Title: Prisoner



奪われたのは　この瞳だけじゃない
危険な純粋さ　ボクでさえ持て余していた
時間と狂気(こころ)だけになって　いつしか迷い込むMAZE
キミを呼ぶ声は　愛しさあふれるほど
悲しく響くよ

I'm prisoner in paradise
ボクの闇に突き刺さったキミは
I'm prisoner in paradise
永遠に　抜けない光棘(とげ)
残酷なほど美しい愛に　閉じ込められてしまったよ

抱きしめるたび　無傷ではいられない
その指先はまるで　氷のようにah冷たくて
頬を伝う温かい雫　ボクから自由を奪う
天国や地獄　今さら居場所なんか
求めてないよな

I'm prisoner in paradise
ボクの嘘を真(まこと)にするキミは
I'm prisoner in paradise
永遠に　醒めない呪縛(ゆめ)
無意味な鎖　禁じられた欲望(ふかみ)に
どこまで落ちてゆけばいい?

I'm prisoner in paradise
ボクの闇に突き刺さったキミは
I'm prisoner in paradise
永遠に　抜けない光棘(とげ)
残酷なほど美しい愛に　ボクの命を捧げるよ

[romanji lyrics]

ubawareta no wa kono hitomi dake janai
kiken na junsui sa BOKU de sae moteamashite ita
jikan to kokoro dake ni natte itsushika mayoikomu MAZE
KIMI wo yobu koe wa itoshisa afureru hodo

I’m prisoner in paradise
BOKU no yami ni tsukisasatta KIMI wa
I’m prisoner in paradise
eien ni nukenai toge
zankoku na hodo utsukushii ai ni tojikomerarete shimatta yo

dakishimeru tabi mukizu de wa irarenai

I’m prisoner in paradise
BOKU no uso wo makoto ni suru KIMI wa

I’m prisoner in paradise
BOKU no yami ni tsukisasatta KIMI wa
I’m prisoner in paradise
eien ni nukenai toge
zankoku na hodo utsukushii ai ni BOKU no inochi wo sasageru yo

[english translation]

it's not just my eyes that you stole
i was overwhelmed by this unadulterated danger
it's become nothing but time and my heart
you penetrate the darkness that surrounds me it is perplexed unnoticed and the voice which calls MAZE you who are packed is dear

i'm a prisoner in paradise
a thorn that cannot be removed.I'm prisoner in paradise the light which it does not come out eternally 棘 (accomplishing) were shut in cruel extent beautiful love

i'm wounded each time we embrace
your fingers, they're as cold ...ah... as ice
the warm teardrops on my cheeks...
they steal from me.

As for you who make I'm prisoner in paradise my lie true (truth) I'm prisoner in paradise the spell (dream) meaningless chain which does not awaken eternally in the desire

i'm a prisoner in paradise
a thorn that cannot be removed. I'm prisoner in paradise the light which it does not come out eternally 棘 (accomplishing) lift up my life to cruel extent beautiful love

then there's my nails i prepared for kyoko.
argh speaking of the shoot on friday, it was really vexing. spent 3 hours to prepare only to arrive at the scene of rain. and got my gown all dirty and brownish at the edges. good thing there's still the home-made in house studio shots. hope it turns out well...

and i lost one of these nails!! T.T

chained these beads up while i was watching you are beautiful. (go mi nam, you must be tired of living. taekyung is so cute. so is shinwoo and jeremy. <3)

didn't have enough purple beads.. so i mixed in pink ones. seriously they look quite awful.


added the clip at the back


oh well. thinking of how i can still improve on this. bleahs.

i can't think of anyway to position this drape so that it looks good, so what the heck.

but the point is, it looks better when worn, so there. HOHO.

aye yes i'm not sure why i decide to blog on a sunday. but i'm probably too bored and i need a rest from watching fushigi yuugi. and i'm angry because the author freaking killed one of the suzaku seven. yeah.. i know it was forewarned in the ending trailer... and in the title as well, but you know. even harutoki carried on for 4 series without anyone of the hachiyous being killed! it's devastating. sighhs. not to mention an entire family got killed off just some episodes ago. i can't stand the blows. gahhh.

so here's the kyoko progress for today.


i managed to dismantle the sleeve parts, cut the top sleeve a little shorter and attached some more chiffon to make the cross strapped thing.


the lace details is also moved to the edge instead of underneath the chiffon like before


and the back looks cross strapped now.


at least the sleeves don't fall off my shoulders as easily as before. and i think the back can be worn as the front. lols.

and i took to starting my kyoko too. at least i kinda learn how to do those scrunch backs (use elastic string for bobbin and normal thread for the top part and sew). not very hard. used like 2m for the inner dress.



the top part needs to be fixed though.

tried to sew the sleeves like 5 times. and i might sew it again because right now it keeps slipping off my shoulders. and i forgot to include the long sleeve at the beginning, so had to detach and resew.







(ah yes i used scrunchy for the sleeves too! whee!) i'm glad i got to use all the leftover cloth i cut wrongly for the skirt as my sleeves. got about 5m of white satin altogether for the sleeves and outer dress.

here's the outer dress. had to buy extra cloth for the cascading part for this one. think i cut it like 4 times before i got it right. even know it still looks weird. maybe satin is not the right material.

i got addicted to skip beat! and finally found the dress that i think i can make and adore xD
plus, the main character mogami kyoko is really someone to be admired. wow. thinking of getting people to do the angel devil pv from sho's prisoner song. i looooove fuwa sho's outfit here too!! but it's sooooo complicated. gosh.
(anyway here's one of the better videos that capture almost all parts of how the mtv should be like)


and the angel in question i'm planning to do







some more in depth details i captured




and yes... i've already gotten some if not most of the materials for the dress!! yay~~~
