Hades: The rise
Yousei Teikoku Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
真実は甘く実るばかり
幻想に居場所を奪われて
現身の部屋も翳るばかり
尖った指の先で
抉った胸が疼く
現実は風が 吹き荒ぶ檻の中で
独り視る夢なのか
全て浚われた跡に何が遣る?
握り締めた手にひそめた
幽かな記憶
絡み付く糸を摺り抜けても
踏み出した脚を囚われてる
囓った指の先で
綴った終のコトバ
消滅に怯え 泣き叫ぶ檻の中で
姿の無い悪夢に
全て奪い取られたら何を遣す?
握り締めた手に隠した
僅かな希望
罪と罰の支配裁く革命
生に背く魅惑苦楽悪性
苛烈 破滅 破裂 ハデス覚醒
罪裁く刺客九の惑星
亀裂 死滅 熾烈 カオス剥製
血を頒つ美徳喰らふ弱性
罪と罰の支配裁く革命
死に渇く憂鬱罪の抑制
現実は風が 吹き荒ぶ檻の中で
独り視る夢なのか
全て浚われた跡に何が遣る?
消滅に怯え 泣き叫ぶ檻の中で
姿の無い悪夢に
全て奪い取られたら何を遣す?
握り締めた手に託した
確かな奇跡
The lyrics of Yousei Teikoku’s song Hades explore the questioning and uncertainty of the meaning of existence. The first stanza speaks of how even if one deciphers the meaning of their existence, truth is always just a bitter reality. The second stanza describes the sense of being trapped in an illusion, losing one’s place, and the physical confinement of a room. The image painted is one of pain and longing for something more.
The chorus speaks of the fear of disappearing and being left with nothing, in a dream that may just be a reality. The verse following the chorus talks about the struggle of breaking free from some tangled thread or strings, only to have one’s feet still caught, unable to escape. The lyrics speak of wanting something more than this tight confinement that creates a suffocating environment.
The next verse after the chorus talks of the fear of disappearance and how one would face a nightmare that had no trace of their existence. Following this, the lyrics speak of revolution and the rebellion against the ruling of sin and punishment, the allure and agony of life, and the awakening of Hades with vengeful intent. The final verse reiterates the fear of disappearance and the unknown, speaking of the unknown fate and the trusting of a miracle that's yet to come.

@Tia Gen Their music could be 40 years older, but Yousei Teikoku with Yui-sama and Tachibana are still amazing.
