Dir En Grey - Mushi Lyrics






I can't open myself up to anyone I can't believe in anyone at all
and I can't see anything the light that shines is disappearing, soon it will be gone
unable to open myself up this is my weakness, my past
I can get what I want, yet if I do, the kindness I'm holding onto will slip away
the typical answer is when you die, you'll be reborn, come back again

my heart is shuttered, soon it will break apart
stifling my tears, I laugh day after day
my heart has shown me that believing is nothing
those hypocrites killed me

my heart is shuttered, soon it will crumble away
stifling my tears, I scream day after day
my heart has left me with a belief in strength
my own heart killed me

Dir En Grey Mushi Comments
  1. H.... P....

    I always come back to this song. I feel every word Kyo sings. I cannot hold my tears with this song.

  2. P.... C....

    Just a little correction, "watashi" is used as pronoun for both genders. The feminine version is "atashi", without "W". This, considering romanji version.
    I think this is why many japanese songs say "watashi" when the character's point of view is seen in first person. It's directioned to both genders.

    P.... C....

    Men mostly use "watashi" in polite or formal language. Using "watashi" in an everyday situation will make you sound feminine, uncomfortably formal or like a grandpa. But yes it is gender neutral.

  3. A.... S....

    I listen this songs when i'm alone and feeling hard.

  4. �.... ....

    一番好き

    i'd love to have been there live and to see this concert in full.

  9. D.... K....

    Heartbreaking, yes it makes me cry to see him so sad😢

  10. C.... 2....

    Sometimes....I just wanna yell like kyo to relive my pain......but I keep in the tears........my heart......

    C.... 2....

    There's an interview where he says he screams for those who cannot.

  11. C.... 2....

    Sad day.....I come to Music because that seems to be the only thing there for me when I’m happy, sad, and alone..............😭😭😭😭😭😭

  12. D.... K....

    This breaks my heart :(

  13. j.... ....

    your edit!! is so important!!!!
    holy shit am i gonna be unable to even listen to dir anymore aaaaahhhh

    I have been listening to this song for years and I have never seen a performance that more closely resembles what I have been through. It's almost scary.

  15. D.... T....

    legitimately one of the only songs where i feel genuine empathy once i hear the emotion in his screams

  20. M.... R....

    Dir en grey ❤❤❤

  21. J.... V....

    Since Diru is known for making very sad songs, everyone, in your opinion, what is the saddest/most heartbreaking song by them? in my opinion it's Zakuro, especially watching the Blitz 5 Day version of it is very heartbreaking...

    J.... V....

    Johnny Vincent Probably Vanitas. Though every album has at least one that's unforgettable.

    J.... V....

    Higeki Wa.....Kyo wrote it for a fan who commited suicide I think.

    J.... V....

    There's so many... The pledge, conceived sorrow, Tousei, ain't afraid to die

    J.... V....

    I'd say currently Higeki Wa

    J.... V....

    Garden live from Osaka Jo Hall 1999...especially when fans sing along

  22. �.... �....

    Kyo hawe a wery beautyful eyes

  23. t.... ....

    Wasn't this the song he wrote for his best friend that was in another band but he passed away? I don't really think its from the viewpoint of a woman or himself.

    t.... ....

    The song you mean is probably "Vanitas".
    "Mushi" is about a break-up and there is little room for interpretation that it's not from the viewpoint of a woman because Kyo uses a female/neutral version of refering to himself ("watashi") which is rather uncommon for guys (nowadays) who use the neutral "boku" or more harsh sounding "ore". Kyo has written many songs (the vast majority even) that weren't from his point of view or from a woman (such as Kasumi or Embryo or Tefu Tefu, to name a recent one). He also stated in interviews that he has done that.

  24. S.... A....

    Thank you thank you thank you for translating all DEG songs and analyzing them! For me, Kyo's voice always manage to get me emotional...and on top of that, the Kaoru and Die on GUITARS, Toshiya on BASS, AND My Hero SHINYA on DRUMS, even their instruments seem to bring out MORE emotion! They SPEAKS TO YOU! Amazing band

    i love this live so much... its like the same feeling i get when i first heard the second scream of ware, yami tote. the really intense one? i feel so bad for kyo, hes had to experience this horribly nasty, gut-wrenching feeling all the time. its so sad what hes been through. i love DEG, such great musicians.
