1. Lolita By Kana: Translated lyrics:
- A path through the woods on the other side of the wall
That hand wanted to go
The twinkling stars in the sky, the fallen rocks
I finally found your secret
The scent of perfume drifting up, I waited to shine
A path through the woods on the other side of the wall
This hand couldn’t go
The swaying heart-shape, the sound of breaking
I quietly hid those memories
Wearing white shoes, something’s changing
I’m alone
The truth is
I want to say it
A frilly skirt
I miss you
I miss you

2. Happy Birthday by The Birthday Massacre: Lyrics:
I think my friend said, “I hear footsteps.”
I wore my black and white dress to the
birthday massacre, birthday massacre, birthday
I wore my black and white dress
I think my friend said, “Stick it in the back of her head.”
I think my friend said, “Two of them are sisters.”
“I’m a murder tramp, birthday boy”, I think I said
“I’m gonna bash them in, bash them in”, I think he said
Then we wished them all a happy birthday
We kissed them all goodnight. Now he chases me to my room,
chases me to my room, chases me
In my black and red dress
I think my friend said, “Don’t forget the video.”
I think my friend said, ” Don’t forget to smile.”
“You’re a murder tramp, murder tramp”, I think he said
“You’re a murder boy, birthday boy”, I think I said
I think this song is very guro-lolita, or maybe I just wanted an excuse to include my Birthday Massacre craze.

Fun Fact: As the band rose to fame, they could no longer keep their old name Imagica since other bands had the name. They changed their name to ” The Birthday Massacre” after their popular song so that their fans from the beginning could find them. Then, they changed the song’s name to Happy Birthday.

3. World Of Make Believe by Within Temptation: Lyrics:
On golden wings
She flies at night
With her dress
It’s blinding white
Countless diamonds
And her long blonde hair
The queen is coming
So you better be aware
Her plums and flowers
They are never the same
Blue and silver
It’s all her game
Flying dragons
And enchanted woods
She decides, she creates
It’s her reality
In her world of dreams and make believe
She reigns forever
With all her glory
Unicorns appear in her sight
The fireflies lead her trough these woods at night
In search of the legendary amulet
And it’s secret
In the big oak there is a door
Which will lead her
To the wizard shore
And she’ll ask him
For the wind to sail her home
To the world where she belongs
In her world of dreams and make believe
She reigns forever
With all her glory
In this world of endless fantasy
She makes it happen
It’s her reality
In her world of dreams and make believe
She reigns forever
With all her glory
In this world of endless fantasy
She makes it happen
It’s her reality
I believe that this song truly captures the element of dressing in lolita in a unique aspect. I love that fairy tale theme that made Within Temptation the best band ever in my eyes.

4. Blue Eyes by Within Temptation: Lyrics:
Blue eyes just smile to the world
Full of dreams and with fascination
Too soon she saw that her hands were chained and pulled without any freedom
It’s always the same, the fear no way out
I cannot break it
I can take it no more
It’s burning me up inside
Lost all my tears, can’t cry
No reason, no meaning
Just hatred
No matter how hard I try
You fear the beast inside
It’s growing, it’s waiting
Just to hurt you
This heart was hurt by the light and
I see your world that tries to deny us
Now everything that I love has died or has been shattered to pieces
It’s always the same, they fear no way out
I cannot break it
I can take it no more
It’s burning me up inside
Lost all my tears, can’t cry
No reason, no meaning
Just hatred
No matter how hard I try
You fear the beast inside
It’s growing, it’s waiting
Just to hurt you
Just to hurt you
Just to hurt you
Can’t you see their eyes, what lies inside
They’ve given up, they no longer shine
Too soon they close with one last cry
Before they turn to white
Just to hurt you
It’s burning me up inside
Lost all my tears, can’t cry
No reason, no meaning
Just hatred
No matter how hard I try
You fear the beast inside
It’s growing, it’s waiting
Just to hurt you
Just to hurt you
To me, this song is a message to stop the senseless restrictions against women in the Middle East, and to be thankful that you can most likely wear pretty much whatever you want.

5. In A World Of My Own in Walt Disney’s 1951 Alice In Wonderland: Lyrics:
Cats and Rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trouses
In a world of my own
All the flowers
Would have very extra special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When im lonely in a world of my own
There’d be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen blue birds
Within that world of my own
I could listen to a beddling brook
And hear a song that i could understand
I keep wishing
It could be that way
Because my world would be a wonderland
This song symbolizes how lolitas have a world of their own.

6. All In The Golden Afternoon In Walt Disney’s 1951 Alice In Wonderland
Lyrics:
Little bread-and-butterflies kiss the tulips
And the sun is like a toy balloon
There are get up in the morning glories
In the golden afternoon
There are dizzy daffodils on the hillside
Strings of violets are all in tune
Tiger lilies love the dandy lions
In the golden afternoon
(The golden afternoon)
There are dog and caterpillars and the copper centipede
Where the lazy daisies love the very peaceful life
They lead…
You can learn a lot of things from the flowers
For especially in the month of June
There’s a wealth of happiness and romance
All in the golden afternoon
All in the golden afternoon
The golden afternoon…
ALICE:
You can learn a lot of things from the flowers
For especially in the month of June
There’s a wealth of happiness and romance
All-
FLOWERS:
In the golden afternoon!
This song makes me think of fanciful afternoons when lolitas meet up and have picnics in a garden/park!

7. Still Doll by Kanon Wakeshima: Lyrics:
Hi Miss Alice.
With glass eyes
What kind of a dream
Are you able to have?
Are you entranced by?
Again for me
My heart tears apart
And flows out
Memories
Pierce into
The mended crevice
Hi Miss Alice.
With fruitful lips
To whom are you
Throwing love at?
Grieving love at?
Im already
Spinning words
The warmth of my tongue
Completely cools
And I cant sing
The song that I adore
The song of love
cannot be sung anymore
Still, you do not answer.
I love the idea of a girl wondering what it’s like to be her doll aloud in the lyrics. Very Gothic Lolita?

9. Promise Me by The Birthday Massacre: Lyrics:
We don’t know what time we’ll be there
But we won’t show up till later
It will all look so much nicer
After all of us arrive
Promise me to pass the time
Dance with me on plastic tears
Kiss me We won’t feel alone
Till morning when we disappear
Though we all want to be noticed
There’s no need for competition
Cause there’s just no way of knowing
Where the camera points tonight
Promise me to pass the time
Dance with me on plastic tears
Kiss me We won’t feel alone
Till morning when we disappear
We don’t listen to each other
Cause we’re all too busy talking
We’ll tell lies about each other
Cause the truth is such a bore
With the threat of dawn approaching
And our interest quickly fading
We will stumble home together
As we did the night before
Promise me to pass the time
Dance with me on plastic tears
Kiss me. We won’t feel alone
Till morning when we disappear
Well what do you know, my Birthday Massacre craze appears again! I could see it suitable for a Gothic Lolita party!

10.Stormbringer by Ashbury Heights: Lyrics:
Its raging surface just an act
There’s little reason to applaud
Such transparental deception
And they tell you to shut your windows
And they tell you to comb your hair
Cause outside there be monsters
And clothes you should not wear
They say your dreams will come to pass
That we will all someday forget
An ambition made of glass
Such an arrogant perception
And they tell you to shut your windows
And they tell you to comb your hair
Cause outside there be monsters
And clothes you should not wear
Topping the ridiculous cake off with the cherry that is Ashbury Heights. I think that this song expresses what a lolita is told by conservative people.

This post has been hell. The songs probably don’t relate to anything but thanks for tuning in if you have! Now to sleep for school I don’t want to go to!
