Songs That Mean Something

ALONES - Aqua Timez

Oreta awai tsubasa

Mou dareka no tame janakute
Jibun no tame ni waratte ii yo

Uchigawa ni tomoru rousoku
Nigiwau ba ni gouka na shanderia to wa urahara ni
Tarinai kotoba no
Kubomi o nani de umetara ii n’ darou
Mou wakaranai yo

Nuritsubusa nakute mo asu ni mukaeru no ni

Oreta awai tsubasa

Aosugiru sora ni tsukareta dake sa
Mou dareka no tame ja nakute
Jibun no tame ni waratte ii yo

Rettoukan to no wakai wa

Kasabuta ni kowatte iku
Kimi wa sore o matazu
Totemo utsukushiku

Hiwamari no naka de furueru inori
Ima wa muri ni dareka no koto wo
Ai sou to omowanakute ii no ni

[Instrumental]

Toki ni kono sekai wa

Kawaita chimen ga namida wo susuru
Why do you feel so

Subete wo uketomenakute ii yo
Why do you feel so
Alone anytime
Koraeru koto dakedo
Yuuki ja nai

I never thought I can find a few songs that closely described me. Its kind of like my life into a song. Each represents a part in my life, how I feel and how it is everyday.

For those who aren't Japanese literate(like me).

ALONES(ENG) - Aqua Timez

Pale broken wings,
you're just a little tired
from the sky which is too blue
Don't do it for anyone else
Just smile for yourself

loneliness is still creeping up,
A candle lit up inside
totally incompatible with a splendid, bustling party

The hollowness of
the absence of your words, is it ok just to bury them?
I still don't know

At least within dreams
If I can swim freely even if there isn't anywhere like that,
Even if everything until now is forgotten,
Even if I can face tomorrow...

Pale broken wings,
you're just a little tired
from the sky which is too blue
Don't do it for anyone else
Just smile for yourself

The peacefulness of inferiority
won't come true so simply
Settling above your self consciousness
A petal reflected by a mirror

Straining my lungs,
tryin' to call dirtied love,
however, it's so frustrating

As times are passing
My wounds are cursed
My scabs are changed
You haven't got that
So beautiful
Yet so short lived

After the scabs fall off
Just like the newer, shorter hair near the scar
My prayer are shaking in the bright light
I won't forcibly
try to love you...

Sometimes, in this world
When we try to walk ahead,
it's a little too bright, isn't it?
It's like we're sinking
When we feel like giving up,
the dry land sucks up our tears

Why do we feel so alone anytime?
Why do we feel so alone anytime?
We don't have to take it all, you know
Why do we feel so alone anytime?
Simple refrain isn't courage……..


Sen no Yoru wo Koete(ENG) - Aqua Timez

I want to be loved, but you don’t seem to love me
I wander within that repetition
I found one answer; that even if I’m scared, even if I’m hurt
I can say “I love you” to the person who I love

Do you love me? Or not love me?
As for things like that, it’s already fine either way
No matter how I wish
There are many unchangeable things in this world, right?
That’s right, and because only the fact of my loving you
Is the truth unchangeable by anyone

I want to overcome the thousands of nights and tell it to you
There’s something that I must tell you
I want to be loved, but you don’t seem to love me
I wander within that repetition
I found one answer; that even if I’m scared
Even if I’m hurt, I can say “I love you” to the person who I love
It’s scary to turn my feelings into words
But I can say “I love you” to the person who I love

In this broad world, I can’t express the joy of encountering you with words
So we smile, sing about the vividly passing autumn in do-re-mi
Turn our backs on winter, wait for the sunlight streaming through trees in spring
And become reborn anew, so that we can protect someone

On the path we came from and our destination, when we looked back, I’d always have timid eyes
I want to face you, but I can’t be honest
I, who repeated days of not being able to straightforwardly love my partner
And hated being alone on that day
Seemed to love people while unwounded

I’ll overcome the thousands of nights and go meet you now
There is something that I must tell you
I want to be loved, but you don’t seem to love me
I wander within that repetition
I found one answer; that even if I’m scared
Even if I’m hurt, I can say “I love you” to the person who I love
Even if those thoughts aren’t fulfilled, I can say “I love you” to the person who I love


Ketsui no Asa ni(ENG) - Aqua Timez

If you want to do something,
then sketch out your pitiful dream
If you want to do something,
then sketch out your dream
with badly lit, but pleasant love
“You don’t have to pretend, not being very cool suits you well”

The more effort we put into it,
the more fruitless our journey is
Our hands and fleet fly everywhere
like we’re in an elementary school parade
Living life, isn’t it great?
So being laughed at by people definitely feels alright

The real me is shut away in the depths of my heart
36/5 human,
to put it plainly now, we don’t stop
But I’m still acting tough,
I’m still putting up a barrier
I’m fighting with the pain

Times are tough, I wish I could say that;
that’s how I feel
We’re a couple of laughing cowards, acting tough
Even though I’m lonely,
I’m pretending to be just fine
In order to protect myself,
who feels like he’s about to crumble

It shouldn’t be only me that feels these feelings
of having no place to turn to
I’m carrying with me
This rootless loneliness…

I’m indifferent to the pain of others
When I’m really being myself, I get insecure
I hate people, and I think only of being unhappy
I whine about the things that I’m deprived of
I scream and cry like a 3 year old kid
I’m sitting and waiting for my afternoon snack,
called love

Not giving in to the reflection in the asphalt
Walking with my own feet,
I looked at people, and thought
If I could move,
if there was a place I wanted to head to
Then I would walk there with my own feet

There were nights when
I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to
Get my real smile back again
Supported by the warmth of the people that I love
I thought that maybe I should try to believe,
one more time

Times are tough, I wish I could say that;
that’s how I feel
We’re a couple of laughing cowards, acting tough
Even though I’m lonely,
I’m pretending to be just fine
In order to protect myself,
who feels like he’s about to crumble, but

My mistakes and scars, being perplexed
and the days when I was about to cry
They’re all proof that I lived my life, as myself
If you want to do something, then from now on
Sketch out your pitiful dream,
with more strength than anyone else
Readying your explanation, and holding your head high
without hesitation
Keep on singing about a person called yourself


Yes, I AM an Aqua Timez Addict so, live with it.

Ja na.
Yuuichi-kun
