Sora no ki – Amano Tsuki

天の樹 (Sora no ki) – Skytree

Sora no Ki / Tsuki Amano

from Sora no ki album.

—–

In the abandoned garden
The plant you planted
Starts to bud

Soaking up the silent relentless rain
It grows
An aftertaste of happiness

Why
Does it grow so beautifully
As if criticizing
As if admonishing
This hollowed out body of mine?

I wanted to live
Together with you
Playing and leaping
With a tiny bit of vertigo
I’ll stretch up to a place
Where you cannot see
And smile
As I embrace the sky

On this ground dyed red with sunset
I see the road we used to walk on

How far apart must we be
To be able to forgive it all?

I progress without looking back
If calling out to for you
Or thinking of you
Won’t reach
Then I don’t want to soil “beauty”

The warm words
You gave to me
Glittered brightly
In the dark future
I will grow tall
Taller than anyone else
And smile
As I embrace the sky

I wanted to live
Together with you
Playing and leaping
With a tiny bit of vertigo
I’ll stretch up to the place
Where you wish to be
And smile
As I embrace the sky

Tokyo Tower – Amano Tsuki

東京タワー (Toukyou tawaa) – Tokyo Tower

Sora no Ki / Tsuki Amano

from Sora no ki album.

—–

You said that I was Number 1
But as spring rushes by us
Your gaze shifted elsewhere
To that stimulating one

I should have made you ashamed
Maybe I should have designed a trap for you
From the watchtower, I witnessed
The moment love shifted

I understand
That expression on your face
You’re waiting for the opportunity
For a sign of temptation

Why
Did you choose someone whom I can see?
Is it ok to pretend to not know anything and wait for you?
Tell me
Was the forever you wished for a lie?
My plans remain blank pieces of paper
Tokyo melancholy

Exposing old wounds
As if exchanging in brand new furniture
You’re swapping me out
Even the place where I belong

I’ve always known
Even as you said “thank you” with a smile
That you were beginning to tire
Of the plan I had chosen

That’s right
I’m imperfect, I’ll never reach his standard
I cannot even speak one piece of good news
Even now
I continue counting the swelling buds
Of your laughter alone
Tokyo melancholy

Stretching out my hand and there you are
Smiling right beside him
This reality that I cannot accept
Keeps me
Rooted to the spot

Why
Why
Did you choose someone whom I can see?
Is it ok to pretend to not know anything and wait for you?
Tell me
Was the forever you wished for a lie?
My plans remain blank pieces of paper
Tokyo melancholy
That’s right
I’m imperfect, I’ll never reach his standard
I cannot even let you dream of tomorrow
Even now
I continue counting the swelling buds
Of your laughter alone
Tokyo melancholy

EUPHORIA – Amano Tsuki

Sora no Ki / Tsuki Amano

from Sora no ki album.

—–

I’m floating
Forgetting even the nightmare
I’d had through the night

Shall we occasionally
Exchange cheap lines
Like in a movie?

Adjusting the tilt
I looked up at the blue sky
The world spins, carrying the lies with it

Throw the dice, run on clumsily
To you, to your base
Embrace the flowers, let the spray fly
Expose all the shame and run

I was stingy
And thirsty
Encased in armour

Gazing at the sun pouring into the storm
As I sucked on my thumb

Comparing myself to something
Hating that something
The world plucks hope away

Throw the dice, run on clumsily
Admire the poison, spread the poison
To the clear morning, to the muddy cloud rift
Expose all the shame and run

Someone is crying
A dog is howling
To the area outside my domain
I jeer and yell
Without listening
Spreading out the rag sail
Steering the helm to head straight to my hopes

Throw the dice, run on clumsily
To you, to your base
Embrace the flowers, let the spray fly
Expose all the shame and run
Throw the dice, run on clumsily
Admire the poison, spread the poison
To the clear morning, to the muddy cloud rift
Expose all the shame and run

Kami-sama – Miliyah Kato

神様 (Kami-sama) – God

Love / Affection / Kamisama / Miliyah Kato Loveland / Miliyah Kato Loveland / Miliyah Kato

from Love/Affection/Kami-sama single + Loveland album.

—–

I always dream of being reborn as someone else
Closing my eyes and daydreaming
“Your world has ended”
With hair dyed pink
I walk in the city
Do I look like I’m having fun?

Bored of tedium
Tired of always getting angry at something
I’m so empty, ah, it’s oppressive
I want to fall deeply in love!

God, reflect my heart
Since the moment you found me
I was reborn in love
Always in my heart
So you are my God
You are my God

“I want things to be badly shaken up”
I’ve always dreamed of that
You suddenly appeared and changed my world
“We will definitely meet again”
“Leave it all to fate”
Even a moment at that place with you

An overwhelming presence
Since the day you existed in my world
I was given meaning
“Let the world end”
I used to think that
But now I wait for tomorrow’s coming

God, grant my wish
I’ll take all of you
Into my body and become one
I can feel you
Just like I feel the pain in my heart

Calling this modest feeling “happiness”
Who was the one who said that?
You destroyed me
And made me anew
So you are my

God, reflect my heart
Since the moment you found me
I was saved by love
Always in my heart
God, grant my wish
I’ll take all of you
Into my body, like how love has protected me
Always in my heart
So you are my God
You are my God

The shining sun pierces through my skin
I can’t wait anymore, let’s go
To that beach
The gulls are calling from the white horizon
The sea breeze on my cheeks, why are you calling to me?
Let’s sing, let’s dance
Let’s grab happiness

The joy of running across shifting sand
With you, with you
I want to share it with you
Tossing our beach sandals into the sea
White boats, red flowers
Because summer is here

Let’s laugh, let’s shout
Let’s dream of tomorrow
Let’s sing, let’s dance
Let’s grab happiness

Lalalala~ Lalalala~
Lalalala lalala lalalala~

Children in the past were trees bearing dreams
Body full of cuts and scratches, always standing beside God
Children in the past were tiny fireworks
Where will they roll to, when will they explode? Nobody knew

Hang on, hang on, children now
Make tomorrow fair weather too

Children in the past had no roof in their hearts
Whenever they looked up, the blue sky stretched away
Children in the past were amazing inventors
Chopping wood to make pistols and scrap iron radios

Hang on, hang on, children now
Make tomorrow fair weather too

Children in the past were trees bearing dreams
Body full of cuts and scratches, always standing beside God

Hang on, hang on, children now
Make tomorrow fair weather too

chu…… chu…… chu……
la…… la…… la……

Hang on, hang on, children now
Make tomorrow fair weather too

Hang on, hang on, children now
Make tomorrow fair weather too

Children in the past……

It’s a festival today! Dodonga don!

Losing to the rain, getting totally drenched
Losin to the wind, sigh, getting a cold
Whistling a tune, going my way
Call me an idiot, oh, please go on

Lifting up the portable shrine of dreams with a soiya soiya (soiya!)
Ah, burning with blood, sweat and tears (go go)
Plunging forward Z!

Throbbing heartbeat dodonga don (dodonga don)
Drum a beat on the Momoiro taiko!
It’s a festival today dodonga don (dodonga don)
Thankful and grateful that we’re alive today
Dodonga don (dodonga don)

Exams, break ups, a series of misfortune, this world is just, sigh, difficult
But life only comes once with a don, oh, let’s burst open!

Rather than be an idiot watching idiots dance, let’s dancing (dancing!)
Ah, it won’t begin until you try (go go)
Life is a

Throbbing heartbeat dodonga don (dodonga don)
Drum a beat on the Momoiro taiko!
It’s a festival today dodonga don (dodonga don)
Thankful and grateful that we’re alive today
Dodonga don

Loneliness comes after the festival, but to fall into it now
It’s still too early wasshoi!
It’s still too early wasshoi!
It’s still too early wasshoi!
Wasshoi!

Heartbeat is dodonga don (dodonga don)
Drum a beat on the Momoiro taiko!
Beat goes my heart dodonga don (dodonga don)
Living with love, exploding with energy dodonga don (dodonga don)

Because we’re alive, we have tomorrow (We have tomorrow)
Because we have tomorrow, we can dream
Kick away the dark era (kick away)
Continue beating till the end of our lives
Dodonga don (dodonga don)
