Temper

To quote Nate A.M. on his music review site, “did Minoshima genuinely think ‘DROP DAT FUCKIN’ KAZOO BRUH’ was a good stylistic choice?” I’m not a fan of it, parody or not, but the lyrics were short enough that I thought I might as well translate them. Not planning on doing “Regret” or the star platinum moon one though.

追いつけないままに　時が刻んで
私一人だけが　見えないようで
追いつけずにいるの　今もまだ
何もできないままいる

oi tsukenai mama ni toki ga kizande
watashi hitori dake ga mienai you de
oi tsukezu ni iru no ima mo mada
nani mo dekinai mama iru

Time ticks on as I’m unable to keep up
It feels as if I’m invisible, and me alone
I’m here unable to catch up, even now, still
Here unable to do anything

報いることさえ儚い夢なんだから
夢の中でしか　貴方を追い越せないけど
いつか越えてみせる　そう言い聞かせて
願いは今でも　叶わないままで

mukuiru koto sae hakanai yume nan dakara
yume no naka de shika anata o oi kosenai kedo
itsu ka koete miseru sou ii kikasete
negai wa ima demo kanawanai mama de

Rewards are just faint dreams after all
Only in my dreams can I surpass you
but “one day, I’ll show you,” so I say, warning you
as my wish still remains unfulfilled even now

追いこせないままじゃ　なにも変わらず
私のことなんか　誰も見てない
勇気すらないのよ　この私
手を伸ばしもがいたまま

oi kosenai mama ja nani mo kawarazu
watashi no koto nanka dare mo mitenai
yuuki sura nai no yo kono watashi
te o nobashi mogaita mama

Nothing will change if I never pass you
Nobody is paying any attention to me
I don’t even have the courage needed,
as I remained struggling, reaching out my hand

貴方の背中も　まだ見えていないから
夢の中でしか　強気に物も言えなくて
いつか越えてみたい　そう思いながら
私は今でも　変わらないままで

anata no senaka mo mada mieteinai kara
yume no naka de shika tsuyoki ni mono mo ienakute
itsu ka koete mitai sou omoinagara
watashi wa ima demo kawaranai mama de

I still can’t even see your back yet, so
I can only say things with confidence in my dreams
“Someday I want to try going beyond,” so I thought
while I still remain my same old self without a change
