I like the idea I love all Gazette songs/lyrics but my favourites are Miseinen and Tokyo Shinjuu soooo...
TOKYO SHINJUU
The person that I love is my all
You are here so I can be myself
"Dad, Mom, I decided to live with him in Tokyo. I know that is stupid, but I'm not a child anymore. I can think for myself. I'm sorry. Please forgive my last selfishness."
The ticket to Tokyo you gave me and the dream that you told me
"Will you come to Tokyo and live with me?"
I was a little bit upset but I was happy
I was not afraid at all because you are with me
We will have a really hard time in the future
I left my family that I trust to come here, my attachments and immature ideas
To have a new life with you and your dream
I am poor in Tokyo but I have you
My happiness overflows even when I am waiting for you to come home
I cook your favorite dinner from my heart
I want to see your happy face...I want to see you
"I am getting used to living in Tokyo. He works hard until midnight every day.
Recently, he doesn't look energetic. When I ask him something, he just smiles tiredly.
He doesn't say anything. I'm very worried."
"I'm home."
Your very sweet voice
When we had a hard time we always supported each other
No matter how much misfortune we had we were fine with each other
It doesn't mean this love is over
Our feelings just turned away*
The night he lost against society, he cried for the first time
Tell me how I can cheer him up
The happy family that I lost for my dream
They cry out of regret
We are poor to the bone
We take each others hands
We look at the out-of-season hanabi*
After the small fire is dropped, so is all our attachment to the world
Close our eyes and jump into the cold sea...together
Our hands come apart
You and I become nothing
(You and I become nothing)*
"I spent three months together with you. So many things happened.
I understood you so much because we lived together. You are tired of working, aren't you?
I'm fine because I will be with him forever. I'm sorry Dad and Mom.
I can't live without him. I'm sorry I made you worry a lot. I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
I Bet it would have been difficult to write a song from a girl's perspective ☝
MISEINEN
I was frantically looking for something.
It's okay to stumble, so go forward.
I know it's foolish, I just run on without regret.
The only one I can trust is myself, I didn't need friends.
The fangs I bared at anything and everything,
sexual stuff in adolescence is delicate and fleeting.
I wanna be strong, give me the strength to live on my own,
honestly, I was just scared of betrayal.
I knew that nothing would change if I kept running away
but I couldn't change myself.
The loneliness I prided myself on
was a pair of wings to escape to my worthless dreams.
The self assertion I prided myself on called 'RIOT',
there was no freedom, nothing beyond this light.
Teenage Bluely Days,
I was drowning in each rough new day.
Before I knew it I was shouldering such loneliness.
It was hard. To be honest,
I really didn't want to be on my own.
Since always pretending to be strong makes one forget one's true face.
It's important to occassionally loosen up and rely on others.
Hurt... When you want to cry, face the great big sky
and scream out in a loud voice.
That you want to forget yourself, so you can keep being who you are.
The encouraging voices of my father, my mother, and my friends
spurred on, even one so weak as myself, they gave me light.
The loneliness and pain of my youth that I prided myself on
were a pair of wings to escape to my worthless dreams.
If there's a freedom to be had in that clear blue sky
I wouldn't care if these wings I'm so proud of were torn off.
I began running, frantically aiming for the sky
I spread my wings and flew away, and the spot where I fell
was 'freedom'.
With a wonderful family, and wonderful friends
these were the best days of my life, if I'm reborn
let's meet again...
so sad!!!
