So, this song is one of my favorites... it's originally in Japanese and I have never been able to record a version I was happy with.
So I made like a good weeaboo and made a singable translation. The original lyrics and literal translation are here and my lyrics follow.
I used the official instrumental track from the Gekkou single. I believe the copyright to the original recording by Ms. Onitsuka is retained by Toshiba EMI.
* I am God's child
Set upon this world, struggling it seems it's too much
For a single girl
How do I live on such a field?
What is it I'm searching for?
Only the reason I was born...
One day I was walking and
I came upon a wind
It seemed that I could fall at
Any moment
But the chains around my neck, they
They kept me standing tall
Giving up my heart to you
Now it seems
That my feelings for you have shattered
All over everything
And it's just that I don't know
How to pick them up again
* Repeat
Tell me 'bout the reasons for the little things you do
Until I fall asleep laying here with you
Even though I'm wrapped up in your gauze,
It doesn't heal me
Here there is no light, no sound
What should I believe in?
**I am God's child
Your words scar my back
Filling my heart with shadows dark and black
I can't hang out this world
All I know now is this:
There's no reason for me to exist
I throw myself at this wall
But it's so cold
Another obstacle that I must face
Don't try to help me, don't reach your hand out
How the hell could you ever save me
From this
Silence
Time will not
Heal
This wound
* Repeat
** Repeat
How do I live on such a field?
