Lyrics

Another 19th century London...

A 《knife》that cut through the gorgeous ladies
Standing on a street corner and selling flowers; according to him
“It wasn’t me! I didn’t do it!”

-A 《serial killer》, declaring that his alter ego was the one who killed

The name of the peaceful woman, when asked across the magic mirror
“Mizuki, Aileen, Noriko, Rinrin, Ayaka, etc...” ←56 personalities

-A temporary 《record holder》 of multiple personalities

A gorgeously decorated embassy, close to the darkness
A woman and man past their prime, facing off
The gentlemen held a stick in his hands, the lady had a wheelchair
Behind her, a man clothed in black stared on gallantly

“...rules are needed in order to coexist with the refugees!”
“...if anything, you are the ones breaking the rules!”
“...we didn’t approve of the contract!”
“...that’s why we informed you earlier, this is a declaration of war!”

Ah...an argument ran on parallel lines, negotiations now 《broken off》in emptiness
The light side VS The dark side...the battle has already begun!

A profile being drenched in disappointment bears likeness to someone else’s...
A profile wavering in murderous intent bears likeness to someone else’s...

The ravaging storm of 《unemployment caused by restructuring》 due to privatization
Reaching out a hand towards the small boat wandering amidst the ocean of hatred
Is the boy’s whisper of “Why don’t you just kill?”...

Does privatization kill him or does he kill privatization?
Does privatization kill him or does he kill privatization?

-And the man took the social register in his hands...
