Red Rhapsody (unofficial lyrics ver.1)

Here's the lyrics to Red Rhapsody,
I can't make out the last part.
Hopefully one of you can help out:)
For now here's the unofficial lyrics as best as I can make out.
Enjoy !

Sweet melody
breathes in the world of silence
Til every drop of blood
stops bleeding the emptiness
I'll be screaming my heart
from here to the depths of god's fear
to find a difference we lie
Between now and forever ,

ah I  can see you standing there
I can see you're holding freedom
Over the flame
Did you find the other side of the sky
That we believed
I can feel you standing there
Close enough to hear you breathing
But so far away
To touch the skin with all it's mystery

Can you tie my flesh in light with love
And ropes of velvet
Every choice I made
was to break, break away from loneliness
You can break yourself away

I can see you holding freedom
Over the flame
Did you find the otherside of the sky
that we believed
I can feel you standing there 
close enough to hear you breathing
But so far away 
to touch the skin with all it's mystery, oh

Feel the wind from heaven
Eternity swaying the flame
Til we find the otherside of the world that we conceal
I can feel you standing there
Close enough to feel its burning
..... The ....of life????
Flows into the ocean of life

  1. It seems everyone has differing opinions about the lyrics. I heard them a little differently:

    Sweet melody breaks through the world of silence
    'til every drop of blood stops feeding/bleeding the emptiness
    I'll be screaming our heart from here to the depths of Godspeed/God's feed
    to find the difference we make between now and forever, ah

    I can see you standing there
    I can see you holding freedom, over the flame
    Did you find the other side of the sky that we believe
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to hear you breathing
    But so far away
    To touch the skin with all its mystery

    Can you tie my flesh and mind with love in ropes of velvet
    Every choice I made was to break, break away from loneliness
    You can break yourself away

    I can see you holding freedom over the flame
    Did you find the other side of the sky that we believe
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to hear you breathing
    But so far away
    To touch the skin with all its mystery, ah

    Feel the wind from heaven, it's reckoning swaying the flame
    'til we find the other side of the heart that we conceal
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to feel its burning
    with love of the light
    Its love flows into the ocean of life

    I don't think it'll be possible to get right until Yoshiki releases the lyrics or an official recording :)

  2. Hi Jane,

    Hey thank you for posting~
    I quite like the lyrics as you hear them.

    Yeh we all know YOSHIKI has a habit of not releasing the lyrics.
    I guess with the shift to digital sales, it will be even hard for us fans to get
    the proper lyrics.

    I.V. and JADE are prime examples~
    (i always wonder what YOSHIKI whispers during I.V.)

    Anyways, hopefully we will hear Red Rhapsody again during the YC Tour,
    and maybe then i can fix these lyrics once and for all;)

    peace,
    D

  3. It's too bad digital songs don't come with an option to dl digital images~

    For the whispered part of I.V... what I hear is, "we were seduced with lust... I don't fear this fucking life, love."

  4. Oh cool thanks for that! Despite being a native english speaker I never could make that part out.. must have listened to too much loud music;)

    Let's hope there's more VUK throughout the tour.

  5. p.s. yeh, for digital tracks the artist has the option of adding artwork, but its very rare for Singles.

  6. hello kazooms,

    thanks for sharing this lyrics!! this song is so beautiful, i can hardly stop hearing it again and again. Although i am not the native eng speaker, nor is my eng very good, but as being a big fan of yoshiki, i know quite what kind of words yoshiki likes to use in his songs, and if we put this word in the context, whether it makes certain sense? Based on the above way and also after i check your version compared with that of jane again and agian, i do some small correction.

    Sweet melody breaks through the world of silence
    'til every drop of blood stops feeding/bleeding the emptiness
    I'll be screaming our heart from here to the depths of God's fear
    to find the difference we make between now and forever, ah

    I can see you standing there
    I can see you holding freedom, over the flame
    Did you find the other side of the sky that we believe
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to hear you breathing
    But so far away
    To touch the skin with all its mystery

    Can you tie my flesh and mind with love in ropes of velvet
    Every choice I made was to break, break away from loneliness
    You can break yourself away

    I can see you holding freedom over the flame
    Did you find the other side of the sky that we believed
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to hear you breathing
    But so far away
    To touch the skin with all its mystery, ah

    Feel the wind from heaven, eternity swaying the flame
    'til we find the other side of the heart that we conceal
    I can feel you standing there, close enough to feel its burning
    with love of the lie
    Its love flows into the ocean of life

    (especially in the last 2 sentences, i think "with love of the lie" is a more plausible way, since katie's mouth action didn't show an emphasized *t* with the word "light", and love of the light doesn't make sense in the explaination.....)

    and further more, in the second time of chorus, the word "believe" has been used in its past form as "believed". Its just very subtle change.

    If you have a more precise version, pls hang on this website, i will come back to check.

    warm regards

  7. hello again!!

    after i have been hearing the song the whole night again, i modify the first part the text, i think maybe it is more precise.

    Sweet melody breaks through the world of silen,ce
    'til every drop of blood stops filling the emptiness
    I've be screaming my heart, from here to the depths of God's fear
    to find the difference we make between now, and forever, ah
