English Translation
INSOMNIA
Stuck like I was a nail,
trapped by an obscure book.
Both pain and sweetness are
a taste of the dreams of my sleep.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
The only reliable thing is this nothingness.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
I die and I laugh;
I’m such an egoist.
A white sweetness dances on my tongue;
the sound of the trauma is stuck in my mind.
Both pain and sweetness are
a taste of the dreams of my sleep.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
The only reliable thing is this nothingness.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
In this white darkness,
I’m such an egoist.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
I’m reminded of that stormy gray.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
This tightrope walk
is a rondo I can’t escape.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
The only reliable thing is this nothingness.
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows.
I die and I laugh;
I’m such an egoist.
Romaji
INSOMNIA
Kugi no you ni uchitsuke teru
torawareta yami no tobari de
Itami sae kanbi ni saa
ajiwatta nemuri no yume
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Tashikana mono wa kono kyomukan
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Shishite warae araru egoisto
Shiro no ame odore shita de
Haritsui ta torauma no oto
Itami sae kanbi ni saa
ajiwatta nemuri no yume
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Tashikana mono wa kono kyomukan
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Shiroi yami to aruru egoisuto
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Yobisamasu no wa hare nu haiiro
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Nawa no saki wa kaere nu rondo
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Tashikana mono wa kono kyomukan
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
Shishite warae araru egoisto

INSOMNIA
釘のように 打ち付けてる
囚われた 闇の帳で
痛みさえ 甘美にさあ
味わった 眠りの夢
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
確かなものは この虚無感
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
死して嗤え
或るエゴイスト
白の飴 踊れ舌で
張り付いた トラウマの音
痛みさえ 甘美にさあ
味わった 眠りの夢
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
確かなものは この虚無感
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
白い闇と
或るエゴイスト
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
呼び覚ますのは 晴れぬ灰色
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
縄の先は
帰れぬ輪舞曲
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
確かなものは この虚無感
Awoken by my screams
Chasing my shadows
死して嗤え
或るエゴイスト
