虎視眈々 - Laito, Shuu, & Ruki

Hurray, another Diabolik Lovers song! This one seems quite different from their others, which generally contain at least some noticeable level of instrumentals. I kinda feel dirty liking it, but it's still a good song, and it was fun to translate with the English that's mixed in. Some notes:

  • The title 虎視眈々 is read as "Koshitantan" and is generally translated as "Waiting to Pounce."
  • This is the first and only song I've ever heard where Ruki sings. In all other songs he only does monologues. I wonder why, since he's actually a good singer.
  • I don't think this song has a single mention of blood or sucking, but the guys still make it pretty obvious what they want.
  • I laughed as I was translating Laito's middle finger line towards the end, the image of him basically saying "fuck you" to the others and running off with Yui.
  • The single spoken line of dialogue near the end wasn't written in the lyrics, but I was able to understand and add it here because the exact same line is in Mr. Sadistic Night.


不安除くyour voice
甘くとろけたノイズ
脳内暗示 like a sweet candy

偉大な愛の暴動
計画なき犯行
生命の猛威 gimme your candy

二人きりだけの世界
what do you wanna do?重なる live
キミの息 侵され  we can fly...

受け入れて完全なCRIME
there's no lies 裸の愛

魅惑 1,2,3, キミを単純に
奪い去ってしまう衝動 理性との共謀
CAN YOU FEEL もっと感情に
強く触って壊して 乱 RUN 乱

キミと 1,2,3, ずっと eyes on me
speed up 止まらない鼓動 キセキとの共存
CLOSE to me もっと深くに堕ちて down...

健全な存在証明 必要なんてない no way
欲しがっちゃう意味 I MY ME
甘い甘いCANDY

震え止まんない症状 禁断のアレ そう more
全身の歓喜 let's start! you and me

迸る視線のバイブ
鳴り響く野望のチャイム
キミに触れ その瞬間 over drive

「いらない全てはいらない」 なんて言わないで
you could be mine

誘惑 1,2,3, キミが最高に
連れ去ってしまう頂上 飛び越えた想像
ride on me さぁ you're going to be
共に果ててしまうまで down...

向かう先は all the night
手にするタイム so 甘い
きらびやかな日々
意味 ギミー その candy
震える生命 and daybreak
we stay  永遠 game

手に触れたその瞬間 気付いて
交わる心(おもい) 始まる in your way
繰り返し目を合わせた先で
弾け飛ぶ世界は in my way
キミを手に入れる そう it's time
中指を立てたこの合図

「終わらせるわけないだぞ」

魅惑 1,2,3, キミを単純に
奪い去ってしまう衝動 理性との共謀
CAN YOU FEEL もっと感情に
強く触って壊して 乱 RUN 乱

キミと 1,2,3, ずっと eyes on me
speed up 止まらない鼓動 キセキとの共存
CLOSE to me もっと深くに堕ちて down...

***

The apprehension having left your voice
A deliciously alluring noise
An idea swirling within my mind, like a sweet candy

This great rebellion of love
An utterly spontaneous crime
The fury of your existence, gimme your candy

A world for just the two of us
What do you wanna do? We shall live side by side
Your breath sweeping over me, we can fly, fly, fly...

A perfectly flawless crime that you shall endure
There's no lies, just a love so pure

This captivation 1, 2, 3, the desire to simply
Steal you away, a conspiracy coinciding with your sense of reason
Can you feel, this growing surge of emotions
Let it break you as you feel it deeply within, (riot) run (riot)

Here with you 1, 2, 3, now keep your eyes on me
Speed up this never-ending beat, a wondrous synchronicity
Close to me, continue to fall even deeper, down, down, down, down, down...

Proof that you're living a virtuous life, there's certainly no need for that, no way
This meaning that you seem to desire, "I MY ME"
Like sweet, sweet candy

Stricken with an unrelenting trembling, a forbidden tenacity, and there shall be more
This feeling of delight throughout your entire body, let's start! You and me

The vibe of your outpouring gaze
The chime of this resounding sense of ambition
The moment we touch, I'm sent into overdrive

Don't try to tell me that "you don't need any of it"
You could be mine

Such temptation 1, 2, 3, this peak of undoubtedly
Stealing you away, my imagination positively soaring
Ride on me, that's right, you're going to be
Going until the very end with me, down, down, down, down...

Our destination now is "all night"
This time we share is so sweet
Positively dazzling day after day
The meaning of it all, gimme your candy
Your trembling existence, and at daybreak
We'll stay forever in this game

The moment that our hands touch, now realize
Our feelings collide and begin anew, in your way
Our eyes having met time and time again
And now the world shall burst open, in my way
Seizing you for myself, yes, it's time
This middle finger I've raised is the sign

"There's no way I'll let this end now"

This captivation 1, 2, 3, a desire to simply
Steal you away, a conspiracy coinciding with your sense of reason
Can you feel, this growing surge of emotions
Let it break you as you feel it deeply within, (riot) run (riot)

Here with you 1, 2, 3, now keep your eyes on me
Speed up this never-ending beat, a wondrous synchronicity
Close to me, continue to fall even deeper, down, down, down, down, down...
