Yukue Shirezu Tsurezure Lyrics: Paradise Lost
English translation and romanization below the cut. Thank you to my dearest papermaiden for the coffee! :)
ENGLISH
I’m born, fall, tremble, then I start walking on a white night It’s too late. I hide with vicious fangs I’ve got regrets upon regrets The night will someday end, and yet I hang my head
I smash it all up, then for the first time ever too late I realize what’s important to me. “I don’t wanna lose this” The light vanished while I held your letter in my hand
I beg for forgiveness from my mirror, not the world The thing I’m crying and screaming like a fallen dream is my wish
Perpetually dizzy, on the verge of rotting I understand, I’ll never forget the profound encounter we had I was trapped in deep darkness, forgetting important things. But I will never forget it.
I’ve started to forget what it means to live, and I’ve been hiding the weak parts of myself I’m questioning myself for not being able to cry about it, and numb from the suffering.
It’s myself I can’t forgive, not the world Feelings I can’t distract myself from, a faint hope pulling me along I won’t forget what it means to live. I won’t make you sad ever again.
I beg for forgiveness from you, not the world The thing I’m crying and screaming is my wish, and I will until it someday reaches you I won’t forget what it means to live. I won’t forget to live I’ll scream it to you, until it reaches you again Do you mind if I do it silently?
Look at me and laugh as I lose sight of things, and suffer. If you smiled, I’d be able to stand up again. Forever.
