Wonderful song...the imagery is just amazing. Most Dir en Grey songs seem to tell an epic story if you really read into them, versus how most bands tend to talk vaguely about a topic. This song really makes me think of a love or an affair that wasn't seen as appropriate in the eyes of the townspeople.
"It vainly comes just crashing down
In this sad and forgotten little town"
Whether it was an adulterious or maybe homosexual relationship, I'm not sure. But it seems that one of the members of this relationship is pregnant, and even though their relationship wasn't 'innapropriate', so to speak, the child is still innocent and 'good'.
"The hand of the child born tomorrow will be just pure and nothing else"
It honestly reminds me of a modern twist on the story of 'The Scarlet Letter' by Nathaniel Hawthorne. If anyone has read it, I'm sure you can see what I mean.
