[English]

Breath is silent

Lost in the scent of darkness

"Will you notice me?"

My heart beats pace up

Beyond my gaze, there's an anomaly

If our eyes meet, I can't look away

Can't run

You can't escape anymore

You'll fall for this charm, it's terrifying

Shouting voices echo, surprised

These chills won't stop

I'll steal your heart away

Bra ta ta ta, girl, are you OK?

We're getting serious

My heart is racing

This unstoppable heat

Sneaks into your heart

We're getting serious

I won't let you escape anymore

Give me that, give me that, give me that

Tonight

I'll steal it

Eyes on me in the night

Shout, shout, more louder (Scream)

Eyes on me in the night

I'll make you tremble

Eyes on me in the night

Shout, shout, more louder (Scream)

Eyes on me in the night

I'll make you tremble

Don't blink

Sleeping Midnight

A shadow floats in my mind

You're starting to notice...

You're drawn to me

You'll be mine before you know it

There's no turning back

Can’t stop

I can't look back

I want to destroy your normal

That's the reason for my existence

These chills won't stop

I want to steal your whole world

Bra ta ta ta, girl, are you OK?

We're getting serious

My heart is racing

This unstoppable heat

Sneaks into your heart

We're getting serious

I won't let you escape anymore

Give me that, give me that, give me that

Tonight

Don't be scared

It's useless to run

Your world is already dyed (in my color)

You must have noticed, but why?

Don’t look away

Look at me

You’re already mine

We're getting serious

My heart is racing

This unstoppable heat

Sneaks into your heart

We're getting serious

I won't let you escape anymore

Give me that, give me that, give me that

Tonight

I'll steal it

Eyes on me in the night

Shout, shout, more louder (Scream)

Eyes on me in the night

I'll make you tremble

Eyes on me in the night

Shout, shout, more louder (Scream)

Eyes on me in the night

I'll make you tremble
