プレゼント (Purezento) – Present

from SOS / Present single.

——

The meaning of the word “unknown”
Has been mistaken all this while
People who don’t know it have started to overlap it with “hate”

Those people who know nothing
And have no wish to try to know
Why do they talk about “hate”?
Circulating it all around

Because the “unknown” is frightening
We spit out ugly words, trying to deceive
So that we won’t be disliked

“I don’t want to be left alone
Stay here with me”
Please don’t close off your heart
Just because you’re unable to speak these words

“I won’t leave you alone
Everything’s alright”
I want to become strong
So that I can say those words back to you

“Life” is
Full of problems that arise
So I used to think that we’re just problem solving programmes, but

I’ve realized
Something like the “present”
Is a special present that allows us to live as we like for decades

So I’ll look forward to
Slowly opening it up
I’ll gift those words to myself
Because I always forget them

“I don’t want to be left alone
Stay here with me”
Please don’t close off your heart
Just because you’re unable to speak these words

“I won’t leave you alone
Everything’s alright”
I want to become strong
So that I can say those words back to you

Even if the world with you now
Is so painful it makes me want to cry
Even that is a “present”
And days of smiles will surely come

Having been left alone
I realized
That there are so many people
Whom I really treasure

“I won’t leave you alone
Everything’s alright”
I want to become strong
So that I can say those words back to you

We’ve created a home, a big big one
Hand-crafted for years and years
A warm Home lit by lots of light
Where everyone cuddled around a pot of stew when the snow fell
And chased the stars in our car when they emerged

No matter what journey you embark on
Always come back here
It may not be right to say this, but
This is your Home

If you somehow went too far away
Always come back here
It may not be right to say this, but
This is our Home

As we become adults, we gain some and lose some
I don’t care about that
Those wonderful memories are treasures
Which we can’t achieve unless we become adults
So I think that, yes, it’s not too bad to be an adult

No matter what journey you embark on
Always come back here
It may not be right to say this, but
This is your Home

If you somehow went too far away
Always come back here
It may not be right to say this, but
This is our Home

When I first saw you
I understood why I was born into this world

Every time I saw you, my heart raced
But you always looked back at me with frigid eyes

Before I met you, my world had no hope
I thought that there was no value in me

Even though I would do anything for you,
Why did you look like you’d rather live life alone?

I worked so hard to speak these words
Yet you brushed me aside as if they meant nothing
I know you, even your worst personality
I just adore the way you smiled so sadly sometimes

The seasons changed, the 4th winter came around
And I was still following you around
I finally said it at “cafe Michelangelo” beneath the huge tree
“Will you get together with me?”

“I feel like puking everytime I see someone like you, shining so bright like the sun”

The moment our lives melded together
You smiled, unable to speak a word
Were you happy, were you sad?
You must have been thinking
“We’ll lose everything eventually, so why do these treasures keep increasing?”

I worked so hard to speak these words
Yet you shut your eyes and became a star, as if they meant nothing
Just what was I feeling that night?
How painful was it to say “thank you” and “goodbye”?

I worked so hard to keep on living
But I’ve lost something truly precious
But I know that life is still wonderful
And I’m really glad to be alive

Tonight comes once in a million years, as the sun sets and night comes
Even the battle with seemingly no end rests tonight and raises a celebratory cup

Everyone has their own idea of “justice”, so maybe we can’t help but have strife
Yet I think that the “man” I hate has a reason to be who he is

Dragon night, let us sing like friends tonight
Moonlight, starry sky, firebird
Let us dance like friends tonight

Tonight comes once in a million years, when the sun comes to play at night
Even the battle with seemingly no end lights up a flame as proof of truce

Everyone has their own idea of “justice”, so maybe we can’t help but have strife
Yet my idea of “justice” surely brought hurt to him

Dragon night, let us sing like friends tonight
Congratulation-gratulation-gratulation
Let our battle “end” tonight

Dragon night, let us sing like friends tonight
Moonlight, starry sky, firebird
Let us dance like friends tonight

炎と森のカーニバル (Honou to mori no kaanibaru) – Fire and forest carnival

from Honou to mori no carnival single.

The emergency exit to the attraction “Cosmo Panic” at this amusement park in YOKOHAMA
Is the entrance to this party
When you open the door, you’ll see

An area ruled by huge trees, a place called “Treeland”
You are the big star there
Here, the bell is ringing, the party is beginning

Fire and forest carnival
Even the mummy man is dancing
At my carnival tonight

The wizard said this to me
“Keep this romance a secret, if not, her life will be in danger”.

“Bring me to the party”
Because of these words you said
Shall we go to see the devil DJ?
I’ll go buy you a moonlight cocktail

I was fascinated by the robot at the BAR
And because you got angry at me
I kissed you right in front of everyone
Here, it’s your turn, right?

Fire and forest carnival
Even Cinderella is singing
At my carnival tonight

So as not to lose you in the crowd
We held hands, and I was determined to never let go of you again.

Fire and forest carnival
Even the mummy man is dancing
At my carnival tonight

The wizard said this to me
“Keep this romance a secret, if not, her life will be in danger”.

The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
There’s nothing we’re afraid of, because we’re not alone anymore

That night when my precious something was destroyed
I walked on alone, searching for the stars
Are you watching this Perseus constellation too?
I’m doing well, “where” are you now?

Don’t be possessed by the devil named “method”
Remember that important thing named “goal”

The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
There’s nothing we’re afraid of, because we’re not alone anymore
The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
It’s ok even if we’re afraid, because we’re not alone anymore

That night when my precious something was destroyed
I walked on alone, searching for you
Since that day, we’ve set out to sea alone, because
“We’ll definitely meet again at that promised place.”

Don’t be fooled by the devil named “society”
Remember the “answer” which you’ve decided upon yourself

The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
There’s nothing we’re afraid of, because we’re not alone anymore
The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
It’s ok even if we’re afraid, because we’re not alone anymore

In this “dazzling” life
I’m really glad that I’ve met you

Escaping from the city out to sea, where shall we go next?
Let’s set out again through this beloved Earth

The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
There’s nothing we’re afraid of, because we’re not alone anymore
The sky is blue and clear, as we walk out towards the sea
It’s ok even if we’re afraid, because we’re not alone anymore
