Mirror of Paranoia

Yes, I’m alive.

University drains me most of the time, and also my will of translating. This means, expect a very few posts for the next months.

I totally haven’t checked the pronunciation, so romaji might be wrong. Sorry for this but I’m not a fan of vocaloids overall and I had, and have, hard time trying to figure out the words, so I simply gave up because time is something lately I don’t have.

Notes

“記憶は傷を | Will be”; it took me some time to decide what to do with this phrase. The meaning basically is “Memories are ready to wound you again”, or “Memories will come back and open again your past wounds”. I’m sorry that the translation loses everything, I hope at least this note clarifies better its meaning.

THE THIRD HOPE

哀しを歌う鳥の声
啄ばまれて帰れない過去へと
瞳ごと風を纏えば
記憶は傷を疵にする鎌首へ

kanashi wo utau tori no koe
tsuibamarete kaerenai kako e to
hitomi goto kaze wo matoeba
kioku wa kizu wo kizu ni suru kamakubi e

Sadness sung by a bird’s voice
Picking at a past that won’t come back
These eyes, when cladded by the wind,
Will be injured again by memories

偶然さえも惡意なら私は
それを受け入れて見せよう
忌まれるために三つ目の
私が殻を破るように

guuzen saemo warui nara watashi wa
sore wo ukeirete miseteyou
imareru tame ni mittsu mi no
watashi ga karu youni

If suddenly I’ll become evil
I wonder if you’ll accept it
So that I’ll be hated, this third eye
Of mine will tear apart your shell

罪を咎めることもなく
善を称え手を合わすことなく
ただ其処にある心ごと
覗いて絶望へ沈めて

tsumi wo togameru koto mo naku
zen wo tatae te wo awasu koto naku
tada soko ni aru kokoro goto
nozoite zetsubou e shizumete

Don’t blame your sins anymore
Don’t extol the good, don’t join your hands
Your hearts are all here
Peeking and drowning into despair

いきてく孤独を封じて形無く
私を私と呼ぶため手を離し
見つめる矛先　抉れば残酷に
壊されるために来なさい

ikiteku kodoku wo fuujite katachi naku
watashi wo watashi to yobu tame te wo hanashi
mitsumeru hokosaki egureba zankoku ni
kowasareru tame ni konasai

You can’t live preventing the isolation
So that I can call myself “I”, I leave this hand
The aims you stare at, if they’re hollowed into cruelty
Please don’t come, so that I’ll be destroyed

さながら　それは鬼の面
花に埋もれ　露に濡れるいのち
私に寄り添うものだけ
信じる運命に生まれた　幸いさ
深くに眠る絶望を
摑みだして　凛と突き付けては
私の中にはないものを
醜い泥の中　探してる

sanagara sore wa oni no omote
hana ni umore arawa ni nureru inochi
watashi ni yorisou mono dake
shinjiru unmei ni umareta saiwai sa
fukai ni nemuru zetsubou wo
tsukami da shite rin to tsukitsukete wa
watashi no naka ni hanai mono wo
minikui doro no naka sagashiteru

Just like if that’s the face of a demon
Buried by flowers, exposed to this life
You can get close to me, but
I was born believing in a destiny of happiness
Sleeping in the depths and seizing
Despair, thrusting coldness
What there’s not inside of me
I’m seeking it in this unsightly mud

誰もが哀しみ憂いて　足掻いてく
あなたも何かに　囚われ染まるのに
それでも迷わず進むと　言うのなら
絶望を抱き行きなさい

daremo ga kanashimi urei te agaiteku
anata mo nanika ni toraware somaru no ni
soredemo mayowazu susumu to iu no nara
zetsubou wo idaki ikinasai

Everyone keep struggling into sadness and sorrow
Even you are hunted by something
But still, since you say you’ll keep going on without losing your way
Please don’t keep embracing despair

生きてく孤独を封じて　形なく
私を私と呼ぶため　手を離し
それでも進むと進むと　言うのなら
傷だらけでも生きなさい

ikiteku kodoku wo fuujite katachi naku
watashi wo watashi to yobu tame te wo hanashi
soredemo susumu to susumu to iu no nara
kizu darake demo ikinasai

You can’t live preventing the isolation
So that I can call myself “I”, I leave this hand
But still, since you say you’ll go on, and go on
Please don’t live inside your wounds
