jade sun

my scorched heart is feeling a buzzing sound
a telephone that wasn't ringing I wanted to stare at it

soon I turn the street corner where the two of us often saw films
together with the midsummer colours I recall that time

the midsummer sun my feelings piled up on the seasons
the wind that flowed past I can never reach you

I looked at you who had burst into tears it seemed so usual
only staring at you I could do nothing

A fragrance I don't know is it about that guy?
I didn't even notice the way you were already

after five years time are you happy with him?
at Teramachi, a chance meeting for some reason my heart aches

the midsummer sun my feelings piled up on the seasons
the wind that flowed past I can never reach you

a cold sun changes to a new colour
I cannot hide my scars colouring a new season

I can be wounded I am wounded people hide their scars, but
I myself will cross over, and show scars that become beautiful flowers
next eternity
An important thing " " A memory

    General Comment:"Kyo: Yes. And then that guitarist formed a new band and that girl was staff for that band. And we would meet a lot when we played together and such. That was so, so painful. Again and again I truly felt like I was going to die. At that time I wanted to escape that so there was nothing to do but find another girl."

    Holy *shit* can I ever relate to the emotional implications of that. Plus a similar situation :(

    However... there is actually a rather beautiful and poignant 'light of hope' in this song, right near the end: "I can be wounded I am wounded people hide their scars, but/I myself will cross over, and show scars that become beautiful flowers." Yes, you've been hurt, yes you've endured pain and hardships, received wounds from them and some might still be healing--but they don't always have to be badges of shame.

    I mean, the song itself can be see as taking pain and making it into something beautiful. Call me sappy but I feel like Diru does this with ... well, almost all of their songs of this nature: it channels a pain so intense and makes it into something almost beautiful, no matter the subject matter.

    General Comment:That's pretty messed up. No wonder kyo doesn't think to highly of people in general. By the way Shishido, you're full of shit. You have no ways, you're fantasizing.

    General Comment:From an interview in 2003:


    Was that because you knew you hadn’t made friends?

    Kyo: There were no people who I wanted to be friends with. There wasn’t even anyone I thought was cool that I knew. Or, well, there was a girl I was dating in Kyoto. I think that was the biggest cause of the problem. At that time that girl was more important to me than bands. I thought I would have to stop bands and get a normal job. This same person that’s here right now thought that! (laughs) That’s a really big thing when you’re talking about me.

    Having heard your story about your past I understand what a big decision that was.

    Kyo: Yeah. At that time I was still in a band and I was friends with the guitarist. But right around the time I was thinking about quitting the band and getting married, the girl suddenly disappeared, really suddenly. I asked everyone around if they knew where she went. But they all responded, “No, I don’t know.” Only the guitarist would talk with me about it. He was like, “Well, it will work out.” For about a week I was constantly talking to this guy about it. But the girl didn’t come back. Then a few years later I found out that that guitarist had been seeing that girl. I felt very betrayed. And from then on it was like “I give up on people.”

    To the point that you couldn’t emotionally recover?

    Kyo: Yes. And then that guitarist formed a new band and that girl was staff for that band. And we would meet a lot when we played together and such. That was so, so painful. Again and again I truly felt like I was going to die. At that time I wanted to escape that so there was nothing to do but find another girl.

    General Comment:This song is so sad... I can't find words...
    What I've heard it was Kisaki who stole the girl. He left La:Sadies or Kyo kicked him out of La:Sadies when Kyo found out. And then Toshiya started in the band but they changed name to Dir en grey. I think that the girl was REALLY stupid, I mean... who can leave Kyo for Kisaki? KISAKI?! And who can make Kyo so sad? I bet this still hunts him... I want to hug Kyo TT____TT
    But it was kinda good that she left him (don't be mad it was sad also and she was REALLY stupid!), because then Kisaki was replaced by Toshiya, and I mean.. Toshiya is like.. the bassking! And look how long they've been together, 10 years!
    GO DIR EN GREY!!

    General Comment:Something about losing or stealing a girl? IDK the beat was kinda upbeat to be about something that sad. Well it's sad to me atleast.

    General Comment:Kisaki actually said in a recent interview that the guy might have been him (he was rooming with kyo back then)... Though when the interviewer said 'REAAAALLY', he said, and I quote: "No, maybe not. But I think I know who did it."

    ...Kinda makes you wonder how many girlfriends Kyo had stolen...

    General Comment:@sakura chan

    I feel about the same about the hugging... Sometimes I just think that, well... it´s the women that cause them (men generally) so much harm... esp Kyo it seems (eto...)... so I kind of really want to hold him tight just for a while to show him that there are women who are... of the ´healing kind´.

    Haha, that sounds odd.
    Whatever.
