ブラックゴールド (Black Gold)/otetsu

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
どちらに進むか決めなさいと 	dochira ni susumu ka kimenasai to 	When I am asked to decide which way to go,
問われ嘘をついた 	toware uso o tsuita 	I blurt out a lie.
右を示してくれた人は 	migi o shimeshite kureta hito wa 	The people who told me to go right
左側へ行った 	hidarigawa e itta 	ended up going to the left.
 	 	
が出来るように 	iki ga dekiru you ni 	In order to breathe,
生きてけるように 	ikitekeru you ni 	in order to live
そう言って 	sou itte 	That was what you said
 	 	
言葉にするのは 	kotoba ni suru no wa 	Having to put it into words
苦しかっただろう 	kurushikatta darou 	must have been painful.
傷だらけになったままで 	kizu darake ni natta mama de 	As I became covered in wounds,
笑っていた 	waratte ita 	You laughed.
 	 	
離れ離れになる事 	hanarebanare ni naru koto 	Scared of the things that could separate us,
恐れ逃げて目を逸らした 	osorete nigete me o sorashita 	I averted my gaze and ran away
足を止め、見え隠れする 	ashi o tome miekakure suru 	I stop in my tracks, my vision flickering
犠牲・代償　何の覚悟もない 	gisei daishou nan no kakugo mo nai 	I am not prepared to be, or repay the victimNot quite sure what the little 'dot' means between 犠牲 and 代償。Here I just assumed these two were connected to one another grammatically and in context.

言葉にするのは 	kotoba ni suru no wa 	Having to put it into words
苦しかっただろう 	kurushikatta darou 	must have been painful.
願っているのも 	negatte iru no mo 	Even wishing
苦しかっただろう 	kurushikatta darou 	must have been painful as well.
傷だらけになったままで 	kizu darake ni natta mama de 	As I became covered in wounds,
笑っていた 	waratte ita 	You laughed.
 	 	
離れ離れになる事 	hanarebanare ni naru koto 	I'm so, so scared of being separated,
怖い　怖い　側に居たい、と 	kowai kowai soba ni itai to 	I just want to be by your side
 	 	
足を止め、見え隠れする 	ashi o tome, miekakure suru 	I stop in my tracks, my vision flickering
犠牲・代償　何の覚悟もない 	gisei daishou nan no kakugo mo nai 	I am not prepared to be, or repay the victim
 	 	
何が真実だとか 	nani ga shinjitsu da toka 	So, what is the 'truth'?
冷たい金属だとか 	tsumetai kinzoku da toka 	Is it cold, hard metal?
見てよ、ほら見て歩いてる 	mite yo, hora mite aruiteru 	Look, look at me walking!
後ろ向いて歩いてる 	ushiro muite aruiteru 	Walking away from you!
誰がいつ決めたのか 	dare ga itsu kimeta no ka 	So who was the one that made the decision?
神様は何処に居るんですか 	kamisama wa doko ni iru ndesu ka 	Just where is our God?
埋まらない　埋まらない 	umaranai, umaranai 	Ah, how unfulfilling!
 	 	
離れ離れ遠く離れ 	hanarebanare tooku hanare 	Separating from you, I go far, far away
左側へ行った人へ 	hidarigawa e itta hito e 	To the people who went left
最後にくれた優しさ、ここに残す 	saigo ni kureta yasashisa, koko ni nokosu	I'll leave your last act of kindness right here
色褪せないように 	iroasenai you ni 	So it won't lose it's brilliance
 	 	
離れ離れになる事 	hanarebanare ni naru koto 	What drives people apart
犠牲・代償、その覚悟 	gisei daishou sono kakugo 	Is that resolve for victims and their compensationUnsure if the その覚悟 part connects with the next sentence cluster, and can't tell if the intonation is necessarily going down to indicate the end of a sentence. I decided to translate these sentences as such as to avoid a very lengthy English explanation.
首から下げた愛情と 	kubi kara sageta aijou to 	I grasped the love dangling from my neck
ブラックゴールドのリング握って 	burakku goorudo no ringu nigitte 	and a black gold ring
足跡消えないように 	ashiato kienai you ni 	So my footprints won't disappearHere I assume that the singer is verifying her existence/her failed relationship. She grasps the 'love' and the Black gold ring in order to leave her 'mark'. May possibly be referring to the existence of her ex, but I decided to translate this portion in first person.
