These are my English trans-lyrics for Swap out from Caligula Effect 2. I adore this song so much. It’s such a bop, and it fits Mu-kun’s character so well. These lyrics are for the remix boss battle version, but the lyrics are the same, just the remix has a few more repeated lyrics.

All this borrowed satisfaction
Set it free so, your charms show
Everything you touch is filling with your hopes and dreams
Grant this clever trick-star
The chance for a new start
I wanna go back and tell myself in the past
“Oh, dear boy”
“(I know that you can reach the stars someday)”
“I mean you, real boy”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
Grab envy that is enough
To replace your lack of self-love
My signature ingredient in all I do
The pain is just temporary
Even if you think it’s scary
Your body gets used to it soon
Most things are so easy now really
That’s right, so let’s keep dancing like this
Feel all the power since
We joined forces with these pieces
I will draw you in, just follow me
So c’mon, and see
All this borrowed satisfaction
Set it free so, your charms show
Everything you touch is filling with your hopes and dreams
Grant this clever trick-star
The chance for a new start
I wanna go back and tell myself in the past
“Oh, dear boy”
“(I know that you can reach the stars someday)”
“I mean you, real boy”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
Counting down the days I’m waiting
In the meantime, just keep living
Leave everything a dream for now, so far so good
But with or without you there to
See all the excess wonder too
The world does what it thinks it should
I know that nothing has changed now really
We’re professionals at deflection
See how the other side is
Becoming rich from all the fraud’s wits
Going back, it would stay the same thing
So c’mon, and see
All this borrowed satisfaction
It’s a clever, world for sure
Bet it’s from superficials feeling special
In the end we will all get
What’s the shortest end of the stick
So now I have written in the epilogue this
“Oh, dear boy”
“(I know you could have reached the stars someday)
“I mean you, real boy”
“(I want to think you’re special in every way)”
Time and time again, we can’t see ourselves somehow
Until we’ve circled back around
Maybe all our promises were too vague, but now
There’s just no way to find, out
All this borrowed satisfaction
Set it free so, your charms show
Everything you touch is filling with your hopes and dreams
Grant this clever trick-star
The chance for a new start
I wanna go back and tell myself in the past
“Oh, dear boy”
“(I know that you can reach the stars someday)”
“I mean you, real boy”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
“Uh-oh, oh, dear boy”
“(Set it free so, your charms show)”
“Uh-oh, you, real boy”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
“(I know you are special in every way)”
