moon
And the immortality that encloses the will of ice
It becomes more and more clear
The lonely form of a faint, blue flame

Yikii - Anomaly Of Silence 静异

（一）

被遥遥注视的悲剧
是一场滑稽的喜剧

The tragedy of being watched from afar
Is a funny comedy

（二）

记忆里的声音，像隔着厚重的墙。

头痛次数越多，这堵墙就越厚。

一个个不合逻辑的幻觉堵在时间另一边，
我的眼睛渐盲，被吸进光的漩涡。

肯定着索然无味的问题一至问题十。

我在这里，这里就是梦的水塘。

The sound of a memory is like a thick wall separating them

The more headaches you have, the thicker the wall becomes

And each illogical illusion gets trapped on the other side of time

My eyes grow blind and are sucked into a vortex of light

So I focus on the tedious questions from one to ten

I am here. This is the pond of dreams.

（三）

所有打破我的孤独的东西...

All the things that break my solitude...

（四）

怨恨的千军万马，它们从四面八方涌来，
化为丝丝寒意渗入我脚下的土地。

Troops of resentment, they come from all directions
Seeping into the ground beneath my feet as a tinge of cold

（五）

怪异的连结
玷污心爱之物的圣洁

Strange connection
Defiling the holiness of the beloved

（六）

我忘记了我是谁
我是大千世界散落的碎片
我是昨天路过的枯树
我是黑漆漆的乌鸦
我是一阵寒冬腊月的风
我什么也不是

I forget who I am
I am a scattered fragment of the world
I am the dead tree I passed by yesterday
I am a black raven
I am a gust of winter wind
I am nothing

（七）

梦的入口
思想的固体
赤身裸体
将一切束缚抛弃

Entrance to dreams
The solidity of thought
Nakedness
Relinquish the shackles

（八）

下着雪的宽阔广场
地面到处是高高矮矮的冰刺
零散地摆着几只巨型动物陶土玩具
温润的落日停在猩红小凉亭顶上……
暧昧的感动……

梦境如何影响现实？

以一种不可思议的推动力…

模糊虚实的界限…

显现出无限的可能性。

A wide square with falling snow
The ground covered with ice spikes tall and short
Several clay toys of giant animals were scattered
The warm sunset rested on the top of the small scarlet pavilion......
Ambiguously touched......

How do dreams affect reality?

With an incredible impetus...

Blurring the boundaries of reality and illusion...

Revealing infinite possibilities.

（九）

与世界割裂的孤独，
飘在虚空中的寂静，
还有多久才能到尽头？

The solitude of being cut off from the world,
The silence that floats in the void,
How much longer is there until the end?

（十）

世界局限在茫然的未知中

The world is confined in the bewildering unknown

-------------------------------

"This song is my favorite one on the whole album. The heaviness from the combination of microtone and brass makes me obsessed.... When I wrote this song I imagined a scene of an overpowering beast descending, a monster covering the sky, blotting out the sun, transformed by my melancholy, that crushes all living things in its path......

The words in the video come from some fragments of dreams and poems that I usually record." - Yikii

UNLOCKER – Yikii 20.05.25

Yikii composes, arranges, produces, mixes, sings, writes lyrics, and designs album covers for all her music.
​    Since 2017, she has released over ten entirely self-produced albums. Her style has evolved into a complex fusion, consistently showcasing a sleek dichotomy between nightmarish atmospheres and grandiose explosions of energy. Yikii has continually experimented with somber piano music, ethereal vocals, horror sound design, distorted hardcore kick drums, terrifying noise, nursery rhymes, and more. Although her music often leans toward melancholy, she focuses more on the faint glimmers of light that remain within the darkness. A rich sense of imagery reveals a strange world.
    From a young age, Yikii studied voice and piano. Upon acquiring her first computer, she began teaching herself music production using Logic Pro. Her creative impetus is drawn from nightmares, psychological trauma, and a longstanding fascination with science fiction literature.
    Yikii lives an isolated life, rarely socializing with humans and spending more time with animals. When tormented by the nihility of existence and immersed in nothingness, she creates music and poetry as a refuge, exploring dreams of the organic and inorganic beyond reality.
    During solitary walks, she often carries a recording device, capturing ambient sounds to incorporate into her works as "living music." She believes that these recorded moments are key clues to time travel.
    Yikii no longer performs live, having realized that her main style of music is unsuited to this format. The pressure of human crowds has become unbearable for her, both physically and psychologically.
