“Euphemia” is the third track on Area 11’s debut album All The Lights in the Sky. It was originally on their EP Blackline, but was later remade, cutting out the long intro and placing it at the end of “Vectors” instead, and adding an acoustic bridge.
This song is about the anime Code Geass: Lelouch...
[Verse 1]
As I looked into the burning sky
A tear forming in my eye
Memories of fallen dreams
And all those that have died
Demons are possessing me
Robbed of my eternity
A cloud of ash that pierced the night;
I feel my hate take flight
[Verse 2]
I’m choking on my own words and
I’m scared of backing down
Because the hope within us all
Is up in flames
Twisted by my warring conscience
The situation’s pushing onwards
Genocide, forever taints your name
[Pre-Chorus]
This can’t be, was this me?
I think I’ve lost control
I caused this, I forced this
Can I continue on?
I have caused this, I have forced this
I caused this, I forced this, I caused this
[Chorus]
もう おしまい だ。(Mou oshimai da)
Betrayed by trust, forever left to scream
Oh, hold me closely and die in my arms
And then take this secret with you
And then take this secret with you
[Verse 3]
I became your puppet master
As you stared into my eyes
Then stood and watched in horror
As you ordered them to die
This could fuel the revolution
This could be my last solution
And all good victories come with a price
[Chorus]
もう おしまい だ。(Mou oshimai da)
Betrayed by trust, forever left to scream
Oh, hold me closely and die in my arms
And then take this secret with you
And then take this secret with you
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
もう おしまい だ。(Mou oshimai da)
Betrayed by trust, forever left to scream
Oh, hold me closely and die in my arms
And then take this secret with you
And then take this secret with you
Just take my secret with you
