Background[]
"Cendrillon" is an original song by Signal-P. The title is the French name for Cinderella.
A girl, the titular Cendrillon (Miku), attends a ball to kill Prince Charles (KAITO) when the clock strikes 12:00 AM, since she was handled by the fairy godmother.[1] As Cendrillon and the prince meet, they dance together and fall in love. The girl becomes increasingly conflicted as midnight approaches, falling into a dilemma as she does not want to kill him. Eventually, she stabs the prince when the bell rings. The final lines of the song discuss the moment right after the prince is stabbed while she can still feel him with her, and muses on how they want the moment to last forever.
The PV is very ambiguous and can be alternatively interpreted as Miku having a split personality, and the "darker" side stabbing KAITO while the "good" side cannot stop it. This, added to the open of the lyrics and the popularity of the song, had generated numerous PVs with different interpretations.
There are several different versions of this song: it has been used as an official demo for VY2 and VY2v3, featuring VY1 and VY1v3 as back up respectively, a variation with different lyrics ("Adolescence"), was uploaded to commemorate the Kagamines' 1st anniversary, and a version with different instrumentals was uploaded in celebration of the song's 10th year anniversary, featuring Hatsune Miku V4X and KAITO V3.
This song has entered the Hall of Legend. A spin-off with "a different ending", titled "Catastrophe", was uploaded on 22 April 2019.
In September-October 2019, upon the Virtual Singers Series' debut in the mobile game 神魔之塔 (Tower of Saviors), the monster card "Swift Glamour - Hatsune Miku & KAITO" was added.[2][3].
Cendrillon (10th Anniversary ver.) was featured in Magical Mirai 2021 as part of KAITO's 15th anniversary featuring the Prince Blanc and Princess Blanche modules.

朝まで踊る夢だけ見せて | asa made odoru yume dake misete |
時計の鐘が解く魔法 | tokei no kane ga toku mahou |
曖昧な指誘う階段 | aimai na yubi sasou kaidan |
三段飛ばしに跳ねていく | san-dan tobashi ni hanete iku |
馬車の中で震えてた | basha no naka de furueteta |
みじめな古着 めくり廻れ夜の舞踏 | mijime na furugi mekuri megure yoru no butou |
見知らぬ顔探す 囁くあの声が | mishiranu kao sagasu sasayaku ano koe ga |
握り締めた刃衝きたて すべてを奪えと | nigirishimeta yaiba tsukitate subete o ubae to |
孤児集う城 笑み仮面に描いて | minashigo tsudou shiro emi kamen ni egaite |
偽りの慈しみさえ 羽で包む熾天使 | itsuwari no itsukushimi sae hane de tsutsumu serafu |
灰の中で赤く溶けて混じる硝子の靴 | hai no naka de akaku tokete majiru garasu no kutsu |
今更帰る震えているの | imasara kaeru furuete iru no |
あなたが目をやる時計 | anata ga me o yaru tokei |
靴脱ぎ踊るスロープ抜けて | kutsu nugi odoru suroopu nukete |
喉まで伸びる指の先で | nodo made nobiru yubi no saki de |
すくう雫口付けて | sukuu shizuku kuchizukete |
走る衝動 背骨抜けていく刹那 | hashiru shoudou sebone nukete iku setsuna |
鐘は鳴らさないで あなたにひざまずき | kane wa narasanaide anata ni hizamazuki |
まだダメと叫んだ右手が 突き刺すサヨナラ | mada dame to sakenda migite ga tsukisasu sayonara |
消せない硝煙を香水にまとう姫 | kesenai shouen o kousui ni matou hime |
強い瞳僕の凍った 仮面ごと撃ち抜く | tsuyoi hitomi boku no kootta kamen-goto uchinuku |
今も耳にあなたの吐息が | ima mo mimi ni anata no toiki ga |
突き刺さるの遠い夢 | tsukisasaru no tooi yume |

君にかぶせたベール | kimi ni kabuseta beeru |
ドレス膝で裂いて ティアラは投げ捨てて | doresu hiza de saite tiara wa nagesutete |
見つめあう瞳と瞳が 火花を放つ | mitsumeau hitomi to hitomi ga hibana o hanatsu |
孤独な魂が炎あげ惹かれあう | kodoku na tamashii ga honoo age hikareau |
その涙すくえないなら まるで一人遊び | sono namida sukuenai nara marude hitori asobi |
時よ止まれ今は あなたに酔いしれて | toki yo tomare ima wa anata ni yoi shirete |
揺れる鼓動一つ一つを 刻み付けてたい | yureru kodou hitotsu hitotsu o kizamitsuketetai |
とどまれ熱く濡れ 打ち付ける昂まりに | todomare atsuku nure uchitsukeru takamari ni |
