WARNING:
Some of my English translations are very sketchy. My Japanese is far from fluent (in other words, bad), and I would appreciate any corrections. The romaji should be correct. Any English or Katakana words are written in CAPS LOCK in the romaji.
Please don't post these translations anywhere else, because I go back to fix them from time to time and I don't want old versions floating around.
I'm not sure how accurate this is - I feel like at least some of the pronouns are off - but I gave it my best shot. It's sad that LUCIFER didn't last longer. I thought they were really promising. The singer's voice is super cute.
There's just something so refreshingly jarring about a guy in a band called LUCIFER having such an innocent-sounding voice.
ディストピア / Dystopia
Music and Lyrics: Mika
Do you understand?
Your thoughts are being restricted
I was brought to life again Reality is awkward, and I hate it
It keeps ringing out so much that it’s getting annoying
The voice of my heart is
Becoming a brilliant lie
The days are cycling by
I want to disappear under this sky
If I’m just going to be in this rotten form,
I’ve had enough of this body already
I searched for an unoccupied heart
And was stabbed through with a pure lie*
In this fleeting world**
I’m bearing my anguish***
But the thoughts still won’t stop
Nevertheless, it was snatched away
I want to live
Wavering like this is agony
If I give up completely,
With a kind and graceful heart,****
And calmly tell a lie,
I will sleep
I wonder what’s waiting at the ends of the earth?
It’s fine if I don’t get to see the answer
We can “drift away” from sadness now
I want to disappear under this sky
If I’m just going to be in this rotten form,
I’ve had enough of this body already
I searched for an unoccupied heart
And was stabbed through with a pure fang*****
In this fleeting world
Notes:
**, ***, **** Not sure about these lines in particular
*, ***** With these two, I'm not sure who is stabbing/being stabbed, tbh. Either way feels like I'm reading it wrong, so I'm not sure which to go with

I'm a massive Hunter x Hunter fan, so when I saw TYOSiN had a song called "York Shin City" and a big Phantom Troupe tattoo on his neck, I'll admit that was a big point in his favor for me.
There are some lines in this that I really don't understand, but I think the gist of it is there. Hopefully. ^^;
There are some interesting word choices in this track, and it's fun trying to spot all the references. Like the Kurapika lines are pretty obvious, but I after I was reading through it I kept spotting other little things that could represent other characters, like the "abracadabra" could be for Hisoka? It's a fun song. ;)
York Shin City
York Shin, red eyes burst open
York Shin, the coals burst into flame
York Shin, the spider’s way splits open
York Shin City, kill bitch
York Shin, red eyes burst open
York Shin, the coals burst into flame
York Shin, the spider’s way splits open
York Shin City, kill bitch
Even if the spider’s limbs are cut off,
It’ll keep moving all night long
If that doesn’t pierce through your skull,
When you’re enveloped by the phantoms, it’s all over
Even if the spider’s limbs are cut off,
It’ll keep moving all night long
If that doesn’t pierce through your skull,
When you’re enveloped by the phantoms, it’s all over
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
We want everything
We’ll snatch it all at once
We’re bandits, raging through Tokyo
All the techniques jammed into my head,*
And the hoe hanging from the end of that dangling thread
Who and who did what and what?
I don’t care anyway, bitch
I make a risk hedge, gold plating*
Peel it off rich, which way do I want to go**
Look at me, brother***
Since no one can stop us, we’re gonna steal
Leave you with nothing, abracadabra
This evening’s treasure is our treasure
If you wanna kill, first you’ve gotta smash the head
Without leaving any bastards who get in your way
Kill shit
Kill bitch, kill me
Can you feel it?
Feel me? Feel me?
Let’s go, ring ring****
Let’s go, ring ring****
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
York Shin, red eyes burst open
York Shin, the coals burst into flame
York Shin, the spider’s way splits open
York Shin City, kill bitch
York Shin, red eyes burst open
York Shin, the coals burst into flame
York Shin, the spider’s way splits open
York Shin City, kill bitch
Even if the spider’s limbs are cut off,
It’ll keep moving all night long
If that doesn’t pierce through your skull,
When you’re enveloped by the phantoms, it’s all over
Even if the spider’s limbs are cut off,
It’ll keep moving all night long
If that doesn’t pierce through your skull,
When you’re enveloped by the phantoms, it’s all over
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
Don’t steal from us,
We steal from you
No one can stop us,
So there’s nothing we won’t snatch away
Even I were to disappear,
You guys would carry out our mission
We don’t have any lies, fear or uneasiness between us
We’ll stick to our own selfish sense of justice
The melody we’re playing
Is a cacophony that echoes from York Shin
And it still won’t stop ringing out
And it still won’t stop ringing out
I wanna kill, I wanna kill, I wanna kill, kill*****
I’ll kill all the bastards that get in our way
We’re the brigade, so hurry up and move aside
If you see us, run right away
Watch your back, chain guy
The spider’s limbs are after you
The spider’s limbs are after you
The spider’s limbs are after you
Notes:
* I’m assuming this is a reference to Chrollo’s ability, because the next line is definitely a reference to Machi
** I have no idea what this means, and googling it didn’t help
*** This too
**** Not really sure about this either
***** I’m not really sure how to translate “manji” here – I’m assuming that it’s just like they’re getting fired up to go, but I don’t really know how you use it, so don’t take my word on that
****** The kanji here is specifically to slice/kill someone with a blade, so I’m assuming this is Feitan or Nobunaga
