INSANITY is one of the few songs that are mistakenly attributed to Dir En Grey, despite being from another band.

In this case, the song was created by Vasalla, a Japanese rock band that existed even earlier than Dir En Grey. At one concert during Dir En Grey's early days, they covered this song. More specifically, this happened on September, 1997, on the last date of the Dir en grey presents MAZOHYST OF DECADENCE SHOW tour at Meguro Rockmaykan. At the same concert, they also covered 親愛なるDEATHMASK by 黒夢 (Kuroyume) and X by X Japan, both with Vasalla. There exists a live recording of Dir En Grey's INSANITY cover, but it's only available to tereko traders. However, you can listen to the original version by Vasalla here.

Dir En Grey would later provide background vocals for Vasalla's 月神~Artemis~.

Lyrics
Japanese	Rōmaji	Fan-Translation
じりじりとにじみ寄る屈折　妄想　逃げられない 身動きもとれずに焦り　はむかえば鋭い痛み 鼻を突く腐臭は熱くて　耳鳴りは頭を溶かす ふりそそぐ痛みの中で　微笑めば楽になれる ふっ切れた体は軽く　流れ出た凝血まとい 痛みさえ快感に変わり　溢れ出る欲望満たせ 狂え　叫べ　おもうがままに 笑い　殺せ　虫けらのように 歪む時の狭間の中で　萎えた体　血を求めている	Jirijiri to nijimi yoru kussetsu　Mōsō　Nigerarenai Miugoki mo torezu ni aseri　Hamukaeba surudoi itami Hana o tsuku fushū wa atsukute　Miminari wa atama o tokasu Furisosogu itami no naka de　Hohoemeba raku ni nareru Fukkireta karada wa karuku　Nagaredeta gyōketsu matoi Itami sae kaikan ni kawari　Afurederu yokubō mitase Kurue　Sakebe　Omou ga mama ni Warai　Korose　Mushikera no yō ni Yugamu toki no hazama no naka de　Naeta karada　Chi o motomete iru	The distortion slowly blurs, drawing near　Delusion　Can't run from it Being unable to move I become impatient When it bites back there's a sharp pain The pungent rotten smell is hot　The ringing in my ears melts my head Inside the pain that pours down on me　I can be more at ease when I smile My cut up body is light　Clad in blood clots that came leaking out Even the pain changes into pleasure　Satisfy the overflowing desire Go mad　Scream　To your heart's content Laugh　Kill　Like a worm Inside the warping intervals of time　My weakened body　Wants blood
