アンダーグラウンド (Underground) – MY FIRST STORY

English Translation

Underground

The signal of a declaration of war,
the indispensable news,
the absolute social rules.
Ah no, it’s not it,
I don’t care about anyone.

“I just have to tell lies” or
“I’m not crazy”, either way,
they all listen with the same face,
but it’s not that, it’s not that.

What I want to say, all I have to say,
that’s just arrogance.
Such words can’t be conveyed, right?
It won’t control me.
“Life is not about winning or losing”,
I never once thought that.
Let’s stop with the gentle lies,
shall we?

I remembered that small dream,
“I’m sick of it…”
my only one wish.

“I want to be loved”
Not loved as I am, while killing my own heart,
what was I really looking for?
“I want to be loved”
Loved as you are, while stealing others’ hearts,
who were you really looking for?
“I don’t want to be in a world like this”
I went underground.

The worst infinite loop,
a completely absurd game.
Who the hell do you think you are? You’re cheeky.
Everyone just wants to survive, that’s why
I do fine on my own.
Let’s set the final gunshot by trading places,
shall we?

I gave up on putting my life on the line,
such happiness is muddy.

“I’m unsatisfied”
I want to be satisfied, but
after comparing myself to others’ misery
I ended up with more wishes.
“I’m unsatisfied”
Satisfied as you are,
you’re moving me at your own convenience,
and I got trapped by you, like many times before.
“Such world is the only one I know”,
I get lost in Wonderland.

“I want to be loved”
When I’m all alone at night and
my thoughts seem to overflow,
I dreamt of tomorrow many times.
Even if I keep reaching out to the edge of
the world that dropped me in sadness,
my memories won’t disappear.
