  1. さあ 向こうこう チンドン行列って

    Come on, let's go beyond the heart, tangled in the parade of the street performers.

  2. もう ありとあらゆる不幸 ようない

    Don't wear a face that looks like it has sucked in every kind of misfortune.

  3. ああ 恐ろしいことばっか 楽しむことさえそう

    Ah, it's all terrifying, even the act of enjoying things feels the same.

  4. もう 後にって思い出 ぶんられるなん

    I hate looking back and getting hit by memories later on.

  5. 絶望諦観どれほど痛み生む

    Just how much pain does despair and resignation bring?

  6. 他の誰かからない あなただけっている

    Nobody else understands, only you hold the truth.

  7. ちゃんと 大きな さあ わっはっ

    Speak clearly now, in a loud voice, open your eyes, wahahaha.

  8. 自分嫌いあなたこと 愛する嫌い

    Do I also dislike myself for loving you, who hates yourself?

  9. いつだってそうだ 心臓 誰彼

    It's always like this, looking down on everyone in the depths of my heart.

  10. れる まれ

    Tormented by the terror of being looked down upon, I can't move.

  11. もう 黙り 否定れるくらいなら

    It's better to stay silent, instead of facing denial.

  12. その気づく ない自分

    You'll eventually realize, the speechless you.

  13. 愛情友情あなたいくら

    Whether you doubt love or friendship, it doesn't change a thing.

  14. 一方 あなた決められるものじゃない

    It's given unilaterally, not something you can decide.

  15. ちゃんとって カウチにかけて お腹抱え わっはっ

    Come on, smile for real, let loose on the couch, holding your belly, ha ha ha.

  16. そんな寂しいことない

    Don't say such lonely things, looking down as if you know it all.

  17. 真っ赤かな 散らし 嘘つき塗り重ね

    Spreading bright red lies, layering lie upon lie.

  18. どうにもならまれ 傷つく逃げ出し

    Feeling cornered and helpless, escaping before you get hurt.

  19. あなた思うほどあなたない

    You're not as bad as you think you are.

  20. 誰かせいってこときっとある

    Surely, it could also be someone's fault.

  21. 痛み呪うやめない

    I won't tell you to stop cursing the pain,

  22. それもうあなた一部

    It's already a part of you, isn't it?

  23. でも したものしか向けないけど

    But hey, you're only looking at what you've lost,

  24. 誰かものことある

    Have you ever counted the gifts someone gave you?

  25. 忘れまっなら 無理でも思い出

    If you've forgotten them, try to remember, even if it's forced,

  26. じゃない悲しい

    Or else, I'm going to be sad.

  27. ちゃんと 大きな さあ わっはっ

    Talk to me properly, with a loud voice, come on, open your eyes, wahahahaha.

  28. 自分嫌いあなたこと 愛する嫌い

    Do I also hate myself for loving you, who hates yourself?

  29. いつだってそうだ 心臓 誰彼

    It's always like this, looking down at everyone deep in my heart,

  30. れるまれ

    Tormented by the terror of being looked down upon, unable to move.

  31. どこない泣く

    Before you cry that there's nothing anywhere,

  32. ちゃんとつめ

    Look right in front of you and see me clearly.
