Requested by Edward.
So hey guys, i’m not dead, i was on vacation for a while and  had some personal issues to face but now i’m back home and i will try to translate a little more.
about this song, well it’s pretty sad and i think it’s obvious it’s about a fight between the singer and his mom (?). time passed and he still can’t bring himself to talk to her or apologize, thinking he’s a coward or a good-for-nothing.
might revise this whole thing later, please excuse any mistakes for now!

*ノート : actually “note book”, replaced with “diary” instead
* 落とした瓶の蓋: not sure if this refers to alcohol abuse of some sort?
*コード : can either mean “chords” or “codes”, it’s up to you here
*もうなんか しょうもないとか笑いあって: a little unsure about this one too…

遠くにある景色は 静かな夢を見てた
空に溶ける声を　何度も 何度も
tooku ni aru keshiki wa shizukana yume wo miteta
kuu ni tokeru koe wo nando mo nando mo

in a distant land, i dreamt a silent dream
i heard that voice melting into nothingness over and over

重ねてくノートは 想いの数だけ
忘れたくないから ただ それだけ
落とした瓶の蓋の音が 響いていた 乾いた部屋
kasaneteku nooto wa omoi no kazu dake
wasuretakunai kara tada soredake
otoshita bin no futa no oto ga hibiite ita kawaita heya

my countless thoughts overlap within this diary
i just don’t want to forget any of them, that’s all
the sound of a falling bottle lid echoes in this dry room

「じゃあね、またね、逢える時まで」
守れない約束していく
jaa ne, mata ne, aeru toki made
mamorenai yakusoku shite iku

‘see you soon, until then, until we meet again’
making a promise i can’t keep

忘れたい今日を壊して
夢でもいい 君と笑いたい
ごめんねも言えない私は
だいたいさ もうなんか 消えたいとか口ずさんで
wasuretai kyou wo kowashite
yume demo ii kimi to waraitai
gomen ne mo ienai watashi wa
daitai sa mou nanka kietai toka kuchizusande

i break the today i want to forget about
even if it’s just in dreams, i want to laugh with you
i can’t even say i’m sorry
somehow, i find myself humming that i wish to disappear

繰り返すコードも 後悔の分だけ
見えない不安も ごまかしたいだけ
kurikaesu koudo mo koukai no bun dake
mienai fuan mo gomakashitai dake

the repeating chords/ codes are just minutes of regret
i just want to veil all these invisible fears

「じゃあね、またね、逢える時まで」
嘘ついたまま消えていく
jaa ne, mata ne, aeru toki made
uso tsuita mama kieteiku

‘see you, until then, until we meet again’
i lie as i vanish

戻りたい昨日閉ざして
嘘でもいい 君と話したい
後悔が癒えないくらいで
大概さ　もうなんか　会えないとか思えないな
modoritai kinou tozashite
uso demo ii kimi to hanashitai
koukai ga ienai kurai de
taigai sa mou nanka aenai toka omoenai na

the yesterday i want to return to is cut off
even if it’s all lies, i just want to talk to you
there are no words for all this regret i feel
most of all, i don’t think we’ll never meet again

声を遮るように響く
音は通り過ぎていく
単純な言葉なのに
一緒にいたいが言えない
koe wo saegiru you ni hibiku
oto wa toorisugite iku
tanjun’na kotoba nanoni
issho ni itai ga ienai

that voice echoes interruptedly
the sounds fade away
such simple words and yet
i just can’t say i want to be with you

守りたい明日を願って
この声で君に伝えたい
居座ってるだけの今を
だいたいさ 強がって 弱がって ひねくれてんだ
mamoritai asu wo negatte
kono koe de kimi ni tsutaetai
isuwatteru dake no ima wo
daitai sa tsuyogatte yowagatte hinekurete nda

i’m wishing for a tomorrow i can protect
with this voice of mine i want to tell you
but right now i’m just sitting still
mostly, it’s either pretending to be strong or weak

守りたい今日を溶かして
心から 君と笑いたい
また明日 が終わる日まで
だいたいさ もうなんか しょうもないとか笑いあって
mamoritai kyou wo tokashite
kokoro kara kimi to waraitai
mata ashita ga owaru hi made
daitai sa mou nanka shou mo nai toka warai atte

the today i wanted to protect is fading
from the bottom of my heart i want to laugh with you
see you again tomorrow, until day’s end
on the whole, something stupid like laughing together

original arrangement

Requested by Eiki. Sorry it took a while again, university is horrible sometimes … anyways i couldn’t really figure out who did the arrange or lyrics,
so you guys might want to inform my dumb self about that ^-^

My guess for this song is that it’s about a broken relationship because the two of them don’t see each other much (long-distance relationship?) , guy is bored and fed up with everything,
he wants to break free from the tediousness, but even so he kinda seems to feel sorry about the whole situation while knowing that they’re both stuck with it.

*  なかったことにしたい: not entirely sure if i got this right
* 水の中飛ぶ鳥: “birds flying into the water” is rather literal, i think he means that situation when a bird flies downwards to catch some water to drink
*そんなこと言ってみたい: ” i want to try saying that”
*ありきたり : “arikitari” is ‘habits, that you repeat every day’
*僕を除いていく: “nozoite” as derived from the verb

簡単に決めつけた判断は
ばらばらになってさいしょから
なかったことにしたい
なんて　もう
ごまかせない雨に
がらくたみたいな僕の歌
とけてってくれよ
kantan ni kimetsuketa handan wa
barabara ni natte sai sho kara
nakatta koto ni shitai nante mou
gomakasenai ame ni
garakuta mitaina boku no uta
tokete tte kure yo

our easily made decisions were
in scrambles since the beginning
i wish to do what we didn’t do
i don’t want to tell a lie, i want
this rain to erase this trash-like song
of mine already

水たまりに反射して
上下反転した空と地面
水の中飛ぶ鳥とかけっこ
途切れて　さよなら　またあした
mizutamari ni hansha shite
jouge hanten shita sora to jimen
mizu no naka tobutori to kakekko
togirete sayonara mata ashita

reflecting in this puddle
the sky and the earth turned upside down
i’m racing against the birds flying into the water
as i falter, goodbye, see you tomorrow

君の街は今何時？
ただ単に訊いただけ。
「僕らの夜は明けない」
そんなこと言ってみたい
kimi no machi wa ima nanji?
tada tan ni kiita dake
‘bokura no yoru wa akenai’
sonna koto itte mitai

what time is it in your town now?
i simply just asked about it but
‘our night will never dawn’
that’s what i want to say

ありきたりに溺れて
飽きたら捨てて戻って
それで回る自転 の 輪
繰り返す毎日の
軸はまだ見えない
知らないよ君の意見なんて
arikitari ni oborete
akitara sutete modotte
sore de mawaru jitensha no wa
kurikaesu mainichi no
jiku wa mada mienai
shiranai yo kimi no iken nante

i’m drowning in dullness
once it bores me, i throw it away but it gets back at me
like a bycicle’s wheel spinning round
my everyday life repeats
i can’t see the axis yet
in the end, i don’t care about your opinion

曖昧に対象も無く淡々と
走り出したらまたさいしょから
わかったふりをしていて痛いな
溶けていく鼓動 雨に
がらくたみたいな毎日も
消えてってくれよ
aimai ni taishou mo naku tantan to
hashiridashitara mata saisho kara
wakatta furi wo shite ite itai na
tokete iku kodou ame ni
garakuta mitaina mainichi mo
kiete tte kure yo

without a clear target, once i start
running indifferently from the start again
it hurts, pretending to knew it all along
my heartbeat is fading within this rain
i want my trash-like everyday life
to disappear already

静かな日々反射して
ほつれ反転した空と地面
自分の中もう一人とかけっこ
途切れて　さよなら　またあした
shizukana hibi hansha shite
hotsure hanten shita sora to jimen
jibun no naka mou hitori to kakekko
togirete sayonara mata ashita

reflecting these silent days
hanging loose, the sky and the earth are inverted
within me, i run a race against my other self
as i falter, goodbye, see you tomorrow

引き伸ばしたまだ三時
ただ単に止めただけ。
「僕らの夜は明けない」
外はもう明けたみたい
hikinobashita mada sanji
tada tanni tometa dake
‘bokura no yoru wa akenai’
soto wa mou aketa mitai

staved off to three o’ clock
but everything simply stopped
‘our night will never dawn’
but outside, it seems like it’s dawned already

ここにいる 揺らいでいる
振り返る僕を除いていく
飛び出したって戻らないよ
どうやら僕らも止まれないみたいだ
気まぐれに言葉さえも 気持ちさえも 伝わらんみたいだ
言葉濁したリバーブもさよなら バイバイ
koko ni iru yuraide iru
furikaeru boku wo nozoite iku
tobidashitatte modoranai yo
douyara bokura mo tomarenai mitaida
kimagure ni kotoba sae mo kimochi sae mo tsutawaran mitaida
kotoba nigoshita ribaabu mo sayonara baibai

now we’re here, swaying
i look back as you leave me behind
once i started to fly, i’ll never come back
but somehow, it seems like we can’t stop
i can’t seem to deliver any words nor feelings to you on a whim
my words blur along with their reverb, so goodbye, farewell

簡単に決めつけた判断は
ばらばらになってさいしょから
なかったことにしたい
なんて　もう
ごまかせない雨に
がらくたみたいな僕の歌
とけてってくれよ
kantan ni kimetsuketa handan wa
barabara ni natte saisho kara
nakatta koto ni shitai
nante mou
gomakasenai ame ni
garakuta mitaina boku no uta
tokete tte kure yo

our easily made decisions were
in scrambles since the beginning
i wish to do what we didn’t do
i don’t want to tell a lie, i want
this rain to erase this trash-like
song of mine

今も 僕は ここにいるよ
正しいことなんて何もないよ
忘れさせてよ 忘れさせてよ
「僕らの夜は明けない」
ima mo boku wa koko ni iru yo
tadashii koto nante nani mo nai yo
wasuresasete yo wasuresasete yo
‘bokura no yoru wa akenai’

and even now, i’m still here
there are no ‘right’ things anymore
let me forget it all, let me forget it all
‘our night will never dawn’
