Background[]

"World's End Dance Hall" is an original song by wowaka and is one of his most notable songs. It was uploaded to YouTube on September 4, 2017. It's also wowaka's first work with Luka.

On April 17, 2019 it has entered the Hall of Myths, reaching over 10 million views and becoming one of the most well-known and popular Vocaloid duets. It is the first song featuring Luka to enter the Hall of Myths.

Like in other wowaka songs, the lyrics are vague and open to many interpretations. One being that it is about the 'world's end' and 2 lovers that eventually commit suicide at the end of the song.

Lyrics[]

Japanese (日本語歌詞) Romaji (ローマ字)
冗談混じりの境界線上 joudan-majiri no kyoukaisen-jou
階段のそのまた向こう kaidan no sono mata mukou
全然良いこともないし、ねえ zenzen ii koto mo nai shi nee
その手を引いてみようか? sono te o hiite miyou ka

散々躓いたダンスを、 sanzan tsumazuita dansu o
そう、祭壇の上で踊るの? sou saidan no ue de odoru no
呆然に目が眩んじゃうから bouzen ni me ga kuranjau kara
どうでしょう、一緒にここで! dou deshou issho ni koko de

甲高い声が部屋を埋めるよ kandakai koe ga heya o umeru yo
最低な意味を渦巻いて saitei na imi o uzumaite
当然、良いこともないし touzen ii koto mo nai shi
さあ、思い切り吐き出そうか saa omoikiri hakidasou ka

「短い言葉で繋がる意味を "mijikai kotoba de tsunagaru imi o
顔も合わせずに毛嫌う理由(わけ)を kao mo awasezu ni kegirau wake o
さがしても sagashite mo
さがしても sagashite mo
見つからないけど mitsukaranai kedo

はにかみながら怒ったって hanikaminagara okotta tte
目を伏せながら笑ったって me o fusenagara waratta tte
そんなの、どうせ、つまらないわ!」 sonna no douse tsumaranai wa"

ホップ・ステップで踊ろうか hoppu suteppu de odorou ka
世界の隅っこでワン・ツー sekai no sumikko de wan-tsuu
ちょっとクラッとしそうになる終末感を楽しんで chotto kuratto shisou ni naru shuumatsukan o tanoshinde

パッとフラッと消えちゃいそな patto furatto kiechaiso na
次の瞬間を残そうか tsugi no shunkan o nokosou ka
くるくるくるくるり 回る世界に酔う kuru-kuru-kuru-kururi mawaru sekai ni you

傍観者だけの空間。 boukansha dake no kuukan
レースを最終電車に乗り込んで、 reesu o saishuu densha ni norikonde
「全然良いこともないし、 "zenzen ii koto mo nai shi
ねえ、この手を引いてみようか?」 nee kono te o hiite miyou ka"

なんだかいつもと違う。 nan da ka itsumo to chigau
運命のいたずらを信じてみる。 unmei no itazura o shinjite miru
散々躓いたダンスを、 sanzan tsumazuita dansu o
そう、思い切り馬鹿にしようか sou omoikiri baka ni shiyou ka

「つまらん動き繰り返す意味を "tsumaran ugoki kurikaesu imi o
音に合わせて足を踏む理由(わけ)を oto ni awasete ashi o fumu wake o
さがしても sagashite mo
さがしても sagashite mo
見つからないから mitsukaranai kara

悲しいときに踊りたいの kanashii toki ni odoritai no
泣きたいときに笑いたいの」 nakitai toki ni waraitai no"
そんなわがまま疲れちゃうわ! sonna wagamama tsukarechau wa

ポップにセンスを歌おうか poppu ni sensu o utaou ka
世界、俯いちゃう前に sekai utsumuichau mae ni
キュッとしちゃった心の音をどうぞ。 kyutto shichatta kokoro no ne o douzo
まだまだ忘れないわ。 mada mada wasurenai wa

なんて綺麗な眺めなんでしょうか! nante kirei na nagame na n deshou ka
ここから見える風景 koko kara mieru fuukei
きっと何一つ変わらないから、 kitto nani hitotsu kawaranai kara
枯れた地面を這うの。 kareta jimen o hau no

ホップ・ステップで踊ろうか hoppu suteppu de odorou ka
世界の隅っこでワン・ツー sekai no sumikko de wan-tsuu
ちょっとクラッとしそうになる終末感を楽しんで chotto kuratto shisou ni naru shuumatsukan o tanoshinde

パッとフラッと消えちゃいそな patto furatto kiechaiso na
次の瞬間を残そうか tsugi no shunkan o nokosou ka
さよなら、お元気で。 sayonara ogenki de
終わる世界に言う owaru sekai ni iu

Below is an official English translation: via Producer's approval. Amendments may have been made to the original translation. —Written by Lasah, a japanese vocalist and lyricist, this version of the song was used in the Mikunopolis in Los Angeles concert. This version used mainly Luka's voice.

Cross the borderline of black and white
And climb the stairway, up and up we go
Nothing good to do, just bored to death
Hey, can I take your hand and steal you away?
Step and stumble, do you want to go on?
Don't you worry, the altar is our floor
Toss and turn, and dizzy up ourselves, and
Keep on dancing, you and me right here now

Bury the room with all the shrill calls, voices
Swirl the senses, down and down we go
Nothing good to do, just bored to tears
Hey, why don't we make a clean breast of it now?

Find the meaning of connecting with these simple words
Reason of disliking without seeing hers
Finding it, finding it, no meaning, no reason
I gnash my teeth with my face smiling shy
I smile with my eyes shut and everything black
I don't want to bore myself with all of that nonsense!

Hop and step, may I have this dance?
This is the world's end, shall we do the 'one, two'?
Drink in all of this apocalyptism
How about a little taste of daze, and
Tick and tack, the moment's moving on
Shoot now, say cheese, our time is running out
Round and round and going round and round
Intoxicate, the world's getting high

A spatial just for you bystanders
Jump in the terminal, let's start the race
Nothing good to do, just bored to death
Hey, can I take your hand and steal you away?
Something seems to be unusual, wrong
Shall we believe in what is called "our fate"?
Step and stumble, do you want to go on?
No, no, how about making a fool of ourselves?

Find the meaning of repeating all these foolish moves
Reason to make steps as the music grooves
Finding it, finding it, no meaning, no reason
I just want to dance when I need a little blue
I just want to laugh when I need a little tear
I don't want to hear anymore of that ego!

Pop and sense, may I have this song?
Before the world's end, shall we sing the 'un, deux'?
My heart, it's yours, can you hear the beat?
No, no, not yet, I won't forget how
Oh my, look and see, what a lovely view!
There and there, the world's a monochrome highway
Crawl and creep, not a single piece will move
Anyhow, it's dead, nothing's going to change

Hop and step, may I have this dance?
This is the world's end, shall we do the 'one, two'?
Drink in all of this apocalyptism
How about a little taste of daze, and
Tick and tack, the moment's moving on
Shoot now, say cheese, our time is running out
Farewell, so long, have a nice day
Goodbye to this world's end dancehall
