Diamond Virgin

  Lyrics & Music by yasu

You didn't gaze at me with the purest eyes
Nor did you give me an innocent smile
Before I knew it, you were appearing in my dreams
An indulgent naďve sort of neurosis
Where closing my eyes makes me feel dizzy, kill me
I'm falling in love like the accelerator's stuck and the brakes don't work at all
Carve the pain of living into my flesh[1]
Hold me tight, hold me close, I'm going mad
The adoration, the pain, I can't make it stop [2]

The maiden Diamond Virgin
Glittering, flickering, my heart throbbing
Right now, my very soul wants you [3]
You're the only missing piece...

Without pulling you close and playing around [4]
Without even coming near you[5]
I know I can't be pure
My voice is explaining things clearly, I'm aware of my smoldering thoughts
Abandoning all my tactics and lies, I embraced you strongly
Bathed in silver, I was thirsting within my soul, for those falling tears [6]
Profusely blooming, these many blooming flowers
If they were to wither, the world would end, and I couldn't stand it

The maiden Diamond Virgin
Glittering, flickering, my heart throbbing
In tears, a slight fever, and jealousy
This violently blooming passion [7]

The hidden feelings I carry are revealed in my dreams [8]
Just the selfishness in my heart that keeps me from being able to part with you...

I don't have the words to explain...I beg you, touch my soul...

The pain is carving itself into my living flesh
Hold me tight, hold me close, I'm going mad
My passionate obsession won't stop

The maiden Diamond Virgin
Glittering, flickering, my heart throbbing,
In tears, a slight fever, and jealousy
This violently blooming passion

The hidden feelings I carry are revealed in my dreams
Just my selfish heart that wants to pass by you...

[1] There's a little bit of wordplay here, on the word koibito. Written a different way, it can mean a significant other...in this context, meaning that he wants her so badly in a romantic sense that it hurts physically.
[2]Just a little rephrasing, as I think that this is probably implying that he's trying to stop his thoughts but can't.
[3] This could be a pun on tomete iru, ‘to be falling', in this case, in this deep sense of love and/or lust.
[4] “Playing around” meaning for the express purpose of sex.
[5] As in, leaning in closely for a kiss
[6] The word used for falling here is also used in the word for a trap; so this implies that he was trapped by the sound of her tears falling, in this case.
[7] Here, the phrasing used implies that there is a shame involved with the intensity of his passion; at least that it has gotten to the point where he is crying over not having this woman for himself, and that he becomes feverish with jealousy.
[8] For revealed, the phrase for the stripping of clothing is used, a throwback to the obviously sexual leanings of his fantasies.
