デッドアンドシーク || Dead and Seek

歌詞

幻想話の暴走
飛び込んだ事故の彼方から
単身で僕は気が付いた

反面、彼女は失踪
繰り返した伴侶の会話の温度は
簡単に脳裏で憎悪になって

その瞬間意識の高揚
気の遠くなる程の量の
計算で頭が詰まって

これが「人体組織の変貌」
冴えきった目の配色がなんだか
怪物じみてないですか

脳汁治まらない
細胞が知ろうとする
真夏日を描いた 赤、白、青の幻想
解剖で血に塗れた手を取ってよ

きっと君はまだあの夏の温度に
縛られてるんだ
「僕はまだ正常さ」

大丈夫、君以外を××してでも
すぐ助けるから

数年余りの研究
その精度は人類進歩の
数世紀分もの成果になった

幻想理論の究明
あの数奇で妙味で
どうしようもないような
空間はどうにも厄介そうで

あれは空想世界の存在?
物語の「中身」の様で
非現実じみていたんだ

ただ単純科学は聡明
あの時と同じ様に描いてやろう
「君と、僕のように」

絶対に許さない 明るい未来なら
あの日から、もう全部奪われてしまった
存在を確かめる様に今日もまた

実験を始めよう カウントダウンで
あのドアを さぁ、もう一回開こうか
「ねぇ。次は君の番だよ。
うまく逃げられるかな?」

Translation

This rampage took place in a tale of illusions.
Away from the accident I leaped into,
I regained consciousness alone.

However, she had disappeared.
The mood of repeated conversations with her partner
turned to hatred in her mind, simple as that.

That moment, my awareness was at its peak.
My head was crammed with so many calculations
it was like my mind was going somewhere far away.

This is the ‘transfiguration of the body’s structure.’
What colour are those clear eyes?
Don’t they seem a bit like a monster’s?

My brain juices won’t cool down
and my cells seek to become aware.
I imagined a midsummer’s day, a mirage of red, white and blue.
Take my hand, stained with blood from the autopsy.

You must still be bound by the heat
of that summer.
“I’m still normal!”

It’s fine, even if I XXX everyone other than you
I’ll help you out right away.

The accuracy of several years of research
bore enough results
for many centuries of human progress.

An investigation into illusion theory:
it was misfortunate and exquisite
and gaps in the research, which seemed inevitable,
looked so troublesome.

Does it involve the existence of a fantasy world?
It seemed like the ‘substance’ of a story
with a touch of unreality.

Still, simple science is so sensible.
Let’s sketch it out as we did back then:
“Just like you and I…”

If this is a bright future, one that’s not allowed,
then it means everything has been stolen away since that day.
Today, again, I seek to be sure of my existence.

So, let’s start the experiment with a countdown!
Shall we open that door one more time?
“Come on, it’s your turn next.
I wonder, can you escape successfully?”
