psychological warfare

Single2025
An ambiguous smile, a calculated silence, a wavering gaze. "Mind Games" depicts a romance defined by psychological warfare where lies and truth blur together, set to a mysterious dark pop groove. It is a game of nerves where touching means falling, and the atmosphere turns to sweet poison the closer you get. Each time you probe—"Where is the real you?"—both heartbeats race off course like a trap. Fake or Real? Truth or Fake? At the end of this night of mind games, there is neither winner nor loser—only an answer that belongs to the two of you alone. It is a glamorous, tension-filled, mysterious song for grown-ups.

Lyrics (Japanese)

曖昧な笑みの裏で 計算された沈黙が揺れる 駆け引きの影を踏み越えて You're hiding truth behind your eyes 探り合うほど深く落ちていく 静けさが刺すように 胸の奥を締めつける Every move, every breath すべてが罠のようで 心理戦の夜に踊る Fake or real? 問いかけるたび 揺れる Heartbeat 嘘か真実か Break this lie, break this tie 逃がさない… 互いの心を試すように 優雅な仕草で近づいて 触れる距離の中で微笑む 「本当のあなたはどこ?」 I can hear your whisper in the dark 見抜けないふりで誘っている 張りつめた空気さえ 甘い毒に変わっていく Secrets melt in the night 心さえ操られていく 交差する視線の奥 Tell me now 隠した鼓動を 揺れる境界線は 罠か願いか Tie me down, pull me in ほどけない… この駆け引きの渦 引き返せないほど We’re too far to lie again 手の中の truth or dare 選ぶたび 心が試される Who will win this game tonight? 心理戦の果てに残る Truth or fake? 決着の火花 胸を焦がす痛みさえ Love or hate… 二人を離さない Break the fear, steal the light 最後の駆け引きは あなたと…

Translation

Behind that ambiguous smile A calculated silence trembles in the air I step across the shadows of our games You're hiding the truth behind your eyes The more we probe, the deeper we fall The silence stings, tightening deep inside my chest Every move, every breath Everything feels like a trap Dancing through this night of mind games Fake or real? Each time I ask A trembling heartbeat—is it a lie or the truth? Break this lie, break this tie No escape... as if putting each other's hearts to the test Approaching with a graceful gesture Smiling within a breath of touching me "Where is the real you?" I can hear your whisper in the dark Luring me in, pretending you can't see through me Even this air pulled taut and tense Turns into a sweet poison Secrets melt in the night And even my heart is being controlled Deep behind our crossing gazes Tell me now, the hidden heartbeat This trembling borderline, a trap or a wish? Tie me down, pull me in I can't break free... from this whirlpool of games We've come too far to turn back now We're too far to lie again Truth or dare held in my hand And every choice puts my heart on trial Who will win this game tonight? At the end of these mind games, what remains? Truth or fake? The sparks of our final showdown Even the pain that burns through my chest Love or hate... it will never let us go Break the fear, steal the light The final game is with you...
