I really can't do one a day, apparently, I'm too forgetful. So we'll just *cough* PRETEND that I've been doing one a day. *cough*

Anyway

A song supposedly about the selfishness and hidden evils of humanity by Owata sung by Kagamine Len. Listen to the original song link

--ENGLISH--

For what do I sing?
Paradichlorobenzene
I just sing without understanding why
Paradichlorobenzene
Yes, I ran, seeking the answers
Paradichlorobenzene
Though I knew there was nothing out there for me to reach

So let's sing, let's dance
Paradichlorobenzene
So let's scream, let's shout
Paradichlorobenzene
Dogs, cat, cows, pigs, everyone
Paradichlorobenzene
So let's go mad, let's fall asleep
Until we fall apart . . .

I hate rules
I just don't want to be held down
So I run away
Forgetting everything around me
I hate to be told what to do
I want to be a little wicked
I slip out of my house in the middle of the night
And run through the town
"Why am I alive? What's my purpose?"
I asked a stray cat
The cat said nothing in reply,
Just looked at me through spiteful eyes
I drank up some coffee that I couldn't stand to drink
And looked up at the clouded sky
'What am I capable of right now?'
I don't even know that much

So I sing and I shout
Paradichlorobenzene
I scream without knowing the reason why
Paradichlorobenzene
Can you be satisfied with the way things are?
Paradichlorobenzene
Might you change if you tore free from all these rules?

Yes, I'd like to spill my guts to someone, anyone
Paradichlorobenzene
I'll wield justice in the fight against evil
Paradichlorobenzene
With justice as shield my stress melts away
Paradichlorobenzene
As we stop wandering we don't realize
Our foolish deeds

Does this song have a meaning?
This verse has no meaning
Is this song sinful?
This verse is not sinful

Benzene . . . has a meaning?
Benzene . . . has no meaning
Benzene . . . is sinful?
The meaning of this song is . . . Benzene

And then I realize
This is all just hypocrisy, isn't it?
What is my life even worth?
The stray cat drowned to death

I threw away the emptied coffee can
And looked up at the darkened sky
What am I doing with myself?
I don't even know that
I don't know anything anymore

And then you laugh at me
Paradichlorobenzene
And then I shove you away
Paradichlorobenzene
I am right and you are wrong
Paradichlorobenzene
Embraced by emptiness I fade away
Until I disappear

So let's sing, let's dance
Paradichlorobenzene
So let's laugh, let's covet
Paradichlorobenzene
You and me and everything
Paradichlorobenzene
So let's go mad, let's fall asleep
Until we fall apart . . .
