Song Scrapbook

This page was heavily 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.

This is by no means a comprehensive list and currently only features songs written in English.

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
    

Gilded Lily

Go and stretch out my arms
Long as they need to be
Turn off all alarms and lie to me
Go and stretch out my arms
Long as they need to be
Turn off all alarms and lie to me

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
    

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
    

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

GOLD
    

Butcher Vanity

To snap the sinew, I want
To get within you, I want
To not forgive you
Rigor mortis, mold, and mildew
But dear, you should be grateful
That I won't waste a good meal
That all my love's precision
Carves a cut to simply die for
To snap the sinew, I want
To get within you, I want
To scar the tissue
Butterfly and rectify you
I need to be your afterlife
Eucharist, I deify
God, oh, fuck the fork and knife
I’ll rip in hands and teeth and take a bite!
    

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
    

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
    

Shampain

Lay dagger-dead inside a lonely bed
Trying to hide the hole inside my head
Watching the stars slide down to reach their end
'Cause sleep is not my friend
    

Mary on a Cross

We were searching for reasons
To play by the rules
But we quickly found
It was just for fools
Now through all of this sorrow
We'll be riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I never let you go, let you go

You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Not just another Bloody Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a
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
    

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
    

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
    

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
    

Aura

Wait your turn
There's something still inside
Out of thousands gathered
Asking how and why
Caught and tamed
The unexplained
Formed a semblance of their normalcy
And took it to their graves

Watch
Perhaps forgotten
A girl preserved throughout the years
Repainted in the prism past
We're holding hands at long last
    

4 Morant

Past is regret, I'd flash from the gemses
If I didn't care what my friends did
Friends that pretend, wanna end when you get bit
Get slick, get quick, wanna spend shit
Ends with a sniff or a huff or injection
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
    

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
    

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?
    

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
    

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
Open the book
Turn to page 617 — Scientific Witchery
    

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
