This is their first song with a male vocalist! A man known as SUI who hails from the visual-kei scene. I’ll be real, I was worried at first. There’s this other circle, かちかち山, I really loved their early stuff but then they got a male vocalist and their vibe changed and it hasn’t been the same since, so I low-key feared that happening here. Fortunately, I couldn’t have been more wrong. SUI does *kisses fingers* an absolutely amazing job and really hits a home run on this one, so hopefully they bring him back a few more times in the future whenever he’s not too busy with his solo stuff.
Pretty cool song, basically the King dude goes head over heels for Julienne because he had a thing for Lucienne all along as she was the only woman who ever opposed him, which turns him on greatly. Lyrics down below and I’ll see you next time.
(yeah the booklet has シンフォニー as the furigana for 交響曲)
Lyrics and composition: リゼ
Vocals: Rena, SUI
umareta sono toki kara kono yo wa watashi no tame
daremo ga koume utae hirefusu
ano onna dake wa
Ever since I was born the world has bent to my will
everyone lowered their heads and bowed to me
except for that woman
nikuki akuma ni kokoro wo sasageru you ni
kanjou wo kakushita mama anata wo mitsumeteita
As if offering my heart to a hateful god
I've always hidden my true emotions when meeting you
sono hitomi hara sashi suki tooru kami ano musume wo miteiru you de
[itoshiki omae ga nozomu no nara sasageyou]
those piercing eyes and clear hair look so much like that other girl
"My dear, I'll give you anything you want, all of myself"
sasayaku kotoba wa anata dake he no shinfoni shikkoku no bara wo soete
tsukurareta sono kotoba mo kamen goshi no monogatari
these whispered words are a symphony only for your ears, accompanied by a black rose
these carefully crafted words slipped through my mask
yomareru serifu wa arifureta gensou bakari de
these words I've composed are nothing but a fantasy
majiwaru yubisaki futatsu no ai kasanerareta chigiri no naka de
[toutoki anata wo kokoro kara aishiteru] to
taking your hands with love (for my sister) and promising
"Your highness, I too love you from the bottom of my heart" and so
sasayaku kotoba wa anata dake he no sinfoni shikkoku no bara wo soete
tsukurareta sono kotoba mo kamen goshi no monogatari
these whispered words are a symphony only for your ears, accompanied with a black rose
these carefully crafted words slipped through my mask
sasayaku kotoba wa anata dake he no sinfoni shikkoku no bara wo soete
kawasareta ai no kotoba mo kagami no naka no monogatari
itsuwarazaru koe ni
these whispered words are a symphony only for your ears, accompanied with a black rose
These confessions of love are stories in the mirror
From voices filled with falsehood
