Lyrics

You are now entering completely darkness

Don't need to prepare for it

You just need to die

Welcome, as your experience, searching for your souls

We are...

playing to die



(You are so dead)

(Kill the bass -- kicks)

(You are being taken)

(Move to the bounce)



How much do you hate me now?

That... is not enough

I have [****] you

We will be back to [****] again soon...

Song Connections/Remixes

A long version appears on kors k's Album, Ways For Liberation, and sounds significantly different from the IIDX version.

Trivia

Song Production Information

I feel that this sound is quite typical of industrial music.
This IIDX will be the final one for teranoid.
Thanks for all your support!

Video Production Information

Hello, MAYA here.

This is a bit of a wild video (which does go along with this wild song).

I first drew the boy's head without electricity, but it didn't feel right and added it in with additional flashes around it.
I then drew the boy's expression on his face, giving him a sort of wild but sexy look to him.
I was then inspired by tripping contact, copying some images from that. Even before I made this, I felt these songs were related.
I had the most fun drawing the tongue and lips image.
