Title: Kokoro no Nai Machi (A City Without a Heart)
Words: Tatsurou
Music: Miya
waking up today, again it's the pits
cause I watched too much late night TV
I forget the song I'm in the midst of humming to myself
how did it go again?
if I come to a stop, I'll get left behind.
What did I lose in this city, what was taken?
the sunrise paints the city red
a sight that since long before has never changed.
the dog next door, is yapping like crazy again
blowing through the peace held together by a wall, only a sheet thick
I make a mess of the room
and the world making an outrageous return
with gloom
hide the earth, a city where your shoes never get dirty
this city changed me, killed my heart
a sudden downpour, if it wets the city and me
I've known from the start, it was an excuse.
What makes me sad?
That I can't cry, I suppose.
the morning glow paints the city red
the days go on and on, I screamed for tomorrow
in a corner of this city I despise
I try, for the moment, to smile just a little

Title: 9gatsu 3kka no Kokuin (The Hallmark of September the 3rd)
Words: ?
Music: ?
I was thrown down the drain ,
without even receiving a name
everyday dreaming of the world of light
the days I'd lived, meaningless.
Left behind, everyday I cry,
that I was born unwanted.
hey you, sneakin' a glance at me as you walk by,
don't you feel anything?
the only time I could see the person I should have loved,
was a brief sad time.
surrounded by strangers, today I was beaten to death.
I wish for such a wonderful dream,
without pain, and suffering
the bit of light I could barely see, wiped it all away
remember grown-ups
where you're supposed to be
remember why you were born in the first place
everyone is being blinded by the false light in their eyes.
they can't see the light they're supposed to see
they don't even try to see it
remember grown-ups
where the place you yourselves formed is
remember for whose sake you were born in the first place
realize grown-ups
your own ugliness
recognize it, and atone
for the sins you've commited.
Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma
Translator's Notes: The title makes me think of someone speaking dramatically about the day they were born.

Title: Soushin no Koe (The Voice of Two Hearts)
Words: ?
Music: ?
'I love you' so much the lips I kiss with are wearing away
'let us always be together' so that we never part.
I like your pretty fingers, your lily white skin
the long thin nape of your neck,
your liquid eyes, your clear voice, your thin lips
'I love you' I kiss so as not to attract attention
I held to you like as if possesed, to keep you from going anywhere.
I like your pretty hair, your slight shoulders,
your gently sloping back
your face from the side, your laughter,
and your sweet scent
ah love has just now, died before my eyes
ah love has just now, died as if to going to sleep
ah love has just now, died before my eyes
ah love has just now, died as if to going to sleep

Title: Zetsubou (Depsair)
Words: ?
Music: ?
Everyone died. Everything blossoming into pieces.
I was left at the edge of the wilds, all alone.
the words "surely tomorrow...", are valueless trash
I know, I'll mimic a suicide, maybe that'll make it a little easier.
surrounded by a despair deep and dark,
that hand I frantically grabbed onto
was a memory of someone very dear to me
torn to tatters until it disappeared.
it hurts, IT HURTS, it hurts
at last I found a bit of hope
but even that is now rotting.
I'm sick of hearing the words " one day your 'dreams' will come true'
you hypocrites who speak so lightly of 'hope' can ******' die.
in this place where there's nothing but 'loneliness'
what should I want?
in this place where there's nothing but 'despair'
what should I seek?

it hurts, IT HURTS, it hurts
at last a found a bit of hope
but even that is now rots
there's no one, and nothing
not even pain remains here
I one should do to live, I couldn't find out what that is
now I am, I am just surrounded by a flooding loneliness
I chew on the grass, on the hallucinatory sky
and walk slowly.
