ダンサーインザダーク [Dancer in the Dark] [English translation]

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My left arm has been blown off and my wings have been torn off

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My right arm is full of scars and I’ve devoted everything

Why am I here? In this dull, stagnant world

The pain from these ridiculous scars1 continues to torment me all the time

I keep engraving the things I lost, going numb because of these feelings

I keep counting all the things I have given up, repeating those questions

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My left arm has been blown off and my wings have been torn off

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My right arm is full of scars and I’ve devoted everything

Why am I fighting? In this fragile, rickety world

The twinge from these unpleasant scars continues to torment me all the time

I keep noticing all the things I abandoned, dying inside because of these feelings

I keep counting all these things that I have destroyed, repeating those questions

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My left arm has been blown off and my wings have been torn off

I keep on fighting against God in such a dirty, cruel place

My right arm is full of scars and I’ve devoted everything
