“open your eyes and look north”

*軽いのは重力だけ : not  sure about this, i’m open to any corrections though!
*世界は平等で: ~ “there are equally none of the following …”
* 神様の見えない手なんて言った奴: means, that “god’s hand” isn’t invisible at all, singer thinks that he is openly interfering with people’s daily lives all the time, even misfortune is his work
*神様だってさあ　面白い方がいいだろう？: i don’t even know what this is supposed to be about…

月の上の話を聞いたことはあるか？
軽いのは重力だけじゃないらしい
金貨と銃弾の価値には大差がないと
歴史とあの目が証明しているな
tsuki no ue no hanashi wo kiita koto wa aru ka?
karui no wa juuryoku dake ja nai rashii
kinka to juudan no kachi ni wa taisa ga nai to
rekishi to ano me ga shoumei shiteiru na

hey have you heard that story about the moon?
they say gravity isn’t the only light thing
where there is no big difference between gold and bullets
well, go and see for yourself then!

目を覚ませ
me wo samase

open your eyes

君にはまだこの街のルールを話してないな
たった一つだけさ　絶対に損をするな
世界は平等で 貴賎も絶対も優劣もありません
なんて言う奴を信じなければいい
kimi ni wa mada kono machi no ruuru wo hanashitenai na
tatta hitotsu dake sa zettai ni son wo suru na
sekai wa byoudou de kisen mo zettai mo yuuretsu mo arimasen
nante iu yatsu wo shinjinakereba ii

seems like no one told you anything about this city’s rules
but there is a single one that’s absolutely not missing out
in this world, there are no ranks, no totality, no relative merits
but better not believe someone who says that

明確な始まりなんて知らないな
meikaku na hajimari nante shiranai na

i still don’t know how to make a clear start

もう祈ったって何も終わりはこないぜ
そもそも現実 に正しさなんてない
神様だってもう　見飽きたと思うから
オルガンを響かせよう
mou inottatte nani mo owari wa konai ze
somosomo koko ni tadashisa nante nai
kamisama datte mou miakita to omou kara
orugan wo hibikaseyou

no matter how much i pray, the end won’t come
here, there wasn’t even any justice to begin with
because even god was tired of seeing this, i guess
now let this organ resound

絶対的な価値から全てを解き放てば
無限大に信用は肥大化する
その証明のような街の中で君は
何を掴みとって何を失う？
zettaiteki na kachi kara subete wo tokihanateba
mugendai ni shin’you wa hidaika suru
sono shoumei no you na machi no naka de kimi wa
nani wo tsukamitotte nani wo ushinau?

if you free yourself from all those absolute values
you need to increase your trust in infinity
Just like that proof, inside this town
what will you try to grasp, what will you lose?

正論なんて聞いてない
その言葉を言ったのは　君が最初ではない
つまりどうでもいいってことさ
seiron nante kiitenai
sono kotoba wo itta no wa kimi ga saisho de wa nai
tsumari dou demo ii tte koto sa

i won’t listen to your sound arguments
since you’re not the first one to tell me those words
in the long run, it doesn’t really matter at all

もうフロンティアなんてここにしかないぜ
そもそも人類 に限度なんてない
神様なんてもう　笑い転げてる頃だ
度し難い歌を歌おう
mou furontia nante koko ni shika nai ze
somosomo hito ni gendo nante nai
kamisama nante mou waraikorogeteru koro da
doshigatai uta wo utaou

the frontier is no longer right here
humanity doesn’t have any limits to begin with
this is the part where god is probably bursting with laughter
even so, let’s keep singing this song

結局のところ　楽しいだけなのさ
例えそれで　何があっても
神様の見えない手なんて言った奴は　
きっと知らない
kekkyoku no tokoro tanoshii dake na no sa
tatoe sore de nani ga atte mo
kamisama no mienai te nante itta yatsu wa
kitto shiranai

at last, this is all just for the sake of pleasure
even with this, no matter what happens
the guy who said god’s hand is invisible
surely doesn’t know

もう世界なんて誰にも見えない　
そもそも理想 に意思なんてない
神様だってさあ　面白い方がいいだろう？
度し難い歌を歌って
夜を明かそう　気付かれる前に
mou sekai nante dare ni mo mienai
somosomo sore ni ishi nante nai
kamisama datte saa omoshiroi hou ga ii darou?
doshigatai uta wo utatte
yo wo akasou kizukareru mae ni

now in this world, there is no one to be seen anymore
the ideal doesn’t have any purpose to begin with
i wonder, the almighty himself better be interesting
even so i’ll keep singing my song
let’s spend our nights like this before he finds out
