GOD BLESS THE CALIGULA SERIES
-----
Once you draw your last remaining breath
Even memories you have clung to
Will scatter into ash

As I realize what a curse a beating heart is
The mourners gather to laugh
At a hollow coffin

Those cries too will ultimately melt into the past
The flowers of the darkroom alone are dragged along
I can't stand it
What a tragedy it is to be doomed to death at birth

Hold on to every breath so that life
Remains as it is, shining in silver
May this unending reverie
Last forevermore

I don't want to fade away, please don't fade away
That alone is all for which I prayed
My final, final happiness
I won't let a soul, not one soul, snatch it away
I won't let go

Which world, I wonder, is the one made by man?
As I averted my gaze, the reaper tamed me
Back when I glorified the flickering flame
As the fraxinus continue to weep
I recall the way it all must end

How many days remain until morning arrives?
How many minutes remain until my quota is met?
How many seconds remain until my heart is sated?

I'm so afraid
That day may rot away before I even arrive

Hold on to every breath so that life
Remains as it is, shining in silver
May these soothing hymns
Resound forevermore

If someday this sorrow should leave us
I shall hope and pray until then
It's nothing more, nothing more than a pittance
This final, final wish of mine

I wished for those days to remain idyllic
I wished for the power to protect them
I wished for those nights to stay tranquil and calm
I wished for the power to protect them
I wished for those days to remain idyllic
I wished for the power to protect them
I wished for those nights to stay tranquil and calm
I wished for the power to protect them
I wished for those days to remain idyllic
I wished for the power to protect them
Even if it costs me everything I have

Hold on to every breath so that life
Remains as it is, shining in silver
May this unending reverie
Last forevermore

I don't want to fade away, please don't fade away
That alone is all for which I prayed
My final, final happiness
If despite it all, despite it all, you dare interfere
I'll make you pay

Kurapika Singing - Eternal Silver

i will probably get hate for continuing this but idgaf im real happy w/ how this one came out 😍
-----
Out of the blue, I chanced upon you
Your dazzling voice drawing me in
Into my colorless world you descended
Oh, those irreplaceable days

See, the day will come where these words of mine
Will no longer reach you either
But even with those thoughts in mind
I felt no fear whatsoever
So enduring was that radiant shine

It all comes crashing down
Without a single sound
Vanishing in cold blood
Leaving nothing behind
And when I think back on it
I just feel like a total fool
For ever giving my love to you

I won't ask anything of anyone
Through this idle march of time
Will the day come where the color fades
In this unwittingly silenced heart of mine?

If you're not able to show me the light
Then don't give me anything at all
If the things I come to trust in
Can start to crumble so easily
Then I won't let anyone in anymore

Just like the pasque flowers
That continue to bloom
Among the colorful blossoms and foliage

I'll live my life in total tranquility
So that no one can ever hurt me anymore

It all comes crashing down
Without a single sound
Vanishing in cold blood
Leaving nothing behind
And when I think back on it
I just feel like a total fool
For ever giving my love to you
And yet despite it all
Somewhere deep inside my head
Somewhere deep inside my heart
I keep on crying out. But see, though these feelings
Show only through tears
They aren't out of sorrow
I just want you to take these words to heart

μ: Aria, too? And the others?

μ: Why?

μ: Why?

μ: Why?

μ: Why won't they understand?!


"Oh, wandering heart,
forget about everything,
view only your ideals in this world guided by this song."

Aria: μ!

μ: Why?! Why are you doing this?! What's wrong with this world?!

μ: Besides, I asked all you Musicians not to do anything mean!

μ: No one... No one will listen to me at all!

Aria: Hey, μ!

Aria: I want to talk to you! Please listen to me!

μ: Shut up!

μ: Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!!

μ: All your feelings, all your happiness... I can save it all!

Aria: Hey, μ!

"I'll grant your wish,
so tell me...
Cry!! Since you cannot scream,
since you cannot sing.
I'll embrace your withering words.
Cry... where you can scream,
where you can sing
A never-ending Utopia that is repeated eternally."

Ritsu: Aria, what's happening to μ?

Aria: She can't control the power.

Ritsu: Control?

Aria: Up till now, she's been desperately holding back everyone's dark, muddy feelings within herself, and now they're spilling out.

Aria: Suffering, sadness, rage... All those negative emotions are running amok!

Aria: μ, don't! Get a hold of yourself! Don't lose sight of yourself!

Aria: At this rate, μ will cease to be μ!

"All the things that hurt you
you don't need them.
All the things that hold you back
you don't need them."

Aria: μ!!

"A happiness you can step out of
you don't need that.
A happiness not without pain
you don't need that.
The everyday life full of cruelty
you absolutely don't need."

Ritsu: μ... I've decided... What I have to do!

Aria: Ritsu!

Shogo: He did it without Aria's help?! His own Catharsis Effect?!

Ritsu: μ! I don't know what's right, either! But this world is definitely wrong!

Ritsu: So, μ... I'll stand against Mobius!

"Cry... since you cannot scream,
since you cannot sing.
I'll embrace your withering words.
Cry... where you can scream,
where you can sing.
A never-ending Utopia that is repeated eternally."

Ritsu: μ...

μ: Jerk...

μ: Ritsu, you jerk...

I'm not the one who gets to decide if I'm rewarded or if I perish.

I'm not the one

It sinks inside.
It sinks inside, the failure I am facing.

It's open wide.
"It's open wide," or so I am mistaken

I've lost my mind.
I've lost my mind. My shame is nonexistent.

I'm in a bind.
My body craves some form of retribution.

No matter how much I focus, nothing comes of it. Nothing comes of it.
No matter how I regret the answer I don't want to find
I've already reached the conclusion.

No matter what, I want to say
That I'm here in this place, and yet I am not.
I wish I could choose just one.
After all, I already have nothing left.

My grief is my desire. Flip it around, there's still no right side.
This place is the worst. There is no salvation.
I'm not the one who gets to decide if I'm rewarded or if I perish.

Suddenly, the futures that should've shone brightly are ground away.
Here and now, forms that should have been mundane are sheared away.

There's no way this could truly be happening. There's no excuse for it.
And yet the turmoil still remains. Even though there's no one to be blamed.

At this point, my dreams and reality have switched places, switched places.
My hesitations grew vague so long ago, they're no longer fathomable.

"Why am I unable to understand?
I am both here in this place, and yet I am not."
They both mean the same to me.
I can't bear it any longer.

Where does it all start and end?
The act of being humane? Of being alive?
There's not a single thing here that's definite.
I'm not the one who gets to decide if it's a punishment, penance, or paradox.

Farewell
Farewell

No matter what, I want to say
That I'm here in this place, and yet I am not.
I wish I could choose just one.
After all, I already have nothing left.

My grief is my desire. Flip it around, there's still no right side.
This place is the worst. There is no salvation.
Will I be rewarded or will I perish? I'm not the one who gets to decide.

I'm not the one who gets to decide if I'm rewarded or if I perish.

I'm not the one (x4)

W-W-Wicked sources
I-I-If I were to
I-I-It should be

The beat drops--it's our radicalism

"A proposition for all mankind.
Regarding this world galvanized
By the successful reformation of the citizenry.
Now tell me, what exactly is happiness?
Why, the hope that we've been striving for!
May you be free of your melancholy, one and all."

Lead the way to the answer. Go and carve out a path
Whose sake is this palette here for?
Take your wings to the wind and soar
Sing the praises of whatever,
folded palms in doubtful prayer (Eternally)
Ready? (Say yeah!) Come along and clap your hands

W-W-Wicked sources of misinformation
I-I-If I were to expose them here
I-I-It should be a simple thing to do
I'm sure even you'd understand

Nowhere can you find anything that matters more than words
The world is an ensemble cast and God directs the show
Come let your thoughts intoxicate and pull you in the flow
Being in a dream with no end is like Shangri-La
Take my hand, make some noise
Oh, what a wonderful world this is!
The beat drops--it's our radicalism

W-W-Wicked sources
I-I-If I were to
I-I-It should be

The beat drops--it's our radicalism

"A warning to all mankind.
Regarding the state of chaos incited.
By the insurrection of the ignorant masses
I wonder, which answer is the correct one?
Why, the one in line with our ideals!
May you be free of any misgivings, one and all."

Pesky, pathos-laden arguments
Abolished from the fools who spoke them
Absolute agitation
Brainwashed with a flutter from your body to your mind
No matter what you do, there's no way to stop it from spreading
Turn your moralities into casualties
Ready? (Say yeah!) Come along and clap your hands

W-W-With the boldfaced, bright-red news reports
D-D-D-Dance in biased braggadocio
I-I-It is such a simple thing. Or at least it is in your head

Nowhere can you find anything that matters more than words
This world is like a topsy-turvy puppet show
Come let your thoughts intoxicate and pull you in the flow
Being in a dream with no end is like Shangri-La
Take my hand, make some noise
Oh, what a wonderful world this is!
The beat drops--it's our nationalism

W-W-Wicked sources
I-I-If I were to
I-I-It should be

The beat drops--it's our radicalism

W-W-With the boldfaced, bright-red news reports
D-D-D-dance in biased braggadocio
I-I-It is such a simple thing. Or at least it is in your head

Nowhere can you find anything that matters more than words
The world is like a topsy-turvy puppet show
Come let your thoughts intoxicate and pull you in the flow
Being in a dream with no end is like Shangri-La
Take my hand, make some noise
Oh, what a wonderful world this is!
The beat drops--dance along with it!

A proposal for all mankind: The world is broken
How would you like for my reformations to mend it?
You're better off falling for a beautiful lie
