Blood-Stained Switch is a song released by
Akuno-P on December 4, 2012. It follows the story of a girl who suffers from a serious medical condition: Hereditary Evil Raiser Syndrome.
Plot
The story takes place as a girl explains that she is not responsible for the death of her father and that it was another her. Suffering from the Hereditary Evil Raiser Syndrome, the girl insists that she loved her father and always watched him as he worked and obeyed him when she was told not to touch the switch. However, the other her came out and pressed the switch instead. As the song progresses, the medical journal by the doctors watching her is displayed, along with the girl's personal diary. At the end of the song, she begs not to be given the injection, saying that she doesn't want it.

Lyrics
スイッチを押したのは 私ではないのです
今日の朝 私がとっても大好きな優しいパパが
ぐちゃぐちゃな血と肉片の塊になりました
工場で働くパパの仕事ぶり それを見ているのが楽しくて
毎日のように見学に来てました
赤いスイッチは とても危険だから
押してはいけないという 言いつけも守ってました
スイッチを押したのは 私ではないのです
スイッチを押したのは もう一人の私なんです
いい子でいようと あれほど決めたのに
どうしてあなたは 勝手なことするの？
ねえ先生 パパが死んだのは オルターエゴのせいなのです
先生がくれた 青と白の錠剤を
飲んでいればスイッチは 入らないって言ってたじゃない
スイッチを押したのは 私ではないのです
入れ替わるスイッチは いつの間にか押されていたの
生まれた時から私の中には
殺したがりの彼女が根付いていたのです
スイッチを押したのは 私ではないのです
スイッチを押したのは もう一人の彼女なんだから
私は悪くない
私は悪くない
私は悪くない
私は悪くない
私は悪くない
私は悪くない
だからその注射は打たないで
その注射は嫌いなのよ

Trivia
Conceptualization and Origin
- The Japanese word チミドロ (chimidoro), aside from meaning "bloodstained", means "desperate struggle", referring to the girl's struggle against her other, evil personality.
- The word "switch" has a double meaning; the girl would sometimes "switch" between her two personalities, with "blood-stained" results.
- Because there were no ties period-wise to his other existing songs during that time, mothy purposefully chose the default outfit for MAYU as the design for the character.[1]
Curiosities
- The song also makes use of color for symbolism, with red having negative connotations and blue having positive ones; a similar color symbolism is used in Full Moon Laboratory.
