Armored Core OST Lyrics Decryption

[Extended]

Not sure if anyone cares, but I've been listening too much of Armored Core OST's and was trying to understand what is said in some of the songs, so I've attempted to decrypt some of the songs. However some of the songs have official lyrics, so i'm not sure if these are exactly correct.

 

I'm pretty sure the broken English is correct though.

 

Anyways here's the Google Drive folder where i'll be posing them.
Edit Feb 27 2023: I've updated the link.

You might be able to get Kota Hoshino to post some lyrics on his twitter account.

 

Here's a couple I had saved:

 

~Remember~

Oh, I'm scary.

So I'm scary.

All that I see.

Now, I'm scary.

All is fantasy.

All is fantasy.

 

 

~Thinker~

I'm a thinker, I could break it down.

I'm a shooter, drastic baby.

Agitate jump out feel it in the will.

Can you talk about deep sea with me?

 

Deep sea fish loves you forever.

All are as you're thinking over

Out of space when someone waits there

Sound of jet they play for out

[Py687]

If you want the official lyrics, https://drive.google...bkU&usp=sharing will help you immensely. These took me the entire day to find and download (they're booklet scans from the Japanese physical CD), but I'm satisfied on finally knowing the actual lyrics as written by Kota Hoshino himself.

For “Thinker,” several fan interpretations can be found on YouTube. These aren't official, but they're damn good attempts.

 

Replacing the “deep sea-fish” line:

Can you shelter stars forever?

All of us, you’re thinking over

All the children waiting somewhere

All the children pray for you

 

And a second interpretation, replacing the “agitate and jump out” line:

As we jump out,

Feel it in the will.

Come together, peacefully with me!

Did you think this love would last forever?

Only as you’re thinking over.

Out of space where someone waits there;

Sounds of children playing in the fallout.

din't

 

that means i am real forever

[Shirtless Crackhead]

I played a lot of Armored Core, I don't remember any goddamn lyrics.

[The Talentless]

I read an article a while back that said it was electronic gibberish meant to sound like words. I'm much too lazy to try and find that same article again, though.

 

Then again, this was probably for songs pre-AC4

[Shirtless Crackhead]

Ya there's some like muddled gibberish but it's like chanting to AC game music.

[YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR]

PRETTY MUCH HUH

[Bakuhatsu Pengin]

deep sea fish loves you forever

[YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR]

words to live by my guy

[Shirtless Crackhead]

Just say it into a fan or whatever.

[SUMERIAN BLOOD GOD]

deep sea fish loves you forever

 

the ol' chilean sea bass glory hole

[YUNG MASTERLESS GLENCOUR]

[Shirtless Crackhead]

 

Almost as rare as the legendary hog wash.
