lyrics

その刃を握った
流れる血は
誰かに届く

I hold the blade
Flowing blood will reach someone

同じことを言っている
同じことを言っている　
黙っていれば、「話せ」と言い
話せばその言葉の隅をつく
二重の意味は袂を別ち　
洗練された響きを無くして

I have been saying the same
I have been saying the same
If I stay silent, he says “talk”
If I speak, he point out a small mistake in my words
Words have double meanings and the refined sound disappears

列に並ぶ机に座り　
教養と優劣を学んだ私が
何処へも行き着くことのない、門を叩く
狂信されるお前ですら食わずには生きられぬ
非文化の文明を呪い
己を殺して

Sitting at the desk lined up,
I learned about education and superiority
But I decided to knock the door of life without an answer
Fanatic artists cannot live without working in this country
He curses a civilization without culture and deletes his individuality

柄を喉に突き刺し神に慰めを乞う
もう一方の先端を他人向けて

柄を握る痛みに慣れた私は　
今日も門の前で
「不幸不幸」と誰かに気づくように繰り返す
I stick the haft into my throat and ask God to comfort me,
pointing the other end to someone else

I get used to the pain of gripping the haft tightly
Wishing someone would notice,
I repeat “misery” over and over again in front of the door today
