悲劇のマッチョマン (Higeki no Macho Man) – The tragic Macho Man

from Higeki no Macho Man single.

——

Anticipating something out of the extension of these days of fighting, always waiting
Upon the battlefield of repeating days, we ingest protein and put up a resistance
In this unrealistic state, we’re dyed a subliminal black
Getting hurt again and again, superhuman recovery, our hearts are like a macho man’s now

Instant hero
Instant realism

Having grown stronger, unable to realize
That our happiness lies in the joy we have right here and now
We grow numb, our lost emotions a tragedy

Thinking of what to do tomorrow, there’s really nothing that interesting…
Teeming with entertainment, knock it all down, macho man

Instant funny
Instant fantasy

Now, just desiring a future
Far more stimulating than ever, our lost emotions
Where have they gone? This indifferent feeling is a tragedy

Oh! Yeah!! Can’t reach your heart. Oh! Yeah!! Fading sympathy
Oh! Yeah!! The emotion that you had. Oh! Yeah!! Can’t feel it now…
Oh! Yeah!! Your steel-like heart. Oh! Yeah!! Forged from stubborn training
Oh! Yeah!! Can’t be easily. Oh! Yeah!! Penetrated now…

Having grown stronger, can’t even see
That our happiness lies in the joy we have right here and now

Now, just desiring a future
Far more stimulating than ever, our lost emotions
Where have they gone? This indifferent feeling is a tragedy

Don’t want to forget, this miracle of love right here

抹殺ロック (Massatsu rokku) – Erasure Rock

from Tenjou rakuen album.

——

How many losses as it been? Fragmented SHADOW
Theories of idealism lurking within the curriculum
Feeling doubts about what has been assigned
What you’ve lost is your identity

Even when you’ve always been told that it’s your fault

Dancing NOISE, you strummed out the sound
The words riding on the sound are so dazzling
You hurl abuse at heartless disasters
Decorated illusions, justice has lost its meaning, right?

Shouting out your standard phrase with pride
Theories of hope do not exist within the curriculum
Puffed up with pride from things with certainty
You’ve lost your identity

A hero opening up a path towards the future he’s always wished for
Surely you’re like that too, your ruthless heart rocking on

Dancing NOISE, you strummed out the sound
The words riding on the sound are so dazzling
You hurl abuse at heartless disasters
Decorated illusions, justice has lost its meaning, right?

If there is a too-perfect vision of the future, everyone will simply
Accept that as the default best answer. Are you satisfied with that?
Would you wait for it nervously? That time when you first knew pain
Is a chance for you to notice your true feelings. So what will you do?

Strum it out, an answer for me…

Echoing in the back of my chest now, all sounds become one, no lies
You hurled abuse again and again at the present condition of human nature
Peerless rock that you extol, always repeating on and on

TVいーじー (TV Iijii) – TV Easy

from Tempra single.

——

Indecipherable conjectures with choices of ○ or × for the answer
Deliberately choosing ×, but is that in fact the best choice?

That decorated synopsis made my heart dance
There’s no need, reality is…a tedious day-to-day existence

A lyrical and sentimental blue, that’s the utopia we saw
Appearing and disappearing, the frequency changes within the insolent trap, unraveled threads of abstract theory filled with sadness

A planned and harmonious fixed game, mum sits in a disorderly living room
Deliberately turning a blind eye, but is that in fact the best choice?

Unable to understand, my pure heart was flustered
Maybe there’s no need, reality is…a tedious day-to-day existence

A logical and hard-to-derive reason, that’s the dystopia we know
With no stops, we remain lost in the maze, the illusions we imagined filled with sorrow

A Direction prepared by a sunny day’s thunder
I pretended not to see, but somehow, I embrace
My heart’s pain…won’t forget

A lyrical and sentimental blue, that’s the utopia we saw
Appearing and disappearing, the frequency changes within the insolent trap

A logical and hard-to-derive reason, that’s the dystopia we know
With no stops, we remain lost in the maze, the illusions we imagined filled with sorrow
