ハート、叫ぶ。 (Haato, sakebu.) – Heart, screaming.

from Don’t look back! single.

——

I used to think I was calm
(Is that really true?)
Hey, I’m awake, right?
(Maybe it depends)
It doesn’t feel like I’m dreaming
(That’s right)
This realistic me

These days, just a little
I feel weird
Just (walking) down the long (corridor)
Makes my hearts feel hot

Heart (heart) screaming
In a loud voice (I love you) I love you
As I (think) about you
I open the window, moved to tears
Heart (heart) screaming
There’s (nobody) on the ground
Like I’m the only one in this
Sorrowful romance

People have always said I’m conservative
(Because I hate being noticed)
With such low self-confidence
(Do you like being alone?)
I had no interest in boys
(Like I’m escaping)
I put up barriers

Somewhere, just a little
Maybe I’ve changed
Just (watching) the sinking (sun)
Why does it feel painful?

Heart (heart) swaying
Unable to say (I love you) I love you
Just (speaking) your name
And I freeze in the wind
Heart (heart) swaying
I (can’t) discuss it with anyone
It makes me want to run away, this
Tough romance

Heart (heart) screaming
In a loud voice (I love you) I love you
As I (think) about you
I open the window, moved to tears
Heart (heart) screaming
There’s (nobody) on the ground
Like I’m the only one in this
Sorrowful romance

My first experience
Tough romance

恋愛ペテン師 (Renai petenshi) – Love swindler

from Don’t look back! single.

——

Why do women dream?
When they know they will soon wake…
Words like “I love you”
Are just tools for men to tide over situations

Every time I’m held
In your arms
My body melts, melts
With your warmth

“It’s not a lie, I just forgot”
You say in evasion
So smooth…
More effective than excuses
You kiss me
Such unfair techniques to keep me silent
Are your old tricks
“It’s not a lie, I just forgot”
You smile
And I’m dizzy…
Nodding before I knew it
Faltering
Unable to stay angry
I know
That I look like a fool
But just one more time
I’ll forgive you
Love swindler

Why don’t women learn their lesson?
Just repeating the same mistakes
Promises that they “won’t do it again”
That’s what men are like, right?

Even the root of my tongue
Feels dried out
My heart has gone, gone
Look, out of my body

“I’m often misunderstood”
You say in sorrow…
Muttering…
Complaining of your youthful
Awkwardness
Tickling my motherly instinct
That’s your trump card
“I’m often misunderstood”
You say with teary eyes…
Tearing up…
I’m comforting you before I knew it
Your sob story
I can see through it all
But I’m still deceived
By your trap
But just one more time
I’ll give you a chance
Romance swindler

Even though
I know your type
Why am I always, always
Obsessed with you?

“It’s not a lie, I just forgot”
You say in evasion
So smooth…
More effective than excuses
You kiss me
Such unfair techniques to keep me silent
Are your old tricks
“It’s not a lie, I just forgot”
You just smile
And I’m dizzy…
Nodding before I knew it
Faltering
Unable to stay angry
I know
That I look like a fool
But just one more time
I’ll forgive you

卒業旅行 (Sotsugyou ryokou) – Graduation Trip

from Don’t look back! single.

——

We’ve promised each other long ago
That we’ll go on a graduation trip when spring comes

The scenery passes outside the train window
Like the accumulation of days past

What will we be doing 10 years later?
Will we already be married?
Imagining
Yes, each other’s futures…
Everyone

Watching
The same sky
Wonderful memories
To be thought of later
Someday, surely
This sky we are looking at now
No matter where we are, what we are doing
It’ll be floating behind our eyelids

The small stopover station
What is it waiting for?

Anxious about the upcoming future, but
Everyone will get off the train
The time until then
Yes, we’ve been travelling together
Everyone

Continuing to run
On the same track
As we get closer
To our respective destinations
We will
Look back on all that we’ve seen
As a long dream that taught us
The meaning of life

Watching
The same sky
Wonderful memories
To be thought of later
Someday, surely
This sky we are looking at now
Will continue forever

Continuing to run
On the same track
As we get closer

Look back on all that we’ve seen

ニーチェ先輩 (Niiche senpai) – Senior Nietzsche

from Don’t look back! single.

——

I like him
I feel so sad
What should I do?
Hey, please tell me
Senior Nietzsche

From the library window after school
I secretly watched him the entire time
His back as he trained for goalkeeper
Makes me want to lean my forehead against it

Yes, romance (always)
Comes without warning
I was normal up till yesterday
But today, it’s just so painful
My racing heart

Philosophical train of thought
Just why was I born?
Just a little bit
I understand (understand) it now (now)
Such a
Philosophical train of thought
Just why am I alive?
Life is just a transcient passage, but (surely)
Yes, maybe it’s to meet with someone?

In the classroom, as I was preparing to head home
He suddenly returned
“I’ll send you back on my bike”
My heart feels like exploding

Why do people (sometimes)
Wish to believe in destiny?
An invisible magical power
Maybe there really is a God?
Somewhere…

When I peeked into that abyss
The abyss is peeking back at me
Just like how
I watched (watched) him (him)
That’s right
When I peeked into that abyss
The abyss is in love with me too
Such a convenient explanation
Am I right?

I like him
I feel so sad
What should I do?
I know
I want (want) a mirror (mirror)
I mean
I like him
I feel so sad
What should I do?
Please tell me (everything)
About human nature, just a little
(About human nature)
Senior Nietzsche

パンキッシュ (Pankisshu) – Punkish

from Green Flash single.

——

Just by studying (won’t change won’t change)
Or by taking a job seriously (won’t change won’t change)
Won’t make Japan change (won’t change won’t change)
So let the eminent people work hard

Oh Yeah!
Even when they tell me to search for my dreams
Rules, rules bind me down
There’s no space for me to dream
Oh Yeah!
Complaining just makes me hungry
So I’ll shake my head and scream!
Yeah!

Life is punkish
Don’t think!
Just do whatever
You want to do
Here we go! (Go ahead!)
Here we go! (Go ahead!)
Within us
There is something burning
This flame will not go out
So go!
Yeah!

I must be kind to others (What’s with that! What’s with that!)
Behave like a good citizen (What’s with that! What’s with that!)
But that won’t change me (What’s with that! What’s with that!)
It doesn’t matter if others don’t like me

Oh Yeah!
Every single person says that
Love is the most precious thing
But I want to love myself
Oh Yeah!
There’s no use in whining
So I’ll raise my fist and sing!
Ah!

Life is punkish
That’s of course?
There’s no need to care
About what’s happening around
Don’t stop it! (Keep it going!)
Don’t stop it! (Keep it going!)
Within us
There is something burning
Wake the sleeping children!
So go!

The cat in the sunn spot
Is yawning
Such a lazy day
I just need to mess it up!
Come, let’s rage!
Ah!

Life is punkish
Don’t think!
Just do whatever
You want to do
Here we go! (Go ahead!)
Here we go! (Go ahead!)
Within us
There is something burning

Life is punkish
That’s of course?
There’s no need to care
About what’s happening around

スターになんてなりたくない (Sutaa ni nante naritakunai) – Don’t want to become a star

from Rashikunai single.

——

CHA CHA CHA CHA CHA…

The real me is surely
In the crowd in this city
She is there somewhere

Lost amidst normal people
With noone around her noticing
She is there somewhere

Why
Why
Why
Is she always hiding?
This me…

I don’t want
To become a star
Shaking free and escaping
From the chasing cameras
Such a way of life
I can’t stand it anymore
This beautiful dream
Has many thorns
An unknown world

Yesterday, in that convenience store
Buying ice-cream and magazines
She was there

Please
Please
Please
Hey, someone, take
My place…

I’ve always wanted
To become a star, but…
It was taken away
Everything I treasured and freedom
From the car window
All that I’d lost
This beautiful dream
Let it disappear now
A transcient world

Why
Why
Why
Is the city blurring?
This me…

I don’t want
To become a star
Shaking free and escaping
From the chasing cameras
Such a way of life
I can’t stand it anymore
This beautiful dream
Has many thorns
An unknown world
