The IIId Empire (English) Lyrics
Brainwash makes us sing a sorrowful song.
People in waves, they sing along.
For the country to prosper.
For the country to prosper.
It?s the country?s song
It?s a bomb that?s just covered up.
Freedom::Love::Riot::Power
Whores and prostitutes
City of illicit sales
Politics::Poverty::Dictatorship::Nuclear.
Is there such a thing as freedom inside us?
Other than Victory the result is destruction
Being Supervised + the result equals despair.
For the country to prosper.
For the country to prosper.
It?s the country?s song.
It?s TI that?s just covered up.
SPARK SUBLIMINAL VISION L&P
Love and peace is vanished
It?s a city of destruction.
And it?s called Freedom.
Beautiful fireworks light the night as children smile with joy.
Cheering voices all around.
Execute Firearm Penetrated inside.
ONE TWO in the cranium
ONE TWO THREE Sounds of firearm swirl like the whirlwind as it strike the ears.
The prison guard jumps and screams in laughter.
People?s emotions swirl in a whirlwind.
Rebellion Felony
Shoot away ONE TWO
Children ONE TWO THREE
Cleanse away.
People scream
Awakening Awakening Awakening Awakening
SPARK AND SPARK
People in waves, they sing along.
For the country to prosper.

KYO'S THOUGHTS ON THE LYRICS: "Put simply, these lyrics are about war, right? But I wasn’t born in a time of war. So to be blunt, these lyrics have no weight behind them. But I’m in fact making fun of myself for the very act of writing and singing these kind of things in the song, despite that I know nothing of war. Like, ‘what an ass I am, I don’t know shit’. Only that portion."
"The Third Empire" hmmm.... the Third Reich?

This really makes me think of Nazi Germany, I knoew he probably meant it more for Japan, but perhaps that is the point of the name play... to draw parallels.

Good lord I listen to this song was too much. Even the fricken live version of this song is pimptastic.
I saw Dir en Grey on their 08 tour in North American/Canada (I went to the one in Canada at Kool Haus) and they preformed this as thier last song... it was sooooo f***ing amazing!!!
I hoped and prayed that they would do this song at the concert even though it may be a bit old...
AND THEY DID!!!
I was sooooo happy ^^
And Die was really getting into this song too... He leaned out into the crowd and I touched his Red ESP guitar o(0Q0)o
Best day of my life...
Sorry if this post was bit long or unnecessary ^^;
it's obviously about WWII. the title and lyrics make plenty of sense to me.
