Requiem Currents
Pre-note: My lyrics have a very unusual flow and sound to them. This is because when they are turned into music, they will be song in languages OTHER than english, so the english version is just a base coat.
Current of Requiem
Days grow old
The night of tomorrow collapses into the dawn of today
The silence, the noise, the recollections
The sun grows old and the sun grows new
The cycles continue and rejuvenate my soul
You wear a sad mask of foolishness
A contradiction to this story
A silent youth without a voice
Victim to the destiny of the chosen bait
A vision of beauty
In a world were beauty is forbidden
You are a mistake in existence
The disgust you feel is proper, though
In the mirrour the silence is broken
In the reflection you see the way it really is
In the midnight you see a token to freedom
In the morning you see the sorrow you’ll never lose
Fall into abandon, ignoring the truths
Fall to the world of sin and decay
Fall to the mystery of Alice and Madames
Enter the world of magic and darkness
Say goodbye to the world you once embraced
Oh, goodbye now, my adorable boy
Hello nighttime, fall into view
Silent moonlight, sing your soft song
Sing so softly the sins are melted
And The sad boy becomes his true form
The singing angel
Crushed by sins never committed
A key, long hidden, a truth long broken
The puzzle falls into place
You are broken, you are healed
The curse of the loving bite
Fall into one ecstasy, dear
Say hello to the longing of death
Follow the lines, become mine
Somewhere, the shadows end
In my arms you are forever safe from harm
This isn’t the end, this isn’t the time
This isn’t the truth
Fall into the light, fall into the night
Say hello to yourself
This is not goodbye, this is not hello
This isn’t your epilogue
The pages will turn, the story will be
Forever writing itself
The conclusion, the farewell
The endless goodbyes
All is useless, all will end well
In the pages you will write

I say Hi to you, nice to meet both you and these gothic lyrics. What are the languages you're going to sing them in? Do you have the Sp version? If you do and it's all right with you, I'd like to take a look at it.
So, this is me or they are about an optimistic flirting with suicide? I know, I know... Too many questions.
I'm not sure about the connection between the "me", "the boy" and "the singing angel". Is "me" Death itself? If so, why does it try so hard to sound so alluring, when, according to its own description, the broken boy is hopelessly broken? I only can explain it by death being attracted to infinite failure and sorrow. Like summoning up death by means of certain actions people who fortunately are not familiar with it often like to perform, which range from visiting the cemetery and lying inside someone else's coffin to wearing red eyes and trying to look pale. I love this style.
As you may appreciate, the foregoing words attest that I am completely blank at this. I don't understand it at all, though I find it extravagantly dark and romantic. I like that. Please, guide me to its meaning.

Well, there will be two releases. The Japanese versions will be "default" but I will also want to release "real" versions, which will be written in the language of each individual character.
As for the meaning, this song doesn't revolve around a specific character, but is a prologue to the the story all my songs and stories are rooted into.
The first stanza (I think that's the right term.) Refers to the invisible main Character, the Bara no Mitsukai (the Angel of Rose), who watches the events in the world below, gaining strength and wisdom (Rejuvination) from the experiences of others.
The second Stanza refers not to anyone specifically, but it could be seen as a reference to my Character Rika, a young boy who later becomes a girl, (this "transformation" being his sad mask). However, the falsities, victimizing, and predetermined destiny are elements of each characters life.
The third Stanza refers specifically to Rika, being a boy of wonderous beauty raised in a town where beauty in a male is frowned upon.
The Fourth Stanza refers to Cyan Vangel, yet another character in my story, who is an angel cursed to live on the earth after being attacked by a vampire. The truth he sees in the mirrour is the curse he must endure. And midnight is his only freedom, stripped away in the morning.
Fifth Stanza once again CAN apply to Rika, but is more related to all the characters (Alice is the only character not cursed by sorrows, and the Madames (Wolfe and Arachne) both come into the characters lives at one point or another.
Sixth Stanza refers to Anges Heigyl, an orphan who watched his only friend (and father in a sense) be killed. the sadness he feels through his life is genuine, but it also masks a darker side to him that is shown in his own story.
Seventh Stanza refers BACK to Cyan Vangel, and gives a hint to him being relieved of his curse.
Eighth Stanza is the only part of this song "spoken" by characters. The First half, of the "loving bite" is whispered by the Vampire of God, while the calls of Death are, obviously, said by the Angel of Death. "follow the Lines" refers specifically to the fact that this is an unescapeable destiny.
Ninth Stanza refers to the Character Mark Stienz, the Character who is on trial in Purgatory for destroying the Gate of Death, and Killing the Vampire of God. He is in love with Alice, and his actions are a way of protecting her, since Death and the Vampire both Fight for her affections and eternal love.
Tenth Stanza to the Twelfth Stanza are the unspoken words. The words that only He who Sees the unfolding of History can say. Basically, the final worlds are the redemption from despair. For all hardships and sufferings that must be endured in this dark point in history, their will be relief. Not happiness, but relief.
