リストカッター (Wrist Cutter)

==Lyrics==
Japanese 	Romaji 	English
生きようとも　この世界で 	ikiyou to mo kono sekai de 	Even if I live, in this world,
優しさという刃物なく 	yasashisa to iu hamono naku 	Without blades called "kindness,"刃物 (hamono) is literally an edged tool, or cutlery, or a cutter. Used blade because it seemed to encapsulate all the definitions. Might be referring to a razor, given the song subject.
恐怖という包帯で隠す 	kyoufu to iu houtai de kakusu 	I hide behind bandages called "fear."
 	 	
足掻こうにも　光などは 	agakou ni mo hikari nado wa 	Even if you want to struggle, things like light
沈んでく希望に絶望に 	shizundeku kibou ni zetsubou ni 	Sink into hope, and without hesitating
躊躇わず影を落とす 	tamerawazu kage o otosu 	From despair, cast a shadow
 	 	
捕らわれたのは悲劇の主人公じゃない 	torawareta no wa higeki no shujinkou ja nai	What's trapped is not the tragic hero
誰が向ける？　その目を　その足を 	dare ga mukeru? sono me o sono ashi o 	Who turns towards those eyes and those feet?
 	 	
何も知らない君に捧ぐ 	nani mo shiranai kimi ni sasagu 	I dedicate this to you, who knows nothing.There’s actually no word “this” that the person is dedicated - there is no object at all for the word dedicate. We assumed it would be the song itself, although possibly it is referring to the lines that come after.
これから歩みだすこの地は 	kore kara ayumidasu kono chi wa 	The earth that I walk from now on has, up until now—
幾億年繰り返し何度も 	ikuokunen kurikaeshi nando mo 	For many hundreds of millions of years, repeatedly, again and again—
出会い別れ紡んできた 	deai wakare tsumugun dekita 	Spun a tale of meetings and partings.
 	 	
「ようこそ」君へ囁く世界は 	"youkoso" kimi e sasayaku sekai wa 	The world which whispered "Welcome" to you
何も求めてはいないけど 	nani mo motomete wa inai kedo 	Seeks nothing, but
美しさで汚れてゆけ 	utsukushisa de yogorete yuke 	Corrupt it with beauty.
きっと明日は優しい君よ 	kitto ashita wa yasashii kimi yo 	Surely tomorrow you'll be kind.
 	 	
悲しいとも過ぎる日々は 	kanashii to mo sugiru hibi wa 	Even the sad passing days
でふらつく足跡で作る 	mabuta de furatsuku ashiato de tsukuru 	Create, with dizzy, staggering footprints
世界地図は何も語らぬ 	sekai chizu wa nani mo kataranu 	A map of the world which says nothing.
 	 	
悲しいかな消える日々は 	kanashii kana kieru hibi wa 	How sad, the disappearing days,
暗闇を抜けた先にあるもまた 	kurayami o nuketa saki ni aru mo mata 	Once they have escaped past the darkness,
照らされることない道でも 	terasareru koto nai michi demo 	Still form an unlit path.
 	 	
見つけたものは砂の花びらじゃない 	mitsuketa mono wa suna no hanabira ja nai 	What was found is not a petal of sand
何が出来る？　愛だらけのその手で 	nani ga dekiru? ai darake no sono te de 	What can be done, with that hand full of love?
 	 	
歩み終わりゆく君に捧ぐ 	ayumi owari yuku kimi ni sasagu 	I dedicate this to you, who has stopped walking.
そこから見た景色全て 	soko kara mita keshiki subete 	Everything that I saw from then on,
裏切り憎しみで塗りつぶすなら 	uragiri nikushimi de nuritsubusu nara 	If it was painted in betrayal and hatred,
名画は何を呼びかける？ 	meiga wa nani o yobikakeru? 	Then what do you call this masterpiece?
 	 	
「さよなら」君へ呟く世界は 	"sayonara" kimi e tsubuyaku sekai wa 	The world which whispers “Goodbye” to you,
たくさん手にしすぎたけれど 	takusan te ni shisugita keredo 	Has already taken far too much, but
そのたび増える痛みと眠れ 	sono tabi fueru itami to nemure 	This time, sleep, with multiplying pains,
きっと今だけ悲しい君よ 	kitto ima dake kanashii kimi yo 	Surely you’re only sad for now.
 	 	
夜明けがくる　夜明けが 	yoake ga kuru yoake ga 	The dawn comes, the dawn
始まってく命が問う 	hajimatteku inochi ga tou 	The beginning life asks
何残す？何生きる？ 	nani nokosu? nani ikiru? 	What will you leave behind? What is living?
引け　弾け　奏でてゆけ君を 	hike hike kanadete yuke kimi o 	Pull across, play, perform yourself引け(pull) and 弾け(play) are pronounced the same (hike) - this is a pun. 引け is literally to pull - I translated it pull across because we thought it was referring to cutting yourself across the wrist.
 	 	
沈み光り生く君に捧ぐ 	shizumi hikari iku kimi ni sasagu 	I dedicate this to you—sinking, bright, living
立ち止まり見上げた御空は 	tachidomari miageta mi sora wa 	The sky I stopped to look up at
あまりに大きく誰も照らさず 	amari ni ookiku dare mo terasazu 	Doesn’t shine a lot on anyone
君の目玉は何処へゆく 	kimi no medama wa doko e yuku 	Where are your eyeballs going?
 	 	
「おやすみ」君に輝く世界は 	"oyasumi" kimi ni kagayaku sekai wa 	“Goodnight.” The glittering world,If it’s unclear, we think that here the singer talks to the world, telling it goodnight, in contrast to the other verses.
何も見せてはくれないだろう 	nani mo misete wa kurenai darou 	Seems like it’ll show you nothing.
だから手を伸ばすんだろう 	dakara te o nobasun darou 	So you’ll reach out your hand, won’t you?
きっと明日は確かな君よ 	kitto ashita wa tashika na kimi yo 	Surely tomorrow you’ll be certain.
 	 	
全て知った君に捧ぐ 	subete shitta kimi ni sasagu 	I dedicate this to you, who knows everything
夜は誰も愛さないけど 	yoru wa dare mo aisanai kedo 	The night loves no one, but
流れる其れ信じて生け 	nagareru sore shinjite ike 	Live, believing in that which flows
きっと明日は優しい君よ 	kitto ashita wa yasashii kimi yo 	Surely tomorrow you’ll be kind.
