Sweet dreams.
I was finally able to cover a Kikuo song!
You guys don’t know for how long I’ve waited to do something by him, I mean, I wrote those lyrics for his other song “Breaking Things” years ago but never got to record it. So yes, this is a a good day. I also just wanna say that if you like this song, you’re gonna LOVE Kikuo and Hanatan’s newest collaboration album because his songs paired with her voice are beyond amazing. Just watch this crossfade of the album! • きくおはな - 【旧】12曲を4分で楽しむ ...
Anyway fangirl-ing aside, I feel like this is Lost One’s Weeping all over again because hoooooly crap those notes. I swore I’d never scream sing again and yet here I am. I’m sure there are also going to be complaints about the lyrics (as if there aren’t always ha) since I had to bend some lines to be singable on long high notes (ya know, that thing, sing-ability ha). So lemme just address those future complaints:
➤ [This I know] is supposed to be [Forever] ➔ I pushed it to the phrase before so I could sing an “o” vowel
➤ “What? [Carry me] isn’t in there??” ➔ You’re right but I wanted to convey the feeling of wanting to be saved and taken away
➤ Why u put [world of the dead]?!! ➔ The original just said “sekai” but again I wanted a singable vowel and add impact of this nightmare world
Ehh there’s more I’m sure but this is such an art song and open ended that I decided to make executive decisions on certain lines. If you’ve got more questions, feel free to fill a bathtub with the original kanji and bathe in it. Kikuo is great, Hanatan is queen, this video is dank yo, have a good time!

--------LYRICS----
Ahhhh Ahhhh
Please anyone, anyone wake me again
Horrid dreams, I couldn’t breathe
In the world of the dead
Carry me, carry me, take from my head
Knowing you’ll surely come for me
Waiting til the end
This I know
This I know
This I know
This I know
On the eve...dark as ink....tonight
I couldn’t leave...not with these feet...not a chance
When will the day invite me away?
I’m still…
Aah Aaah
Please anyone, anyone wake me again
Horrible dreams lying to me
In the world of the dead
Anywhere, anywhere, but where can I be?
Wandering up and down the place
Never one for me
This is know
This is know
This is know
This is know
Will I find anywhere for me to be?
Couldn’t stay, had to leave
There’s just no way for me
I’m hanging from my feet, up in the air, from a string
Ah anyone
WAKE ME AGAIN
Please anyone, anyone wake me again
Horrid dreams, I couldn’t breathe
In the world of the dead
I’m begging you, begging you, find me today
Knowing you’ll surely come for me
Waiting through the grey
Please anyone, anyone wake me again
Horrid dreams, I couldn’t speak
On this star of red
Anywhere, anywhere, but where can I be?
Wanting you more and waiting for
You to come and see
Still as stone
Still as stone
This is know
This is know...
