Song Scrapbook
This page was inspired by Diluculo's own song lyrics page and where I will be showcasing some snippets of my own favorite lyrics that resonated with me for one reason or another.
Gilded Lily
Haven't I given enough, given enough?
Haven't I given enough, given enough?
Haven't I given enough, given enough?
Haven't I given enough, given enough?
Always the fool with the slowest heart
But I know you'll take me with you
I know I'll take you with me
Always the fool with the slowest heart
But I know you'll take me with you
We'll live in spaces between walls
EVERYBODY KNOWS I'M SAD
Sometimes the truth is, I wanna leave everything behind
Maybe if I disappear, then the black hole will clear inside of my mind
(As if that's gonna fix it!)
I like to pretend that I'm better off on my own
I spend the weekend in bed
I see none of my friends, so I turn of my phone
(Cause no one's gonna miss me!)
I try to hide it, protect my pride
So superficial, don't realise
I've been so lonely all of my life
Don't know if I can, I can survive
Hard Sell
I'm one deep breath away from a breakdown
My nerves are wrecked and coming unwound
The world is hostile, and I'm fragile and I need
Someone to kiss the cuts and tell me to keep trying
Water the Roses
People come and surely they go
Flowers wilt and surely they grow
Oh, my heart, don't spare me the truth
When I bloom, it won't be for you
I Love You But I Love Me More
Sometimes I felt I was a part of your plan
You're holding me while holding somebody else's hand
I thought we were eternal, I try and hit restart
I watch you take and take and take until I fell apart
You made me think there was a problem with me
I gave you my heart, you gave me anxiety
I'm a vision I don't need you to see
That everything I needed was inside of me
Iron Lotus
I am fire
Burn those who dare to care for me
And my fuel are memories, fuel are memories of you
They perish with the heat, perish with the heat
So I can move on
Flower of iron
Shrivelled up to hide the imposter in me
“Hey, why did you leave? Why did you leave?”
Don’t let those words out of me
Imposter’s about to speak
So I chewed on Huameitang
Evil
See, the horns on my head they're from goddesses
Goddesses, on god
No, I never knew what it meant
What it meant to be content with you
Everything I expressed, I professed
It never quite made it through
Said it's all in my head, all in my head
Whenever I spoke my truth
No, I won't defend you to all my friends
This time, I refuse
If you bite my hand again
I will never feed you, you can call me evil
Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend
I won't be mistreated, please call me conceited
Took me way too long to put this to bed
Lovin' you was lethal, guess that makes me evil, evil
Purge the Poison
I just want a world where I can see the feminine We only make up one-quarter of the government Like an angel gone to hell Cast the moon under our spell Owning female power, taking back what's ours Earth is like a white rose Quiet cloud of petals fold A place so corrupt where Angel flesh and blood is sold The feminine is born as new Started with a diamond dew Solitude was coming, everybody knew Need to purge the poison from our system Until human beings listen Tell me, who do you think you are, are? It's your own decision But your home is now your prison You forgot that, without me, you won't go far, far
weathergirl
I could live to be a hurricane
Turn into a tempest, violent, silent in the eye
All whirling, gusting, wuthering
Could it be enough to change the way you use my name?
Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land
Ancient dreams in a modern land
I'm trying to get back as fast I can
Back to a time before I had form
Back to a time before I was born
You don't have to be like everybody else
You don't have to fit into the norm
You are not here to conform
I am here to take a look inside myself
Recognize that I could bе the eye, the eye of the storm
I am not my body, not my mind or my brain (Ha)
Not my thoughts or feelings, I am not my DNA
I am the observer, I'm a witness of life (Hey)
I live in the space between the stars and the sky
Pyrite Girl
Shining brightly!
There's no one like me!
I’m better than before
Gimme more!
It is my lifeline
Quit asking me why!
'Cause now I know I can be redefined
If I get covered in gold
How unsightly
Why don't you like me?
You know I shine the most
Not to boast!
I’ve broken my mind
One million times
Now not one mark on me is out of line
And I am made of gold
I’ve ascended
Just as intended
It doesn't quench my thirst
I’m the worst!
I’m out of my mind
The perfect design
Nobody can defeat me now that I’m
Completely covered in gold
Oblivion
I never walk about after dark
It's my point of view
Cause someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you
Always coming and you'd never have a clue
And now I look behind all the time
I will wait forever
Always looking straight
Thinking, counting all the hours you wait
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
Little Dark Age
Oh, forgiving who you are for what you stand to gain
Just know that if you hide, it doesn't go away
Language of the Lost
Am I a robot or a doll?
Am I anything at all?
Maybe a soul like me doesn't even need to know
Am I big or am I small?
Hunching over, standing tall?
I lost my identity oh-so very long ago
Software update, reinstall
Scary things I can't recall
Making the best of it, never even knowing why
On my knees, I try to crawl
Fire breaking in the walls
Calling out for somebody, knowing I'll get no reply
Buy the Stars
Oh, we don't own our heavens now
We only own our hell
And if you don't know that by now
Then you don't know me that well
Blow My Brains Out
Lucky is she who lives unaware
Doesn't get bothered by those who don't care
Lucky is she who lives unaware
Who doesn't get bothered by all that's unfair
Unlucky me who knows way too much
Who fights to make changes and music and such
Unlucky me, aware of the pain
All 'cause I happen to have some brain
sever the blight
"Where are you, my lady?"
I've been in the basement
She tied up my ankles
As a mere defacement
It's so charming, charming
He'll find a replacement for me
He wondered what I liked
I see the flowers in his hands
Bluebells and dahlias
Tied with a white ribbon
They are my favorite
I heave a sighing breath (Ha, ha, ha, ha)
Love is miles away
Will I still wait here for you?
4 Morant
I can't handle rejection, stand my reflection
Damn, no one gets it
Should I be kind and remind that I'm weak?
So I fall more behind every week
I'm the 'shine once guys take a peek
I cry from my eyes to my feet
Stairs to the streets, to the gutters, to the sea
...
I swear on my life, I always try
But in my eyes, I can fly
Sigh
Better luck next time
Venus Fly Trap
They'll shame you, blame you, pretend to even hate you
Take away your rights, pacify you with their lies
Whatever you give life, you are gonna get back
Why be a wallflower when you can be a Venus fly trap?
Oleander
You stood beside me when I was out of my mind
I broke the glass and you were there to sweep it aside
And if you leave me
Rest assured it would kill me
I make a mess
And you'll be there to help me undress
I'll be unclean, I'll be obscene
You'll be the rest
And if you leave me
Rest assured it would kill me
Like an oleander
White, white leaves
Of an oleander
White like me
Mary on a Cross
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Your beauty never ever scared me
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Breezeblocks
She bruises, coughs, she splutters pistol shots
Hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
She's morphine, queen of my vaccine
My love, my love, love, love, la, la, la
Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
The fear has gripped me but here I go
My heart sinks as I jump up
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
She may contain the urge to run away
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
Germolene, disinfect the scene
My love, my love, love, love
But please don't go, I love you so, my lovely
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart, hey
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please don't go, please don't go
I love you so, I love you so
Please break my heart
After Dark
I see you, you see me
How pleasant, this feeling
The moment you hold me
I missed you, I'm sorry
I've given what I have
I showed you I'm growing
The ashes fall slowly
As your voice consoles me
As the hours pass, I will let you know
That I need to ask, before I'm alone
How it feels to rest on your patient lips
To eternal bliss, I'm so glad to know
As the hours pass, I will let you know
That I need to ask, before I'm alone
How it feels to rest on your patient lips
To eternal bliss, I'm so glad to know
Headlock
You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock
I don't believe any of it
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock
You know you're better than this
Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock
I don't believe any of it
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock
You know you're better than this
I'm walking, you've been hiding
And you look half dead half the time
Monitoring you, like machines do
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye
I've been walking, you've been hiding
And you look half dead half the time
Monitoring you, like machines do
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye
You know you're better than this
Bloom For Me
You can take your time
But you can't hide
Just say whatever feels right
You can let things slide
You never cry
Anything you feel is right
There is a cord winding around your core
The more you fight the more that you will choke
You can make it look easy
As if you don't feel a thing
Waiting for it like the spring
One day you will bloom for me
Blue
No, I don't love you, no, I don't care
I just wanna be held when I'm scared
And all I want is one night with you
Just 'cause I'm selfish, I know it's true
Gimme love, gimme dreams, gimme a good self-esteem
Gimme good and pure, what you waiting for?
Gimme everything, all your heart can bring
Something good and true
I don't wanna feel blue anymore, blue
When Spring Comes
Is it all in my head?
When I try too hard, I only feel regret
Do you have a clue
How desperately I love—
When spring comes
The world is blooming again
(Yet my tears never seem to end)
When spring comes
We take the air for a spin
(And it kills me to breathe it in)
(Woo hoo!)
You always have an easy time outside
But I cough and sneeze while your eyes stay dry
Oh, why is it such an easy time for you?
When the springtime comes and my heart turns blue
Pathological Facade
Sunday was jarringly redone a faulty illusion
The ending left misunderstood amnesia for a diorama love
Who will I become?
It's a bittersweet utopia
Stars always watching from afar, turning who you are
In the end, it left me delicately scarred beyond pathological facade
Don't you find it odd?
Secretarial speaking
Go on, praise me like a god
Don't you find it odd?
Go on, praise me like a god
Don't you find it odd?
Go on, praise me like a god
Ga1ahad and Scientific Witchery
I've cleared mountains and dungeons
Iron maiden
My Lady has spoken
"Ga1ahad, you will shall never collapse"
So I charged up my lasers
Talila lulila
That makes your bones stronger than steel
Tulila talila
That backs up your thoughts to the cloud
Truth or false
It's the logic that dictates it all
Rising edge ticks the clock
Stimulates you flip-flop
Generate
Oscillate
Let your blood fill the gates
Multiplex
Process registration
Wipe off your pus
Grind down your vitamins
The end justifies the means

Hollow and heartless
Emptiness I can't fix
Somehow I find
You reflect in me
Oh make me in
Your image
Divine light
The way I see you
I want to be seen too
Strip away my
Inhumanity
Oh make me in
Your image
Heart and mind
Labyrinth
East is North and West is South
I feel like I'ma never get out
I'm trapped
See how I circle
Imaginary mind, imaginary lines
Let the maze of my design carry you on
See how I fly away
Queen of Venus
oh, queen of venus, hear my plea
my longing overtaketh me
for blood and body, purity
the heart of your divinity
oh, queen of venus, let me in
where one will end and two begin
i find my home upon your skin
so come and fuck away my sin
Plug Me In
I wanna be a 3D ghost in your dream
The smell of burning flesh and sweat and chlorine
I feel like heavy eyes and drugs and smokescreens
I feel like telling lies and love and morphine
A Human's Touch
I'm just a toy to you, my love
Just a thing to play and
Then throw away
I need a human's touch, but
You don't need me
I need a human's touch, but
I'm obsolete
