Lyrics[]
Mou kanzen ni migakiagete
Will no namida wa suitsukushite
Mou fukanzen na sukima wa nakute
Risou darake no Dystopia
Ei mo ai mo kaibutsu ni natte
Para Perfect na keisan
Boku wa eien ni "I" de irareru?
Gisou darake no Utopia
Will no namida wa suitsukushite
"A" to "I" ga suitsukushite
Boku wo nozoite yo
Naraberarete kuraberarete
Boku wa ima "I" wo midasenai
Domestic Domestic boku wa kimi no mono
Domestic Domestic motto shibatte
Domestic Domestic boku wa dare no mono?
Domestic Domestic motto abaite
Shiawase tte kono jiyuu tte
Moshikashite uso ja nai yo ne
Mou kanzen ni migakiagete
Kill no yokan wa suitsukushite
Mou fukanzen na sukima wa nakute
Risou darake no Dystopia
Bokura no mirai wa kanpeki na iro wo egakare
Subete no kotae to kokoro ga Yes to sakenda
Mirai to bokura no kuuhaku wo umenaide
Kotae to jiyuu ga kuchizuke wo kawashite shimatta no
Mae e narae no renzoku ga henshoku shite
Kusatta saibou wa kiritorarete
Kono azayaka na risouron wa
Nigotta gensou no naka ni attanda
Domestic Domestic boku wa kimi no mono
Amazing Amazing kanzen no kanchigai
Toumei to toumei to toumei to toumei wo
Kakeawashite nigotte shimatta
Kokoro to kokoro to kokoro to kokoro ga
Kanpeki ni nigotte shimatta
Toumei no shuugoutai
Tokumei no shuugoutai
Kainarashite mou kainarashite
Kieta kanjou ni "I" wo sashite
Domestic Domestic boku wa boku no mono
Yuganda kanseikei me wo samase yo
もう完全に磨き上げて
Willの涙は吸い尽くして
もう不完全な隙間は無くて
理想だらけのDystopia
永も愛も怪物になって
Para Perfectな計算
僕は永遠にIでいられる?
偽装だらけのUtopia
Willの涙は吸い尽くして
AとIが吸い尽くして
僕を覗いてよ
並べれれて 比べられて
僕は今Iを乱せない
Domestic Domestic 僕は君のもの
Domestic Domestic もっと縛って
Domestic Domestic 僕は誰のもの?
Domestic Domestic もっと暴いて
幸せって この自由って
もしかして 嘘じゃないよね
もう完全に磨き上げて
Killの予感は吸い尽くして
もう不完全な隙間は無くて
理想だらけのDystopia
僕らの未来は完璧な色を描かれ
すべての答えと心がYesと叫んだ
未来と僕らの空白を埋めないで
答えと自由が口づけを交わしてしまったの
前へ倣えの連続が変色して
腐った細胞は切り取られて
この鮮やかな理想論は
濁った幻想の中にあったんだ
Domestic Domestic 僕は君のもの
Amazing Amazing 完全の勘違い
透明と透明と透明と透明を
掛け合わして濁ってしまった
心と心と心と心が
完璧に濁ってしまった
透明の集合体
匿名の集合体
飼い馴らしてもう飼い馴らして
消えた感情にIを刺して
Domestic Domestic 僕は僕のもの
歪んだ完成形 目を醒ませよ
It's already perfectly polished
Soak up all the tears of Will
There are no more imperfect gaps
A Dystopia full of ideals
Eternity and love turn into monsters
A Para Perfect calculation
Can I stay "I" forever?
A Utopia full of disguises
Soak up all the tears of Will
"A" and "I" soak it all up
Peek into me
Arranged in a line and compared
Right now I can't disturb "I"
Domestic Domestic, I am your thing
Domestic Domestic, bind me down more
Domestic Domestic, whose thing am I?
Domestic Domestic, expose me more
Happiness, this freedom
Couldn't possibly be lies right?
It's already perfectly polished
Soak up all premonition of Kill
There are no more imperfect gaps
A Dystopia full of ideals
Perfect colors are painted in our future
All the answers and my mind screamed "Yes"
Don't fill up the blank space of the future and within us
The answer and freedom ended up exchanging kisses
The series of "emulate forward" change colors
The rotten cells are cut out
These brilliant idealistic thoughts
Were within an impure illusion
Domestic Domestic, I am your thing
Amazing Amazing, a perfect misunderstanding
Transparency and transparency and transparency and transparency are
Multiplied and ended up impure
The mind and mind and mind and mind
Perfectly ended up impure
An aggregation of transparencies
An aggregation of anonymities
Domesticate me, domesticate me already
Stab "I" into the vanished emotions
Domestic Domestic, I am my own thing
A distorted perfect form, come to your senses

Trivia[]
- There are about 45 seconds of 5 acoustic sequences in the song. These parts mimic a sound that can be thought of as the sound of lasers being fired.
- 345 (Miyoko Nakamura, female bassist and second vocalist of Ling tosite sigure) seems to pronounce " 'mestic " instead of domestic and " 'maging " instead of amazing.
- The setting of the song appears to be in a regulated "system" - be it physical (state/society) or perhaps even (semi-)virtual - the opening verse describes this (questionable) system polished up to perfection, without cracks/gaps that could undermine its ideologies. This is likely a reference to the Sibyl System.
- "A" and "I" are puns for 永 (ei = eternity) and 愛 (ai = love); as such, in some cases, "I" may ambiguously refer to I (oneself) or ai (love).
- "Domestic" specifically refers to taming/domestication (e.g. pets, livestock), and is reminiscent of sigure's usage of "tic" words (e.g. sadistic, masochistic, telecastic, chocolatic, plastic, etc).
