僕はある時　何かに包まれていた IN SIDE　HUMAN VOICE 時をばらそう　ちりばめた現実 OUT SIDE　HUMAN VOICE 君はありふれた感覚を信じるの? IN SIDE　HUMAN VOICE 花の中で生まれた　非現実 OUT SIDE　HUMAN VOICE 君が壊れる　バラバラにしてみようか? 幾度となく続く夜は君の為に… 色づけた君だけに　舌舐めずり 見せて欲しいよ、と　こんな僕は… ANTI ART Unknown…Despair…a Lost 色づけて混ざり合うその時だけ 優しくなれた 毒舌を好む君　アメと鞭を くれてやろうか 眩暈誘う　夢心地　エゴイストは 君であるべき　こんな僕は… ANTI ART	Boku wa aru toki　Nani ka ni tsutsumarete ita IN SIDE　HUMAN VOICE Toki o bara sō　Chiribameta genjitsu OUT SIDE　HUMAN VOICE Kimi wa ari fureta kankaku o shinjiru no?

INSIDE HUMAN VOICE An unreality was born within a flower OUTSIDE HUMAN VOICE Would you like to see it broken to pieces? The night goes on and on for you… I could change your color, just by licking my lips I want you to show me that I'm… ANTI ART Unknown…Despair…a Lost A blended meeting of changing colors He gently passed that moment alone You, you like dirty words Should I give you a stick and some sweets? This sleepy, selfish state of mind, calls out dizzily And you should be, like me ANTI ART

Trivia

• On 「楓」～if trans…～ Mechanism For Leave -Unknown…Despair…a Lost- ～裁きの血舞台～ (1998), this song was denoted as a "demo version", although the music video on the VHS uses the same version as on the JEALOUS single.

Title

• This is the only known Dir En Grey song that was performed with a different title before being properly recorded and released. It used to be called 刹那.

Lyrics

• The words at the beginning and end weren't included in the printed lyrics. Fans jokingly misheard them to be 栽培野菜 (saibai yasai), which means "cultivated vegetables".
