Chou(butterfly) by Tsukiko Amano/ Fatal Frame 2: End OST

I played only the beginning of 'Fatal Frame 2: The Crimson Butterfly' then stop due to fright in playing horror games and watching horror movies as well. And to tell you the truth, when I first played the game, I had built up a small courage of facing my fears...well my courage just faded after watching a cutscene in stage one and...more likely the constant vibration of the damn controller. So me and my friend switched the game to Kingdom Hearts...yay -.-!

Now you guys must be wondering how did I heard the ending theme of Fatal Frame 2. Here's the answer...I built enough courage to watch Fatal Frame 2 on youtube...haha pathetic as you say...I still have no guts to play the freaking game and I hope someday I will...the walkthrough that I was watching had a small intro video and it played 'Chou' as the intro music which I immensely fell in love with...and yada yada all became history *gets shot*.

'Chou' has a beautiful beginning and verse, and I love the smooth transition between the gentle melody of spine chilling violins to rock; near the ending.

Romaji Lyrics:
Chika ni moguri ana wo horitsudzuketa
Doko ni tsudzuku ana ka ha shirazu ni
Tsuchi ni nureta sukoopu wo katate ni
Kimi no ude wo sagashite ita

Tsugihagi no shiawase wo yoseatsume makinagara
Kimi no tsuyosa ni oshitsubusareteta

Yaketsuki

Hagarenai tenohira no ato
Chigireta tsubasa de akaku somaru kumoma wo saite
Jouzu ni habataku watashi wo mitsukete

Mayu ni komori egaita eien ha
Doko ni mebuki hanahiraku no darou
Asa ha yagate yamiyo wo tsuremodoshi
Watashi no me wo ubatte yuku

Tsukiakari
Tesaguri de kasaneai motsurete ha
Kimi no arika ni nareru to shinjita

Jouzu ni habataku watashi wo mitsukete

Sakendemo kikoenu nara

Mada watashi wo �gwatashi�h to yoberu uchi ni
Dakitomeru kimi no ude ga odayaka na chiri ni kawaru

English Lyrics:

I kept digging a hole underground
Without knowing where the hole would go on to
With a spade wet with dirt in one hand,
I searched for your arm

While I scraped together and scattered my patched-up happiness
I was crushed by your strength

The burning
The burning
Imprint of a palm that won't come unstuck
Cut between the clouds stained red by my riven wings
And find me flapping them skillfully

Where will the eternity I drew confined in a cocoon
Bud and blossom, I wonder?
At last, the morning will bring back the dark night
And steal away my sight

I believed
By my fumbling, the moonlight would overlap and tangle
And thus could become the place where you are

The igniting
The igniting
Promised place that won't come back
Run through the earth stained black by my riven pain
And find me flapping my wings skillfully

If you cannot hear me even if I scream,
I want you to break me with your own hands
While I can still call myself
Your arms, which caught me, changed into calm dust
And I just quietly
Gazed up at the heavens

The burning
The burning
Imprint of a palm that won't come unstuck
Cut between the clouds tinged red by my riven wings

The igniting
The igniting
Promised place that won't come back
And find me flapping them skillfully



PS...I think I got hit by another plot bunny :))
