少女病 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

「どこにでもあるような幸せな家族。
国中に漂う不自然なまでの魔女への信仰にも、
どうにか順応して...」

貧しいことなんて笑い飛ばせる眩しい家族【famile】
小さな家桜草【primevere】の咲く暖かな小庭【jardin】

咲く花のように綺麗な顔した

フランとレスター両親の自慢だった双子

人見知りのフランチェスカレスターの背を離れずに

「お兄ちゃんなしでは、村の外にも出られないんじゃない?」
からかわれて頬膨らませた優しい春の日

「御機嫌よう、みなさん。
幸せな日々をお過ごしのところごめんなさい。
じゃ... 終わりにしましょう?」

「全てが引き裂かれたのは突然のこと。
たった一人で現れた魔女は彼らの言葉を待つこともなく、
愉しむように両親を殺し、そのまま双子を連れ去ろうとして...。
眼前の凶事を受け入れることのできない少女は、
ただ虚ろに叫び続けていた」

「嘘... いや... いやぁぁぁぁっっ!!」

眼下に広がる血と血の逢瀬は思慕の跡を
命絶たれても尚描き輝く
稚拙な御伽噺だと信じた "絆狩り"は
突如前触れなく光を壊した

何の音も聞こえない自分の声も
彼女は全てを拒絶するように叫び続け――――

遥か蒼穹の空へと撃ち鳴らすのは
虚構求め揺れる心の警鐘か...?

「ねぇ、煩い。お前はもういいや...」

「囁く魔女は、叫ぶフランチェスカに刃を向ける。
けれど刺し貫かれるその刹那、
レスターがその凶刃を己の身を呈して受け止めて...」

「妹だけは、こいつだけは助けてやってください。殺すのなら俺に...」

いつだって後ろにいて
いつだって守られて――――

自分も怖いくせに小さく震えてるのに
どうしてなの? いつもみたいに
瞳を細めて安心させるみたいに
笑って背に庇い続けてくれたのは――――

「フランチェスカは、
兄の手から流れ出る血に再び深い衝撃を受け、声を失ってしまう。
まるで、この瞬間の悲鳴で一生分の声を発し尽くしてしまったかのように。
その光景を嬉しそうにみていた魔女は、
兄であるレスターだけをその場から連れ去って...。

少女の傍に残されたものは、
寄り添いあって倒れ伏す両親の死体と、血の香りだけ」

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "Recollection" by 少女病 (Shoujo Byou) and tells the story of a family who was happy despite their poverty until a witch appeared and destroyed their lives. The first verse describes the family as being happy and content, even though they were poor. The second verse describes the parents and their twin children, Fran and Lester, who were always together. The third verse describes the moment when the witch appeared and killed the parents in front of their children. The last verse describes the aftermath of the tragedy, with Fran losing her voice and Lester sacrificing his life to protect her.

The song starts by setting the scene of a happy and content family despite their poverty. In contrast to the eerie and unsettling tone of the music, the lyrics describe a picturesque scene of a small house surrounded by warm gardens and blooming flowers. The children, Fran and Lester, are described as beautiful and the pride of their parents. However, the tone of the song quickly takes a dark turn as the witch is introduced. The witch indiscriminately murders the parents and attempts to kidnap the twins, and Fran is left traumatized and speechless.

Overall, the lyrics are a powerful and intense story with a lot of emotion and imagery. The contrast between the idyllic family life and the sudden tragedy is stark, and the loss of innocence and the trauma of violence are palpable.
