でも心についた汚れだけどうしてもとれない 	demo kokoro ni tsuita yogore dake doushite mo torenai	But I can’t remove the filth that clung to my heart alone by any means.
 	 	
性格悪い　協調性がない　頭悪い 	seikaku warui kyouchousei ga nai atamawarui 	I have a bad personality. I have no cooperative spirit. I’m slow in the head.
面白くない　ずっと一人でいる　汚れてる 	omoshirokunai zutto hitori de iru yogoreteru 	I’m not interesting. I’ll always be alone, getting filthier.
はよ死んで欲しい　はよ死んで欲しい 	hayo shinde hoshii hayo shinde hoshii 	I wanna die soon. I wanna die soon.
死んで欲しい 	shinde hoshii 	I wanna die.
はよ死んで欲しい　はよ死んで欲しい 	hayo shinde hoshii hayo shinde hoshii 	I wanna die soon. I wanna die soon.
死んで欲しい 	shinde hoshii 	I wanna die."
 	 	
それでも僕は学校へ行きました 	soredemo boku wa gakkou e ikimashita 	Nevertheless, I went to school.
毎日居場所のないところへと 	mainichi ibasho no nai tokoro e to 	Every day, I went to a place with nowhere for me to be.

僕の心を代弁してくれるような 	boku no kokoro o daiben shite kureru you na 	It was like they were speaking on behalf of my heart.
その歌詞を崇めるかのように信じました 	sono kashi o agameru ka no you ni shinjimashita 	I believed in them as if worshipping their lyrics.
 	 	
初めてその時僕はこう思いました 	hajimete sono toki boku wa kou omoimashita 	For the first time back then, I had been thinking this way:
僕も曲を作って人に崇められたい 	boku mo kyoku o tsukutte hito ni agameraretai 	“I want to make songs and be worshipped by people too!
僕と同じ弱者を守れる盾を作りたい 	boku to onaji jakusha o mamoreru tate o tsukuritai 	I want to make a shield that will protect weaklings who are like me!”
初めて僕の心に炎が灯ったのです 	hajimete boku no kokoro ni honoo ga tomotta no desu 	Because for the first time, a flame had been lit in my heart.
 	 	
曲を作ってく　発表する　聞かれない 	kyoku o tsukutteku happyou suru kikarenai 	“I’m making songs and publishing them. They aren’t listened to.
もっと作る　あいつが売れていく　嫉妬する 	motto tsukuru aitsu ga urete iku shitto suru 	I make more. Those guys are selling well. I feel envious.
格の違い　才能不在 	kaku no chigai sainou fuzai 	Our statuses differ because of my absence of talent

能力皆無のピエロだろ 	nouryoku kaimu no piero daro 	...I’m a clown with nonexistent ability, aren’t I?”
 	 	
ねぇ 	nee 	Listen up.
 	 	
生きてれば必ずいいことあると 	ikitereba kanarazu ii koto aru to 	“‘If I’m living, there will be good things without fail.’
それだけ信じてやって鳴かず飛ばず 	sore dake shinjite yatte nakazu tobazu 	I believe in that alone while living in obscurity.
あのバンドも同じことしか云わない 	ano bando mo onaji koto shika iwanai 	I don’t do anything but parrot what that band says.
なんかいろいろめんどくさいな 	nanka iroiro mendokusai na 	Someone like me is bothersome in all sorts of ways, huh.”
 	 	
電車を待ってた時ふと考えた 	densha o matteta toki futo kangaeta 	While I was waiting for the train, I suddenly thought,
飛び込めば全部終わるのになって 	tobikomeba zenbu owaru no ni na tte 	“If only I were to jump onto the tracks, everything would end!”
ちょっとだけふらっと足滑らせた 	chotto dake furatto ashi suberaseta 	Just for a moment, I accidentally lost my footing
そのはずみで前の人押した 	sono hazumi de mae no hito oshita 	And pushed the person in front of me on impulse.

母さんが聞いたことない声で泣いた 	kaa-san ga kiita koto nai koe de naita 	My mom cried in a voice that no one heard.
僕の人生はなんだったのかな 	boku no jinsei wa nan datta no kana 	I wonder what my life was even for.
 	 	
ねぇ　こんなにも 	nee konna ni mo 	Hey, I was living
幸せを願って生きてきたの 	shiawase o negatte ikite kita no 	Wishing for happiness in this way,
でも一つも楽しくなかったよ 	demo hitotsu mo tanoshikunakatta yo 	But I didn’t enjoy a single thing.

僕はどうすればいい？ 	boku wa dou sureba ii? 	What should I do?

十分だというものです　あははは 	juubun da to iu mono desu ahahaha 	This is what they call “ready”. Ahahaha.
それではみなさんさよならです 	sore de wa minna-san sayonara desu 	With that, I bid you all goodbye.
