Lyrics
———————————————————————————————————————————
真夜中の鏡 ドアの無い部屋で
お化粧で戯ぶ 顔の無い少年
ある時は姫君 ある時は淫売
描いては消した Make up shadow
その中のひとり 結ばれる夢など
とうに捨て去った 幻覚のわたし
脆くて弱い 孤独な彼に
恋焦がれているの 鏡の中で
真白からやがて 染みついて消せぬ
面影はまるで あの蜘蛛の化身
"マドモワゼル・タランチュラ"
お願いだからどうか会わせて？
嫌よそれだけは言いたくないわ
「生まれて初めて誰かに似てると言われたよ
僕の全てが変わる気がする」
跡形もなく壊されてゆく姿を見るのは辛すぎるから
聞き分けなくちゃね さよならしなくちゃいけないと
教えてあげるわ この先は窓 鏡を割ったら
新たな世界 彼女は待ってる さあ迷わずに
飛び散る欠片になってくわたしはキラキラと
忘れないでねと 微笑みながら
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror

真夜中の鏡 ドアの無い部屋で
お化粧で遊ぶ1 顔の無い少年
ある時は姫君 ある時は淫売
描いては消した Make up shadow [メーキャップ・シャドー]
その中のひとり 結ばれる夢など
とうに捨て去った 幻覚のわたし
脆くて弱い 孤独な彼に
恋焦がれているの 鏡の中で
真白からやがて 染みついて消せぬ
面影はまるで あの蜘蛛の化身
"マドモワゼル・タランチュラ"
お願いだからどうか会わせて？
嫌よそれだけは言いたくないわ
「生まれて初めて誰かに似てると言われたよ
僕の全てが変わる気がする」
跡形もなく壊されてゆく姿を見るのは辛すぎるから
聞き分けなくちゃね さよならしなくちゃいけないと
教えてあげるわ この先は窓 鏡を割ったら
新たな世界 彼女は待ってる さあ迷わずに
飛び散る欠片になってくわたしはキラキラと
忘れないでねと 微笑みながら
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror2

Rōmaji Lyrics
———————————————————————————————————————————
Mayonaka no kagami…doa no nai heya de
O-keshō de asobu1…kao no nai shōnen
Aru toki wa himegimi, aru toki wa inbai
Egaite wa keshita…makeup shadow [mēkyappu-shadō]
Sono naka no hitori…musubareru yume nado
Tō ni sutesatta…genkaku no watashi
Morokute yowai…kodoku na kare ni
Koikogarete iru no…kagami no naka de
Masshiro kara yagate…shimitsuite kesenu
Omokage wa marude…ano kumo no keshin
(“Madomowazeru Taranchura“)
O-negai dakara, dōka awasete?
Iya yo! Soredake wa iitakunai wa
“Umarete hajimete dareka ni niteru to iwareta yo
Boku no subete ga kawaru ki ga suru”
Atokata mo naku kowasarete yuku sugata o miru no wa tsurasugiru kara…
…Kikiwake nakucha ne, sayonara shinakucha ikenai to
Oshiete ageru wa…kono saki wa mado…kagami o wattara
Arata na sekai…kanojo wa matteru…sā, mayowazu ni!
Tobichiru kakera ni natteku watashi wa kira-kira to
“Wasurenaide ne,” to…hohoeminagara
(I’m just a ghost in the mirror
I’m just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror)2

My English Translation
———————————————————————————————————————————
Looking at a midnight mirror…in a room without a door
A boy without a face…plays with makeup
At certain times, he makes himself into a princess, at other times he makes himself into a prostitute
Drawn/Painted on and erased by a…makeup shadow
He is only one person therein among them…I abandoned long ago
The dreams and such I had tied together with him…I am simply of a hallucination/an illusion of his
I am deeply in love with…the him that is fragile, weak and
Lonely/Isolated…inside of the mirror
His face is just like…the incarnation of that spider
Before long, being indelibly stained by…pure white and it cannot be erased
(“Mademoiselle/Miss Tarantula“)
Because it is my wish, can I please meet her?
No! That alone, I don’t want to say
“I was told that I resemble someone for the first time since I was born
I feel that everything about me will now change”
Because it is too painful to see her destroy your figure/appearance without leaving any trace…
…You have to understand, it is pointless to have to say goodbye/farewell
I will do you the favor of teaching you this…from now on, if you break/smash the mirror…that is a window
To a new world where…she is waiting for you, you will be free…now, without hesitating, do it!
I glitter as she becomes broken pieces that scatter
“Don’t forget me,” she says…while smiling
(I’m just a ghost in the mirror
I’m just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror
I'm just a ghost in the mirror)1
