Venus in the dark

优しい贵方の哀しい冲动
私の心引き金を引いた

充电の切れた音
缲り返し闻いたわ…
乱れ行く日々に 爱の梦だけを
见続けていたかったのだろう
冻り付く贵方に背を向け
去って行くのに追って追って来ない気ね
壳に笼もって息を杀してる
なんて无様な姿
降りた女神

なんで何度も爱してると言うの?
私を囲って放さないつもりね

どうせ今顷 隣で女が泣く
その肩を抱いて キスで慰める
その原因など认めない!
美しい私に狂って
踌躇したまま次へ次へ进む気ね
意地张ってても惚れた方の负け
このまま放っていたら
枯れて散るわ

冻り付く贵方に背を向け
去って行くのに追って追って来ない気ね
壳に笼もって息を杀してる
なんて无様な姿
降りた女神
美しい私に狂って
踌躇したまま次へ次へ进む気ね
意地张ってても惚れた方の负け
このまま放っていたら
枯れて散るわ





终わり

Anyway, now there's probably a woman crying next to you, and you're comforting her with a kiss... Without even admitting the cause! You're obsessed with my beauty, yet hesitant to move forward.
