Midnight Syndrome

歌詞

気もどこか漫ろ 月陰り朧
廻れメリーゴーラン　プレートには”OLD ADAM”
迷い込んだBack alley　浮いた客ばかり
少し甘口　乾杯しようスペシャルラフ

不思議な魔法　優しい理想
二人のVision　ここにあるよ
瞬いた　明けの明星落ちてくる前に
今宵限りのパレエド
始めよう

伝えたい言葉さえ　簡単に見失いそうな今日この頃
影絵の中に　他人のフリして　紛れ込んだジョーカー
生まれては消えてゆく　ちっぽけな　嘘とリアルの境界線へ
常世鏡の映す空まで
導いて　あげる
朝も　夜も　君も　私も
凡てMidnight syndrome

—これは私が　実際に現で体験した　オリジナルの噂話
今じゃ誰もが　忘れかけてた　寂しがりの旧びた都市伝説

子供の頃　開けた窓
二人のshadow　どこにいるの
探し疲れて画面の中
ビルの谷間に揺り籠

戻れない明日さえ　冗談の中に隠した　ホントの事
ほろ酔う火照り　君のせいにして　ちょっと大人びたSign
静まり返る街で　ひっそりと仲間外れの電波塔よ
眠れないのなら　今夜は傍で
囁いて　あげる
月も　星も　君と　私の
Storyteller’s Night Fantasy

ゆら揺ら遊覧　踊るceiling
ふら震ら風来　惑わせてMissing
上々な気分
高揚な身分
もうちょっとだけ　Fade-out　白日の胡蝶

この歌を二人の　幻想への対抗神話にしよう
隠されたものを　暴くために　many
瞳にうつすために

交わった現在はやがて　永遠に果てなく続く　冒険の序章
まだ未完成の　間違い探しに　きっと答なんてない
私達が求める　真実は　はじめから秘と封の中に
いつかどこかで　語り合うまで
揺蕩って　眠れ
朝も　夜も　月も　星も
今も　いつも　君と　私
誰も　彼も　ゆめも　うつつも
凡てMidnight syndrome

Translation

I feel a bit restless. Haze obscures the moon.
The merry-go-round spins. On the plate is “OLD ADAM.”
I got lost in a back alley. All I can see are merry customers.
The Special Rough is a bit sweet. Let’s raise a toast!

Mysterious magic. A gentle ideal.
Our shared vision is right here.
Venus twinkles before it falls.
Let’s start this parade, one that will last
for tonight only.

Today, it seems like I’ll lose even the words I want to say.
The joker disappeared into a silhouette, pretending to be someone else.
They are born and then they die, heading to the tiny border between lies and reality.
I’ll guide you to the sky
reflected in the eternal mirror.
Morning, night, you, and I…
We are all midnight syndrome.

…This is an original rumour, one that I myself experienced in the flesh.(1)
It’s an urban legend that’s gotten lonesome and out of style. Everyone’s started to forget it. 

This is our time. The window was open.
Where is our shadow?
I get tired of searching in the screen.
A cradle rests in the chasm between the buildings.

Even tomorrows we can’t get back are hidden in jokes. It’s true!
I’m tipsy, feeling a hot flush. I blame you. This is a slightly mature sign.
In a quieting neighbourhood, there’s a power pole, inconspicuously separate from its fellows.
If you can’t sleep, I’ll stay by your side
and whisper to you.
This is the moon’s, the stars’, your, and my
Storyteller’s night fantasy.

We sightsee, swaying from side to side. The ceiling dances.
Trembling erraticism leads us astray. Missing.
I feel great!
I’m in great condition!
The butterflies of sunshine will fade out, just a little more.

Let’s make this song our myth, our resistance to illusions.
We’ll sing it many times to unmask hidden things
so we can see them.

Intersecting presents will, at last, continue forever. It’s the preface to a journey.
There mustn’t be an answer to this incomplete spot-the-difference.
The truth we searched for was between secrets and seals from the start.
Until we can talk together someday, somewhere,
We will sway to and fro and sleep.
The morning, the night, the moon, the stars,
Now forever, you, and I,
Everyone, them, dreams and reality…
They’re all a midnight syndrome.
