真珠楼（Shinjurou）
Pearl Tower

Anna Evans golden folks

Japanese

これでもう私　あなたのものデス
そしてあなたは　私のもの

身動きできない
スペルバウンド
抱き合ったまま
生まれ変わる？

人魚姫なら
助言しそうだ

「叶わぬ夢も、醒めなきゃいいの」

どんだけブザマに
もがいていても
揶揄えばいい
好きにするから
Alive…

抱かれた夢は　儚く消えた
乾いてるのは　オレの隙間サウンド
触れようとすれば　いつも掴めない
囚われてゆく楼

罠にかけていい
傷つかないフリ
真珠のように
無垢なマヤカシよ

Trap kiss kiss me
ずっと待っている
揶揄うように
泡に消えて逝くの？

夢見てるように
甘い瞳に
魅入られている
目を逸らせない

「ずっと一緒にいて」
「助けて…」と言う
君の術中にハマったらしい

待たせて悪い
海の底まで
探しに来たよ
真珠の在処

深い神殿　潜ってくように
キミの叡智に触れてみるから…

As I miss raw street pass the dimm street lights stay
Cool and psychosis man state corrosive
Bodies disappear with my deadly dosage
Know this, everybody’s gotta meet the maker
Devil’s lieutenant many man′s soul taker
Vicious and sadistic twisted bone breaker
Sometimes I wish that they called me the baker
My name is on the cover of your local paper_[7]

巻きつく腕が　ヤケに華奢だな
揺れているのは　キミの好きな唄
触れようとすれば　いつでも冷たい
好きだと言えば　泡になる？

抱かれた夢は　儚く消えた
乾いてるのは　オレの隙間サウンド
触れようとすれば　いつも掴めない

囚われてゆく楼
罠にかけていい
傷つかないフリ
真珠のように
気高い瞳oh

Trap kiss kiss me
深く裂いていい
絡まるように
泡に消えて逝こう

English

And now I_[1] belong to you_[2]
And you_[2] belong to me_[1]

I can’t move
Spellbound
As we hold onto each other
Will I be reborn?

If it were the Little Mermaid
She’d probably advise

“Even if the dream won’t come true, you can just never wake up”

No matter how unsightly
My struggling is
You can just make fun of me
Because I can do whatever I want
Alive…

The dream of being in your arms faded away in a moment
The sound of my_[3] cracks drying up
Whenever I try to touch, I can’t get hold of you
Trapped in an illusion_[5]

You can set up a trap
Pretending not to be hurt
Like a pearl
It’s a deception_[6] of purity

Trap kiss kiss me
I’ll always be waiting
As if to make fun of me
Are you going to disappear into the foam?

It’s as if I’m dreaming
Your sweet gaze
I’m captivated
I can’t look away

“Stay with me forever”
“Save me…” you say
It seems I’ve fallen into your_[4] trap

Sorry for making you wait
I’ve come searching for you
Down to the bottom of the ocean
Where pearls are

As if diving down to a temple in the deep
I’ll try to understand your_[4] intellect…

As I miss raw street pass the dimm street lights stay
Cool and psychosis man state corrosive
Bodies disappear with my deadly dosage
Know this, everybody’s gotta meet the maker
Devil’s lieutenant many man′s soul taker
Vicious and sadistic twisted bone breaker
Sometimes I wish that they called me the baker
My name is on the cover of your local paper_[7]

The arms around me feel ever so delicate
Swaying to the sound of your_[4] favourite song
Whenever I try to touch, you feel so cold
If I say I love you, will you turn into foam?

The dream of being in your arms faded away in a moment
The sound of my_[3] cracks drying up
Whenever I try to touch, I can’t get hold of you

Trapped in an illusion_[5]
You can set up a trap
Pretending not to be hurt
Like a pearl
Your noble eyes oh

Trap kiss kiss me
You can cut me deep
Like we’re entwined
Let’s disappear into the foam

Notes:
The song uses different pronouns to show the changing POV and while I had to take a few liberties with the English (since you can’t just skip out pronouns in like in Japanese) the ones with footnotes are the ones that were in the
original lyrics. The implication is that the first verse/chorus is Towa’s POV and the second is Fujieda’s.

[1] First person pronoun “watashi” used, which is used in the game by Maya (not Towa).
[2] Second person pronoun “anata” used, which is used in the game by Maya (not Towa, with Fujieda he uses “anta”).
[3] First person pronoun “ore” used, which is used in the game by Towa (and also Fujieda).
[4] Second person pronoun “kimi” used, which is used in the game by Fujieda when speaking to Maya (not Towa, who he refers to with “omae”).

[5] The word is pronounced as “illusion” in the song but represented by the character for “tower” in the written lyrics (like in the title).
[6] The word for “deception” used (mayakashi, written in katakana) contains Maya’s name (in contrast to “towa” being used in after all).

[7] Sampled from the additional rap verse in a cover of the Queen song Under Pressure by Moscow City Groove Machine.
