What would be a good anime to go with this song I wrote way back when. I'm currently making it into a prog-rock song with electronic elements.I hope to make it into an amv as soon as I have time, experience, and the right equipment. but I don't know what anime I can use.

The song is called "Twilight" and it was inspired by Satoshi Kon's anime thriller "Perfect Blue", The thing is I want to know what other psychological mind-bending suspense-thriller animes could fit with the lyrics. Can someone please help me out here?!

Here are the lyrics;

Twilight

Come dance with me there is nothing to fear
As I watch you twirl around in circles
Just as I do
Stop
We look at each other
Place our hand on one another
Is there a tear in your eye
Because there is one in mine
Oh somehow I wish
we could break this
Ice cold barrier between us
Moonlight engulfs the sky
Given us a spot light
So we may dance in this twilight
Dance for an eternity
'Til twelve at midnight
Amongst shinning stars that glow
In a vast radiance upon our ceiling
It'll be all right
Why do you look so sad
Shouldn't I be happy,
What in my life is missing
That makes you feel so bad
Please stop thinking those thoughts
The tapestry of the doorway
Where we once danced
Has molded and deteriorated
The Room
Once our beautiful dance floor
Somehow is smothered in dust
I'm gone but you are still there
How can this be
If I have passed on
Why are you still alive
I guess some spirits never die
I wonder
Will you forever dance in the twilight
Amongst those shinning stars of the ceiling
The ones we named ourselves after
Dance in the moons gracious spotlight
'Til twelve at midnight
Will you forever be a glimpse
An imprint of my former life
People will see as they enter our room
Hearing our laughter
As we played
Or troubled them
With our mischievous ways
Whatever this curse may be
I will not hate you for it
No I can never hate myself
Oh how I miss you
You were always
My favorite reflection

sounds good for Lunar Legend Tsukihime

or for something more thriller-ish, Kara no Kyoukai/Garden of Sinners

It MIGHT work with Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (definitely a psychological mind-bending supsense-thriller anime). I'm already getting a vague idea of how it might be doable from the lyrics alone.

Cool thanks for your input guys, I guess I'll be watching some new shows this weekend. from what I've seen "Serial Experimental Lain" might work.

"Lunar Legend Tsukihime" and "Kara no Kyoukai/Garden of Sinners" I've never even heard of these animes before, I'll have to check them out ASAP.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, is that the show were everyone looks all cute and adorable and then they start to rip each other apart and kill each other, cause if it is then I might use it, MIGHT USE IT!!!.

Naruto. I insist. It will be original and potentially groundbreaking.

You might want a more mature looking series, I don't know but the lyrics make me think of Princess Tutu. A dancing based dark fairy tale. Though it's probanly not the "psychological mind-bending suspense-thriller" type show you're looking for.

Ghost Hound might work, it's very psychological and it's got a kind of creepy factor.
