[R] gazette || filth in the beauty
i think this song is so game-ost material. i love the melodious female voices occasionally throughout the song & the lead singer's haunting voice. the song is just plain awesome, and so goes for the lyrics. I got the lyrics from this livejournal community page, and the extra info at the bottom as well. =)

Romaji Lyrics
The reverse side of beauty
It dyed by beloved filth.
Genwaku no umi Shizunda hotaru
Hitei wa yokkyuujou no uso
Mujun de somaru taion
Risei wo kaburu aibu ni
Odori tokekomu shun wa fuini
kegarawashiku...
My mind which falls
Your seed and my seed never mixes.
The connection of this blood is eternal.
You cannot finish suppressing the desire.
To true daughter...[Sexual disgrace]
Toiki fusagu myaku utsu 「ue」 wa
Wakari aenu guren wo motomu
Closet mind is distorted instability.
please release me before breaking.
How long...
In humiliation
The countless fatal scar was born.
[Sexual disgrace]
Prohibited bud...
Reckless driving cucumber...
The kin' collapses...
Near relatives on death...
The smell of a cigarette smell breath&shit
Moment that bitter white jam is mixed
Inside of a brain caused an error
and goes mad by the sweet bug [loop]
Kubi wo hawasu shitasaki to te
Nozomu hyoujou guren ni somare
Closet mind is distorted instability.
please release me before breaking.
So long...
In humiliation
The final art is your dead face
Dad which fell to the trap

English Translation
The reverse side of beauty
It dyed by beloved filth.
The firefly submerged in a sea of glamour
Denial is a lie caused by desire
Body heat dyed with contradiction
In the caress that takes on reason
The spring that melts into a dance is suddenly
Filthy...
My mind which falls
Your seed and my seed never mixes.
The connection of this blood is eternal.
You cannot finish suppressing the desire.
To true daughter...[Sexual disgrace]
The pulse of "hunger" which covers the breath
Searches for the confused* crimson lotus flower
Closet mind is distorted instability.
Please release me before breaking.
How long...
In humiliation
The countless fatal scar was born.
[Sexual disgrace]
Prohibited bud...
Reckless driving cucumber...
The kin' collapses...
Near relatives on death...
The smell of a cigarette smell breath shit
Moment that bitter white jam is mixed
Inside of a brain caused an error
and goes mad by the sweet bug [loop]
The tongue and the hands that creep around your neck
Dye the desired expression a burning crimson
Closet mind is distorted instability.
please release me before breaking.
So long...
In humiliation
The final art is your dead face
Dad which fell to the trap

Translator's Notes on Filth in the Beauty:
1. 春 means spring and is usually pronounced "haru" when on its own, but Ruki uses the "shun" pronunciation, probably to better fit in with the rhythm of the song.
2. This song has TONS of symbolism in it. Here are a few ones I'd like to point out especially:
- the "confused crimson lotus flower": obviously represents the vagina of the daughter, who’s cries to be released are not heard by the rapist, thus “confused”. This ties in with the "Prohibited bud" he mentions later on.
- "Reckless driving cucumber": I don't think I need to point out what that one means. Anyone else think of hide when you read that?
- "bitter white jam": I don't think it could be any clearer. This, along with the strong overlaying theme of taboo and the forbidden tell us that Ruki is talking here about a father having sex - or, as is more likely, raping - his daughter. This is neatly tied off by the line "Sexual disgrace", which appears a few times throughout the song.
- It is clear that this is very much against the daughter's will, as is evident in the lines "please release me before breaking." and "In humiliation". In the end, the daughter decides that she has had enough, and kills the father, as we can see from "The final art is your dead face / Dad which fell to the trap".
