- ―Narrator[src]
Torture Tower Doesn't Sleep is a song released by Akuno-P on July 26, 2013. It follows three sisters who live within a dark tower, capturing and torturing evil people for the sake of their father and their god.
Plot[]
Sitting by a polluted lake, a massive tower holds the secret to immortality on its highest floor. Guarding this secret are three sisters, Gibbet, Rack, and Maiden, preying upon those who attempt to steal it for themselves. Their father, Sir Torture, passed on his will to his daughters: offer sacrifices to the ugly god, and their wishes will be granted. The three girls justify their actions as bringing punishment down on sinners. One day, however, a clown claims that Sir Torture had no daughters, with the only things left in the abandoned tower being the torture devices he loved so much. The sisters continue their killing, noting that the pain they cause will continue on forever.

穢れし湖の下
築かれし魔性の塔
最上階に眠ってる
不死の命への秘密
そこに住まいし三姉妹
ジベット ラック そしてメイデン
欲深き侵入者は
彼女らの餌食となる
長女が吊るし
次女が伸ばして
三女が中に閉じ込める
嘆き 叫び 響け 虚空に
拷問塔は眠らない
大丈夫 あなたの魂は
救われないから
偉大な父の遺志継いで
姉妹はお務めを果たす
大丈夫 痛みが続くのは
永遠のことだから
拷問卿と呼ばれた父
彼が愛した娘達
醜き神に捧げよ
奪い取った魂を
神が蘇りし時
姉妹の願いも叶う
罪には罰を与えよ
それは決して悪ではない
ジベットが吊るし
ラックが伸ばして
メイデンが中に閉じ込める
嘆き 叫び 響け 大地に
拷問塔は眠らない
大丈夫 あなたの肉体は
消滅するから
汚れた魂じゃなけりゃ
神は決して喜ばない
大丈夫 苦しみはいつしか
快楽に変わるから
街角の道化師が語る
拷問卿に娘はいない
塔にあるのは
彼が遺した拷問具だけだと
誰かが苦しむ姿を
拷問卿は喜んだ
痛いことは良いことなんだ
彼女たちは疑わない
嘆き 叫び 響け 虚空に
拷問塔は眠らない
大丈夫 痛みが続くのは
永遠のことだから

There's a magic tower built
By a polluted lake
Sleeping on the highest floor
Is the secret to immortality
Three sisters live inside
Gibbet, Rack, and Maiden
Greedy trespassers
Become their prey
The eldest sister strings them up
The middle sister stretches them
And then the youngest sister locks them inside
Let your lamentations and screams resound to the empty sky
Torture Tower doesn't sleep
Don't worry, for your soul
Can not be saved
Inheriting their great father's will
The sisters carry out their duty
Don't worry, for your pain
Will continue on forever
Their father, Sir Torture
And the daughters he'd loved
They must offer up to the ugly god
The souls they've plundered
When the god has been revived
The sisters' wish will also be granted
They must grant punishment for sin
That's certainly not evil
Gibbet strings them up
Rack stretches them
And then Maiden locks them inside
Let your lamentations and screams resound to the earth
Torture Tower doesn't sleep
Don't worry, for your body
Will be annihilated
If it's not a dirtied soul
Then it certainly wouldn't please their god
Don't worry, for your suffering
Will one day turn to pleasure
A clown on the street corner says:
Sir Torture had no daughters
The only things in that tower
Are the torture devices he left behind
Sir Torture was pleased
With the sight of someone suffering
Pain is a good thing
And the girls don't question that
Let your lamentations and screams resound to the empty sky
Torture Tower doesn't sleep
Don't worry, for your pain
Will continue on forever

Trivia[]
Conceptualization and Origin[]
- The song was first conceptualized as part of the main Evillious Chronicles world, but mothy eventually decided to use VY1 in an attempt to distance the song from his main project.
- Mothy wrote the original version of the song two years before its full release.
- The song's English title, "Torture Moira," references the Moirai, also known as the Fates, who were three sisters that personified the concept of fate. Additionally, each Moirai had a specific role, mirroring the individual roles that Gibbet, Rack, and Maiden hold.
