Unhappy? 悩める人の子よ
Unhappy? Oh, troubled child of this world,
Unlucky? 人成らざる者も
Unlucky? Even those who seem less than human,
Be happy! 弛まず目指せよ
Be happy! Keep aiming without slackening,
アンデッド!生きているんだし
Undead! After all, we're still alive,
目を逸らした過去も
Even the past we've turned away from,
退屈な未来も
And the dull future ahead,
カウンセリング やれやれ
Counseling, oh dear me,
古今東西 ピースピース
Through ages and places, peace, peace,
Unhappy?
Unhappy?
Unlucky?
Unlucky?
Be happy!
Be happy!
アンデッド!アンデッド!
Undead! Undead!
アンデッドドド!
Undead-do-do!
ねえ ねえ ねえ ねえ何だかどうして
Hey hey hey hey, I don’t know why,
戦ってるようなそんな気がするの
It feels like I'm fighting, somehow.
触れられない 触れたくもない
I can't touch, I don't want to touch,
過去の自分自分自分自分と
It's the past me, me, me, me,
もうとっくに死んでる
Already long since dead,
透明な亡霊と対決
Facing off against a transparent ghost,
幼気で痛い記憶の奥
Deep within painful memories of childhood.
残念?もう居ないのに
Sad? Even though you're not here anymore
あれ?そっちが良い?アイロニーね
Oh? Is that what you prefer? Irony, huh?
透かされているのは現在の自分?
Am I just the shadow of who I am now?
ナンセンス 消えないレッテル
Nonsense, an everlasting label
Yes! 要はコンプレックス
Yes! The crux of it is my complex
取り憑かれているみたい
Feels like I'm possessed
巻き付いたまま
Still wrapped around
まだ離れない
Not letting go just yet
在りし日の自分
The self I used to be
アンデッド!
Undead!
死んじゃいない
I'm not dead
お前とお前の連鎖
You and your chain
生きていることとは変わり続けることだ
To live is to keep changing
不幸に甘んじて 満足するなよ
Don't settle for misfortune, find satisfaction
幸せになろうとしないなんて卑怯だ
It's cowardly not to strive for happiness
この世この世は 奇怪奇怪ファンタジー
This world, this world is a strange, strange fantasy
次は鬼が出るか蛇が出るか
Next, will it be a demon or a serpent?
出会って遭ってやっと始まる物語
A story finally begins when we meet and collide
さあ人か化物か
Now, is it human or monster?
閑話休題 ピースピース
Now, let's pause the chatter, peace, peace
Past & future can't change the Past
Past & future can't change the Past
Past & future, run for the Future
Past & future, run for the Future
カッ カッ カットイン
Ka-ka, cut in!
何だかどうして 未来になんぞ
Somehow, for some reason, I think about the future
何の希望もない期待出来ない ような気がして
Feels like there's no hope, nothing to expect
もう随分生きている
I've been living for quite a while now
既視感とテンプレで食傷
Feeling full of déjà vu and cliché
素敵な出来事の気配もない
No signs of wonderful events
残念
What a shame
積んだ経験の因果
The consequences of the experiences I've piled up
形骸化された神話と退屈な進化
Myth turned into mere form, and a dull evolution,
要は刺激が欲しいんだ
What I really want is a thrill,
飽きちゃった
I'm getting bored,
慣れちゃった
I've grown accustomed,
なんて
Just like that,
整っていくガイダンス
Guidance becomes refined,
増えるコンプライアンス
Compliance is on the rise,
蓋されていくみたい
It feels like I'm being sealed away,
吸い尽くして
Suck it all dry,
あれもこれもどれも
That, this, and everything.
同じ味がする
It tastes the same,
アンデッド!
Undead!
死んじゃいない
Not dead yet,
お前とお前の連鎖
You and your chain,
何時の世も 過去も未来も現在にあるんだ
In every age, the past, future, and present exist,
生きていることを 愚直に果たせよ
Live life earnestly and fulfill it,
目指せハッピーエンド
Aim for a happy ending,
アンデッド!
Undead!
死んじゃいない
Not dead yet,
お前に言っているんだ
I'm talking to you.
幸せを諦めてしまうな 人で在れ
Don't give up on happiness, be human.
ただ苦しみに慣れて 耐えているだけじゃ
You're just getting used to suffering, merely enduring.
死んでいるも同然 屍のアンデッド
It's as good as being dead, a corpse like the undead.
Unhappy? 悩める人の子よ
Unhappy? Oh child, troubled and lost.
Unlucky? 人成らざる者も
Unlucky? Even those who aren’t truly human.
Be happy! 弛まず目指せよ
Be happy! Aim high without wavering.
アンデッド!生きているんだろ
Undead! You’re still alive, right?
不幸に浸るも 幸せになるのも
Diving into unhappiness or finding joy,
そう全部全部お前だ
That's all, all of it, it's you.
古今東西 一切合切
Across ages and worlds, everything within.
森羅万象 ピースピース
All things in nature, peace, peace
Past & future can't change the Past
Past & future can't change the past
Past & future, run for the Future
Past & future, run for the future
人の在る所に何時も憂い事
Wherever people are, there’s always sorrow
生き抜けこの化物ばかりの物語
Survive this tale filled with monsters
