路地裏猫の正体 (Rojiura Neko no Shoutai)

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
路地裏猫の正体を　そっと君に渡したいのさ 	rojiura neko no shoutai o sotto kimi ni watashitai no sa 	A back alley cat's identity is what I want to quietly give to you
 	 	
君が消えたあの日に　私　人じゃなくなっていた 	kimi ga kieta ano hi ni watashi hito ja naku natte ita 	On the day that you disappeared, I just wasn’t myself anymoreThis line seems to literally say “I wasn’t human anymore” or that “I stopped being human”. 人(hito), the word for ‘person’ can also mean character, or personality however. Even though 自分(jibun, oneself) isn’t said here, I figured this is what it meant.
誰の声も届かない　それは　わかりきったことだった 	dare no koe mo todokanai sore wa wakarikitta koto datta 	Nobody's voice could reach you, that alone was obvious
 	 	
月夜に染み込んでいくような　優しさがあった 	tsukiyo ni shimikonde iku you na yasashisa ga atta 	Your kindness seemed to completely fill the moonlit night
 	 	
昨日のことはポケットにしまい　零れないように歩いた 	kinou no koto wa poketto ni shimai koborenai you ni aruita 	Clutching yesterday in my pocket, so it wouldn’t escape as I walked,
夜を手に入れてしまいそうな 	yoru o te ni irete shimaisou na 	It seems as if I’m holding onto the night as well
観覧車から未完成の　大きな街見下ろして 	kanransha kara mikansei no ookina machi mioroshite 	From the ferris wheel I looked down upon the large, unfinished city
 	 	
この世界に君がいる　なんかもうそれだけで構わないんだ 	kono sekai ni kimi ga iru nanka mou sore dake de kamawanai nda 	This is the world you live in; anything more than that doesn’t really matter
路地裏猫の正体を　そっと君に渡したいのさ 	rojiura neko no shoutai o sotto kimi ni watashitai no sa 	A back alley cat's identity is what I want to quietly give to you
 	 	
こんな私に出来ること　今はまだちょっとわからないけど 	konna watashi ni dekiru koto ima wa mada chotto wakaranai kedo 	Even now, I still don’t know what someone like me can do, but
君が死んでしまう日まで　隣にいさせて欲しいんだ 	kimi ga shinde shimau hi made tonari ni isasete hoshii nda 	Until the day you die, please let me stay by your side
 	 	
君が消えたあの日は　いつか　思い出になっていたのか 	kimi ga kieta ano hi wa itsuka omoide ni natte ita no ka 	The day you disappeared, will it become just a memory one day?
余計なことと隠した　それはとても大事なことでさ 	yokei na koto to kakushita sore wa totemo daiji na koto de sa 	A very precious memory, hidden amongst all the other unnecessary ones
 	 	
消したくても消せない感情と　油性の恋だ 	keshitakute mo kesenai kanjou to yusei no koi da 	Even if I want to erase these feelings and this permanent love, I can’t油性 (yusei) is a word that means 'oil-based', used in words like 油性ぺん(yuseipen) permanent marker. The line is describing the singer’s infatuation with 油性の恋(yusei no koi, literally oil-based love), but what’s meant is just a permanent type of ‘koi’.
 	 	
ひとりぼっちに怯えて　君と星のない街を歩いた 	hitoribocchi ni obiete kimi to hoshi no nai machi o aruita 	Scared of being alone, I walked with you down the starless alleyway
「私の事は忘れていいよ」 	"watashi no koto wa wasurete ii yo" 	"It's okay if you forget about me."
そうやってまた　ひとりになって　傷付かない様に目を塞いで 	sou yatte mata hitori ni natte kizutsukanai you ni me o fusaide	And once again, I was alone. Acting as if I wasn’t hurt, I held back my tears
 	 	
どうやって話せばいい？　弱虫の手が震える 	dou yatte hanaseba ii? yowamushi no te ga furueru 	How should I say it now? My cowardly hand is shaking
思い出の数だけの君に会った　ひとりぼっちに雨が降る 	omoide no kazu dake no kimi ni atta hitoribocchi ni ame ga furu	I remembered all the times we met, as the rain falls upon my loneliness
 	 	
この世界に君がいる　なんかもうそれだけじゃつまらないんだ 	Kkno sekai ni kimi ga iru nanka mou sore dake ja tsumaranai nda	This is the world you live in; knowing only that just isn’t enoughThe verb ‘to know’ (知る, shiru), isn’t explicitly stated in this sentence.
言葉に出来ないけれど　路地裏で恋をするんだよ 	kotoba ni dekinai keredo rojiura de koi o suru nda yo 	I can’t quite put into words how I’m falling in love with you in the back alleys
 	 	
こんな私に出来ること　今はまだちょっとわからないけど 	konna watashi ni dekiru koto ima wa mada chotto wakaranai kedo 	Even now, I still don’t know what someone like me can do, but
君が死んでしまう日まで　隣にいさせて欲しいんだ 	kimi ga shinde shimau hi made tonari ni isasete hoshii nda 	Until the day you die, please let me stay by your side
