38.5°C - (Inspired by kagerou's "sekkyou 38.5°C") Earlier, I'd read a short story on someone visiting one of those gas tanks they had at the Nazi concentration camps, and I suppose this might be, metaphorically, referring to that. The 'heat' is the pain entering the body, and 'she' is like... well... I don't exactly know how to describe it, but maybe like a delusion or something to that effect.

High - (Inspired by vidoll's "Haiiro Toiki") I typed in 'haiiro toiki' into an online Japanese English dictionary, where two of the results I got were 'high' and 'worship'. I This poem/these lyrics are about a person getting a drug overdose, going to the extreme high--seeing the Diety--and to the ultimate low--Death.

Moon… Alienation… Reality - (Inspired by Mucc's "moumoku de aru ga yue no sogaikan") Uh, I guess, to summarize it, it's a masturbating werewolf. I hadn't intended it to be that way...

Break Away - Used 'ta have a friend like that. She changed quite a bit, though.

Astral Projection - Ever get that feeling? Yeah. Anyway, Break Away and Astral Projection, in my personal opinion, sucked. I think it's 'cause of the lack of music.

2 = 1 - This poem and the two following it were written around May, so they're a bit old. Anyway, this one is about how two people are as different as black and white in the day, but are both 'gray' during the night. I suppose this poem/these lyrics talk of bondange/S&M.

Musicbox - The original title was orogu-ru, which is Japanese for 'musicbox'. Well, there's a J-rock band by the name of orogu-ru, but I haven't heard any of their music... I think this one might've been while I was thinking of Malice Mizer, 'cause it sure reminds me of them, and a friend or two of mine think so, too.

love & hate - I think there was this one book I read, I forgot the title, but it was where all these weird things were happening at this one school, and the main character finds out the two transfer students were vampires, and at one point, one of the vampires feeds on a wee doggy. I think kitties are cuter.

M:a:s:k - (Inspired by a bit of text written on one of Chibigon's [.com] arts [I believe]) Besides the fact that Dir en Grey has a song by the same title (without the colons), this was written in about two seconds for one of my blog layouts featuring Kami (moment of silence, please. *sniffle*) from Malice Mizer, made in early June (screencap can be accessed here: ). I guess it talks about a person with multiple personalities opening the door to a room with a mirror in it and having a conversation with him/herself.

Song Built on Sand - (Inspired by Dir en Grey's "Syoku Kurenai") I'd failed trying to write to Dir en Grey's "Fukai", so I tried again with "Sajiyou no Uta", and got this. I guess it talks about a person committing suicide at a deserted beach. Originally, the first time I downloaded this song, it was incorrectly titled as Sajiyou no Uta... which means approximately "Song Built On Sand", so... yeah.

Carnival - (Inspired by +D'espairsRay+'s "Carnival") I'd read the translations to the lyrics a long time ago at Invasion Dream [/dream], and the only thing I remember from the translation is "deformities". Then, I just added in some stuff from what most carnivals/circuses are like. This poem/these lyrics make... some sense.

Sweet Crimson Honey of Mine - (Inspired by Dir en Grey's "RED...[em]") - This is about a guy who has his first girlfriend and is trying to do the right thing, but either the girl's an illusion, hallucination, spirit, or demon, I haven't decided which. So then he's really depressed about his first romance failing, so he commits suicide. Yup.
