so many ppl love jrock because of their lyrics and creativity. We should post what lyrics we love and the jrock bands/singers who wrote them.:-)
 
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!!!

yays! Lyrics! one of my favs...THE FINAL By Dir en Grey


The intention is clear, I stare, with this left hand, unable
to be worded
Every time I bleed, there lies the reason to live ... And I
discover words being so vivid and bright

Even loved ones scatter like petals from flowers in my hand
So even if I engraved the meaning that I lived in my hand, it
will only be known as flowers of vanity

The Final

One by one it multiplies ... why be a sad bait?

Deep within the hell of my heart ... I can't go back
A self-torture loser, not being able to see tomorrow
Suicide is the proof of life

Even loved ones scatter like petals from flowers in my hand
So even if I engraved the meaning that I lived in my hand, it
will only be known as flowers of vanity

So I can't live
What's lost can't be born again

A song that's not even seeking the proof of living
Let's put an end ... The Final

Lets bloom flowers of attempted suicide
 
As beautiful as those lyrics are... we need something to cheerful too! This isn't my favourite L'Arc song, but it's one of my favourite 'happy!' songs.


I Wish

Don't cry, on nights like this
Embrace your knees all by yourself
Because you keep waiting and rushing about
Before bells ring at midnight

Open up that window and take a look at this
The town is already overflowing with miracles
You can even hear a precious song
Riding on that heavenly organ

So you don't lose faith
If you would just bat those eyes for me once more

...look!

So many pure white angels come floating down for you
When you laugh, we'll celebrate this most blessed night

Because we gave out so much love
If you make a wish even the sky will seem to be swimming

...look!

You're so much more precious than anyone else
And so I hope you always smile no matter how many years pass by
No matter what becomes of me, I'll be praying
That forever and ever,
you'll be happy
 
Those are one of my favourite lyrics! :-)

Le Ciel by Malice Mizer


led by a gentle voice...
the lily white tears fall into the wind,
keeping the time,
eyes that have never known impurity,
look at me, and reflect the endless forever reaching earth.
with a tiny finger you trace the lines of my forgotten tears.
your voice thin and clear won't let go of me
eventhough I can't stay here any longer.
Ah... the fallen tears are my words of farewell
Without a word, you placed a hand on my chest, and smiled.
I kissed your cheek... I won't forget you.
hold me tighter, until I return to the sky.
your voice, thin and clear won't let go of me
hold me tighter so I don't disappear
so I don't disappear...


Endless Rain by X Japan

I'm walking in the rain,
though everything seems to be hurting me for some reason.
There is only nothing.
Just kill me now ... as I roam forever.
Until I can forget your love.
To me sleep is a confusing, narcotic
that only quiets the beating heart.
All my love seems to flow from my body like a heart felt memory.
I keep my love for you to myself.
*Endless rain, fall on my heart In this wounded soul.
Let me forget, all of the hate, all of the sadness,
Days of joy, days of sadness slowly pass me by.
As I try to hold you, you are vanishing before me.
You're just an illusion.
When I am awake, my tears have dried in the sands of sleep.
I'm a rose blooming in the desert.
It's a dream, I'm in love with you.
Hold me warmly in your arms.
I awake from my dream
I can't find my way without you
The dream is over.
I can no longer hear the voice of your gentle words.
Floating off tear stained walls.
So awakening in the morning, I'll move into my dreams ...
until I can forget your love.
repeat *
Endless rain, fall on my heart, in this wounded soul.
Let me forget, all of the hate, all of the sadness.
Endless rain, let me stay a memory in your heart.
Let me take in your tears, take in your memories.


Stay Away by Laruku

on a planet that's slipped out
what I got was freedom.
maybe lucky maybe lucky
I dare say I'm lucky
How far can I go, following along on this rail ?
maybe lucky maybe lucky
I dare say I'm lucky.
I'm not attracted by a world made from a copy
but your future is there.
c'mon trying trying in yourself
causes stain stay away
causes stain stay away
brandnew sunlight pours on everyone.
maybe happy maybe happy
I dare say I'm happy.
Don't speak so loudly,
or (that sun) will set.
maybe happy maybe happy
I dare say I'm happy.
I am getting sick of the world twisting me.
don't step on your shadow.
c'mon trying trying in yourself.
causes stain stay away
causes stain stay away
causes stain stay away
right away oh ! BOTHER ME
From birth I've been exempt from laws
rolling pebbles.
c'mon trying trying in myself.
causes stain stay away
causes stain stay away
causes stain stay away
right away...
I'm like a floating cloud that none can catch.
destroying everything, I was born by freedom.
