Songs

• In Hell We Live, Lament
  I walked down a path
  Leading to the past
  Stole from the tree's hands
  A regretter's friend
  The forbidden fruit
  I bite off the skin
  Chewing on its tender flesh
  Quaff down its lukewarm pus
  You became the "me" who you despised
  We swallowed the time
  Let us rewind
  
  Lament
  If you wanted me to speak
  If you wanted me to think
  If you wanted me to carry on our dreams
  Each loop we live through
  (Each loop we live through)
  The standards inside me
  The line I drew for me
  Lowers to the earth
  Lament
  Why'd you make my voice stutter?
  Why do truths never matter?
  Why'd you curse me with "you're a natural born genius"?
  Endless inferno (Inferno)
  Counter-clock we rose
  Counter-clock we reload
  
  Tick tick tock
  Replayed thoughts
  Forget me not
  I'm inside the empathic light
  I bite off your skin
  Exposing the angels on your ribs
  They stare at us
  Hello, how may I help you today?
  Please, a one-way ticket to heaven
  Buckled up on velvet seats
  Sceneries were passing by
  Not so different from our hell
  Not so different from our home
  Then I realized
  Someone's heaven could be the source of my torment
  Life is allowing yourself
  Allowing yourself to step on fire
  (Life is to consume)
  (Life is to become food for each other)
  Shed tears on bloodied routes
  (No matter evil or good)
  (Life is fairness, life is inequality)
  Eternally in hell
  (Life is in the motion)
  We live by default
  
  Lament (Nell)
  If you wanted me to live (Inferna)
  If you want me to forgive
  If you want us to pretend like we're civilized humans
  Each loop we die through (Ques te anim?)
  (Each loop we die through)
  (Ques sej mentalle?)
  The justice inside me
  The ego fending me (Ques io fuocca?)
  Rationalize my sin (Ques qui Diavola?)
  Lament
  Why do deaths end my torture?
  (Cossa non naturha)
  Why can't anyone feel my hurt?
  (Via si violenzalle)
  Why'd you crown the most violent to be champions?
  (Bruschia sej diva, verha ignisa)
  In this inferno (Inferno)
  (A! Lamenta, lamenta)
  We built for ourselves (Cis senza)
  (Lamenta, lamenta, lamenta)
  Reviving each other in this hell
  (Nell inferna)
  
• Pass On (Sarajinae) (English Subtitles)
  The old days of chasing down shadows
  All that remains are vain memories
  As if a fire swept right over me
  All that's left in my hands is ash dust
  
  I have run all without rest
  Those times gone by that got me choked up
  Will I end up missing them too?
  A long, long ways from right now
  When I look back on those memories
  I sure hope that I can smile
  
  With whatever time I have left to me now
  I need to take my steps forward
  Burning myself up until I'm no more
  I must look just like a candle
  
  Without a moment to breathe
  I was thrown into turbulent days
  I hope that I can take my path
  A long, long way from right now
  When I look back on those memories
  I sure wish that I can smile
  
  Let me, let me fly far so far away
  So I can reach the stars like a bird upon the night sky
  This night, this night, will visit me again, I'm sure, but...
  It's alright since I can live on.
  
  It's alright

• Between Two Worlds
  (Realm of Light)
  Ooh
  It's this time of the year
  A very so merry night we hold dear
  So many, so many regrets bring me to tears
  Not many, not many notice nor care
  
  Oh, oh, oh,
  My savior
  Oh, oh, oh
  Why does a common fire hold so much power?
  
  If only we could be forever naïve and pure
  If only we could lead painless futures
  If only there could be a forgiving world
  
  (Realm of Darkness)
  
  Maybe that was when
  I chose to stay fallen
  
  Lights
  A star
  A voice
  A twisted thought
  
  A touch, (a touch)
  A kiss, (a kiss)
  A distorted dream
  
  Ripples (ripples)
  A well (a well)
  A stone (a stone)
  A multiplying desire (desire)
  
  A fruit (a fruit)
  A sin (a sin)
  A holy mother
  
  I'm infected, I'm infected
  You have invaded and re-created me
  
  Stepped over my body
  Found a sunny spot
  Curled into a ball
  Spinning out the silk
  From my head to toe
  
  Inside the warm cocoon, I dreamt to be like you
  Though I know there's no undo
  What do I have left to lose?
  
  Split
  A sky
  An earth
  I fell into a crack (choir a crack)
  
  A birth (choir a birth)
  An egg (choir an egg)
  A freshly opened membrane
  A cell
  A rot
  A face returned to ashes
  A wound
  An art
  A sentient canvas
  
  Breaking, breaking, breaking the shell
  Breaking out, oh break it now
  Show me how, show me how
  Listen up, my broken child
  Let's lament, let's lament
  The life, the death, the good, the bad
  The never ending curse we cast
  
  Control, control, control, release
  Control, betray, control, let go
  Conceal, reveal, unreal, surreal
  Invoke, evoke, decode, reload
  Let's lament, let's lament
  The past that only got to live in the incomplete holy land
  
  Celestial (choir ayiah)
  We're astral (choir ayiou)
  I'm reborn (choirle rheaiah)
  Total liberation (choir katre o lamenta)
  My tender skin
  A vagitus song (choir essential)
  
  I breathed (choir eventual)
  And screamed (choir eternal)
  From my new lungs (choir inevitable freeing of the soul)
  

• Fly, My Wings
  Fly, broken wings
  I know you are still with me
  All I need is a nudge to get me started
  
  Fly, broken wings
  To somewhere we can be free
  Closer to our ideals
  
  Teary Eyed
  Once-gentle soul
  I watched as you rotted away
  The mirror says
  That I still remember hope
  Mmm
  
  You're doing what you love
  Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
  A genius, perfect job
  Isn't that enough? Isn't that enough?
  Again and again
  You locked me down, I locked me down
  We staked me to the ground
  The soil gave me warmth
  
  Please die, little dreams
  Kill the camellias in me
  Wouldn't it be easier to give in?
  Why are these hands chasing dreams out of my reach?
  Is my thirst for normalcy odd?
  
  Fly, perfect wings (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
  Where have you been hiding?
  Bring me to mind that got us started
  Fly, perfect wings (Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
  Show them who I can be
  For the one last time, if you will
  
  That's all.
  
• Compass
  Bon Voyage
  
  Your mermaid's setting sail
  At last
  
  Full speed towards your heart
  Full speed towards your heart
  
  I've had enough
  
  I'm reclaiming myself
  
  The aft
  
  Leaving behind the hurt
  Leaving behind the hurt
  
  When it snapped
  
  My compass was swallowed by the sea
  My compass was swallowed by the sea
  
  I cursed this relationship between you and me
  
  I wanted blood
  I wanted black and white
  
  Clear cut
  
  Your evils predefined
  Your evils predefined
  Hold on tight
  
  My compass is curiosity
  My compass is curiosity
  
  I'm piercing through the rope that strangled you and me
  Let us be free
  
  High tide,low tide
  High tide,low tide
  High tide,low tide
  High tide,low tide
  
• Through Patches of Violet
  How much I wish for another
  Bitter, happier, brighter future
  Here I am, at the gate I stand
  Dear old times, I’ve made up my mind
  
  How much you much have suffered (overlooked)
  My anger (Your wonder)
  Vulgar (Forward)
  Awkward (Sincere)
  Composure (Manners)
  Here we are at the fated land
  I will make it end (Will you watch me end?)
  
  Oh, round and round we go
  Holding onto pain
  Driven by our egos
  Feelings untold
  Spinning our own
  Versions of the past
  That you could never know
  Cause I know
  
  I must be the reason why
  You have given up your smile
  And the hope inside your eyes
  Have been stolen
  
  I must be the reason why
  You must tell me all these lies
  Wishing you a better life
  Without me by your side
  
  The message has already been said
  Through patches of violet
  
  How much we must have diverged

  Goodbye (Hello)

  Driven by our egos
  Feelings untold
  Spinning our own
  Versions of the past
  That you could never know
  How would I know?
  
  I could be the reason why
  You were able to be kind
  And the hearts we held so tight
  Won’t stay broken
  
  Love must be the reason why
  I still believe in this lie
  That you’ll live a better life
  Without me by your side
  
  The message has already been said
  Through patches of violet
  

Character Promos

• Yi Sang
  Yi Sang: I am Yi Sang. My name is all I have to say. To take interest in the outside world is not quite a delightful thing, dear reader. It is because the outside is unideal. However, even if you were to question me about what is ideal - I have little confidence that I could come up with an ideal answer.
  Within the mirror it is mum. The looking glass is only useful as a window to its reflected world. It is like a mere plaything otherwise.
  ...All I will say, is that it was not ideal.
• Faust
  Faust: It's Faust. A genius with whom you're lucky to cross paths even once in your life. I'm sure you have a lot of questions, Dante. I can provide an answer to most of your curiosities. If you seek she who holds the answers, Faust is the name to remember. ...No, let me restate myself. Not just most. All of them.
  When will I ever feel satisfied? Will I ever find it? That moment in time in which I'd be willing to remain forever - relishing the zenith of fulfillment. Does such a thing truly exist? Will I be able to accept what awaits?
  The only thing I can do...is simply chase after the star.
• Don Quixote
  Don Quixote: I see my time has come! I am Don Quixote! Do you carry a dream, Manager Esquire? Verily, I do! I shall bring about a world where justice prevails! Does this not pique your curiosity? Come, there is no cause to dally. Join me, Manager Esquire, and we shall - (Mmrrh, mmmph!)W-Who dares to seal my lips!
  What... What is this obscene sight unfolding before my eyes? ...Nay, this cannot be true. This foreboding vision must be a vile trick - by malevolent villains in attempts to deceive my eyes!
  Yahoo! Rocinante! Gallop on! We will tilt at our enemies!
• Ryoshu
  Ryoshu: Tell me... What do you think is beauty? For me... There ought to be many answers, but the thing that occurs to me right now... Hmm... I suppose it'd be SANGRIA. It allows me to communicate my designs in little time. Ah, SANGRIA is... “Succinct abbreviation naturally germinates rather immaculate art.” That's the meaning.
  What took you so long? Check this. The ability to do my homework with such grace... It's something only I possess. What do you say... Isn't the abbreviated human form a sight for sore eyes?
  It's Ryōshū. Shūre's nice to meet ya.
• Meursault
  Meursault: Meursault. Please refer to me as such, Manager. They are difficult to understand. They shed tears, saying they lost money... And they would chuckle after a visit to the theatre... They seem so eager to express themselves... Nevermind. That was a pointless anecdote. It was a waste of my energy.
  Shrill cries that tore at the eardrums and mercilessly beat upon my ears. From the second column on the left to the fifteenth column on the right, eyes shined at me. Eighty-nine index fingers and eighty-six throats pouring grief, fear, hate, revilement on me. Questions shaped from various emotions smothered my breath slowly.
  ...The sunlight was just overwhelming, that's all.
• Hong Lu
  Hong Lu: My name's Hong Lu. I hope we can get along well. Wow, and look at you! Isn't that a fascinating head you have there? So this sort of pastime is popular these days, is it? How interesting~ I must say, it's a feast for my eyes. Oh, to be clear: I'm not interested in getting one for myself.
  Well, my family wasn't really anything out of the ordinary. Life is more or less the same for most, isn't it? Criticizing the family chef's side dishes. And getting scolded by yéye for being a nuisance to the people who dress you.
  ...Yes? Was something I said strange?
• Heathcliff
  Heathcliff: Name's Heathcliff. Clobbering people is my specialty. Course... Only when I fancy it. Complicated words are a bit naff for me, clockface. And I hate being irritated even more. I don't have a brass farthing to my name. Nor a way with words, better to speak with your fists. So, don't be too surprised when you see some blighters decked before your eyes. You hear me?
  Point is, you can't trust the folks who're rolling in it. I hadn't a coin to my name at birth. Yet those damned pigs still sniffed out and nicked what they could.
  ...And now, I'm taking back what's mine. I'll crush everything if I have to. That way - I can see Cathy again...
• Ishmael
  Ishmael: If you please... Call me Ishmael. Are you the manager? I look forward to working with you, if that's the case. I hope you'll use me where I'm needed. Ah, only for matters relevant to work, though.
  I wonder, on that hellish voyage... Was I really the only survivor? Flitting from Office to Office, obsessively taking requests - And exploring the Outskirts... Maybe I was hoping that I'd be wrong.
  That's right... If that bastard is really dead... I might have nothing left to chase after.
• Rodion
  Rodion: Hiya~ I'm Rodion. I have a longer name, but that makes things look cold, so just call me Rodya~ Say, Dante, d'you like money? I'd say it's my fave. Other than that~ I do like booze, meat... and lotsa other stuff. But all that can be bought with cold cash, can't it? Huh? I should be more frugal with my money? Gee, aren't you stingy~ Nothing wrong with spending a lot if ya earn a lot... You'll lead us to that fortune, right, Dante?
  I wish I could undo things as easily as you can earn back lost money. No matter how much I try to make up for what I did, I can't seem to go anywhere.
  Mhm... Sure's cold. I just wanted everyone to feel some warmth...
• Sinclair
  Sinclair: Hello... I am Sinclair... Is there anything else I need to say? I've never worked for a company before. ...What would he have said here? No, Sinclair, you shouldn't rely on him forever. It's gonna be... okay for me to think by myself, right, manager?
  What was I supposed to do? There was nothing I could've done. Everything got ruined before I could do a thing. Right, all I can do...
  Is skewer that ■■■■■■■ with a stake and—$#^$^%^%—straight in!
• Outis
  Outis: My name is Outis. I hope you'll remember it well, Executive Manager. Your ability to command others is nothing short of exceptional, Manager. I, Outis, swear to serve as your aide-de-camp with due and dutiful loyalty. Whatever orders you may give, I shall accomplish. I expect that you will lead us wisely with sensible orders at all times.
  When I first set out, this was meant to be an odyssey. It had a destination, and I reached it, too. Then, all that was left was to depart homeward bound. ...And yet.
  ...I still have moved not a step from there, even now.
• Gregor
  Gregor: Mm... It's Gregor. Well, feel free to talk to me unless I'm asleep. What is it, manager bud. Interested in my arm? What, you want one? Nope...? Then why don't you keep that annoying head away? This might surprise you: But I'm not keeping this thing around 'cause I want to.
  That sight again... That scenery full of things I don't want to see. One I can't so much as choose to turn away from. When I was there...
  ...Just what was I supposed to accomplish?
