    You just cannot escape x2
    I turn around
    And see someone's empty eyes
    Staring back at me
    Right through the darkness
    I clawed my way out
    And tonight you will feel
    Heavy raindrops smothering
    Stained with blood and filled with insanity
    They're running down my cheeks
    There's no, no place to go
    I'll burn it and never turn back anymore
    Take my fingers, run away
    Take these fingers, long decayed
    Doesn't matter what you say
    I will take you anyway
    To the forest dark and cold
    Where cicadas sing their songs
    About how everybody dies,
    How this ends when they cry
    You just cannot escape x2
    It's gloom in the hallway
    The blue flames are going out
    One by one
    Seems like the morning
    Won't bring us the sun
    It was left in the dark
    Countless hands are after me
    In reflections I see their deformities
    I sense the creeping fear
    Come on, lure someone here
    So we can, so we can both disappear
    Hear the sound of clapping hands
    And the rumbling of my steps
    Doesn't matter how fast you run
    We have only just begun
    I will chase you to the trail
    Where cicadas scream your name
    No matter how you try
    Your voice fades when they cry
    You just cannot escape x3
    You just cannot escape x2

      Darius Watako - Hinamizawa Newcomer Then again, she kind of ruined Shion's life by tricking her into swapping places before getting the tattoo... And that was BEFORE Hinamizawa Syndrome kicked in on anyone. Sheesh.

  • @JayWalkerOnline
    @JayWalkerOnline 8 лет назад +182

    Now it's time to figure out what he meant when he said, "Take these fingers run away. Take these fingers, long decayed."
    Because it's either an odd way to say "take my hand," or he's legit saying "TAKE THESE FINGERS I CHOPPED FROM THE HAND OF A CHILD MANY YEARS AGO. RUN AWAY."

    • @JayWalkerOnline
      @JayWalkerOnline 8 лет назад +28

      Because he's not saying "take _my_ fingers," he says "take _these_ fingers".

      @elisabethheiman2104 6 лет назад +11

      Jay Walker Well, he says "Take _my_ fingers, run away," at first, but then says "take _these_ fingers, long decayed." So I don't know, but I think he means take my hand. Regardless, I gave your comment a like because it made me laugh.

    • @IchCharacter
      @IchCharacter 5 лет назад +2

      Seems more like a reference to the dam construction manager who's hand was still missing 5 years later. The whole song seems to be from the point of view of one of the victims and it would kind of fit. Don't know the precise lyrics, but this one definitely feels like that.

    • @daikirijekuto9161
      @daikirijekuto9161 5 лет назад +3

      I think the fingers thing was talking about the hammering fingers from one of the chapters.

  • @AniGaAG
    @AniGaAG 9 лет назад +23

    Okay... listened to quite a few other covers by you.
    But - I can't help but think this is your masterpiece. Like I said in the other comment... the original carries a really intense feeling of "Why is there nothing behind my back...!?" with it, that feeling the entire Higurashi story carries so strongly.
    And... really, I am still impressed as hell by how perfectly you captured that feeling, and the lyricism is amazing as well; knowing the Anime, I constantly get reminded of certain things by certain lines, and that is eerily awesome.
    Hell, you even got the backwards "nigerarenai" _(that "hanni hanni hare hi")_ right, indicating further that you know the Anime in question and are able to write proper lyrics for its opening.
    ... seriously, this IS your masterpiece ^^
    And now I'm done WoTing. :)

    Dude, this cover is SWEET.
    Subcribed without a doubt.
    Is there an intrumental to this that you have handy? The music alone is awesome enough, but your vocals complete it perfectly.
