========================================
koko wa shizuka de nanimo nai
jibun no ashiota ga kodama shiteru dake
keshiki mo nai

kurayami ni nareteru kedo
itsuka wa nukedashite mitai nda yo
waraeba ii sa OKASHII daro
mienai hikari wo kanjiteru

mebaeru you ni koko ni ita
saita kokoro wa ame wo shiranai
isseiki no SUTOORII

dareka ga matteru you na

owari wa kitto mou sugu darou

shiryoku ga nakutemo mitsukeru darou

zenshin zenrei de

========================================
translation:

It's quiet and there's nothing here.
Only the sound of my own footsteps echo.
There's not even any landscape.

I'm used to this darkness, but
someday I want to try to find a way out.
It'd be nice if I could smile; it seems strange.
I can feel this light I can't see
with all my self and soul.

It seemed to bud here,
a spirit that blossomed without knowing rain.
The story of a century.

Feeling like somebody is waiting for me,
I'm continuing my search.
The end is surely just a little farther,
but it's not now. Though my breathing is disturbed,
I have a reason to keep going.

I'm hiding in the darkness, but
someday I want to meet you.
Though I have no eyesight, I'll find it.
I'll sniff out this similar sort of pain
with all my self and spirit.

==============================

I'm off on that next-to-last line. It's frustratingly hard to figure it out. THIS SONG IS SO GOOD. Seriously, it's like a darker sort of Hybrid Rainbow.

Wow! I like the song much more now! Giving me ghoose bumps thanks to lyrics now. THX!

< [ Claps ] Bravo Mare!


Seriously, what would this board do without your help.

This song alone is pretty much worth the price of the album.

Thanks for translating the lyrics, I like CC even more now that I know what it's about.

As per usual, whenever I turn a corner in my life, there's a new pillows song that is right there with me.

I swear, Sawao watches my every move and writes shit about it. Those sunglasses...

Yeah, like I said, this song immediately stuck out to me of all the songs on the album. The emotions in it were amazing, and as I listened to it and figured out the lyrics, especially the choruses, I was struck at how awesome it was. It resembles Hybrid Rainbow with a message of holding on, or in this case fighting through tough times. The way he sings makes it a little easier to feel than Hybrid Rainbow, even before you understand the lyrics. I don't care what people are saying about the chord progressions, this song is really something I haven't seen from them. They've once again managed to look at a theme they've covered before and put an entirely new spin on it, and it turned out great.

wow.

Made a few corrections; my friend gave me the wrong kanji on a few parts.
