Okay, as we all know I like to improv. A lot. And it's often songs that incur my warth and get their own little parodies. Well a while ago I was playing Fatal Frame when my sister was mad for that Fireflies song by Owl City, and at the time I was all like "Psh, Fireflies, moar like Crimson Butterflies...waaait a secooonnd...!" So yeah, before I knew it I had the entire song in my head. The main difference between this song and and the other parodies I make is that I made sure to write this one down (the second verse was giving me pains and I didn't want to forget the rest of it). And here it is, the aptly named Reference Obscura, meaning that the song makes more sense the more you know about Fatal Frame lore, I am sorry 
.
I'm not going to bother showing how exactly to sing it for the most part, just rearrange the lyrics until the syllables fit, okie dokie? To be sung to the tune of Fireflies by Owl City. B|
-verse 1-
You would not need your eyes.
To know crimson butterflies,
Closed up hell a la Persona 3,
'Coz they'd choke the hellish square,
And keep Cthulhu down there,
For a decade all's well and our lives are fair.
-chorus 1-
I'd like to make myself believe,
That my sibling wants to kill me,
It's hard to be the shrine maiden when he future is so bleak,
At least it's not some painful endless dream.
-verse 2-
'Coz I'd get a thousand hugs,
And ogle ethereal jugs,
As she screams about her lost romance,
A noose hung obove my head,
A phone book beneath my legs,
Waiting for these blind thralls to cut my thread.
-chorus 2-
I'd like to make myself believe,
That my sibling wants to kill me,
It's hard to think I'm still sane when some voice from the past,
Tells me to smash out random panes of glass.
-bridge-
The secret tunnel in the back,
We'll use it when Ryozo gets back,
My fatal tatoos leave me weak,
And they're hell when I fall asleep.
-verse 3-
Outsiders galore in sight,
Kusabi'd overnight,
The ink hit my eyes so welcome to hell,
We just played some Demon Tag,
When some long armed ageing hag,
Tried to Chris Hansen us all into a bag.
-chorus 3-
I'd like to make myself believe,
That Miku changes dolls periodically,
It's hard to be the shrine maiden when the future is so bleak,
But at least it's not some painful endless dream.
I'd like to look around and see,
I'm wanted dead by my famiry,
It's unfair that I get blinded 'coz I'm crap at hide 'n' seek,
So keep that mask away from me you fre-OW FUCK, MY EYES.
(Scary Whisper)
I'd like to make myself believe,
That these recordings are scary,
(Rap)
But if Moogle was in them he'd add more base,
And rap his sweet geek all over your face,
'Coz his rhymes are so elegant and twice as resplendent,
He'd make all of the Fatal Frame girls pregnant.
And there you have it. I'm not Martial, but not bad for an improv, if I do say so myself. I could post an explanation of the song meaning, line by line. It is literally packed with references to the different games, some of which are very obscura.
