#evil lyrics

Evil?

"Cause love aint live here no more,

I think I speak for mankind,

I wanna sing with the angels,

but I'm stuck on this earth,

it hurts

that the creator turned his back on me first...."

[measlybeesly]

"It's about dealing with a narcissist who ironically calls you evil just because you're able to see through their bullshit."

` Two times that I've heard before "It's a curse if you care enough"

[freaquin]

mind lost in bleak vision / try to escape but keep sinking

[knifefightandchill]

from the razor to the rosary we could lose ourselves and paint these walls in pitchfork red

[correct-hermitcraft-quotes]

Zedaph: Well someone's let the dogs out, so the dogs are near the kennel-

Tango: Who?

Zedaph, after a half-second of processing: Who?

Both: Who?

*a slight pause as Zedaph laughs and they both look far too pleased with themselves*

Zedaph: I hate us. We are equally terrible.

The Thriller rap, as read by Vincent Price;

Darkness falls across the land

The midnight hour is close at hand

Creatures crawl in search of blood

To terrorize y’all’s neighborhood

And whosoever shall be found

Without the soul for getting down

Must stand and face the Hounds of Hell

And rot inside a corpse’s shell

The foulest stench is in the air

The funk of forty thousand years

And grizzly ghouls from every tomb

Are closing in to seal your doom

And though you fight to stay alive

Your body starts to shiver

For no mere mortal can resist

The evil of the thriller

AH HA HA HA HA HA HA

AH HA HA HA HA HA HA

(FADE) A HA HA HA HA HA HA

Fun fact: the English lyrics of the new Yingdu chapter opening are different than the Chinese subtitles provided in the video. Which is. Um. I'm torn whether it's some sort of foreshadowing move or it was just the producers being silly.

There's your usual translation subtleties, like "rewind" being written once as 倒带 and once as 回溯; 倒带 is a reference to film (literally rewinding film) whereas 回溯 means literally thinking back or reminiscing about the past. It's also the way most Chinese fandoms refer to characters going back in time as part of a time loop (not sure if it's applied to normal non-looped time travel, but I feel like I've only seen it as part of loops).

Another thing is that the Chinese version of the lyrics "the clock tower bell only struck nine" is "the clock tower bell only struck nine times," which someone in the scrolling comments theorized is a reference to 九九归真, a concept I'm not equipped to talk about other than the fact that it's basically "you always end up at the beginning/nothing will change" (?? Educated Chinese people save me). "I followed every end of the signs" is also written as "I followed every direction of the (road) signs" in Chinese.

[EDIT] I stand corrected; 英都眼 is a reference to the London Eye (Yingdu Eye, in this case), and the English lyrics do reflect that! Which is somehow even funnier. Lu Guang vs An Entire Ferris Wheel FIGHT. Also, the lyric were written before the musicians were aware of the plot of Yingdu, so it does not directly reference any plot events. Disregard anything below this paragraph!

My biggest thing is all the lyrics referencing The Eye. You know. "Rewinding right in front of the eye" and "standing still in front of the eye."

In Chinese, they're "在英都眼前回溯" and "坚定伫立在英都眼前". Which translates to "rewinding back in time in front of Yingdu" and "determinedly standing in front of Yingdu"

I can see the clock tower one being a genuine mistranslation between the two languages; I, too, despise it when English mixes metaphorical and literal terms. But Yingdu is a whole Normal Noun. How Does One Simply Turn A City Into An Eyeball.

Side note, the Chinese lyrics really imply that our guy Lu Guang was stuck at Yingdu for ages/it was a particularly lethal vacation for Cheng Xiaoshi. Which is just so funny to me. Maybe the real enemies were the UKs we met along the way.

"Why am I still doing this?"

"Don't you get it?"

"This is all just a show... and we're playing parts~"
