Doppelgangers? Those things... aren't supposed to exist, right?
Sorry for not uploading as much as I used to, I promise it'll change soon. Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day and a happy Chinese New Year, if you celebrate it!
The Bookmark of Demise Project has always been my favourite vocaloid song series ever since it came out in 2012. Each song is based off of a scary Japanese urban legend, with this one being about doppelgangers, which is something like a copy of yourself. Rumour has it that you will die three days after seeing your doppelganger.
Shuuenpro is really dark compared to Kagepro, but trust me, it's worth reading. And you can read the manga, novel, and the other song translations on the shuuen-scans tumblr!

I know I didn't do much justice to the song, but I had a lot of fun singing it, even if I did end up almost screaming in the end!! The lyrics were also fun to write, especially the bridge. Can you guess what the 3 ※s are?
It's a high-tempo desperate sort of song, so I hope you enjoy the last three days of B-ko's life u wu
On a completely unrelated note, Zero's back and mixing again! His mixes are always so saikouuu

✻ Lyrics ✻ (use them as you wish!)
One day I heard a rumour going around about imposters at bay
“Yes today, two people will look just the same ＾q＾”
That’s what the forecast said for the day —
Yesterday I saw it talking in your place
Your look alike, your real fake
But it all seemed like a stupid story so
I pretended not to hear the case
Yet somewhere, I felt it moving into somewhere strange, in this familiar world
Playing hide and seek
“Shadows”, so to speak
Writing, incomplete
People vanishing
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me that everything is just a lie (right?)
It’s just a doppelganger, it’s a lying stranger
Imitating stories little children make
It acts like I’m an idiot, and it won’t stop with it
Contaminating all their fairy tales
Spinning and spinning, her story goes
"A girl who thinks those stories are real"
Yet no one believes in me, they won’t listen to me
Tell me why is it so!
Ah, and with a whimsy brush, it’s painted yet again
The Grim Reaper’s game of tag
One day I heard a rumour going around about imposters at bay
“(A)gain today, two people will look just the same ＾q＾”
That’s what the dumb forecast said today —
“Yeah I saw it talking in that place again!”
The look alike, the real fake
In three days, this game will all be over
So I can’t believe anything they say
Fairy tales like this usually end in certain death at the hands of a god with bright red eyes
And so it begins
Just how will it end?
Who’s this story for?
What’s the killing for?
Wait, please; wait, please; wait, please; wait, please
Shall we start it now?
It is a doppelganger, it’s a lying stranger?
But conforms to things that little children know
All of the cynicism and the mean sarcasm
I don’t know which one is real anymore
Spinning and spinning, her story goes
A lonely war, step forward and fight
Since you are a player now, try not to fall down
Why are you doing this, why?
No, you can’t reset it anymore, try and run even more
From the Grim Reaper’s game of tag
I can smell it near, ※’s shadow’s here
You didn’t write it down, you forgot your ※
I can see the end, this maze I’m in
Don’t wanna ※
Don’t wanna ※
Shadow tag, it is the shadow’s win
Conforming to the dreams that little children know
It acts like I’m an idiot, and it won’t stop with it
I’m not the fake, so please just stop it now!
Spinning and spinning, my story goes
A sure scenario of demise
Yet no one believes in me, they won’t listen to me
“Will someone please— (come and save me now)”
Doppelganger, don’t you call me stranger
And forgetting not, it’s just a children’s dream
All of the cynicism and the mean sarcasm
I’ve stopped so why’s it happening to me?
Spinning and spinning, the story stops -
The bookmark and the book’s together
Hey, is it all over now?
Cat and the bookmark?
Guess this is really my “game over”
See you again?
