R.I.P. Goshippu no Umi

"I wanna live a peaceful and uneventful life (lol)On the other side of the screen is something that has nothing to do with me, some safe and secure co☆nt☆ent!"
R.I.P Gossip Sea (R.I.P.ゴシップの海 - R.I.P. Gossip no Umi) is a song by cosMo released on November 9th, 2015. It later appeared in an album named Gossip no Umi which was released on May 5th 2020. The costume design which appears in the music video and Gossip no Umi album cover was made by syuri22
== Plot ==
The song tells the story of a girl who is bored to death, she sees others who have alleviated the boredom with gossip. And she decides to take part in it as well. Slowly she develops an addiction to it, saying that it is more fun than any novel and more addictive than any music. Her addiction reaches a point where she feels no empathy for anyone, not even her friends who have been hurt by the gossip she spreads along with the others.
Some parts of the lyrics can be interpreted as the girl driving others to suicide through gossip. (Today too, our righteous indignation that won’t shut up will- Kill even people. and R.I.P. in the gossip sea - All of the salty losers are sinking.) This is even more tragic when you consider that it's not strangers being driven to suicide, but also her own friends as a result of the gossip she spreads.
Still though, despite everything, the girl just wants more gossip, more drama, more hurting and yelling. She wants to observe humans needlessly fight for her own entertainment.
== Lyrics ==
The english translation was done by MeaningfulUsername. The official music video (and previous revisions of the Vocaloid Lyrics page) has also english lyrics but those were made by Hazuki no Yume, but Hazuki no Yume does not want people to use their works anymore so it's best if you refrain from using their translation and instead use the one below.

誰も彼も必死になってさ
今日もあーでもこーでもないとり合い
まるではくたばるまでの
退屈しのぎだとでも言いたげだ
ボクは死んだ魚のような眼で
何も面白くないと勝手に絶望
じっとなりを潜め無様に
ポカンと口開けて思考停止
あゝ 不感症になってしまったボクが
探して探してたどりついた究極面白コン☆テン☆ツ
Ｈ・Ｕ・Ｍ・Ａ・Ｎ・人・間・様！！！！
人はそれを「ゴシップ」と呼ぶ
どんな小説よりも喜なり
人を呪わば穴二つ
娑婆のはくるくる廻る
程度に傷めつけ
無責任に手を合わせ
鳴り止むことない義憤は今日も人さえ
から垂れ流し
盲目節穴信じて踊って
信者との宗教戦争
で泣くは物言わぬ声
「アイツはひどい悪事働いた」
『オレはこんなに正しい主張をしている』
下手な勧善懲悪も霞む
ドン引きシナリオヒューマンドラマ
あゝ　平穏無事に生きていきたいな(笑)
画面の向こうの無関係な　安心安全コン☆テン☆ツ
Ｈ・Ｕ・Ｍ・Ａ・Ｎ・人・間・様！！！！
人はそれを「ゴシップ」と呼ぶ
どんな音楽より
人を呪わば無限大！！
娑婆の空気はお祭り騒ぎ
馬鹿担ぎ出し賑やかし
飽きたらストンと貶めて
楽しさに飢えるボクらは下卑た笑い求める
笑いすぎてほらOKOK！！
煽りすぎてほらOKOK！！
笑いすぎてほらOKOK！！
煽りすぎてほらOKOK！！
OKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOK
OKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOK
R.I.P.ゴシップの海
恨みつらみの敗者が沈む
かつて戦った悪友も
みんなこの海に沈んだんだ
(悲しいなぁ……)
(悲しいなぁ……っっっ！)
(悲しいなぁああ！！！！！)
＼ハイッ！！／なん☆ちゃっ☆てー
人はそれを「ゴシップ」と呼ぶ
どんな小説よりも喜なり
人を呪わば穴二つ
娑婆のはくるくる廻る
程度に傷めつけ
無責任に手を合わせ
鳴り止むことない義憤は今日も――
人さえ殺す
人はそれを「ゴシップ」と呼ぶ
どんな音楽より
人を呪わば無限大！！
娑婆の空気はお祭り騒ぎ
馬鹿担ぎ出し賑やかし
飽きたらストンと貶めて
楽しさに飢えるボクらは下卑た笑い求める
ずっとずっとずっと見ていたいんだ
ずっとずっとずっと人間様を
ずっとずっとずっと見ていたいんだ
ずっとずっとずっと人間様を
濁ったで見ていたい

Anyone and everyone is becoming frantic.
As usual, they’re ripping into each other for anything and everything.
It’s as though they wanna say that this corrupt world was meant
For staving off boredom until you kick the bucket.
As for me, with eyes as blank as those of a dead fish,
I selfishly despair, saying that “nothing’s interesting.”
In my unsightliness, quiet as a mouse but twice as still,
My jaw goes slack and I give up thinking for myself.
Aah, I, who’ve become totally indifferent,
Searched high and low until finally unearthing the ultimate buzzworthy co☆nt☆ent:
H-U-M-A-N BEINGS THEMSELVES!!!!
People call that kinda thing “gossip,”
But there’s more pleasure to be found in it than any novel.
When you curse someone, dig two graves.
The mood of “good and evil” in this world is spinning round and round.
Leave them wounded, but not so much that they’ll just "disappear,"
But if they do disappear, then pray for them while taking no responsibility.
Today too, our righteous indignation that won’t shut up will erase even people.
The dogma of “justice” discharges from our megaphones.
With blindness and bad eyes, they have faith in us and dance to our tune.
The believers and the apostates wage a holy war.
In the demilitarized zone, a meaningless voice is sobbing.
“um so that person LITERALLY committed a crime”
“im just spreading facts here, don't @ me"
Even that awkward poetic justice is upstaged
By this human drama whose script will leave you recoiling!
Aah, I wanna live a peaceful and uneventful life (lol)
On the other side of the screen is something that has nothing to do with me, some safe and secure co☆nt☆ent
H-U-M-A-N BEINGS THEMSELVES!!!!
People call that kinda thing “gossip,”
But it’ll drug your brain to soup more than any music.
When you curse someone, just dig a whole f-cking graveyard!!
Take a hint, this world’s in the mood for merrymaking.
You can really get a kick outta taking some idiot for a ride,
But when you’re sick of that, climb up on your high horse with a thump.
Famished for fun as we are, we demand some vulgar laughter.
We’re grinning too much, but look, it’s OK, OK!!
We’re fanning the flames too much, but look, it’s OK, OK!!
We’re grinning too much, but look, it’s OK, OK!!
We’re fanning the flames too much, but look, it’s OK, OK!!
OKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOK
OKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOK
R.I.P. in the gossip sea.
All of the salty losers are sinking.
Even the partners-in-crime I’d once fought with
Have sunken, every last one of them, into this sea.
(Isn’t it tragic......)
(Isn’t it traaaagic......!)
(Isn’t it traaaagic!!!!!)
\ Yep!! / Just☆kid☆ding~

I wanna watch them forever and ever and ever,
Human beings themselves, forever and ever and ever.
I wanna watch them forever and ever and ever,
Human beings themselves, forever and ever and ever.
I wanna watch them through these two clouded lenses.
