[VERSE 01]
The sad days, can be left behind
The demons that artoment me, I can let them die
La, la, la, la, la, la, la ~
[PRE-CHORUS]
I have an old car, that run so far
And this is everything that I need to go where i want to
I can run, I can fly, I can get out
like a real titan by the stars
[CHORUS]
Oh, my glory days have come
even after so many lost wars
And all my tears shed
form the ice lake which I skate at that moment
La, la, la, la, la, la, ah ~

Rainy days can open up
And I can water the garden I want

but I have no one to call
Sometimes I wanna be like a Michael Jackson
but shit, I forgot my moonwalk
[VERSE 02]
I'm at home, lying on a couch
crying about how uninteresting my life is
sometimes i just forget i'm alive
just watching other people form their rainbows
and here I am, writing about my feelings
[CHORUS]
I want to fall in love,
i want to break a heart,
I want to die in the best possible way,
I don't want a life, but a romance
feel like a real Marie Stuart, yeah
[VERSE 03]
I think I'm dreaming too much,
but if I wake up, I will hate myself even more
I just wanted to be a british girl written by Jane Austen,
but I'm closer to prejudice than pride
[VERSE 04]
I'm at home, lying on a couch
crying about how uninteresting my life is
sometimes i just forget i'm alive
People really forget how human I am
I feel like a Frankestein in a lake crushing butterflies
And it's so bad to feel that way
[CHORUS]
I want to fall in love,
i want to break a heart,
I want to die in the best possible way,
I don't want a life, but a romance

And here I am, writing this song in my room
emerging with nonexistent club lights
There's just me and the music that plays in my head
All I want is to fly out of the window
Living a life I never had

I want to fall in love,
i want to break a heart (break a heart)

{Spoiler}
[VERSE 01]
Everything I wanted as a child,
was to be a queen with a crown and long dresses
without needing some stupid boy to save me
because I prefer to die than that
All I wanted, was to prove to the world my worth
and say it's okay to be different
[CHORUS]
(Days like these) where you need to turn the world around
so that it orbits you
(Days like these) having to give it all
for people to soon destroy you and tear you apart inside
(Days like) a man-made earthquake to make you fall halfway
(Days like these, days like these)
But I'll just keep hoping for the best
[VERSE 02]
Driving in a danger zone,
with cameras instead of pedestrians,
waiting for you to hit something
I have everything, but I believe they don't care
They just open their mouths, when I'm turned back
[CHORUS]

I'll scream for all of you to hear
look who I am, I'm reaching the end of the line
I didn't let you all make me fall

4. National Anthem
Produzido por Apollyon e Reiko Asakawa / Escrita por Reiko Asakawa
Iniciando a linha sentimental do álbum, National Anthem pode parecer um pouco mais dolosa do que as outras apesar de seu ritmo continuar indo ao retro e o synthpop. A música fala sobre estar cansada de ser controlada e de ser o que os outros querem, deixando tudo isso para trás para ser alguém livre. A pessoa é retratada como um tipo de robô humanizado (como o Robocop ou o Human Ex-Machina) na parte lírica da música.
{Spoiler}
[VERSE 01]
Tired on my bed,
my love when will you get home?
I speak with ghosts, because no one else will take me to the dance
and it's midnight
[VERSE 02]
They think it’s easy,
Locking me up and throwing me into the darkness
I'm not the Dorothy that the world wants me to be
I can't come home, I can't reason
why does it look like i live on another planet?
[CHORUS]
I feel different for breathing,
I can't understand my own mind
Imperfect young girl, a perfect robot to live
forget everything today, this is your national anthem
[OUTRO]
(Ten, nine, eight,
doing an upgrade, increasing drive
Seven, six, five
a billion emotions and memories
Four, three, two, one
Be what everyone wants)
[VERSE 04]
Smiling like no one smiles,
when can i stop pretending i'm happy?
I want to run and go after the real me
but it all seems so late ~
[VERSE 05]
I feel like a Martian
Earth, are you listening?
I'm thrown into the dirt,
mistreated even by my own mirror
I want to be a virus, I want to be a rebel
But I can?
[BREAK-GUITAR + BRIDGE]
I want to feel, I want to learn,
I want to feel my body shake until I fall
I want to explode and shoot all over the place
like an american soldier
I just want to run to the exit
I'm tired of being what I am,
so watch me escape, watch me escape
watch me escape (oh)
[CHORUS]
I feel different for breathing,
I can't understand my own mind
Imperfect young girl, a perfect robot to live
forget everything today, this is your national anthem
[FINAL CHORUS]
I feel different for breathing,
I can't understand my own mind
Imperfect young girl, a perfect robot to live

6. Love Machine
Produzida por Apollyon / Escrita por Reiko
Love Machine é a faixa mais farofa animada e dançante dentre as faixas, com uma música mais levada á fazer o ouvinte sair da cadeira e dançar como uma verdadeira máquina. A música tem um belo significado, falando sobre a beleza da mulher e sobre a sua liberdade, podendo fazer o que quiser na pista de dança e com os homens que quiser. Pode-se ouvir vozes masculinas no fundo que não são creditadas, dando elogios em diferentes pra uma mulher. Não se sabe quem é a tal voz mas se teoriza que seja Apollyon.
{Spoiler}
[VERSE 01]
You keep looking at me that way,
I know what you want with me
Don't expect me to fall for that beat,
I don't need someone to dance
I am a wish that everyone yearns for,
the Aphrodite that you will worship, ay
[PRE-CHORUS]
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (hermosa)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (Je suis à toi)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (tan belle)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (ōhala)
[CHORUS x2]
The body glows in the dark, like a true divinity
I don't care about anything else, except the music that plays
I'm perfect the way I am, you'll see it
because I am a true love machine
[VERSE 02]
People keep judging me,
but i don't care because i know i'm better than that
I don't need to prove to you that I'm good enough
'Cause the only thing that matters is if you really want me tonight
[PRE-CHORUS]
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (hermosa)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (Je suis à toi)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (tan belle)
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom (ōhala)

[Verse 01]
What happened?
We've been spinning all this time
but I end up touching myself that you don't even seem to be here
Why dear?
What happened to make us so shallow?
And I remember only the good times when you had your getaway car
[Chorus]
We can stand here and watch the same dramas of Rachel and Ross
Or we can create new good memories
For it is not too late to repeat your seventeen
so why don't we go out and cross beautiful California?
until the sun goes down so we don’t miss Malibu’s hot sun
[Pos-Chorus]
So will you give me an answer?
So that we can finally get out of this house
So will you give me an answer?
So that we can finally get out of this house
[Verse 02 - Norma Claire]
I feel like we lost that magic we had
and now I can't remember the taste of you in my arms
I keep forgetting everything we went through and it destroyed me,
so we should get out of here and enjoy the years that we have left
holding my hands and those memories ~
[Chorus - Reiko]
We can stand here and watch the same dramas as Rachel and Ross
Or else we can create new good memories
For it’s not too late to repeat your seventeen
so why don't we go out and cross beautiful California?
until the sun goes down so we don’t miss Malibu’s hot sun

So will you give me an answer?

[Verse 01]
Tired of feeling alone, tired of saying goodbye
Tired of everything that reminds me of sadness, they make me sick
These fanciful dreams are just lies,
All my lovers, the voices that echo in my ear
they are just shapes that take me seriously
i just need you they will stop showing up
[Pre-Chorus]
Mirror mirror mirror, is it all true?
their promises, dances and fleshy lips
are like a true religion for my heart
I want to believe, that it can exist
but I don't want it if it isn't mine now
[Chorus]
The era of love ~
The era of love, now
The era of love ~
The era of love, now
I want to believe that I can be the beloved girl
and that the age of love has finally arrived
[Verse 02]
So much anguish, how can I proceed?
I feel like I'll be alone every time I look out the window
No, I don't want a prince charming
With a patriarchal suit and a tacky shoe to put on my feet
I want someone to stay with me until the world ends
while he shakes, collapses, with me beside
Mirror mirror mirror, is it all true?
their promises, dances and fleshy lips
are like a true religion for my heart
I want to believe, that it can exist
