Dazai
Dazai, Come down!
Won't you get up off,
Get up off the cliff?

You're scaring us and all of us.
Some of us care for you.
Dazai, it's not much but there's proof.

You suicidal maniac,
Remember your virtue!
Redemption lies plainly in truth!

Just humor us, Dazai!
Dazai come down!
Won't you get up off,
Get up off the cliff?

*Beauty is played*

That body is not weightless,
Nor whole and unbroken.
Remember the pact of our group.

Where you went,
I followed.
So just jump and I'd jump.
Since there was no me without you.

Venture on Dazai!
Dazai come down!
Won't you get up off,
Get up off the cliff?

Loathe the way I can see the thoughts of your own
But love the way I'm corrosive
Bleed and laugh but don't suffer alone
Engage with the pain as a motive

Today of all days
See
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above

Dazai,
Dazai,
Dazai,
Jump now

You are absent of cause or excuse
So self-indulgent and self-referential
No audience could ever want you

You crave the applause
Yet hate the attention
Then miss it,
Your act is a ruse

It is empty, Dazai,
So end it all now
It's a pointless resistance for you

Dazai,
Dazai,
Just put down the bottle

Don't listen to what you've consumed
It's chaos,
confusion,
And wholly unworthy
Of feeding
And it's wholly untrue

You may feel no purpose
Nor a point for existing

It's all just conjecture and gloom
And there may not be meaning, so find one and seize it
Do not waste yourself on this cliff

Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
Chiming away for a moment
Feel your breath course frankly below
And see life as a worthy opponent

Today of all days, see
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above

Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

You want the acclaim, the mother of mothers
(It's not worth it, Osamu)

More poignant than fame or the taste of another
(Don't listen, Osamu)

But be real and just jump, you dense motherfucker
(You're worth more, Osamu)

You will not be more than a rat in the gutter
(So much more than a rat)

You want my opinion, my opinion you've got
(No one asked your opinion)

You asked for my counsel, I gave you my thoughts
(No one asked for your thoughts)

Be done with this now and jump off this cliff
(Be done with this now and get off this cliff)

Can you hear me, Dazai?
I'm talking to you

I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you
I'm talking to you

Dazai, come down

Dazai, come down

Throw yourself into the unknown
With pace and a fury defiant
Clothe yourself in danger untold
And see life as a means to a triumph

Today of all days, see
How the most dangerous thing is to love
How you will heal and you'll rise above

Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
