- [Batsu To Maru To Tsumi To] SONG LIST
- 01. Ienai
- Can't say, I cannot say
That deep down inside I don't mind if you die now
Can't say, I cannot say
That way you'll have me forever
I cannot say
Can't say, I cannot say
There's no better way to keep you in my mind
Can't say, I cannot say
Cause I know your lips probably won't mind
Sneaky? Am I? The world is full of contraries
Ah, in the world without you I'll finally be who you want me to be
Ah, you hate lies, here's the world perfect for you
Can't say, I cannot say
To you it's weakness but to me it's a fine mechanism of love
Can't say, I cannot say
Don't wanna hear passion die I would rather…
Can't say, I cannot say
What comes next, though I felt it coming from a while ago
Still, the way your face move is scary that I
Can't say, I cannot say
Either way, for sure, I will break you one day
Surround us with thick rule no one can step into
If you cry, if you laugh, it will collapse
What a thought, what a joke
Don't bother, they don't understand, our love will come around with our consent
Love is always desperate, love is not weak
Weak is the dream that love sometimes shows
Can't say, I cannot say
That deep down inside I don't mind if you die now
Can't say, I cannot say
I's because I want to continue to live inside
That little heart of yours
Can't see, I cannot see
Can't erase, I cannot erase
Ah, in the world without you I finally won't get lost
Ah, you hate lies, the world which disappointed you will end today
“Ah, you are not here” woes the world, I don't give a damn
“Good night” - 02. Jikkyochuukei
- Live coverage, we're on the air, thanks for waiting guys
Are we on? Yea yea we are Hello again
I wanna start by introducing my fellow commentator, Mr. God
At age 2011, he's the world creator, a great mentor
A smug look Hail yeah! Thanks for everything You fed us well
Oh I almost forgot, I am yours truly, Budda
Today in our Game of Life, we feature an island in Asia, Japan
Don't miss it cause we are really excited
Let's start by taking a good look at how these fellas live down there
Oh wait, something weird is happening…
Oh my! With a rope in his hand he was about to hang himself
But isn't he shaking? Is he feeling unsure? Isn't it too late?
OK, Camera 3, get up close to his face
His heartbeat is up, can barely hear but listen to what he has to say
“I can't stand it, can't no more, not for a second
What I need is not oxygen, it's not here, not anywhere
You die you lose, so what? shut up, don't care to win, you asshole
Don't talk about the courage to die, blah-blah-blah
Nothing scares me now, I'm almighty
Why talk all that shit?
If you wanna tease me you've made your point
People just love themselves from head to toe
I hate myself again, I try hard to see
Hanging on, I'm alone again
I prayed but it was more than I thought…”
Sorry, we just lost our audio
Our commentary booth is behind the galaxy net
High above their head beyond the sky beyond the space and time
Sit back and enjoy, we're so much higher than where they are
Let's be thankful that their planet isn't ours
My my, oh no, holy moly
Look how far they've come, a million years of dumbness
Producing massive spent fuel waste, piles of dirt
Weapons of mass destruction, nuclear to say the least
Deforms and facsinoma, you can't help but hate even your own child
What a freak, my boy, like garbage, where shall I begin cutting off?
Mr. God, would you give us a word?
To us who's “smart enough to not die but dumb enough to not survive”
We know who we are
Why talk all that shit?
If you wanna tease me you've made your point
People just love themselves from head to toe
I hate myself again, I try hard to see
Hanging on, I'm alone again
I prayed but it was more than I thought
People just love “ME” like obesity
We've watched this Game of Life over the last two thousand years
Can't believe there's no sign of progress
Another flop, my friend, I'll call it a wrap
There's no choice, helpless, incurable, not worth talking
Oh look! There's someone in her knees praying like hell
“Oh please Mr. God, Mr. God, Mr. Buddha. Please make my wish come true”
God “So what will we do?”
Bud “Wait”
God “Let's make it happen”
Bud “Wait, I said”
God “Stay out of it. It's none of your business”
Bud “It is my business”
God “Why? She said Oh please Mr. God”
Bud “She said Mr. Buddha, too. Didn't you hear?”
God “Just once. I was called twice”
Bud “Nonsense”
God “I see. She's your type, right?”
Bud “F—k off! You wanna do it?”
God “Hell yeah! Come, all my followers! Come and meet!
Let them see the power of God!”
Bud “Eat this! The rage of Buddha!”
We know it's all wrong
Why talk all that shit?
If you wanna tease me you've made your point
People just love themselves from head to toe
I hate myself again, I try hard to see
Hanging on, I'm alone again
I prayed but it was more than I thought
People just love “ME” like obesity - 03. Iron Bible
- Oh how I wish the rain that got me a cold yesterday
Washed down someone else's tears, in a strange karma
Anything and everything I'm OK on my own, I get all the rewards
Do you need a receipt?
No you don't, yes, come here and sit
How dare you make such a remark
Who's to say who owes what from where to where
This world is a overflow with nameless things, tag-less treasures
In a dignified karma it'll all come around
Confession of a lifetime, youth spent worth a lifetime
I know what saved me was the stars at night and a brief rain
It's gotta be, anything and everything
If the world is to end tomorrow
I'll plant an apple tree today, someone says
Then I'll say, I'll write down everything about this world
Make it in time for the new world starting day after tomorrow
Dear all who will live our next world
Let me tell you about our virtues and flaws
Our next world should never end
Please don't break our precious chains
Oh how I wish suppressed anger in the voices
Would add up to feed and nurture love
To what the blue sky demands from us in return
There is nothing we can do, no matter how, like it or not
If I try to repay my debt to all people and things
That made me who I am, it'll take my lifetime
Then I'll plant the seeds given and make them bloom
I'd rather take the risk, what do you think?
You think there's nothing wrong with that, right? then why?
It's not for your eyes to see, won't taste a thing
Secretly stealing, depriving, exaggerating, disgusted, envy
Do you live to repeat? Or repeat to live?
Sad story, who's going to stop your tears from falling down?
Let me plug you eyes
If the world is to end tomorrow
I'll plant an apple tree today, someone says
Then I'll say, I'll write down everything about this world
Make it in time for the new world starting day after tomorrow
Dear all who will live our next world
Let me tell you all about our virtues and flaws
Our next world should never end
Please don't break our precious chains
If a baby were born on the day before the world ends
Still I'll name that child
Smiling baby clad in future
I'll talk to the child until the last moment
If the world is to end tomorrow
I'll plant an apple tree today, someone says
Then I'll bottle a song and throw into the sea
About the new world starting day after tomorrow
Dear all who will live our next world
Let me tell you all about our virtues and flaws
Our next world should never end
Please don't break our precious chains
Please don't terminate tomorrow, don't multiply zero - 04. Reunion
- What's true friendship? I don' know
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care
So this is youth? No idea
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care to know
Can't even remember how we met, we were so careless
If whimsical wind blows we'll blow apart
Never good at getting along, I was hesitant
Then why and how did we come this far?
I guess we looked at things the same way
What felt good and made us happy, indescribable soft spots we shared
Like miracle it was one of the best things
That could have ever happened to me - YOU
What's true friendship? I don' know
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care
So this is youth? No idea
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care to know
Never said “We're friends”, took it for granted
Too shy to admit but now's the chance to say
Get drunk, get bruises all over our bodies, no sense no more
Binge drinking, whiplash next morning, what are we gonna do today?
At 5 a.m. in the morning
Brazen shameless hoochie coochie, a damn good music playing in the background
On the night I vowed to be alone, wait, it will break soon
Don't wanna comply, bark, or settle, I'm always astray but never waver
Sometimes I take their hands, let them decide, can't even say thank you
Broken dream shattered into pieces
It wasn't a silly dream, we believed in it
I know I saw you from the front row, watching how brave you acted
You were more beautiful than you ever were
You were more brave than any time in your life
I was envious of the dream we shared
Although my part was one in a few billionth
For the first time in my life I learned to dream someone else's dream
What's true friendship? I don' know
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care
So this is youth? No idea
But if this isn't, I don't need it, don't care to know
I used to cling onto what I thought mattered
Refusing to let go, clenched my fist tight
But I've changed, that's all gone
I can show you, I can tell you, this is who I am
By tomorrow our bond may disappear
Good enough for us than to hope it's forever
It'll be gone one day, it's a wink and a blink away
Ephemeral pleasure, what a gas, don't care, I'll take you into mine - 05. DARMA GRAND PRIX
- So which side am I on today? The world is all to blame
Babble in victims heaven or be an assailant in an apologizing contest?
The correct answer is the former! Got anything to offer?
I can easily walk pass the world's unhappiest victim
A moving story, tears running down, a blockbuster of all time
Congrats, you guys, but whose tear are you talking about?
How much longer do I have to talk to a scumbag
Until I can believe the tears of someone I hardly know?
That's my preposition, so I wake up again
But this swimming pool almost made me puke
So gross
Your love and my stubbornness, can both survive tomorrow?
One that survives the afternoon of the Judgement Day is a winner
I don't mind if you hate me
But it hurts to see a puppy bark at me
Flee from insomnia, corpse, pressure, poverty, boredom and anticipation
This world is the reverse replay of Red Light Green Light
Who did what and when, what's wrong, whatsoever
No matter how much you act like you care
Whatever you do, all you do is to feed
Your appetite
So amazing
Your but's and my though's, can both survive tomorrow?
Just for once I want to show my 100% pure self-sacrifice
Your love and my stubbornness, can both survive tomorrow?
One that survives the afternoon of the Judgement Day is a winner
When push comes to shove, victim is the ultimate winner
Consolation game, 3-seconds to self destruction, it's me who laughs last - 06. Gogatsu No Hae
- I won't forgive you, no matter what, I won't
If you were attacked, ripped your clothes off, raped and dumped like trash
I'll skip past you with a big smile humming
I won't forgive you, never forgive you, never ever
There's not a single trace of grief or sorrow
Spoiled child, what a pretty face, what an ugly rotten face
I want to poke you with a fork
Ah I want to see you dead, I want to see your dead body
Ashamed of my ugliness, I hang my head low
Said I'm sorry before I say my name
Lived all my life as humble as I can
What an idiot
When I see you I realize I'm the world's most innocent being
But there's no need for you to be there, and to make sure that I can be kind to myself
I don't need you
I won't forgive you, no matter what, I won't
If you ask for help, stabbed by a random attacker, organs ruptured, splitting blood
I'll jump rope with that ruptured organ listening to my favorite song on headphones
I won't forgive you, never forgive you, never ever
How unfair is this world that there's no law to bring justice to your sin
So I will punish you. NOT, Just kidding you idiot
May all the words I said to you R.I.P.
I want my beloved semen I've release in your body back, please
Pitiful pitiful I could cry
I hate you like the sky so blue, like falling flower pedals, it's self-explanatory
I am, in the movie you play the lead, the mightiest and the worst villain
After turmoil we have reached, I found myself an absolute being
This is how people continues to live, right? You are my first religion
I won't forgive you, no matter what
When your child is old enough to say
“Mom, why did you have me?”
“I wish I weren't your child.”
“I wish I weren't your child.”
“I wish I weren't your child.”
Then, I'll come strutting, hold her gently in my arms and say
You haven't done anything wrong, it's not your fault, not your fault - 07. Saigo No Bansan
- Let's talk about everyday things I don't get to hear these days
Enough about how long till the world ends, tell me what you ate last night
You live in the distance, job well done
Use not just head and right hand, but sometimes your hips
A cracking voice of an old man says “Young people nowadays!”
From centuries ago they've always been like that
What is normal? Where can you find it? Looking desperate and plausible
Hate to say but it's right there, it's the world you believe in
Out of the obvious six billions, 365 dates
I produce, look after and nurture
That one little piece
We want money, they say, never-ending economy
Recession, foreign exchange likely to fluctuate in harmony all around the world
With 3 x as much money to buy out this planet, still not satisfied
Hey aliens! Come collect that god damn money!
Can somebody speak out? That smiling face of yours
Was born from somebody's grief and blooms in somebody's desperation
Shoved away to the corner of the universe, this nameless party
No choice but to proclaim oneself as the weak ones
Out of the correct six billions, 365 wars
I protect, grow and check the right answer I only know
Out of the obvious six billions, of 365 dates
I produce, look after and nurture
That one little piece
Let's talk about everyday things I don't get to hear these days
Enough about how long till the world ends cause it's already ended - 09. Breath
- More than you wish, I'm all yours
Cut me up anyway you like
And take my blood too, one-time offer
Teardrops from the eyes are too good to shed
Save it in a glass, don't let it be a waste
I want to drink it all up
Locked are the tears that are full of all things that make us human
If you touch it will break
If you don't touch it will collapse
I'll watch over you here and sing
To keep a legacy of our great history alive
Words from your mouth drip to the middlemost
I squirm and dodge so that it won't cut deep
Despair, hope, awe, calmness, subtleties, pleasure
Heaven and hell even frenzy, all depends on you
Today I will dance on the palm of your hand
Might as well, a perfect swing
On the land I was blown off to stand I preach love neither too much nor too little
If you touch it will break
If you don't touch it will collapse
I'll watch over you here and sing
To keep the theorems of the universe alive
Hand-me-down kisses, worn-out “I love you”-s
You say you'll cherish and smile
Two lines on your cheek made me respond
So I touched
Before it breaks
And held tight for a long time
If you touch it will break
If you don't touch it will collapse
Still I reach
To pick up all the pieces, was that alright?
I must touch now with this hand
Before it collapses
I want to touch you as a whole
Before you break or collapse, to grow and start
I sing - 10. Perfect Baby
- Coward me, can't sleep with strangers around
But in your arms I'm happy as a clam
Armor my heart with shell to survive
But look, how soft and weak it gets sometimes
I don't mind if you kick me in my teeth and push me around
I'm a blood covered bashful gentleman who sings as if nothings's happened
How about a taste of Pure Land in this living world?
Time and space folded in two, together we go back and forth
I hope your wish comes true even just a little
If not, it's OK I feel that way today
It dropped from your hand, if I could enter…
No need to grieve tonight, what I need is
You, right there! Don't force your value to everyone anyone
Zero score is as good as perfect score
My heart hurts a little so stop asking me
So what? Say what? And what?
How many crossed out names from my life can I recover till I die?
You know how the story goes
To get a perfect score in the test, remember about
One who gave you the biggest check mark to you
I hope your wish comes true even just a little
If not, it's OK I feel that way today
Your wish is like a night before school trip
Excited - in my dream I'm already there
In a half-asleep unscrewed right brain
We go till where we can, till we wake up, please say yes
In a losing sight you'll see, a little bit more to the right
Tangled in umbilical code, you have arrived!
I hope your wish comes true even just a little
If not, it's OK I feel that way today
I won't ask what it was that slipped from your hand
No need to grieve over
I hope your wish comes true even just a little
Might as well wish for the liveliest one
Lively enough to survive unkind words or catastrophe
Lively enough to not give in, never die
Show it to me now - 11. Dreamer's High
- Bravely we give up yesterday's dream and laugh
I hereby vow, resolution for today before I go to sleep
But at times we give today up for the sake of yesterday's dream
And build a platform for ourselves of future
Sensitively we work our antennas to death again
Hate me, I'm used to it, you can't hide, it's a lie
Even murderer and Prime Minister have skills to be loved
It's all around their DNAs, moms seeing them off saying “Have a good day”
Dream + Dream Selfish
Dream + Love Tenderness
Dream + Voice Make it happen
Add all up and remember
Non-stopping girls running boys he'll be there for all of you
Shout it out born it out yah whatever hungry
Blue yellow green purple dream scramble egg, vanilla frost
Running tears scars tissues and insanity as well
Capably we represent voices of this earth today
Self-appointed, recommended, no question asked, unanimous party
Drama and tragedy, all's an act by a sock puppet
Trumpet blowing suicide bombing, hand clapping and laughing
But don't worry, I'm by myself now, all tamed
Don't you worry, our moms and dads are quite popular
For every single day out of 4.6 billion years
They kept making love and thus we are here
Dream + Feather Will reach
Dream + Seed Have died
Dream + Lie Beaten
Add all up, you'll see
Non-stopping girls running boys he'll be there for all of you
Shout it out born it out yah whatever hungry
Blue yellow green purple dream scramble egg, vanilla frost
Running tears scars tissues and insanity as well
Don't stop the rain of destiny
Don't peel the scab of love
Non-stopping girls running boys he'll be there for all of you
Shout it out born it out yah whatever hungry
Blue yellow green purple dream scramble egg, vanilla frost
Running tears scars tissues and insanity as well
Life's not enough, haven't found it yet but I swear I won't give up
Vow not to be disposed, an immediate vow
It's not enough, it's a crap, but it's too good I can't stop
Wish for such anonymous future, a bitter wish
Sadness plus tenderness is peace
Peace plus pain is anger
Anger plus warmth is tears
Tears plus tears means nothing left
Voice plus heart is words
Words plus love is immediate
Add all up divided by us
It's the world we live - 12. Kaishin No Ichigeki
- “You make no difference to us” they always say, what a mean world
If you want to talk don't hide, let me see your face now
How many thousand times more do I have to regret to exceed my own expectation?
If my heart had feet to walk, did I go a different way today?
Letter of acceptance from job interview, letter of rejection as an interesting person

- I declare war against my own child
I know I'll be jealous, yea, I can already imagine
What a lucky little boy to be blood-related to you
Least acting like grown-up I lose my patience and cry
Many questions to ask you, my boy, yet to be born
How was your mommy's tummy? I've never been there
Must've been beautiful, 10 months and 10 days you travelled
So happy and frustrated cause you know things I don't know
Welcome to the new world
From the tummy of such a mighty little girl
For the rest of all my days when I say beautiful, you're beautiful
I'll be always talking about you or your mom, now hey
Welcome to the new world
From the tummy of such a mighty little girl
I can't find a better reason to live for I'm here for…
I'm not gonna say it, no I'll never, I'll just keep it in my arms
He's my child, he can barely walk
But I can't lose this game, I'll play fair man-to-man
No lullaby nor bedtime story
No fairy tale to read you boy
Let me tell you your mom's story before you came
It's a story that no one else told, it's my story
She shattered things into pieces, stirred up troubles
Made my world twinkle with the blinding light
My days before I met her was a trailer of what to come
Your mom's game plan was to make everything her own
I fell right into it, one day you'll understand
It was luck worth a lifetime packed to the full
At the right time and in the right way
It was used
Welcome to the new world
From the tummy of such a mighty little girl
For the rest of all my days when I say beautiful, you're beautiful
I'll be always talking about you or your mom, now hey
Welcome to the new world
From the tummy of such a mighty little girl
I can't find a better reason to live for I'm here for…
I'm not gonna say it, no I'll never, I'll just keep it in my arms
She'll be always mine you better keep that in your mind
Exception will be never made in case of any kind
I kept that oath my very first but you're the one who broke that first
Listen to me; I'll never say twice, I won't tell you much
So be strong not fist more deeper in you
I'll always love you but second to your mom, of course
I can't give it you
Whenever you're in lack of some warmness
Or maybe some time you feel hopeless
There's nothing better to touch
I guarantee you that, little boy - 14. Last Virgin
- When I told her I've never felt anything like this
She acted as she couldn't care less
We didn't meet until now, she says
So, she says, it's perfectly natural
When I asked what she'll do if I die tomorrow
She responded without even looking at my eyes
How will I know unless it happens? she says
She looked a bit angry
Somehow it made me happy
It made me laugh
You are the first
My first time ever, the first and the last
Once in a lifetime, 24/7
There was nobody before or since
When I told her I don't want ordinary life
She responded in her usual tone
I want to be your ordinary, she says
Wish it be like that one day
Ending is the beginning, yes I know
I've always been that way
But ending this is wrong, I don't need another beginning
That's how I feel, here and now
Over and over
I'll write a song to remind me
You are the first
My first time ever, the first and the last
Once in a lifetime, 24/7
There was nobody before or since
Here we make a promise
Our first time ever, the first and the last
Once in a lifetime, right here right now
No more beginning until the end
I've never felt anything like this, she says
That's perfectly natural, I say - 15. Hari To Toge
- Where did I learn this trick?
Hurting people a piece of cake
No one taught me
I rather wanted to develop the opposite skill
Was it my fault? Was it my fault?
In another word it's inherent
It can't be acquired
Then in the same breath
I'm hoping I get away with murder again
Tears in my eyes, what do you want from me?
I'm scared to see the color of it
Please take out the needles of words
Please pull out the thorns of heart
Please pull them out
While I'm anesthetized by your love
The more they hope for happiness
The more I hack
At this stage of the game, for some reason
I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself
Which me shall I be to comfort myself today?
“You're kind cause you noticed it”
Good job! Way to go! A few more nice words
May keep me alive for another night after tomorrow
Give them to me, give them to me
Where are the tears?
Dried up and disappeared before making me smile
Please take out the needles of words
Please pull out the thorns of heart
Let me bleed, let it come down
And paint the world red from above
Let it shower you shower you shower you
Wind which blew inside you
Seed which glowed inside you
Lu lu lu lu lu lu lu
These unspoken words - your
Dream
Please take out the needles of words
Please pull out the thorns of heart
Please pull them out
While I'm anesthetized by your love
Please take out the needles of words
Please pull out the thorns of heart
If your prayer was unanswered
Keep it with you strong and deep
And let it be your glowing seed
