Blue Moon

Vocals: lily-an
Lyrics: azuki
Arranged by: kaztora
Album: ether [Official site]
Circle: Liz Triangle
Event: C89
Original theme: Pandemonic Planet [パンデモニックプラネット]

I’m… honestly not quite sure what to make of these lyrics. Perhaps they has something to do with Hecatia’s three different ‘selves’? She seems pretty angry for most of the song, but there are also some moments of sorrow and humour in there…

Oh yeah, this track is totally a parody of that Black-Eyed Peas song ‘Pump It.’ It’s also my most favourite arrangement of Pandemonic Planet so far, and it will likely remain that way for a long time to come.


Unofficial translation/非公式の英訳

Humans saw the moon in their dreams,
But there’s no way I’ll show them its other side!
Did you dream of travelling throughout the universe?
Well, the primordial sea
Never existed. There’s no way.
It’s an ideal land, found after slipping through the tunnel.

Once in a blue moon – no matter when, (ha ha ha – resound!)
You’ll never grab hold of dreams
With just any old words. Aah…

So you’ll lose sight of the full moon,
Yearn for the future! Wish upon a star!
At the place you sought at the furthest ends,
You’ll disappear, together with the fog in your closed eyes.

Yeah yeah yeah yeah!
I just killed nothing. I live in the present.
Playfully, I held my breath.

Yes – wake up, wake up! This is hell!
Get the hell out! I won’t let you get away,
It’s just like the cycle of death and rebirth…

Once in a blue moon – no matter when, (ha ha ha – resound!)
I won’t stop, I can’t stop
If you just tell me that it’s impossible.
I won’t let it end in this dream! Look!

So the waning moon will not grow full,
Advance now! Let there be light!
If even your memories no longer remain,
Then become space junk, which will not fade away. Oh yeah!

My body and soul burst open
Lock, stock, and barrel. Stop the music!
Even if I bloom, even if the siren’s at the front line,
Even if I cry, even if I cry… I won’t notice.

I fall in love with love and abandon the future.
Unable to dream in this dream, I continue to struggle.
The complicated, mysterious moon lurks in my chest.
Darkness will illuminate the world, even if everyone dies.

O vanished moon! Even now,
Do you seek the past you clung to?
O immeasurable gate to the everlasting darkness!
Let there be light for even the fools.
The moon has fallen, so much so that even prayers no longer reach it.
“This world is evergreen. It will not change.”
Let the light of darkness shine upon this world, in which even words are a hindrance!
“O, humans! For the future-”
