DOZE

music & lyrics / Hazuki

3, 2, 1, a rose-colored countdown
overdosing1 and super high
chemical play, i melt into the sun
let’s leave our sense behind and sing

BLINDNESS2 and SICKNESS

a pleasant feeling, if it’s a black trip3 then i’ll use every day
1, 2, 3, now let’s dance

BLINDNESS2 and SICKNESS


This song suffered some censorship when it was rerecorded for a major release. I’m of the opinion that the original lyrics are the “true” version, so I’ve used them as the basis for the translation, but I’ve noted the changes made for the rerecording below:

1: Written O.D. (overdose) in the original, changed to “open the doors” for being phonetically similar.

2: “BLINDNESS” in the original, “BRIGHTNESS” in the rerecording. Not sure why this needed to be changed!

3: Written ブラックトリップ/black trip in the original, changed to “BLACK and LIP” for being phonetically similar.
