V's Translations

––Background

I’ve been translating since I first started learning Japanese in 2012ish. Reading lyrics and painstakingly looking up every character (before learning what an online dictionary is) is how I taught myself basic kanji and grammar.

I studied Japanese formally in school for 6 years and I hold an N1 certificate. I work in the language services industry as a career.

This blog is a fun way to practice Japanese and make music more accessible for others to enjoy.

––Can I request songs?

Yes!

––Can I use your translations for things (lyric video, MV, etc)?

Yes, with credit! Appreciated but not necessary: ask beforehand, or link me to the finished product. I would love to see what you make!

—-How do you translate songs?

Like most other lyrics blogs, I care about conveying the meaning more than matching syllables. You can request a singable version of a song if you’d like, though. For EN>JP, note that I’m not a native Japanese speaker, so there’s probably more mistakes!

情けなくだらしなく哀れな男でした 五⽉⾬地を這えど欲なら⻘天井 いつからか分かんねぇが 道を踏み外してたんだ 茹だる街の酔いの中で

ドブネズミの美しさが 際⽴つほど俺はクソだった

あーあ また誰かを好きになる 悲しくなる 苦しくなる それでも何度も繰り返す 情けなくて死にたくなる 分かっちゃいるけどやめらんねぇ この恋を笑ってくれ

適度で順当な 愛情を望むくせに 適当なぬくもりも 欲しくてしゃあないんだ 「アナタ⼈じゃないんじゃない」 「いや、誰よりも⼈なんだぜ」 苦し紛れ やぶれかぶれ 笑えなくなったピエロさえも ⽴ち直るほど愚か者だった

あーあ また過失を故意にする 恥を晒す 涙枯らす ⽔掛け論辞め⽔割りで ⼼の傷消毒しても 痛いの痛いのどーせ俺 べらぼうに笑ってくれ

いっぱい罪を背負ったのに High また望んで さん、はい！歌え俺たちゃ失敗作 ご配慮なら⼤丈夫 脆く灰になり全部なあなあ はい、そこから覚えてません

あーあ また誰かを好きになる 悲しくなる 苦しくなる それでも何度も繰り返す 情けなくて飲みたくなる あーあ また平気で嘘をつく 紐を解く 肌に触れる 飲んだ恥忘れるために飲み お姫様に⾒捨てられても 分かっちゃいるけどやめらんねぇ この恋を笑ってくれ 痛いの痛いのどーせ俺 でも俺を分かってくれ

救ってくれ

I was once a sad, pathetic, slovenly man who crawled along in the May rain, but would’ve liked a blue sky I don’t know when it happened, but I stepped off the right path when I drunkenly wandered the hot city streets

I was so low that even the filthy rats looked noticeably beautiful to me

Aah, I’m gonna fall for someone else and get depressed and suffer for it all over again Yet I still keep repeating the cycle It’s so pathetic, it makes me want to die I know how pointless it is, but I can’t stop myself Please just accept my love

I just want to feel proper, normal love, but you can’t blame me for also needing adequate warmth too “You’re seriously not human,” she says, and I say “I’m way more human than anyone” So desperate with nowhere else to turn, my stupidity would’ve made even a depressed clown brighten back up again

Aah, I’m gonna go cause some problems I’ll show the world my shame, let my tears dry Even if I can heal the wound on my heart by quitting our bickering and going easier on the alcohol, it's going to hurt me no matter what, so just laugh at me as much as you want

I alone bear so many sins already, yet I crave another high, too On three we sing loud, knowing we’re failures We have no need for your sympathy Everything turns to a fine ash, yeah, and after that I don’t remember a thing…

Aah, I’m gonna fall for someone else and get depressed and suffer for it all over again Yet I still keep repeating the cycle It’s so pathetic, it makes me want to drink Aah, I keep telling lies without a thought; the ropes come undone, brushing against my skin Even if my princess will leave me for it, I drink to forget my shame I swallowed down I know what’ll happen, but I can’t stop myself Please just accept my love It's going to hurt me no matter what, but at least try to understand me

Title: One-eyed Tindalos*

逆巻く混乱(うず)　銀の空に轟く雷鳴 切り裂き　這い上がれ 漆黒(くろ)き孤高のオオカミよ

罅割れた大地から立ち昇る瘴気が 濁った瞳は閉じることで全てを失う 届かない　この手の先 握りしめて刺さる爪が ワタシを ボクを 覚醒へと導く

高鳴る鼓動　吠え叫ぶ　隻眼の剛狼 キミが望むのならば　世界の敵になろう 重ねる嘘　生み出した　奈落差す 光は 新しき時代拓く　不浄の月

歪んでいる砂煙　舞う町の片隅で 蹲る肢体(からだ)に目を留める者などいない

思い出すことも出来ず 在り処を消されてしまう 未来を 宿命を 覆す　この身を投じ

輝く牙　燃え上がる炎に包まれ キミが往くのならば　矢を断つ盾になろう 陽の当たらぬ　標すら無い　この荒野を駆ける 頼るもの無い　信じるは力だけ

逆巻く混乱(うず)　銀の空に轟く雷鳴 切り裂き　這い上がれ　滲む境界線 迷いの森　灰色の雪　照らす月の 光が 漆黒(くろ)き羽根を震わせた

高鳴る鼓動　吠え叫ぶ　隻眼の剛狼 キミが望むのならば　世界の敵になろう 陽の当たらぬ　標すら無い　この荒野を駆ける 僕ら新しき時代拓く力を

The crowd surges frantically as thunder roars from the clouded skies Break through the ground and arise, o great black wolf

A miasma rises out of the cracks in the earth My vision blurs, but closing my eyes cuts me off from the world I can’t reach what out’s there The claws taking hold and digging into my skin lead me lead me toward my next awakening

My heart races, and the one-eyed wolf’s howls echo loudly If you asked me to, I would take on the world for you Cast into hell for all of my lies, the vile moon’s light breaks through and shows me the way to a new era

In a corner of the town inside the pulsing dust storm, no one even casts a glance toward the person hunched on the ground

Unable to recall anything, my whereabouts become completely unknown My future and my destiny will be overturned by my own hand

Its fangs glisten as we’re enveloped by the swirling flames If you’re going, I will become your shield I run, directionless, across the wasteland where sunlight cannot reach All I can believe in now is my own belief

The crowd surges frantically as thunder roars from the clouded skies Break through the boundaries between our worlds and arise Moonlight shines on the gray snow covering the forest of confusion, and black wings flutter

My heart races, and the one-eyed wolf’s howls echo loudly If you asked me to, I would take on the world for you I run, directionless, across the wasteland where sunlight cannot reach Please grant us the power to lead the world into a new era

パンイチ小僧が走り回る地球は エイリアンによって侵略されました 助けを呼ぶJapanese people, Restaurant のシェフが作ってたナポリタンが踊り出す 奴らにゃ 感情ってもんが無くてさ 何故か“惑星”に忘れたみたいで 野暮用でスーパーにお使い頼まれたあの子は UFOに吸い込まれたのさ 一方 その頃planet treeで僕ら Rabbitが地球に落ちてくのを見てた CoreとかNovaとかよく分からんが アダムとイブも首を傾げてた 俺は知らんぷりして彼女の手を引いて 足音立てずに逃げようとしたら ギターを持つ少女が現れて 今目の前で歌い出したのさ

ただLoveが溢れるよ 今夜 てかLoveで満たそうよ 今夜 It's a dancing 見ててよAlien Musicは世界を変えるよ 心の傷に音の絆創膏 パンにMellowのJamを塗ろう ドレミの音符 Milkに溶かして お菓子の家でGood night baby

あの子が付けたKissmarkがドレスコード てんとう虫が寝癖の先っちょ 指に光をためて撃つ 心臓 意地張っても寒いだけさきっと

君を愛してるよエイリアン どこからともなく聞こえる音に揺れてる

深夜のバス停 時刻表には無い “それ”に乗ったら 直ちにFly 音楽に宇宙も関係はない たださ 愛の力で救いたいのさ 真面目に生きてきただけなのに あの子からすりゃ悪者扱い 不完全な音を組み立てていく エイリアンの脳にこれを搭載 てっきり 鉄筋コンクリートのようかと思っていたけれど 君たちもその気になれば 地球の事だって愛せるはずなの もう こっちの世界に住んでしまえばいいのに 本当 いっその事 そうか そうだよな 帰ってしまうよな その前にこの曲を お土産に

ただLoveが溢れるよ 今夜 てかLoveで満たそうよ 今夜 It's a dancing 見ててよAlien Musicは世界を変えるよ 心の傷に音の絆創膏 パンにMellowのJamを塗ろう ドレミの音符 Milkに溶かして お菓子の家でGood night baby (x1)

Our Earth, full of brats running around half-naked, was invaded by aliens The Japanese people cry for help, and the restaurant chef’s napolitan spaghetti starts to dance Those things seem to not have any emotions, having left them back on their “home planet”, and sucked up the kid sent on a quick grocery run into their UFO Meanwhile, we stood at the Planet Tree* and saw a rabbit fall from the sky I don’t know if it’s a core or a nova or whatever Even Adam and Eve tilted their heads at the sight I pretended to grab her hand by accident and tried to silently make our escape But then a girl holding a guitar appeared before us and started to sing a song

Love will overflow tonight Or rather, we’ll try to fill up on love tonight This is dancing; look, little alien Music has the power to change the world We’ll put a bandaid of sound over the wounds on your heart and spread a mellow jam onto some toast Mix notes of do-re-mi into some milk, and in our gingerbread house, I’ll tell you “Good night, baby”

The kissmark she left on me is part of the dress code A ladybug sits on the ends of my messy hair I create a beam of light from my finger and aim at your heart You try to be tough about it but I know you feel cold

I love you, little alien, swaying to the sounds playing from around us

This midnight bus has no schedule Once I get on, it readies to fly Nothing to do with music or outer space, I just wanna save you with the power of love All I’ve done is try to live an honest life, but she just treats me like a bad guy I’m gonna finish putting together my unfinished sounds ‘cause I wanna beam it into the aliens’ minds I thought you all were cold as reinforced concrete, but if you feel like staying, I’m sure you’ll come to love Earth I’d really love if you moved to our world as soon as possible Yeah, of course, you need to go home, don’t you? But before you go, take this song as a souvenir

Love will overflow tonight Or rather, we’ll try to fill up on love tonight This is dancing; look, little alien Music has the power to change the world We’ll put a bandaid of sound over the wounds on your heart and spread a mellow jam onto some toast Mix notes of do-re-mi into some milk, and in our gingerbread house, I’ll tell you “Good night, baby” (x1)

Aklo ft. Norikiyo, Zorn - Hyakusenman REMIX

My addiction to j-rap/r&b started because of sky-hi, but this was the song that solidified my love of the genres. I listened to this on repeat constantly for months on end. There's lots of interesting and clever rhymes and word plays in it, and I was glad I could make a good portion of the song rhyme in English too.

Kvi Baba ft. Aklo, KEIJU - Too Bad Day But… (Remix)

Another rap song from my Kvi Baba era. This one has good humor in it and the music is easy to bop to. I'm very happy with the rhyming for the verse in Aklo's part.

SPiCYSOL - Ano machi made

I've translated a number of SPiCYSOL songs, but this one stuck out as a favorite. It has a light boho vibe at certain parts that makes it addicting to listen to and brings in levity to contrast the bittersweet lyrics. Always fun to sing or hum along to.

haju:harmonics - Kamisama e

Their powerful vocals and interesting harmonization are what drew me in, but I also love a good edgy song now and then. It seems like they're originally an utaite/vtuber? who hasn't been active since dropping their first and only album. I hope they make more stuff!

I Don’t Like Mondays - Sora no aosa ni miserarete

IDLM has become one of my fav bands since I discovered them. This song was a particular favorite for me because the AMV in my head was really good. It's a fun, upbeat song filled with happiness and love.

Honorable mention:

Aklo ft. Zorn - Count on Me

他人の痛みには鈍感で 自分の痛みには敏感な僕ら 思春期に壊れちゃって 直せなくなった 止まない春の狂躁で 蓋してられない衝動がリークしていく 僕も壊したいなあ

君の心のやわいとこ 好き勝手噛みついてしまいたくなって 容易く折れそうな細い首 少しだけ苦しめたくなって

やっぱり欲しくなっちゃうな 君の全てを この街が眠る前に、連れ去りたいよ 36度あまりの 君の首筋に 少し跡が残ったって、構わないでしょう？ だから今は許して

こんな化け物にだって 親がいたりするんだ 無責任な人もいるね 可哀想って言葉に沿って 日々を装ってりゃ満足そうで カメリアコンプレックスをくすぐる為に 愛を浪費している

一見してみれば寛容で はみ出す僕らには狭量な世界は Hocus-pocusって言うんだ 大人はみんなペテン師さ！ 殖えたいという本能と 征服したいという劣情を隠している 僕にはできないなあ

忘れたいほどの過去など 忘れられるほどの痛みと呪いで 上書きしたいよ 同情の余地もないほど 気味の悪い 君の張り付けた泣き顔を 踏み躙ってみたいな

君の心のやわいとこ 好き勝手噛みついてしまいたくなって 容易く折れそうな細い首 少しだけ苦しめたくなって

かったりいアイミスユーとか いらない、僕たちは ルサンチマンが煮凝ったドス黒い愛を 八つ当たりみたいに ぶつけて、毟り合う くだらない泥試合に夢中になった

やっぱり欲しくなっちゃうな 君の全てを この街が眠る前に、連れ去りたいよ 36度あまりの 君の首筋に 少し跡が残ったって、構わないでしょう？ だから今は許して

We’re blind to others’ pain, but sensitive to our own We were broken in our teen years, and it’s too late to be fixed I can’t contain the excitement borne from adolescence so my urges are starting to show themselves I want to break someone, too

I can’t help but want to sink my teeth into the weak spots in your heart I can’t help but want to lightly strangle that delicate little neck of yours

I really, so badly crave every part of you Before this city goes to sleep, I want to take you away You wouldn’t mind if I left a little mark on that warm neck of yours, would you? * Let me do it just this once

Even monsters like me are still just average people There’s also those irresponsible ones Seeming satisfied spending every day pretending to be the dictionary definition of pitiful, squandering love with their actions that border on a camellia complex**

Society seems so tolerant on the surface, but it isn’t at all for people like us who stand out It’s all just hocus-pocus Adults are all huge liars! They hide their instinct to want to fuck and carnal desire to conquer others I don’t think I can do that

I wanna overwrite the parts of past I long to forget and any pain that I’m able to forget with a magic spell I’d love to crush that disgusting, crying face of yours underneath my heel with no remorse at all

I can’t help but want to sink my teeth into the weak spots in your heart I can’t help but want to lightly strangle that delicate little neck of yours

We don’t need to hear tired “I miss you”s from each other; our feelings of love, tainted by an obsession with resentment, indiscriminately clash and tear at each other, trapped in a pointless mud-slinging match

I really, so badly crave every part of you Before this city goes to sleep, I want to take you away You wouldn’t mind if I left a little mark on that warm neck of yours, would you? Let me do it just this once

--

*This phrase literally says “you wouldn’t mind if I left a mark on your [36 degrees and change] neck, would you?” I interpreted this to mean their body temperature, since in Celcius the average body temp is 36.78.

僕だけ言葉が通じないみたいだ 誰のせいかなんてわかっているけど なぜ僕はここまで続いてしまった？ 優しい友達がいたからかな

数えきれない痛みたちと 片手で足るよろこびの欠片 続けるか終わるかのどっちかひとつを 選び取る自由に疲れたよ

消えてしまえたら 消えてしまえたら 消えてしまえたら よかったのにな

僕らはみんな寂しくて 生きることがへたくそだった 涙がとうに涸れたから 終わる場所を探しているんだ

よろこびのうた 抱きしめるように 歌う

It seems like words don’t get through to me, though I know exactly who’s at fault there Why did I even bother coming this far? I guess it was because I had kind friends

I carry with me so much grief, along with a fragment of joy I can hold in one hand I’ve grown tired from having the freedom to choose whether to keep going or give up

If I could just disappear, If I could just disappear, If I could just disappear, I’d be better off

Every single one of us is lonely Being alive felt so worthless Long after my tears had dried, I went looking for my final resting place

悲しくもなくただ情けなくて俯いた 轍と足跡で泥まみれの一昨日の雪に苛ついた 手を繋ぎ歩くような綺麗なもんじゃないけれど 走馬灯のような思い出　少しだけ滲んだ

別に何も変わることはない 詮無い生活が続くだけだぜ なんて狐と葡萄みたいなこと 吐き捨てるほど　虚しくなるんだな

いつかの君がまとった白無垢の雪は 暖かで柔い真綿のようでした 今僕の上に降って脆く崩れてく それは重く冷たい　涙のようなみぞれでした

アスファルトの泥を跳ねて 忙しく駆けずる人の群れの中 失うはずのないものを失い その残滓に縋りついていた

君にそれを告げられた朝 僕の表情は間抜けでいただろう 想像しただけで笑えてくるのに 君は少しも笑わなかったな

優しい記憶だけ抱いて眠りたいのに アルコールじゃこの目は冴えてしまうのだ 街を這いずり回ってただ管巻いても　虚しい 君に触れたい

いつかの君がまとった白無垢の雪は 暖かで柔い真綿のようでした 今僕の上に降って痛みをぼかしてくれたのは 重く冷たい　涙のようなみぞれでした

忙しい街の只中なるしめやかさよ

I hung my head, not feeling sad, but feeling sorry for myself The sight of the 2-day old snow marred with tire tracks and footprints upset me It wasn’t the kind of pretty scene you’d walk around holding hands in, but it made the flashes of my memories become slightly blurred

I’ve become so empty that I try to disparage the past with meaningless words, like “This hasn’t really changed anything” and “Life will still go on”

I remember the snow draping over you like a white wedding dress, and how it looked like warm, soft silk floss But the sleet that’s now falling and breaking apart on me feels like cold, heavy tears

The mud on the asphalt gets kicked up; As I stood among the bustling throngs of people, I clung to the remains of what I lost that I had never expected to lose

The morning you told me that, I must’ve made a ridiculous face in response Just imagining it makes me want to laugh, but you didn’t laugh in the slightest

I want to fall asleep thinking only of sweet memories, but without alcohol in me, I can only see reality I stumble around town, just drunkenly mumbling to myself, still feeling empty I wish I could feel you

I remember the snow draping over you like a white wedding dress, and how it looked like warm, soft silk floss But the sleet that’s now falling on me and helping numb the pain feels like cold, heavy tears

焦がれるほど 求むのは何故だ 傷つくとしても 君を追うこの手は 記憶の中の姿をなぞる

失うよりも 重ねるよりも 一番怖いと思うのは 愛された日々ですら 全て忘れてしまうこと

君をただ追って 追って その目に映っていたくて 誰かじゃなくて 君へ Woah, 届くまで 咲いて散った 痛みを抱いて 今 誰かじゃなくて 僕が Woah, ここへ来たんだ

空回りすれ違う 答えの出し方もわからずに 目を背ければ癖になる 君への距離を手探り 近くで触れたくて その手で傷つけ合うFate 愛、夢、理想 綺麗な言葉 今の僕にはまだ眩し過ぎるものさ

もっと欲しくって ただ愛おしくて 過去を見つめ 途方に暮れ 影を追ってく 孤独を抱いて 空白を繋いでく 逃げはしない 挫けはしない 消えてはいない あの日見た未来

君をただ追って 追って その目に映っていたくて 誰かじゃなくて 君へ Woah, 届くまで 咲いて散った 痛みを抱いて 今 誰かじゃなくて 僕が Woah, ここへ来たんだ

甘い記憶や夢のひとひら あの日落とした言葉を今もまだ 凛としたサルビアのような 燃える想いがこの空に溶けた

(君をただ追って 追って) (その目に映っていたくて) 躊躇いも後悔も全て 掠れてしまうほど

君をただ追って 追って その目に映っていたくて 誰かじゃなくて 君へ (そう君へ) Woah, 届くまで 咲いて散った 痛みを抱いて 今 誰かじゃなくて 僕が Woah, ここへ来たんだ

甘い記憶や夢のひとひら あの日落とした言葉を今もまだ 凛としたサルビアのような 燃える想いがこの空に溶けた

Why do I feel desire so strongly that it makes me yearn? Even if it’s not good for me, I reach out after you and trace the figure of you in my memories

What I’m scared of more than losing you and more than repeating my mistakes is forgetting everything about the time when you loved me

I’m just running after you, running ‘Cause I want you to look only at me You’re the only one, woah, I’m trying to reach Love bloomed and died - now I’m dealing with the pain I’m the only one, woah, who made it here

I pass by you as we go around in circles, not sure how to give you an answer If you keep looking away, it’ll turn into a habit I try to gauge the distance between us, wishing that I could be with you and feel you But hurting each other is just our fate Love, dreams, ideals - all flights of fancy that are too far out of my reach right now

I want more ‘cause I just love you so much I long for the past, become lost, and start chasing shadows Trapped in my loneliness, the voids in my heart merge together I won’t run, I won’t give up; the future I imagined that day hasn’t gone anywhere

I’m just running after you, running ‘Cause I want you to look only at me You’re the only one, woah, I’m trying to reach Love bloomed and died - now I’m dealing with the pain I’m the only one, woah, who made it here

A lone dream and a naïve memory - I still remember what you said that day My burning passion, like an elegant salvia, disappeared into the air

(I’m just running after you, running) (‘Cause I want you to look only at me) Doubt and regret and all those things start to blur together, ‘cause…

I’m just running after you, running ‘Cause I want you to look only at me You’re the only one, (yes, you) woah, I’m trying to reach Love bloomed and died - now I’m dealing with the pain I’m the only one, woah, who made it here

夜を抱きしめ 瞼を閉じ込める あなたに会うために

冷えたからだを押し込むように 毛布のなか暖めた

時を止めるの夢の中 悲しそうな目をしていた

夜の底 溺れてた あなたを見つめてる

夜を超えたら あなたの好きな色を纏い 会いたくて

隠した涙 その理由を教えて いつでも想ってる

瘠せた背中を丸めてた 寂しそうな目をしていた

夜の底 溺れてた あなたを見つめてる

夜の底 震えてた あなたを抱きしめる

夜の影を 追いかけて ふたり眠ろう

I embrace the night and close my eyes so that I can see you again

I snuggled my cold body under the sheets and got warmed up

I dreamed of a moment frozen in time, where you looked so forlorn

I gazed at you as you had drowned in the depths of the night

When morning comes, I dress myself in your favorite color wishing to see you

I’m always thinking how I wish you told me why you hid your tears from me

You had curled your gaunt figure into a ball, and looked so lonely

I gazed at you as you had drowned in the depths of the night

I embraced you as you had shivered in the depths of the night

はじめから答えなんて　選ばないで取る両方 無茶な今日に　意味はないぜ 好きなだけ好きなことを

You never needed to make a choice; you can have it all There’s no meaning to our crazy way of life We’re just doing what we want, as much as we want

All we do is play It’s a one-time game, a race against yourself Don’t tell me you’re busy Until the very end, we’ll enjoy every day

Life is one time; there is no “later” All we have is now, so…

Move at your flow, take it slow; that’s how our life goes How’re you doing? Girls & Bros, let’s take things easy Nothing better than dresses soaked through and fruits dancing in the water; Let me go!! The night is still young

Wet hair is pretty damn sexy Keep your eyes on me, hold your breath and you’ll feel F-R-E-E, trust me Let’s leave a mark of our youth on this summer No point in worrying about the past now All I wanna know about is you Being all flirty, the way you say “Maybe” That look you’re giving could kill me, baby The sunset sinks into the blue deep My friends are behind me singing their hearts out I wish it could be like this forever-- What's up! Brother! How’s it going? One night of romance and dancing Cheers to my loneliness washing away I play a lullaby for you that gets us both excited Just let yourself go and dance with me, girl

All we do is play Get swept up in the booming music and go at your flow Don’t tell me you’re busy Don’t worry about time, just dance all you like

Life is one time; there is no “later” All we have is now, so…

Move at your flow, take it slow; that’s how our life goes How’re you doing? Girls & Bros, let’s take things easy Nothing better than dresses soaked through and fruits dancing in the water; Let me go!! The night is still young Move at your flow, take it slow; that’s how our life goes How’re you doing? Girls & Bros, let’s take things easy Nothing better than dresses soaked through and fruits dancing in the water; Let me go!! The night is still young

Title: Back to That Town

優しさのつもりで　言った言葉が 君にとっては　棘があったり “僕のために”としてくれてた事に イライラしてしまったり 気づかないフリした　君の気持ち 分からないまま別れた 恋だった

側にいたいと　言えなかった　2人 今頃どうしてるかな？ 連絡すら　意地張ってしない　2人 を包むメロディーを 遠く　遠く　想いをのせて 届けたい　あの街まで

久しぶりに降りた　海沿いの駅は あの頃のままで よく行ったカフェの通り ケンカもしたスーパーの帰り 思い出　滲ませる

別々の　道選んだ　お互いだけど 後悔する権利くらいは　あるのかな？

どんな言葉も　あの時じゃなきゃ　無意味 今更　どうかしてるかな？ 好きなのに泣いて　辛いのに笑って 溢れる　メモリーも ゆれる　波に　想いをはせた 戻れない　君の街まで

What I said to you was meant to be kind, but you took my words harshly But I’ve also gotten angry at you before for doing things meant to help me

I pretended to not notice your feelings and we broke up before I understood them But it was love

We both couldn’t say, “I want you to stay with me” I wonder how you’re doing these days? We're both too stubborn to try reaching out, but I hope our melody can go far, far away, carrying my feelings with it, all the way to that town

It’s been a while since I came to this beach-side station, but it’s the same as it ever was So is the street with our favorite café and the path home from the grocery store we argued at My memories blur with reality

We purposely went our separate ways, so do we still get the right to regret that choice?

Title: Truth's Out

君と大胆に夢を見よう 剥き出しを着飾って 君の最高に巡り合おう 触れるたび深く

まだ醒めない もっと揺れて (x1)

何に生きよう 重ねる目覚めの中思う 物語は簡単じゃない まだわからないことばかり 濡れた蕾も悩みの種も どうせ咲き誇るのだろう 最後の最後に笑うなら 君が選んだ今の君がいい そのまま想像の上 理想の方へ 本当の意味での将来像は 振り返るほど 見えてくるものじゃない？

君と大胆に夢を見よう 剥き出しを着飾って 君の最高に巡り合おう 触れるたび深く

グッドモーニングからスローペース むしろノープランでもOK あくせく周りと比べ無駄に凹むよりほら僕と遊ぼうぜ

Tシャツはノーブランド でも気分は超豪華 だって君より輝くブリンブリンなんて物はこの世に無い

悪魔みたく強か でもアンバランスに天使なんだな 小野小町、ジュリア、楊貴妃、クレオパトラ

ふざけすぎでもないよ 君は僕の月で太陽 見つからない様じゃれてたいよ I know じゃんけんぽんまたあいこ

生きる意味だとか 負けだ勝ちだとか 君の足跡が 僕に導いたのさ

なんだって買える様な Money 誰だって振り返るMy fame 結局裸のままで 愛に死ぬ事が大切

君と大胆に夢を見よう 剥き出しを着飾って 君の最高に巡り合おう 触れるたび深く

まだ醒めない もっと揺れて (x1)

最高で 最低で でも愛してやまないMy days 散々です 何回目？ どうにもしゃーないこのOne way 最高で 最低で でも愛してやまないMy days 君がいて 僕がいて OK, 今日も笑いたいね

Let’s dream boldly together Let’s be glamorous as our true selves so I can see you at your best Going deeper every time we touch

I won’t wake up yet Keep on swaying (x1)

Each passing day, I think about what I should live for Making a story isn’t easy; there’s still tons I haven’t figured out The seeds of doubt and watered buds will bloom all the same Whoever you choose to be now is right, as long as you can smile at the end of it all Go beyond your imagination, toward your ideal self In it’s true sense, isn’t a vision for the future something that becomes clearer the more you look back on the past?

Let’s dream boldly together Let’s be glamorous as our true selves so I can see you at your best Going deeper every time we touch

Since waking up I’m taking things at a slow pace Honestly, having no plan is OK Stop worrying so much about how you compare to others and let’s just hang out

My t-shirt isn’t any brand, but I’m feeling super fancy ‘cause there’s no bling-bling in the world that shines more than you

Stubbon as a devil but strangely also sweet like an angel Ono Komachi, Julia, Youki-hi, Cleopatra*

I don’t need to take things more seriously You’re my Moon and when the Sun is gone that’s when I wanna mess around I know, rock-paper-scissors and tied again

Your footsteps showed me the way to my meaning of life and what it means to win or lose

I wanna have enough money to buy anything and turn heads ‘cause of my fame But in the end all that matters is dying to love as my real self

Let’s dream boldly together Let’s be glamorous as our true selves so I can see you at your best Going deeper every time we touch

I won’t wake up yet Keep on swaying (x1)

Whether they’re good or bad, I’ll love every single one of my days I’m doing terrible – how many times has it been now? But time is just gonna keep moving in only one way Whether they’re good or bad, I’ll love every single one of my days You’re here and so am I OK, so I want us to keep being happy today
