Tragic Puppet Show
music: Aci
lyrics: Dada

Every night in my attic room
I fall asleep together with you

You, who gave my a lovely dress
While you stroked my hair
I'll sing you a lovelylullaby,
More beautiful than any other

Maiban yaneurabeya de
anata to issho ni neru

watashi no kami o nade nagara
kirei na doresu o kureta
anata ni utatte ageru
dare yori suteki na komoriuta

Oh Gods, hear my prayer
A promise in glassen eyes
Secret thoughts cradled deep in my chest

kamisama onegai kiite
garasu no hitomi no chikai
hisoka na omoi o mune ni hime

At the sill a single crow
Prods the dress and laughs
Look at your own reflection

[You've only a human form]

madobe ni ippiki no karasu
doresu o tsuite warau
kagami no jibun o miru ga ii

[hito no katachi o shiteru dake]

I'm nothing but a pittiful jointed doll
If you're not here Ah...
Just a doll, can't go anywhere on my own
You held me close in a dream I saw

Eyes covered by jet black plumes

watashi wa aware na kansetsu ningyou
anata ga inakereba Ah
doko ni mo yukenai ayatsuri ningyou
anata ni dakareru yume o mita

me o fusagu shikkoku no hane

I'm nothing but a pittiful jointed doll
If you're not here Ah...
A wretched doll, in human form
You held me close in a dream I saw
Ah Ah Ah Ah

watashi wa aware na kansetsu ningyou
anata ga inakereba Ah
mijime na hitogata ayatsuri ningyou
anata ni dakereru yume o mita
Ah Ah Ah Ah

Dada posted these lyrics on his mixi
(which I think it's okay to talk about now that he's changed his name to "LOOK AT ME I'M DADA"
Not that I was stalking him or anything. Ashiato, ashiato~!
But someone mentioned they were there, and someone asked me to translate,
so I broke my 3 years of mixi avoidance and took a look (>_<)
I don't like mixi. They're anti-foreigner and the Kahoru Kohiruimaki commyu was Gay Only.

...I'm not maimiku with Dada btw. I'm afraid to be *lol*
So there might be more lyrics up there
But I figure if these were open to the public, then they're OK to translate.
He's always free to tell me to take them down if it's not okay after all
