Bad end no tsuzuki wo – Haruka to Miyuki

バッドエンドの続きを (Baddo endo no tsuzuki wo) – After the bad ending

from Sekai album.

——

If I had done something
The ending would be changed
But the story I’ve illustrated
Is always cruel

I remain at the ticket gate
Of the station you’d never alight at again
The date on the ticket in my hand
Still spells out that day

I was the one who waved away
The hand you extended to me

What I had been searching for
Doesn’t matter anymore
A bad ending suits me well.

If I could have the chance to proceed down
The path not chosen
The you in my memories would smile and say
“How convenient is that?”

If I could see you once again
What would I say to you?

I’ve always known the truth
That the last page is empty
Though I pretended not to.

Even now, I’ve always
Walked on, not knowing the ending
While envying the outcome of that “maybe”

Even so, someday
Regret will become the answer
Till then, I’ll survive, believing in what’s coming
After the bad ending

Kimi wa mada shiranai – Haruka to Miyuki

君はまだ知らない (Kimi wa mada shiranai) – You still don’t know

from Sekai album.

——

Having cut her hair
The girl glared at the sky
As she blew out cigarette smoke
At a corner of the rooftop

The rain has stopped
Drenched, she got cold
The cat she spotted
Crouching in the corner cried softly

“Hey, I’m surely the only one
Who loves others so much that it hurts”

Unable to cry, just destroying
Don’t force yourself to smile
Don’t be afraid of being left alone
All these cruel days
That seem to last forever
Ah, when will they end?

The cherry blossoms wilt at the back of the school yard
She blocked her eyes
It was laughable
How much she wants to do bad things.

Ah, everything inside me
If I can give it all to you

The strength of being alone
The gentleness after knowing pain
Even if they’re all drowned out by filthy voices
Just speak of your love
Embrace your treasure
And never let go again.

There are no miracles
There is nothing but life
I’ll always wait here
Until we meet.
Holding your trembling fingers
Watching the rain stop
Ah, until you smile.

Kanojo – AKB48

Performed by Miyawaki Sakura.

彼女 (Kanojo) – Her

from Koko ga Rhodes da, koko de tobe! album.

The train station rotary
Hasn’t changed at all
As well as these stairs which I’ve not taken in years
I didn’t tell anyone
That I’ve returned to my hometown
I just felt that I couldn’t see her yet

That night when I confessed
That I would be leaving this city
In order to stand on stage
We cried together
And promised to meet again

In the midst of my dreams
The future has always been
A place I can’t imagine
I’ve still not matured enough yet
So until that sparkling day
When I can puff out my chest with pride
I’ll never go to see her

Who did she hear it from?
The news that I’ve returned
She suddenly came to my house
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
She said in a huff, angry
Before embracing me with all her might

“Though I want to see you
Become an unreachable star
The sight of you working hard now
Is still dazzling”
She smiled with tears in her eyes

“A step towards their dreams
Everyone surely shines
When they take that step”
Even though I didn’t realize it myself
My most treasured best friend
Who has been watching me from the same place
Taught me that

In the midst of my dreams
The future has always been
A place I can’t imagine
I’ve still not matured enough yet
So until that sparkling day
When I can puff out my chest with pride
I’ll never go to see her

へなちょこサポート (Henachoko sapooto) – Novice support

from Koko ga Rhodes da, koko de tobe! album.

If you happen to
Meet with sad things
Just remember me
Smiling for you

Don’t lean against the wall
Of the empty school gym
Rather than nurse your troubles
Come back to class

It’s alright
I’m just a novice, but
I have lots of love
And I’ll always stay by your side
So take your time and stand up
It doesn’t matter
Whether you talk about what happened
Don’t be embarrassed by your tears
Nobody can be that tough

Even though I want to call out to you
I keep silent now
Just remember this
You are not alone

When was it, when I cried
On the dance floor
And you quietly picked up my bag
And said “let’s go home”?

It’s alright
I’m sorry for being a novice
But rely on me
Even though I can’t solve your troubles
It’ll be easier if we bear it together
Yes, you can be uncool
In front of me
Because I know just how cool you can be
I’ll embrace the weakness you can’t show to others

It’s alright
I’m just a novice, but
I have lots of love
And I’ll always stay by your side
So take your time and stand up
It doesn’t matter
Whether you talk about what happened
Don’t be embarrassed by your tears
Nobody can be that tough

Conveyor

Conveyor
Conveyor

On the train station stairs
Everyone just goes with the flow
Lined up in rows
Without feeling any doubt

Being borne by the train
Do I just need to get on?
It’s my own life
But I put it in the hands of others

Just like a
Conveyor
In the same direction
A moving (moving) belt (belt)
Where is my identity?
Conveyor
Rather than losing my way
This is much easier
But if that’s the case
Then it doesn’t have to be me
There’s just as many replacements, right?
The majority

Conveyor
Conveyor

The thought came one day
That I need to start something
Just what have I
Been doing all this while?

Unable to find out what I want to do
Not knowing the meaning of life
I’ve just been walking along the road leading from today
To tomorrow

Always
Forever
Over the endless cliff
Just what (what) is waiting (is waiting?)
Where are my possibilities?
Forever
Staying at the entrance to dreams
Is not striving hard
That’s just an excuse
In hopes of seeing
Something at the end of all the work
A clue

Conveyor
I’ll escape from here
Just (just) a line (line)
I don’t want to be controlled by that
Conveyor
I know what’s coming
An assembly line
“I am me”
My heart screams
Just push me out of the crowds
I won’t be dragged into lengthy things
Don’t want to become a convenient product
My life!

Saisho no ai no monogatari – AKB48

Performed by Owada Nana, Kawaei Rina and Takahashi Juri.

最初の愛の物語 (Saisho no ai no monogatari) – The first love story

from Koko ga Rhodes da, koko de tobe! album.

——

Whenever I fall in love
The sorrow comes and it hurts to breathe
And when we pass each other along the hallway, I look down in reflex

I wanted to protect this precious thing
My feelings towards you in the bottom of my heart

The first love story
Will continue to forever, unfulfilled
No matter if I confess or not
You will always, always be in my memories

When I fell in love with you
I watched you from afar
And understood why I was born a girl

Amidst the spring wind and sunshine in the school yard
The flowerbuds finally start to break open

The first love story
Beautiful tears flowing down these cheeks
Tell of my feelings now
Much, much more than words ever can

The first love story
Will continue to forever, unfulfilled
No matter if I confess or not
You will always, always be in my memories

The first love story
Beautiful tears flowing down these cheeks
Tell of my feelings now
Much, much more than words ever can
