(Dial J, dial J) Kokoro harenai
(Dial J, dial J) Ashita ga mienai
(Dial J, dial J) Yume ga mienai
Watashi o oiteiku toki no nagare
Hada de kanjite tasogare ni tatazumu no
"Wawaranai mono nante nai yo"
Anata no kotoba kuyashikute
DAIARU hitotsu no hosoi kizuna
Marude GARASU-zaiku dane
"Ima doko ni iru no?"
Hontō ni kikitai koto wa
Chigau koto
(Call a JOKER right now!) Watashi naze ikiteru no?
(Call a JOKER right now!) Nan no tame ikiteru no?
(Call a JOKER right now!) Nakushita yume torimodosō
(Dial J Dial J) I feel depressed
(Dial J Dial J) I can't see tomorrow
(Dial J Dial J) I can't see my dream
The time flows as you leave me behind
I know first hand that I stand adrift in the twilight
"There is nothing that doesn't change"
Your words are regretful
Dialing is the one thin bond [between us]
It's fragile like glasswork
"Where are you now?"
What I really want to ask is
Something else
(Call a Joker right now!) Why am I alive?
(Call a Joker right now!) What do I live for?
(Call a Joker right now!) I'll take back my lost dream
I'll take the angel's wings and fly away! Oh yeah!
[Monologue of Oracle of Maia]
Translation by Innocent Sin fans translation project "Oracle of Maiya".
Profile[]
The lyric strongly encourages the audiences to call the Joker whenever they feel depressed of achieving something they are incapable of. The monologue of Oracle of Maia in full content, albeit unknowingly, is recited by Lisa Silverman for spreading the prophecy to a wider populace. Also the last line of the lyric hints the transformation of Joker into Angel Joker.
This song is also performed in the Eternal Punishment universe by Muses but without reciting the Oracle of Maia.
