Dark Wood Circus

Dark Wood Circus

The sound of the forest, deep within, that circus
森の音、奥の奥にあるんだ、そのサーカス
Mori no ne, oku no oku ni arunda, sono saakasu
The ringmaster, with big eyes and a high voice - ten meters
座長は、大きな目に高い声 - 十メートル
Zachou wa, ookina me ni takai se - juu meetoru

The cast is all cheerful, their shapes are strange
キャストはみんな愉快、形は変だけれど
Kyasuto wa minna yukai, katachi wa hen dakeredo
But it's so much fun! The circus in the dark woods
とっても楽しいんだ！暗い森のサーカス
Tottemo tanoshiinda! kurai mori no saakasu!

A two-headed sideshow, a deformed songstress
二つ頭見世物、異形の歌姫に
Futatsu atama misemono*, igyou no utahime ni
Eating cold things, the blue beast
冷たいもの食べるの、青い獣が
Tsumetai mono taberu no, aoi kemono ga

I wasn't born to be desired, this body
望まれて生まれてきたわけじゃない この体
Nozomarete umarete kita wake janai kono karada
Why are you looking at me like that, my face rotting away
なんでそんな目で見ているの 顔が腐ってく
Nande sonna me de miteiru no kao ga kusatteku

'It's painful, so painful, I can't bear it,'
苦しいよ苦しくて仕方がない」と
"kurushii yo kurushikute shikata ga nai" to
She said, yet this circus continues
彼女は言ったんだ それでもこのサーカスは続くんだ
Kanojo wa ittanda soredemo kono saakasu wa tsuzukunda

It's fun, it's fun, this circus is fun
楽しいよ楽しいよ このサーカスは楽しい
Tanoshii yo tanoshii yo kono saakasu wa tanoshii
Decaying body, melting eyes, reflecting the festering skin
腐った身 とける目に ただれた肌が映るの
Kusatta mi tokeru me ni tadareta hada ga utsuru no

I want to die, I want to die, please let me out of here
死にたいよ死にたいよ ここから出してください
Shinitai yo shinitai yo koko kara dashite kudasai
'It's impossible,' someone seemed to say
それは無理なこと」と、誰かが言っていた気がする
"sore wa muri na koto" to, dareka ga itteita kigasuru
