L'Arc~en~Ciel Lyrics English Translation : Nexus 4

The english translation for Nexus 4... I finally finished it! Totally different one from SHINE... this lyric is, I dunno... FIERCE. This song is quite a resemblance of me... well, us. Indeed we are 'THE VIRTUAL GENERATION'. This song encourages us to set up on a journey to find our solid identities in this dazzling 'space age', where everything moves so fast it's all blurry. Sometimes, we're just not even sure who we really are. Ever felt that way?

So... Right away! Say 3,2,1, GO! XD

NEXUS 4

2008/Nexus 4-SHINE single music/words: tetsu/hyde
Translation : kisetsu

Atenaku tadayou TRAFFIC JAM
Machi wa mochitsu yo sosogu ame wa ACID RAIN
Asu e no kuuseki mo naku
Mayoeru bokura wa yumemiteru ELECTRIC SHEEP
Flowing inside a traffic jam with no place to go
The town was still, poured by acid rain
There's no empty seat towards tomorrow
We're wandering aimlessly, like electric sheep in the dreams

Itsu kuru ka shirenai akogare no toki
Kusuburu kanjou wa, tada damatte matterarenai
One day maybe there'll come a time
Where we all would yearn for all the burning feelings
Don't just keep silent and wait

Miageta nara yozora o kirisaite
Kake noboru JET bokura o michibiku
Sabitsuita hane wa mada kuchi hatecha inai
Yatsu yori atsui hoeageru tamashii
Saa mezamero NEXT AGE
When you look up at the night sky
You'll see a jet of light shooting up, guiding us all
My lonely wings have yet to reach its limit and died
My screaming soul is burning, fiercer than anyone else
Now let's welcome the next age

Musuu ni zoushoku suru TRAP
Hitotsu MISUreba waraitobasare DELETE
Mirai wa kasouteki kuukan e
Kekkyoku tashika na mono wa kono omoi dake sa.
Nagameru bakari no moe iku honou, bou ni furu CHANCE wo
tada damatte matterarenai
This countless traps keep on breeding
When a miss is made, just laugh and delete it
The future is just a vacuum at disguise
At the end, the only thing real to me is this memory
Merely staring at the burning flames, and throwing away your chances
Don't just keep silent and wait

Miageta nara yozora o kiri saite
Kake noboru JET bokura o michibiku
Shinjiru mama hashire kitto mada maniau
Hane agaru SPEED kesshite nogasanai
Saa tobinore NEXT AGE.
When you look up at the night sky
You'll see a jet of light shooting up, guiding us all
Believe it, you can still make it in time if you run now
This rising speed will not in anyway escape me
Now, let's jump to the next age


Tsukaisuteraretatte mikaeshite yaru sa
ZERO kara no jiyuu wo torikonda saikou no MONSTER
Even if they treat me as throw-aways, one day they'll look at me
The freedom from zero is taken, I'm the best monster!

Makiagatta gouon ni mamirete byouyomi no START
Kodou ni awasete say 3,2,1, GO!
Kimi ga miageta nara takaku kake noboru JET
Bokura ga tabidatsu
Saa tobinore SPACE AGE
YOU VIRTUAL GENERATION!
Bathed in a loud noise, we're counting seconds to our start
My heartbeat is racing, say 3,2,1, GO!
If you look up high, you'll find a jet of light shooting up
And we set up on a journey
Now, let's jump to the SPACE AGE
YOU VIRTUAL GENERATION!
