The apparent incompetence syndrome of a certain girl

或る少女の可視不全症候群 (Aru shoujo no kashi fuzen shoukougun)
Circle: Water Color Melody.
Vocals: 蒼-aoi-
Lyrics: Mano
Arrange: tomoya
Album: セーラー服と夢の色彩に関する考察
有頂天変 ~ Wonderful Heaven  (Catastrophe in Bhava-agra ~ Wonderful Heaven), Tenshi Hinanawi’s Theme

Requested by Eiki.

Honestly, i didn’t expect the lyrics to be this dark…
Since i got a new computer, the format of the lyrics might be a bit different from now on because i started working with OpenOffice instead of Microsoft Word ^^
Might change it back to normal later.

*不全:(title) also “failure, insufficiency, dysfunction, deficiency, distress”
*誰も触れはしないの: no pronoun here, i just assumed it means “don’t touch me” as in ‘don’t wake me up /don’t interfere with this’
*あなたはどこへ隠れて: “you” as in her reflection in the mirror she sees . Also i think she barely recognizes herself in the mirror (maybe talking to her “other self”?)
*開き直れば: lots of meanings here, could also be “to pull oneself together”, “to accept a challenge”
*触れるだけでいいのに: lit. “i’m okay with just touching”, i changed “touch” to “feel” since i’m not sure what she is referring to


 

時計の針が示す直線 憂鬱がまた始まっていく
鏡の前で気の抜けた顔 いつも通りと思って油断していた
tokei no hari ga shimesu chokusen yuuutsu ga mata hajimatte iku
kagami no mae de ki no nuketa kao itsumo toori to omotte yudan shite ita

the ticking clock hands show a straight line, melancholy hits me again
in front of the mirror, a frustrated face, as always i think about how careless i was

またたく内に青ざめてゆく その顔に空く無数の穴
訳もわからず隠しましたが塞がらなくて けれど痛みもなくて
matataku uchi ni aozamete yuku sono kao ni aku musuu no ana
wake mo wakarazu kakushimashita ga fusagara nakute keredo itami mo nakute

inside i suddenly turn pale, i see countless holes torn into that face
without knowing the reason, i tried to hide and shut it away, though there is no pain

眠るたびに透ける手足 まぼろしの癖にもがいて
夜だって空は見えるのに 誰も触れはしないの
nemuru tabi ni sukeru teashi maboroshi no kuse ni mogaite
yoru datte sora wa mieru noni daremo fure wa shinai no

although i struggle every time i sleep, my limbs turn into a see-through illusion
because at night i can finally see the sky, i won’t let anyone touch me

時計の針が示す直線 憂鬱がまた形を変え
鏡の前で問い掛けてみる あなたはどこへ隠れてしまわれたの
tokei no hari ga shimesu chokusen yuuutsu ga mata katachi wo kae
kagami no mae de toikakete miru anata wa doko he kakurete shimawareta no

the ticking clock hands show a straight line, my melancholy changes shape again
in front of the mirror, i look at you and start asking where you have been hiding

眠るたびに思い出すの 消えたいと願う自分を
夢だってそれは叶うのに 誰も望んでいないの
nemuru tabi ni omoidasu no kietai to negau jibun wo
yume datte sore wa kanau noni daremo nozonde inai no

everytime i sleep, i remember how i wish to disappear
because in my dream, that which nobody else longs for, can come true

抑圧なんてされない立場 不安は徐々になくなるの
神様の罰? それも愛でしょう 開き直れば快適です
これが醒めない夢ならば
もう二度と
起きることがないよう
祈っています
yokuatsu nante sarenai tachiba fuan wa jojo ni nakunaru no
kamisama no batsu? sore mo ai deshou hirakinaoreba kaiteki desu
kore ga samenai yume naraba
mou nidoto
okiru koto ga nai you
inotte imasu

a viewpoint without supression, even my fears are slowly fading away
god’s punishment? I’m sure that’s just his love, it’d be pleasant if this got serious now
if this is a never ending dream
then i will
keep praying that
i’ll never wake up again

いつかは治る病 まぼろしの癖にもがいて
夜にこそ星は見えるのに 誰も触れはしないの
itsuka wa naoru yamai maboroshi no kuse ni mogaite
yoru ni koso hoshi wa mieru noni daremo fure wa shinai no

although it’s just an illusion, i keep struggling and one day this disease will heal
because at night, i can see the stars, i won’t let anyone touch me

触れるだけでいいのに
fureru dake de ii noni

i just want to feel it
