Now let me open the scar, as the virus settles in
Painting that rainbow with black ink, I will fly, ah

Soaked in nectar of flowers, it lies there, a mysterious noise
Creeping up in my chest it asks if I wish to be reborn

Endlessly, right inside, is resting this paradigm
(It's) been corroding my heart all this time

Now let me open the scar, as the virus settles in
All my instincts are buried bare beneath
Grew up in the loneliness, a broken reality
Painting that rainbow with black ink, I will fly, ah

And I know that I can break out from this maze of madness
Invert the colors and leave it all behind me

A form reflected in blue glass
Sends a smile trembling up my throat
Looking into reflections I can't tell
If that's me at all

I'm changing into a monster
We will let each other down, it is just one more deeply falling process
Is this my insanity?
Even that question alone proves just how blind and famished I feel
I can't breathe

And I leaped right into the world, wasn't even thinking
It's like a paradox, I feel it within me

Live it up, live it up, live it up
I'm awake again, so
Live it up, live it up, live it up
My emotions (are) spilling out at will

Now let me open the scar, as the virus settles in
It feels like I'm reborn with my instincts
Grew up in the loneliness, a restored reality
No matter what I will seek more

Can't go back
This cruel paradox, it has been bleached of all its many colors
Yes, this is my sanity; can't believe I'm finally free
Painting that rainbow with black ink, I will fly, ah

And I know that I can break out from this maze of madness
Invert the colors and leave it all behind me
Right into the world, wasn't even thinking
It's like a paradox, I feel it within me
Standing on the edge of this raging vortex
I'll expose the light and embrace the darkness

"Paradisus-Paradoxum" is here, probably the darkest song of the bunch! Did you guys like my version? Let me know what you think!

You just dropped one of the best covers around, and people had 3 years to make 'em.

[Maple_]

yo that "Live it up" part sounded fantastic, I love this so much.

[SonicShowsGuy]

I'm so happy you're doing all the Re: Zero covers, this was amazing. I live the lyrics so much, it really represents Subaru's decaying mindset as the series progresses and he auditions more and moves for a Thousand Ways to Die. Also when you dang "fly", mmph! I'm sad that the Re: Zero covers are almost over, hope you'll consider doing the season 2 songs when it comes out!

[gregorythorne]

I love how well you stay true to the original lyrics while still making them work with the rhythm even in English. It is the sign of a Great Artist

[FlameEMT]

Why is this so good!!! Looking foward to your stay alive cover

This is a really good cover and this got recommended right at the same day where ep 7 is getting released

[seabass]

Ngl didn’t expect it to be a rock cover but it actually works really well good job dude

[Otherversian]

Hot damn, finally, a *good* Paradisus-Paradoxum english cover that's available on spotify! Amazing work!

[hammerstargamez]

Just played this cover over the opening instead of the original song and it was far more entertaining than it should've been.

[gryphon]

My favorite isekai's best op finally has a great english cover. Cant wait for the 2nd ed.

[Incogit]

I suppose you are one of the best covermaker on the whole of Youtube. And even more. I can report you are making English more popular in such Slavic country like Russia :) I like this song. So go on! (Удачи)
