Ori no Naka no Yuugi

The fourth memory...

Lipstick in shade of red that evokes images of roses A liar’s promise on lips
A bouquet of flowers for the night that has risen and crumbled...

The game within the cage
A deserted mansion A beautiful prey Pushed onto the wall
The game within the cage
A creaking bed An arching body Moonlight simmers on the windowsill...

The tanned fingertips wrapped around a thin neck
Do not let go even when they left marks, but stayed in an embrace till the end...

The game within the cage
A pale blue garden A rusted shovel A coffin covered in flowers
The game within the cage A sudden spark The twisted sound of a gunshot A brilliant loop end...

That scream[singing voice] was much like wine
Sin is sweeter than a moonlit night
The falling song bore madness[Luna]
Illuminating darkness into a dance...

Gathering glittering jewels of instants[time] and shattering them
Remember till you forget You’re not allowed to escape till you’ve lost it...

The game within the cage
A twisted spiral The umpteenth awakening That laughter resounds
The game within the cage
If I don’t hurry, the day will break again
Once again, I’ll use these hands to make her...

A nostalgic melody from the attic
Remembrance is a sweet fruit, like the pale moon that simmers on the water surface
Even if I reach outside the cage, the slipping hands of time cannot be stopped
Knowing that the chrysalis shall eventually grow into a butterfly, I clip its wings so it doesn’t escape
At the very least, I want proof of our love, a never fading scar...

Have you forgotten anything?
Within this cage where law reigns supreme
Never ending nightmares[dreams] are being seen
The story of continuously murdering a beloved woman[person]
Throughout eternity...

Who is within that cage...?
