Rose
Those thorns bring pain
Until painted in glistening, glistening blood, rose
Instinct, regret, impatience, birth
Life, glory, decay, illusion

A clown, laughing, killed,
By crimson thorns, I am your prisoner
Crucifix, beauty, killed,
By corrupted thoughts, you paint me deep crimson

Kill a rose
Red, red passion
Flower petals scattered around

Rose is loneliness.
Sacrificial love.
Love of a glistening, burned rose
The blood pouring out was my love

I embrace a lonely rose
Painted in shimmering illusions

Holding you tight, you looked sad
Sweet scent, only now, with your poisonous fangs
And perfectly decorated, you’re so bright.
Rose I miss you, I fall into despair

Your pain is my nature
Trembling, we kill each other
Fluttering, we can’t love

Rose is loneliness.
Sacrificial love.
Love of a glistening, burned rose
The blood pouring out was my love

Seeping deeply into the soil
My tears, my dreams, my colors
I embrace a lonely rose
Painted in red illusions

Even the memories
I thought I made with you will be destroyed
I’ll chop you up when you’ll crumble
Rose I miss you, I’ll fall into despair

You and I, dreaming of a love that would never happen
The faults of our mad, detestable past
I’d be break if I came close to you, I embrace you and fall into despair

薔薇
赫く赫く血に染まるまで
その棘で痛みを伝えて rose
本能 後悔 焦燥 誕生
生命 栄光 衰退 幻想

道化師 笑う 紅の荊に
殺された僕はあなたの虜
磔 美貌 堕落した思想に
殺された君は真紅に染まる

kill a rose
赤く赤い激情
花弁撒き散らして

rose is loneliness.
Sacrificial love.
焼け堕ちる赫 いばらの愛
血を流しては 愛した

孤独の薔薇を抱いて
染まるは赫い幻想

抱きしめてた君は悲しげに
甘い香り 今だけは毒牙で
飾り澄ます君は鮮やかに
rose i miss you 絶望に散る

あなたが苦しいのは僕の性
ゆらゆら 殺しあい
ひらひら 愛せない

rose is loneliness.
Sacrificial love.
焼け堕ちる赤 いばらの愛
血を流しては 愛した

流れる深い底へ
涙も夢も色も
孤独の薔薇を抱いて
染まるは緋い幻想

壊れてゆく僕の記憶さえ
貴女となら描けると思った
崩れてゆく君を切り刻む
rose i miss you 絶望に散る

叶わぬ愛を夢見た君と僕の
狂った忌まわしい過去の過ち
近づけば壊れてしまう君を抱きしめ絶望に散る

B Type
Isn’t it delicious.
I grow excited
Nervous about what the flavor will be
I try to eat
I'm happy.
Ahh… What flavor would you be
If you’d allow me
I’d even become your faithful dog
I’d become your hope.
　　　　　Tsuzuku

＿＿＿＿＿｡o*†*o｡＿＿＿＿＿

Regular type
Will you keep hiding.
That you’re laughing there near me.
Muffle these feelings of jealousy, crunch them.
Because your smiling face is dazzling.
I guess you won’t come back, but please allow yourself to smile near me.
This umbrella concealing your tears
is littered with holes, some day it’ll break too.

「It’s okay, isn’t it? Destroy it all.」
　　　　　Tsuzuku

RISK:er
The comfort coming from my left wrist made it rain and I laughed

It’s not that I simply want to die
A jack-knife turning my pain into peace of mind
It’s not that I want someone to understand
It’s not that I want someone to notice

Something’s closing in on me again
it’s the impulse to reject everything and anything

A jack-knife clinging to my “loneliness”
It’s not that I’m just getting used to the pain
It’s not because I’m carrying everything on my shoulders
I can’t rely on people
1st. The first time… trembling hands: Movements of desire
2nd. Extending the knife in your hand again: Movements of impulse
3rd. Crying while wanting to escape: Libido
2 hours of obtaining rest

RISK:er
I cried
Warped World
I direct my fangs to my wrist again
Wrist cut
Pain
Doubt
Tears
I’m made to forget about all of them

psychiatric disorder

Wrist cut
Broken
It’s not like that
I don’t get it
I still remember
Closing my eyes a bit when feeling exhausted
Waiting for the next morning

“Let me take your hand…?”

My pain sets the now free
My pain keeps the now alive
My pain heals the now
My pain, my pain

Jealousy
Your beautiful fingers and long hair sparkling in the dim candlelight
You left a strong bite mark in my shoulder saying “you’re mine”…

The pain from touching it makes me remember
Your secret pierces trough my umbrella, but

 “If” you won’t come back, at least you’re near
Making me dream of oblivion
Laughing, pretending not to notice
Don’t disturb my heart, just for now…

Whose reflection is in your eyes now?
The distance between us is by no means large, but…

We embraced each other and said “from now on”
Your secret is making me feel sick, but

 “Because” you won’t come back, at least you’re near
Erasing my jealous mind
I’m crying while pretending not to notice,
Don’t disturb my words, just for now…

You won’t come back “and yet” at least you’re near
Merely making me recite this anguish
Now you’re laughing with him
My imagination broke me
“You won’t come back “but” at least you’re near
Even though it’s an empty dream, it’s making me smile
Will you look at me just tonight?
It’s just me and the bite mark you left

嫉妬
儚いキャンドルが照らす綺麗な指、長い髪
“僕のモノだ”と肩へ強く歯型残してた…

触れた痛みで思い出して
君の秘密に僕は傘をさすけれど

届かない“なら”せめてそばで
忘却の夢を見させてよ
気付かないふりで笑って
今だけは心乱さないで…

その目には今誰が映っていますか?
君との距離は決して遠くはないのだけれど…

抱き合って語った“これから”を
君の秘密に僕は吐き気がするけれど

届かない“から”せめてそばで
嫉妬という心をかき消して
気付かないよう僕は泣いて
今だけは言葉乱さないで…

届かない“のに”せめてそばで<
この苦しみをただ語らせて
今君は彼と笑う
想像が僕を壊した
届かない“けど”せめてそばで
夢物語でも笑わせて
今夜だけは僕を見ていて?
僕だけのだとまた歯型残した

Lunar eclipse
How does the moon taste?
Do you feel it? The meaning of crying out

Why are birds birds?
Why won’t I fly?

Waxing and waning chandelier
Waxing and waning Shangri-La
Waxing and waning Sabrina
Waxing and waning Gloria
Eaten and full, you are Moonlight
Eaten and full, dreams are Moonlight
Eaten and full, your voice is Moonlight
Eaten and full, your love is Moonlight

I want to eat it
Preparing a pistol for that which doesn’t taste well
CRUSH!

Eaten and full, your voice is Moonlight

[1] The Japanese word for eclipse literally means “eaten”, so that’s where all the mentions to eating come from.

Ugly song
A spiral of not eating purified my heart[1]
Silence and wine
I’ll down it all…Lie

If oval shapes bring good fortune
Envy and jealousy
how many years will it take for you to yearn for them

Shortcake clinging to the past
The fresh cream inviting me
Swayed by urban flowers
I’ll destroy this wall

A room grieving desire
You were always planting seeds of happiness
A room without even dreams
I saw the purpose of sin and dreamt of desire…

I watch over the cosmos, from the past I suddenly fell into
My self-restraint snaps with a small sound…
We hit our necks together in applause
Wax dancing together and melting
「Reality is ugly, at least my mind is. 」

A room of quiet and future
Even now you’re smiling in my arms
A reality of desire mixed with desire
I’ll build a road… so don’t let go of my hand

feel uneasy…
I feel helpless without you.


[1] Eh, I’m really not sure about is, but “詩神” in the lyrics I found makes absolutely zero sense, and since Gesshoku was littered with typo’s too… I hear “uzu” as well, and since that makes a lot more sense I’m going to agree with Peffy. I’ll double-check when I find scans or receive my copy.

生クリームが僕を誘う
都に咲いた花に揺れ
僕は壁を崩す

そこは欲望の嘆く部屋
君はいつも幸の種を蒔いた
そこは夢想だにしない部屋
罪の意思と、願う夢を見た…

不意に倒れ込んだ過去から見守りしコスモスよ
パチンと音を立て切れた自我の抑制…
首を締め合い拍手喝采
交わり踊り蝋は溶ける
「醜い現実よ、この心だけは。」

そこは安らぎと未来の部屋
君は今も腕の中微笑む
そこは欲と欲が混ざる現実
道を創るから…この手を離さないで

feel uneasy…
I feel helpless without you.

A PRIORI

-A PRIORI

If this reality were to be a priori

I’d destroy the gods, you and everything-

And what I discovered inside this silver box

As well as being granted to wander through the sea in this box

A PRIORI

My synapses are bursting with sound

Time, the bell is sounding too soon

Our past and our contract shredded to meat

“You must be shedding tears”

Living

And loving

Hindered by these sharp words that don’t cross over

「That’s right」 the aphrodisiac of a kiss

I can't forget the past...

The past I composed and my lamenting… are they still scattered around?

My past, my present and my future “look” once again were regenerated

A PRIORI

Deterioration and reverberation feeling each other’s beauty

A sweet smell drifting through a soundless box

Taboos and resistance are vanishing into knots

“I already knew”

Flapping your wings

And ceasing to

Poisoned by my torn up past

「That’s right」 sacrifice of harmony

I can't forget the past...

Many people have been given

This time without wondering “why”

Just stuffing in food[1], sneering at your feet

Why are you laughing upon seeing the darkness?

Being loved

And loving

Guided by limiting dices…

「That’s right」we already knew

I can't forget the past...

When tomorrow didn’t even come

When there was no change

I stirred up the “depression” and glass

I knew… knife of condemnation…

I can’t forget the past…

Destroying

And being destroyed

[1] The sort of food you’d feed to animals

[2] The booklet contained a quote from the Japanese wikipedia page explaining the term "a priori". Since it's wikipedia and you can easily look up the article in your own language I didn't feel like it needed to be translated. If you're not sure of the definition I'd really advice you to look it up because it's a significant part of the meaning of the song.

「There you go… How’s this soup?」

It’s a soup of pink goat with goldfish 

A film submerged in my irises

「There you go… please use this」

This reality is like a dream

“Cold wall, of roaming people”

Tonight again, people are lifting an invisible axe over their heads

Exile the heart of dead sinners

Smearing the wall with mud of emotions

A young girl on the other side… guts wrapped around her head

「There you go… Please press the button」

Clatter, clatter, clatter… A goat’s head falling down

In the days named depression

People getting absorbed into the blue walls

Solidified as red

Wordplays

I’m forcing out a laugh as I write this

Demolition

The present

Deterioration

The present

Disaster

Destroyed

Destroyed

Created

「There you go… How’s this soup?」

You wait for the morning in a silent night

Beneath the skyscraper tearing through the darkness,

You spread out your arms and pretended they were wings

break the wall! break the wall!

You reach out your arm, the sky going blurry

Light and shadow peaked trough your fingertips

The dreams you once had

You opened your eyes and glared up at the sky

It’s impossible to go back.

Don’t fear anything! fly!!

We flapped our wings shaking off the rain

Passing over this world of lies

If you’d take my hand to not be separated

Hold me tightly

Because I believe that we can fly 

To the end of the scenery in front of our eyes

do not fear it, go even higher

Sweeping away the clouds concealing the moon, we’re going towards the future for sure

draw the dream, I’ll show you how to color tomorrow

In a cloudless sky

You’ll try to ask about the past

But don’t look back

Just face forward

Just play

We flapped our wings shaking off the rain

Passing over this world of lies

If you’d take my hand to not be separated

Hold me tightly

Because I believe that we can fly 

To the end of the scenery in front of our eyes

do not fear it, go even higher

We’ll fill the monochrome morning with color

Beyond the rainbow

Black Baccarat

The night that bound me to you,

Swallowed by the words I saw that day

If I see it as simple "sadism",

A red rose destroyed by tears

You've written down on my body

If you’d translate this mischief

of God into love

Armeria[1] carved into skin

Black baccarat of love and greed

Black baccarat the beauty of eternity

Black baccarat sap of rebirth

Black baccarat, the reason for this beautiful view

I just want to be loved in this never-ending night

in Hate

A picture inside a box

If I could take everything from you now

To you

A curse and my lips for eternity

I’ll translate this night of farewell into a withering rose

in Hate

Love… your spell

Despair, corruption, payment, spira of suffering 

remainder of my voice…

eternal regret

Black baccarat

The words of you who is dancing on the water surface

Some time they’ll turn to ice and sleep

Right? Understand?

My thoughts have been completed by yours

Well, let me hear your next words…

[1] As you may or may not have noticed by now, besides colors, Tsuzuku also has a thing with flowers. He mentions them a lot, but also has made mentions of flower symbolism. So you might wanna keep that in mind. 

According to flower symbolism, the armeria stand for “sympathy”. Red roses are obvious, they mean “love”. Then there are baccarat mentioned: black roses. Tsuzuku talks about this in an interview with visulog and he explains their meaning as “I hate you a lot, but I love you”, because black roses aren’t really black, they’re just a shade of red that’s close to black.

Lycaon interview with VISULOG - Part 1 (English Translation)

Part 1 for now, part 2 will follow soon~

＿＿＿＿＿｡o*†*o｡＿＿＿＿＿

The New single 『bara ~rose~』 from a reborn Lycaon which now counts five members with the adittion of new drummer Ichirou, has arrived. In this work Lycaon's tunes again include a new essence without changing, and furthermore they were completed into a work with deep meaning.
We listened to the story of the five guys who will embark on their first oneman tour "2013 Spring Oneman Tour - Taste of 『Rose』 -" through Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka as a five member band starting in may.

―― Ichirou-kun just joined the band, so do you feel any different from before you were an official member?

Ichirou: I was a support member for 2 years so I don't really know how to feel, but becoming an official member has definitely increased my sense of responsibility.

Satoshi: The five of us are now feeling like "The new Lycaon has begun!". Of course the four member Lycaon we were until now will remain but I feel like these five members will be creating new things together again, so we want to always strive after a freshness without forgetting our original intentions.

Hiyuu: He was a support member for us for two years, so at first I didn't think it would make a difference if he became a member but there really has been quite a change. The atmosphere of the band has become great and above all we started talking a lot more together. So it hasn't been a bad decision (haha).

Ichirou: Two years sure was long for my training period...... (haha).

All: Ahahaha.

―― And on February 2nd the first single with the sound of your new lineup 『bara ～Rose～』 was released right.

Satoshi: I came up with the original melody, but since the line-up changed and we changed our attitudes, we talked a lot about "what kind of elements can we add". Until now Lycaon strongly contained the different colors of the four of us, but Ichirou joined and that gave us the challenge of "how to represent that change", so I feel like we expressed that in mixing Ichirou's dark side into the brightness of the song.

―― The composition is really varied.

Satoshi: We also talked about if it wasn't too long, but we couldn't find anything to leave out so in the end we figured this version was the right one.

―― What sort of meaning does the title『bara ～Rose～』have?

Yuuki: At the time I wrote the song and lyrics, I created it more from the image of "Yuuki" vocals than from the way the words sounded, but this time the flashy "Yuuki" came out and among all the flashiness there's also beauty, brightness and prettiness, but also thorns. With that kind of image, the fascinating impression of Lycaon and the violent parts [of the song] I had no choice but to call it "Rose".

―― What's the message of the lyrics?

Yuuki: Until now I've always cared about myself too much and I wasn't able to see what was going on around me and I didn't understand anything but myself. Because of that I didn't know what I wanted, but when Ichirou joined and we talked about the band's activity I emerged from, or should I say broke away from the me who's always cared about himself and understood that I had to create a new me. Or maybe that it's no good to never change. It's based on my experiences and so it has a strong meaning of "rebirth".

―― Is there something you were conscious of when you were playing it?

Rito: When the sound is powerful you leave a strong impression, it’s basic but, I play strongly because I want the nuances to come out with power, so when I’m playing I’m really conscious of being exactly in the rhythm.

Hiyuu: I wanted to really bring across the feeling of a mix of intensity and fascination so I paid a lot of attention to the lyrics when I played. During the last recording I did some picking and I found a lot of my own themes so from now on that’s something I want to delve in deeper.

Ichirou: I’ve got more cymbals compared to when I was still playing as a support member, but the sound coming from cymbals also varies with the size and thickness so I’ve been talking about using them like that a bit with composer Satoshi.

Satoshi: The way the cymbals sound can change the song’s entire image so I’m definitely going to pay more attention to that next time.

―― Please tell me something about the best parts [in the song]

Satoshi: At one point there’s a long silence after the solo, then the drums come in with a solo and I’m really pleased about that part. The song had a different feel to it in its demo stage, but when we were all jamming during the recording the rhythm section suddenly started doing something different and it sounded really cool so I used it (haha).

Ichirou: I really feel the same too. It’s the point where the drums and bass stand out most so I want you to listen to that.

Rito: For me it’s the intro part. It starts with just a guitar arpeggio and then all members come in but when I play that riff I feel really good so that’s why I like it. The intro manages to present the image of the song really well.

Hiyuu: For me it’s the female chorus in the intro. Rito said it too but the intro creates the atmosphere of the song so that’s why I want you to listen to it.

Yuuki: Actually that chorus is my mom……

Hiyuu: Is it okay to say that?

Yuuki: Well VISULOG is special (haha).

―― Thank you very much. Is your mother a singer as well?

Yuuki: She really isn’t, it just suddenly came to be (haha).

―― Since it's your parent your voices must sound similar.

Yuuki: They probably are (haha). We definitely have the same basis so I think the way we sing is similar.

―― So Yuuki’s recommendation [to listen to] is his mother's chorus after all?

Yuuki: Of course, but besides that the verse and bridge really showcase Lycaon’s recent vocal approach so I want you to listen to that too.

―― How did you record the MV?

Satoshi: It has a "red" image.

Yuuki: The red is standing out in the monochrome color scheme. We didn’t really have a location until now, but this time we did and the location had a chandelier that matched the atmosphere of 『bara ～Rose～』, rose petals were falling down and because we did the MV a bit different than we used to I think it’s filled with highlights. It’s an MV that really has that sense of “ah, they’ve changed”.

Hiyuu: The thing that’s changed most is the fact that there’s drums set up now. Ichirou gave his best efforts and appears in a lot of parts and the way he strikes his drums is really cool too so you should definitely watch it.

―― Can you tell me about the second track “kuroneko”?

Satoshi: When I made the song I thought it would be interesting to create a “gothic” atmosphere we hadn’t done before and so I created the shuffle rhythm with a gothic feel. When I start writing a song there’s always surprises and Yuuki also did a lot for the melody so the song was completed really smoothly. It’s also the first time we used piano in a song so I think we were also able to express a more mature eroticism in some parts.

―― And what about the lyrics?

Yuuki: I have a black cat myself but in the end stages of the song it didn’t have that “black cat” image yet, but when I wrote the lyrics and the melody the title “black cat” just suited it. The atmosphere was also really precise so I had no choice but to call in “black cat” because it felt as if I ‘d written it together with my black cat and thanks to that I instantly knew what to do with the melody too. Being a singer is different than doing the instrumental part, if you don’t have an image, or rather, if you don’t have an imagination you can’t get the smallest details of the text done. The chords and such aren’t really theoretical I just smoothly wrote them all in one go with the image of a black cat in my head. (TN kuroneko means black cat).

―― And the content of the lyrics?

Yuuki: I wrote it while thinking back on meeting my black cat and our life together. It’s mainly the story of me meeting my cat, a story of me hugging a cat that was abandoned in a cardboard box in the rain and taking him home.

―― The scene you drew inspiration from was pretty real right, since it’s something you experienced yourself.

Yuuki: I’m not sure about that since I described it into such detail.

―― Is there anything you obsess over when playing this song?

Hiyuu: There’s this point where the bass fades out before the guitar solo and then comes in again together with the drums like “guh”, I’m really pleased with that part.

Rito: I really like the feeling all of the chords have, or rather, their timbre, so instead of just one particular part I like the entire atmosphere of the song. We did songs like this in the past too but since we haven’t used the piano before it’s still fresh.

Ichirou: I drum with the image of a black cat walking in my head and I really love having that feeling.

黒猫

雨が寂しく突き刺す夜はつま先歩き　寒くて凍えそうだから

捨て猫の傷　水面に映る黒猫は闇

誰にも見向きもされずに鳴いていた

籠の中　震えてる夕闇に溶けたその身体はずぶ濡れの声だした

僕は抱きかかえた涙に濡れる

愛らしく鳴いてみせたその瞳は

あなただけを愛した私を

何もかもが消えてしまうのなら

ただひとつはそばに居させて欲しい

永遠に

月を見上げて　手招く君は甘える素振り　頬ずり　喉を鳴らすから

鼻先ひかる滴をそっと受け止める脚

涙と間違えぬようにすくった

夜の影に隠れて一人眠ってる君は黒猫　地下牢で

蹲る君を抱きかかえた涙に濡れる

臆病な声　そっとすり寄る君は

僕の影に隠れた黒猫

ひとりきりの寂しい夜には

泣き止むまで君と眠りたい

永遠に

地下牢で蹲る

あなたを抱きしめていたい

泣きじゃくる君がみせたその仕草が僕の胸の消えない爪痕

愛らしく鳴いてみせたその瞳は

あなただけを愛した私を

何もかもが消えてしまうのなら

ただひとつそばに居させて欲しい

永遠に

tada hitotsu soba ni isasete hoshii

Black cat

Tiptoeing trough a lonely night pierced by rain,

You seem freezing cold

Wound of a stray cat, the darkness of a black cat reflecting in the water

You meow without anyone looking your way

Inside a basket, you shiver, absorbed in darkness, your body dripping wet, you cried

I held you, soaked in tears

Your pupils showing me your lovable mewling

I only love you

If everything would vanish

You’re the only one who I’d want to keep here

For eternity

You look up at the moon, beckon me in a spoiled manner, cheeks rubbing together, your voice sounds

You softly wipe the glistering drops off the tip of your nose with your paw

There’s no mistake that they were tears.

You’re a black cat sleeping alone concealed in the shadows of the night, a dungeon

You’re cowering, I held you, soaked in tears

A timid voice, you’re a black cat

softly nestling in my shadow

You’re all alone in this lonely night

I want to sleep with you until you stop crying

For eternity

Cowering in a dungeon

I want to hold you

The things you did, sobbing, have left permanent scars in my heart.

Your pupils showing me your lovable mewling

I only love you

If everything would vanish

You’re the only one who I’d want to keep here

For eternity

Time passed, you didn’t appear

Hanging phone… calling without a break, my ears hurt

You’re delicate, you must be sleeping

I came understand the symbolism in flowers… my chest hurts with its irony

「To you who has become transparent. I send you my irony.」

Regular type

Teach me how to simply write down the reason to keep wanting someone time and time again

「It’s because I love you.」

I think I love you.

But, what is that love…

「It’s because I love you.」

I think I want to make you happy.

But, what is that happiness…

「It’s because I love you.」

………

A type

Tiny flowers everywhere

This isn’t a scenery you’d usually find 

But, because you’re not that one flower you can find everywhere,

When you’re in pain, would you please try looking for them at ease?

Because you’ll surely see something

Because this is the path you always walk.

B type

In short…

If you want to be loved, love them

if you want to be loved, love yourself

pursue love with an 「affection」 that exceeds that love

I want to love myself

Because I want all of your 「love」 and 「affection」
