Background[]
"Tricologe" is an original song by Niru Kajitsu performed by flower. The song tells the story of a woman who is trapped in an abusive relationship with a demon. The song's lyrics can also be taken as an allegory for the struggles endured by Yoisaki Kanade and Asahina Mafuyu.
This song was commissioned for 25-ji, Nightcord de. from the game Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat. Hatsune Miku.
The flower version has surpassed 4 million views on YouTube while the Miku version has entered the Hall of Fame.
While originally being commissioned for Project SEKAI, the song is the first chapter in Niru Kajitsu’s music video trilogy "Sou・Heaven & Hell", which was inspired by the tragic tale of Orpheus and Eurydice and follows the story of Yuuri and Oulu. The song is succeeded by "Heaven Dope" and "YOMI", the latter of which is the final chapter in the trilogy.[1]

|---|---|
| この生活の虜になっちゃうよLady | kono seikatsu no toriko ni nacchau yo Lady |
| 光を失ったおさがりの宝石を | hikari o ushinatta osagari no houseki o |
| 永久に纏ってく | tokoshie ni matotteku |
| 救われたあの日から | sukuwareta ano hi kara |
| 救いが義務になるなんて | sukui ga gimu ni naru nante |
| まるでフィクショントレパネーション | marude fikushon torepaneeshon |
| 受けた気分になってんだ | uketa kibun ni natte nda |
| 足枷と腐りに縛られて | ashikase to kusari ni shibararete |
| たった一度の光出会うため | tatta ichido no hikari deau tame |
| この部屋でずっと忘れた | kono heya de zutto wasureta |
| 何かを待つ囚人 | nanika o matsu shuujin |
| 出されたものは 満遍なく 残さず平らげて | dasareta mono wa manbennaku nokosazu tairagete |
| 優等生な屍人 誰よりも無個性だった | yuutousei na shibito dare yori mo mukosei datta |
| 住めば都って暗い歌 また何度も何度も吐き捨てて | sumeba miyako tte kurai uta mata nando mo nando mo hakisutete |
| 挙句の果て食べる行為が それ自体が苦手になった | ageku no hate taberu koui ga sore jitai ga nigate ni natta |
| 夜中ふと目に映った | yonaka futo me ni utsutta |
| きらめく仮面の舞踏会 | kirameku kamen no budoukai |
| 馬鹿らしいほどに | bakarashii hodo ni |
| 狂おしいほどに | kuruoshii hodo ni |
| 年甲斐も無く惹き込まれたら | toshigai mo naku hikikomaretara |
| この生活の虜になっちゃうよLady | kono seikatsu no toriko ni nacchau yo Lady |
| 『よく似合ってる』ってさ | “yoku niatteru” tte sa |
| 『おあつらえ向き』ってさ | “oatsuraemuki” tte sa |
| その後のことは見向きもしないくせに | sono go no koto wa mimuki mo shinai kuse ni |

| 他愛もないことでしょう | taai mo nai koto deshou |
| 少し欠けてるピンクオパール | sukoshi kaketeru pinkuopaaru |
| 迷子になったアイオライト | maigo ni natta aioraito |
| 埃を被るトパーズ | hokori o kaburu topaazu |
| 孤独なアメトリンもみんな | kodoku na ametorin mo minna |
| それぞれ着飾って | sorezore kikazatte |
| 濁って重くなってって | nigotte omoku natte tte |
| 奈落の底の牢屋に | naraku no soko no rouya ni |
| 沈んでいくとしても | shizunde iku to shite mo |
| ああ 訪れた幸せがほら | aa otozureta shiawase ga hora |
| 祝祭日みたいに既に決められた予定調和で | shukusaijitsu mitai ni sude ni kimerareta yoteichouwa de |
| 一瞬で失せてしまう 慰めでも構わないよと | isshun de usete shimau nagusame demo kamawanai yo to |
| 希望有りきの絶望にさ 依存 依存 | kibou ariki no zetsubou ni sa izon izon |

| あなたも虜でしょう | anata mo toriko deshou |
I’ll be a prisoner of this life, Lady
This cast-off jewel has already lost its light
but I’ll wear it forever
Since the day I was saved,
salvation has become my duty
It’s like a fiction
I feel as if I have undergone the trepanation
I’m bound by shackles and corruption
only to see the light once
A prisoner in this room waiting for something long forgotten
I ate everything that was served to me
An honor student,
or a corpse, more boring than anyone else
A sad song, “To every bird, his own nest is beautiful”
Again and again, I spit it out
And after all that, the act of eating…
I’m not good at it anymore
In the middle of the night, I suddenly saw
a glittering, masquerade ball
It was ridiculous,
it was crazy
I was drawn to it unbecoming to my age, and…
I’ll be a prisoner of this life, Lady
They say, “It suits you”
“Perfect for you”
They don’t care about what comes after
I’ll be a prisoner of this life,
Lady Lady
Even the pain, even the unhealed wounds,
all of them are the ordeals I have to go through to survive
It’s just nothing
A little chipped “pink opal”
a lost “Iolite”
a “topaz” covered in dust
and a lonely “ametrine”
all dressed up in their own way,
and become cloudy and heavy
Even though they’re sinking into the prison of the abyss
Oh, the happiness that came to me, like a national holiday
It’s already set in stone, as scheduled
I don't care if it's a placebo that'll go away in an instant
I dependent… dependent on hopeful despair
I’ll be a prisoner of this life, Lady
“Someday your efforts will bear fruit” “You’ll be accepted”
Fooling yourself with comforting spells
The end of this life is just around the corner,
Lady Lady
Envy, jealousy, onlookers, inferiority, even the honor,
all of them are the ordeals we have to go through to survive
We have no choice
I’ll be a prisoner of this life, Lady
I don’t need any more of that bland, generic jewelry
Now, even the cloud is beautiful
Let’s be the prisoner of this life,
Lady Lady
“Old-fashioned”…
“It’s not worth the money”…
Words that don’t strike a chord with me are useless
I’ve become a prisoner of this life,
Lady Lady
It’s okay to have pain
and secrets you can’t tell
Those are what we wear to live, right?
They’re all not that hard
Lady Lady...
You’re a prisoner too, aren’t you?
