compare the lyrics to "Beltz"
"The little house is old
overgrown with moss.
the little house is old
no glass in the windows
the little house is old
the walls are bent
I would surely
not recognize it again."
and "Kojo No Tsuki"
"Now there is the moon over the desolate castle.
Whom is it shining for without change?
Only tendrils remain on the walls.
Only the storm sings between branches of the pines."
