[English]
I can't even find a place to breathe
No matter how hard I try to escape
I can't even refuse
I'm trapped in you
If this is love, really
If I loved you
Don’t say these things to me
Her whisper is the Lucifer
The Lucifer
That binds and confines me, even love
If only future and love were free to grow
Just let go and look at it openly
I'll fill only you, with nothing else
Your irresistible magic, Lucifer
Your overpowering spell, Lucifer
Approaching you, with that angelic face
You say I’m the reason I live, saying over and over
The moment I saw you for the first time, I froze in place
As if someone has a tight grip on my heart
And won’t let go (even now)
You take all of my heart, over and over and over and over
Without you, my heart will burn away
If I’m bound and trapped by love
If only future and love were free to grow
Just let go and look at it openly
I’ll fill only you, with nothing else
Loverhollic robotronic
Loverhollic robotronic
The love stories we shared
You, who look at the same place as me
When I felt we could never be perfect anymore
Just look at me, you want me more and more
Look only at me, everything’s about you, you in the center
Somewhere along the way, gradually
It feels wrong, you’re strange
Everyone who knew me, one by one, starts to leave
I only have you now
If I’m bound and trapped by love
If only future and love were free to grow
Just let go and look at it openly
I’ll fill only you, with nothing else
Feeling like I’ve become a clown trapped in a glass castle
Dancing for you, endlessly seeking your approval
Seeing through everything, touching my brain, feeling like a fool
I’m gradually being drawn to you
Loverhollic robotronic
Loverhollic robotronic
It’s not that I hate you, I don’t dislike you
It’s just your gaze that weighs me down
Don’t go anywhere, stay here
I’ve been looking at and waiting only for you
Your gaze captures me
Sharpening day by day
Exhausted by your obsession
Hurt deeply, blood flows in my heart
When I’m about to collapse, you come closer
And say, I love you as if I’m an angel
Who truly were you
It confuses me, making me unsure
If I’m bound and trapped by love
If only future and love were free to grow
Just let go and look at it openly
I’ll fill only you, with nothing else
Feeling like I’ve become a clown trapped in a glass castle
Leave me alone, only then can I truly love you
Seeing through everything, touching my brain, feeling like a fool
Just let me be, so I can truly look at you, without getting tired of it
If I’m bound and trapped by love
And future, I won’t be able to grow

Loverhollic robotronic
Your irresistible magic, Lucifer
