NOISE (song)

NOISE (ノイズ, NOIZU) is a vocal song featured in Fatal Frame IV: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse. Whereas "Zero no Chouritsu" is the image song of the game, "NOISE" is the main ending theme. It is the second song contributed to the game by artist Tsukiko Amano, and can be heard during the game's Easy mode and Normal mode endings and credits.

The song was later released on November 24, 2008 as a part of Amano's latest album/compilation also titled NOISE.

Lyrics

Japanese

思い描いては　かき消してたその横顔 あなたをまだ憶えていたい 世界が果てても 私の蕾は咲き乱れて　形もない どんな色に染まっていたかを 忘れてしまった 満ち欠ける光に　想いを束ねて あなたに続いてゆく わたしがいなければ　あなたは両手を 翼に変えてゆけた 揺れる無意識の中　沈む胸を手繰り寄せた 無数に散らばる　あなたを集めた 二度と逢えないなら　この身体に刻み付いた あなたを知らない　わたしに戻して 忘却からの　ノイズが響く 縺れた夢路は　この身体を蝕んでく 私はまだ憶えていたい 小さな痛みも あなたが迷う日は　答えをあげたい そこから出られるように 許されぬ罰なら許さなくていい あなたを見つめている 揺れる無意識の中 沈む胸を手繰り寄せた 無数に散らばる　あなたを集めた 幻と消えてく　想いならば その調べで 白く染め上げて　零へと戻して 満ちかける光に　想いを束ねて あなたに続いてゆく わたしの永遠が　あなたの心に 芽生えを起こす日まで 揺れる無意識の中　沈む胸を手繰り寄せた 無数に散らばる　あなたを集めた 二度と逢えないなら　この躰に刻みついた あなたを知らない　わたしに戻して 虚ろに当ってゆく意識の中　残骸だけが 美しく光り瞬き始める 幻と消えてく　想いならばその調べで 白く染め上げて　零へと戻して 忘却からの　ノイズが響く。

English

"My blossoms have grown rampant, there is no shape left.

I have even forgotten

What color it was they had taken on.

I gather up my thoughts in this shifting light

And continue on to you.

When I wasn't there, you could change

Your two hands into wings

In trembling unconsciousness, I grabbed up my sinking heart

And gathered the countless copies of you scattered about.

And if we shall never meet again, then I'll turn myself back

To that self engraved in my body that doesn't know you.

From the oblivion, a noise echoes out.

My body goes to ruin on this twisted dreamer's road.

I want to keep remembering

Even every little pain.

I want to give you answers when you're lost

And get you out of where you are.

If it's an unforgivable punishment, you don't have to forgive it.

I'm gazing right at you.

In trembling unconsciousness, I grabbed up my sinking heart

And gathered the countless copies of you scattered about.

I'll fade out with the illusions, just like you want, and on the edge,

Stain me white, send me back to zero.

I gather up my thoughts in this shifting light

And continue on to you.

Until the day my eternity begins

To sprout in your heart.

In trembling unconsciousness, I grabbed up my sinking heart

And gathered the countless copies of you scattered about.

And if we shall never meet again, then I'll turn myself back

To that self engraved in my body that doesn't know you.

In consciousnesses fading into one another, the rubble

Begins to shine with a beautiful light

I'll fade out with the illusions, if that is your will, and on the edge,

Stain me white, send me back to zero.

From the oblivion, a noise echoes out."
