ヘッドフォンアクター (Headphone Actor)

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
その日は随分と平凡で 	sono hi wa zuibun to heibon de 	It was an extremely average day,
当たり障りない一日だった 	atarisawari nai ichinichi datta 	Without a single obstacle in my path
暇つぶしに聞いてたラジオから 	himatsubushi ni kiiteta rajio kara 	Until I was bored, listening to the radio,
あの話が流れだすまでは 	ano hanashi ga nagaredasu made wa 	And I heard this said:
 	 	
非常に残念なことですが 	hijou ni zannen na koto desu ga 	"It's very unfortunate I have to say this,
本日地球は終わります　と 	honjitsu chikyuu wa owarimasu to 	But the world is going to end today"
どこかの国の大統領が 	dokoka no kuni no daitouryou ga 	So said some country's president,
泣きながら話をするまでは 	nakinagara hanashi o suru made wa 	In tears as he spoke...
 	 	
窓の外は大きな鳥たちが 	mado no soto wa ookina toritachi ga 	Out the window was a huge flock of birds,
空覆い尽くしてく渋滞中 	sora ooitsukushiteku juutaichuu 	Congesting to cover up the sky
三日月を飲み込んで 	mikazuki o nomikonde 	Swallowing up the crescent moon,
どこかへと向かってる 	dokoka e to mukatteru 	Headed some unknown direction...
 	 	
やりかけてたゲームはノーセーブ 	yarikaketeta geemu wa noo seebu 	I had a half-finished game with no save;
机にほぼ手付かず参考書 	tsukue ni hobo tetsukazu sankousho 	A scarcely-touched textbook lay on my desk
震える身体をいなすように 	furueru karada o inasu you ni 	And to stop my body from trembling,
すぐにヘッドフォンをした 	sugu ni heddofon o shita 	I promptly put on my headphones
 	 	
不明なアーティスト項目の 	fumei na atisuto koumoku no 	Just as I was listening to an obscure artist,
タイトル不明のナンバーが 	taitoru fumei no nanbaa ga 	A number they did with an unknown title,
途端に耳元流れだした 	totan ni mimimoto nagaredashita 	Just as it came to my ears, I heard:
「生き残りたいでしょう？」 	"ikinokoritai deshou?" 	"You want to survive, yes?"
 	 	
蠢きだす世界会場を 	ugomekidasu sekai kaijou o 	Waving over the wriggling world,
波打つように揺れる摩天楼 	namiutsu you ni yureru matenrou 	The skyscrapers seemed to tremble
紛れもないこの声はどう聞いても 	magire mo nai kono koe wa dou kiite mo 	This voice seemed unmistakable:
聞き飽きた自分の声だ 	kikiakita jibun no koe da 	It was my own, which I tired of hearing
 	 	
「あの丘を越えたら20秒で 	"ano oka o koetara nijuubyou de 	"If you cross that hill, then in 20 seconds,
その意味を嫌でも知ることになるよ 	sono imi o iya demo shiru koto ni naru yo 	You'll know what I mean, for better or worse
疑わないで耳を澄ませたら　20秒先へ」 	utagawanaide mimi o sumasetara nijuubyou saki e"	Don't doubt, just listen close - go 20 seconds ahead..."
 	 	
交差点は当然大渋滞 	kousaten wa touzen daijuutai 	The intersection was crowded, of course;
もう老若男女は関係ない 	mou rounyakunannyo wa kankei nai 	Man, woman, child, it didn't matter
怒号やら赤ん坊の泣き声で埋まってく 	dogou yara akanbou no nakigoe de umatteku 	I was buried under people yelling and babies' cries
 	 	
暴れだす人　泣き出す少女 	abaredasu hito nakidasu shoujo 	Rioting people, a sobbing girl,
祈りだした神父を追い抜いて 	inoridashita shinpu o oinuite 	A priest praying, I passed them all by
ただ1人目指すのは逆方向 	tada hitori mezasu no wa gyakuhoukou 	One single person headed the other way,
あの丘の向こうへと 	ano oka no mukou e to 	Toward what was beyond that hill...
 	 	
ヘッドフォンから依然声がして 	heddofon kara izen koe ga shite 	The voice from the headphones persisted:
「あと12分だよ」と告げる 	"ato juunifun da yo" to tsugeru 	"Twelve minutes left," it told me
このまま全て消え去ってしまうなら 	kono mama subete kiesatte shimau nara 	If everything was going to up and vanish,
もう術は無いだろう 	mou sube wa nai darou 	Then I had no other way...
 	 	
ざわめき出す悲鳴合唱を 	zawamekidasu himei gasshou o 	The chorus of shrieks and screams
涙目になってかすめる10秒 	namidame ni natte kasumeru juubyou 	Turned to tearful eyes in ten seconds
疑いたいけど誰がどうやっても 	utagaitai kedo dareka ga dou yatte mo 	I had my doubts, but no matter who did what,
終わらない　人類賛歌 	owaranai jinrui sanka 	There was no ending humanity's song
 	 	
「駆け抜けろ、もう残り1分だ」 	"kakenukero, mou nokori ippun da" 	"Run, run, there's one minute left,"
その言葉ももう聞こえない位に 	sono kotoba mo mou kikoenai kurai ni 	But I couldn't even hear it by then;
ただ目指していた丘の向こうは 	tada mezashite ita oka no mukou wa 	The hill which I sought to cross
すぐ目の前に 	sugu me no mae ni 	Was right before me...
 	 	
息も絶え絶えたどり着いたんだ 	iki mo taedae tadoritsuita nda 	My breath faint, I finally arrived
空を映し出す壁の前に 	sora o utsushidasu kabe no mae ni 	Before a wall which projected the sky
その向こう白衣の科学者たちは 	sono mukou hakui no kagakushatachi wa 	Behind it, scientists in white applauded;
「素晴らしい」と手を打った 	"subarashii" to te o utta 	"Magnificent," they said -
疑うよ 	utagau yo 	Doubt...
 	 	
そこから見る街の風景は 	soko kara miru machi no fuukei wa 	From there, I saw the town
まるで実験施設のようでさ 	marude jikken shisetsu no you de sa 	Was some kind of experimental facility;
「もう不必要だ」 	"mou fuhitsuyou da" 	"No longer necessary,"
科学者は片手間に爆弾を投げた 	kagakusha wa katatema ni bakudan o nageta 	A scientist said, and calmly tossed a bomb
 	 	
箱の中の小さな世界で 	hako no naka no chiisana sekai de 	I was told I had been living
今までずっと生きてきたんだなと 	ima made zutto ikite kita nda na to 	My whole life in a little world in a box
燃え尽きていく街だったモノを 	moetsukite iku machi datta mono o 	So I could only stare, dumbfounded
ただ、呆然と見る耳元で 	tada, bouzen to miru mimimoto de 	At the burnt wreckage that had been the town
ヘッドフォンの向こうから 	heddofon no mukou kara 	And from the headphones at my ear,
「ごめんね」と声がした 	"gomen ne" to koe ga shita 	I heard a faint "sorry"...
