Lyrics
wind and distant crows only – no voice yet
voice enters dry, spoken, no bass, ancient Yamato dialect
比売古神 影なき者
八岐の花嫁 鏡の女王
汝が名を封ず 汝が目を封ず
汝が足音を封ず 汝が笑いを封ず
808 heartbeat fades in – one sub every two breaths, voice begins echoing against the mound
東の鏡 壁に返せ
西の鏡 土に埋めよ
北の鏡 塩を掛けよ
南の鏡 逆さに置け
天の鏡 月で覆え
地の鏡 血で塗れ
chant splits into eight overlapping layers, rising like a storm that never quite breaks, 808 still locked at corpse tempo
八つの呪いを 八つの石に返せ
八つの首を 八つの夢に返せ
壹與の器を 十三歳のまま凍らせよ
箸墓の石戸 動かざれ 動かざれ 動かざれ
all voices collapse into a single hoarse whisper, 808 slows to one pulse per full exhale
今この呪詞を聞く者
鏡を壁に向けよ
鴉に塩を与えよ
私の名を逆さに三度唱えよ
さすれば明日が来る
させねば 鏡が開く
one last solitary 808 thump… then total vacuum
