Lyrics=
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
使い古した自分の名前にあえてキッチュなルビを振って 	tsukaifurushita jibun no namae ni aete kicchu na rubi o futte 	I daringly wield that kitsch rubiRubi (or ruby) characters are small texts in hiragana or katakana next to/above kanji characters that indicate the pronunciation of said kanji. I decided to use "rubi" as a spelling so readers won't confuse it with ruby (the gem) on my own worn-out name
高潔を打ち負かせるくらいに恐ろしくなる　骨の髄まで 	kouketsu o uchimakaseru kurai ni osoroshiku naru hone no zui made	I have become so terrifying down to my core that I could defeat nobility
今はどんなふうに見えてますか？　醜いですか？　それはそっか 	ima wa donna fuu ni mietemasu ka? minikui desu ka? sore wa sokka 	How do I look like now? Am I unsightly? Of course I am
どうか林檎を投げつけないで　胸にLock up　Lock up　ザムザ 	douka ringo o nagetsukenaide mune ni Lock up Lock up zamuza 	“I beg you, please don’t throw the apples at me.” They Lock up, Lock up to themselves– Samsa
 	 	
『ズキズキズキ』 	“zukizukizuki” 	"It throbs, throbs, throbs"
 	 	
「鏡をご覧」誰かが囁く　うまくいったら儲けものさ 	"kagami o goran" dareka ga sasayaku umaku ittara moukemono sa 	“Look at the mirror,” someone whispers; if it all works out, everybody wins
甘い言葉も笑顔も通じない　走り出したらもう獣だ 	amai kotoba mo egao mo tsuujinai hashiridashitara mou kemono da 	Neither sweet words nor a smile will work; if I start to run, I’ve become a beast
月の真下をうろつきながら考えてた　夜すがら 	tsuki no mashita o urotsuki nagara kangaeteta yosugara 	I’ve thought about it as I wandered around under the moon, all night long
悪夢にどの指立ててやるべきかってね 	akumu ni dono yubi tatete yarubeki ka tte ne 	"Which finger should I hold up to my nightmares?"
 	 	
ズキズキズキ　『ズキズキズキ』 	zukizukizuki “zukizukizuki” 	It throbs, throbs, throbs (I throb in pain)
ズキンズキンズキン　『ズキンズキン』 	zukin zukin zukin “zukin zukin” 	It aches, aches, aches (it aches, aches)
ズキズキズキ　『ズキズキズキ』 	zukizukizuki “zukizukizuki” 	It throbs, throbs, throbs (I throb in pain)
ズキ　ズキ　ズキン 	zuki zuki zukin 	It throbs, throbs, it aches
変われ 	kaware 	Change
 	 	
誰だって魂辛辛 	dare datte tamashii karagara 	Everyone barely escapes with their souls
ズキズキズキ 	zukizukizuki 	It throbs, throbs, throbs
痛みとを喰らったったらった 	itami to ranguraa o kurattattaratta 	Eaten away by all the pain and the wranglers–taratta
だのに何故だろう今も 	da no ni naze darou ima mo 	But even so, I wonder why it still
ズキズキズキって 	zukizukizuki tte 	throbs, throbs, throbs
派手な尻尾を引き摺りゆく 	hade na shippo o hikizuriyuku 	Dragging along their gaudy tail,

否定形の笑顔でも欲しくてニンゲン様なりきってる亡霊 	hiteikei no egao demo hoshikute ningensama narikitteru bourei 	The ghost that I am behaves like a human from wanting a smile, even if it's a negative one
自分の弱音に相槌ばかりだった 	jibun no yowane ni aizuchi bakari datta 	All I did was acknowledging my own whines
当然あなたとまともにケンカもできなかった 	touzen anata to matomo ni kenka mo dekinakatta 	Of course, I couldn’t even have a proper fight with you

Japanese 	Romaji 	English
使い古した自分の名前にあえてキッチュなルビを振って 	tsukaifurushita jibun no namae ni aete kicchu na rubi o futte 	I dare to bother writing this kitschy little furigana underneath my name, like I'm not using it past its expiration date
高潔を打ち負かせるくらいに恐ろしくなる　骨の髄まで 	kouketsu o uchimakaseru kurai ni osoroshiku naru hone no zui made	As I become a terrifying thing, so much so I'm robbed of any dignity I had
今はどんなふうに見えてますか？　醜いですか？　それはそっか 	ima wa donna fuu ni mietemasu ka? minikui desu ka? sore wa sokka 	How do I look today, hm? Oh my, you say 'ugly'? Yeah, I bet...
どうか林檎を投げつけないで　胸にLock up　Lock up　ザムザ 	douka ringo o nagetsukenaide mune ni Lock up Lock up zamuza 	Well please, even so don't throw apples at me... And so Samsa locks up what beats in his chest
 	 	
『ズキズキズキ』 	“zukizukizuki” 	(throb-throb-throb)
 	 	
「鏡をご覧」誰かが囁く　うまくいったら儲けものさ 	"kagami o goran" dareka ga sasayaku umaku ittara moukemono sa 	"Take a look in the mirror", I hear somebody whisper to me; for of course, my worth is dependent upon its results
甘い言葉も笑顔も通じない　走り出したらもう獣だ 	amai kotoba mo egao mo tsuujinai hashiridashitara mou kemono da 	Platitudes and smiles are pointless— the second they see me running, I've become a monster to them
月の真下をうろつきながら考えてた　夜すがら 	tsuki no mashita o urotsuki nagara kangaeteta yosugara 	I was up all night pacing neath the light of the moon
悪夢にどの指立ててやるべきかってね 	akumu ni dono yubi tatete yarubeki ka tte ne 	Thinking about it— how exactly should I grasp such a nightmare?more literally “what finger should i point at this nightmare, huh…?” my interpretation is it’s supposed to evoke a similar meaning to “who should i blame/point a finger at? what must my hands do? how do i cope with this nightmare?” hence my translation.

ズキズキズキ 	zukizukizuki 	Like throb-throb-throb
痛みとを喰らったったらった 	itami to ranguraa o kurattattaratta 	Wranglers (the scowling ones) are taken care of just like it's pain— eaten and left to rot-ta-ta-ra-ta
だのに何故だろう今も 	da no ni naze darou ima mo 	And yet even now, it hasn't gone away,
ズキズキズキって 	zukizukizuki tte 	This throb-throb-throbbing
派手な尻尾を引き摺りゆく 	hade na shippo o hikizuriyuku 	Dragging your glittering tail along like a dress,not much to add here (again) except that 引き摺る being used… like dragging a long tail along the floor, might also evoke the imagery of a (gaudy/glittering) long dress’ tail running along the floor (引きずり = tail of a dress). the use of fantasy to describe reality etc
ザザザザ　ザムザ 	zazazaza zamuza 	Sa-Sa-Sa-Sa-Samsa

「ごめんね。ちっとも上手に生きてあげられなくて」と伝えて 	"gomen ne. chittomo jouzu ni ikite agerarenakute" to tsutaete 	"I'm so sorry I failed at being alive the right way",
否定形の笑顔でも欲しくてニンゲン様なりきってる亡霊 	hiteikei no egao demo hoshikute ningensama narikitteru bourei 	so says the dead soul taking on the form of a "human"— grasping for any smile, even a fake one否定形 means “negative form”, as in the dictionary negative form for any given word. this gives off a clinical feeling to me. not simply a gloomy or a pessimistic one, but a smile which is a negation of itself. a smile fake and uncanny, hence my translation.
自分の弱音に相槌ばかりだった 	jibun no yowane ni aizuchi bakari datta 	Yet all that comes in response to my feeble complaints are empty "Mhm"s and "Okay"
当然あなたとまともにケンカもできなかった 	touzen anata to matomo ni kenka mo dekinakatta 	Of course... Not as though I'm capable of fighting you, on such unequal ground
