紫の照明の下で 佇んでいるタイガーリリー
Under purple lights stands Tigerlily
褐色の肌がよく似合ってる 膨らんだ胸 手を差し出した
Her bronze skin suits her—she reaches out with full curves
彼女は底抜けの優しさで 夢と幻覚を弄ぶ
With boundless kindness, she plays with dreams and delusions
笑顔を作るのがうまいんだ 誰もがその身に沈んでいくよ
She’s good at smiling—everyone sinks into her
彼女は狭いその部屋しか居ない
She stays only in that small room
匂いのきつい石鹸を取り 息を吹きかけ手招いてる
Takes strong soap, blows on it, and beckons
君は問いかける「外の世界へ連れ出せる勇気があるのか?」
You ask, “Do you have the courage to take me out into the world?”
戸惑った 愛されること求めてる迷うの一体なんだ?
I hesitates—what is this confusion, craving love?
狭い部屋には螺旋階段 手を引き登るタイガーリリー
The room holds a spiral staircase—Tigerlily pulls you up
階段は行きはやけに長く 帰りはとても短く感じる
It feels long on the way up and short on the way down
彼女は憂う 「ここに来ちゃいけない」
She sighs, “You shouldn’t come here”
魅惑の街の出口の扉 イタズラな笑顔 鍵閉めた
The door out of the enchanting city—locked with her playful smile
僕は問いかける 「外の世界で 満たされることがあるのか?」
I ask, “Can we be fulfilled out in the world?”
背けた目 「ここを出ることは生き方を失くすことなの」
She averts her eyes—“Leaving here means losing my way of life”
外の世界へ 外の世界ヘ
Into the outside world—into the outside world
そして笑い出す 「知り過ぎたこと二人には疑惑が生まれる」
Then she laughs, “Knowing too much creates doubt between us”
「幻想を愛して生きてく それだけが真実になるよ」
“Loving illusion and living in it—that becomes the only truth”
君は問う「外の世界へ連れ出せる勇気がある?」
You ask, “Can you take me into the real world?”
「愛してる」その嘘に喜んで 雨降る窓の外に飛び出す
“Love you”—you rejoice in that lie and dash into the rainy night
外の世界へ 外の世界ヘ
Into the outside world—into the outside world

Artist Profile
Metropolis
Metropolis is a Japan-based home-recording musician known for blending acoustic instruments with electronic sounds to create a genre-defying sonic experience. All tracks are self-produced -written, composed, arranged, and recorded entirely using a personal computer and home studio setup. The debut album "Cyberpunk" explores a dreamlike world, layering the warmth of acoustic textures with the chill of digital tones - like a city at night, glowing in neon. The artist name "Metropolis" reflects the contrast between light and shadow, analog and digital, and the surreal in everyday life. Metropolis creates music to quietly accompany someone's daily life - sounds that stay close to the listener's heart.
