Description

 * The song tells the story of the cyber girl Ene, who lives inside the computer of the NEET Shintaro. He refuses to do anything but stay in his room and use his computer, and Ene watches him go through his days with only minor changes in routine. He averts his eyes from the real world and hides, even though he cannot forget his own past. She reminds him that he should know that fleeing from reality is not the best solution, but that if he has to, he should live with her in a world created by humans and pay attention only to her. As her world starts to crumble, Ene screams that she does not understand, while Shintaro responds that he's tired of "a toy that can only talk".


 * As revealed in Losstime Memory, this song takes place in the Route XX timeline, when Shintaro fails to meet the Mekakushi Dan and kills both Ene and himself.

Lyrics & Translation
「夢の消えた毎日を 繰り返して いたって意味などないよ. 」と 素晴らしいこと言うね
 * -|Kanji=

君もそう、「非現実を 愛してます. 」 なんて指では言うけど 口では何も言えないのにね

顔も声もない人と 繋がってる「なにか」を感じてる それはきっと相思相愛じゃないけど

そうやって今日もまた 一日が終わるけど 君は生きたようなフリを して　して　そして眠る

「ああ、つまらないな. 」と目を背けてみても 閉じることは出来ないくせに ねぇ、そんなことを認めもしない割りに 今日もまた厭らしい顔で画面の奥の 私を見てるよ？

それが最善策じゃないことを きっと君は知ってる 萎んだ暗い毎日に 溺れてるのは苦しいよね

嘘じゃない現実が何なのか 解らないのなら一緒に 人が造りだした世界で 生きるのはどうかな？

君を否定するような 場所なんている意味が無いでしょ? もう全て「No.」にして 私だけを見てよ

「ああ素晴らしいね. 」と手を叩いてみても 全部嘘で外はゴミだらけ ねえ、苦しいほどそれに埋もれた君が 何で今あっちにむける冷たい顔で 私を見てるの？

それが最善策じゃないことを きっと君も知ってる それの先にあるのは きっと底無しの孤独感

光の射さない毎日を 繰り返してた部屋に 崩れ始めている 私のノイズが響いてる

｢こんなの全然解らないよ｣ 叫んだ私に君は ｢喋るだけのおもちゃはもう 飽きた. ｣と言った

“When your dreams have disappeared, You can keep going Through your daily routine, but what’s the point?” What an incredible thing to say

Just like me, you love Unreality; You say that with your fingers But your mouth says nothing at all

You feel “something” connecting you To people without faces or voices But I’m sure that’s not really love for one another

Today is coming to an end, But as usual You just pretend and pretend To live, and then sleep

You say “I’m not interested,” and avert your eyes Even though you can’t close them Hey, considering that you can’t accept such a thing, Are you going to spend today, yet again, watching me through the screen With that disagreeable look on your face?

You must know that That’s not the best plan It must hurt so much to be drowning In a dark and withered life

What’s truth and not lies? If you don’t know the difference Then why not live with me In a man-made world?

Is there any point to living In a place that rejects you? Just say “No” to everything already And look only at me

Though some might say “Ah, how wonderful,” and clap their hands It’s all lies, and outside there’s so much garbage Hey, if you’ve been crushed under it all, Why are you still focusing on what’s out there And looking at me so coldly?

Even you must know that That’s not the best plan At the end of it there’s only A bottomless loneliness

In this room where you repeated The routine of your sunless days My noise is echoing As it starts to break down

“I don’t get it at all!” I shouted, and you said to me, “I’m tired of this toy That does nothing but talk.”
