思想犯 [Shisōhan] [English translation]

Treating others with kindness, you wouldn't understand my feelings

It's because it feels good to curse others that I write songs

I dreamt of seeing my name appearing on the morning news one day

For that, I've been sharpening my knife

The sound of smashed glass, and the tearing of some paper

The setting sun after goodbyes appears especially beautiful, you should understand that

The sound of crows echoes under the setting sun

This loneliness now turns into sound

Dusk shines across a distant scenery of the past

You stood on tiptoe, along the burning afterglow, as the word "goodbye" slips from your mouth

Wanting to be accepted, wanting to be loved

Are these what you call "dreams"?

Even if I do nothing, make my dreams come true

Quickly, please fulfil my empty self

Treating others with kindness, this world wouldn't understand my jealousy

I'm constantly searching for a chance to thrash someone

The street lamps hit by a beer bottle, the breaking sound of a guitar thrown away

All the regrets I can't return to appear especially beautiful

This kind of stuff, even I understand that

Showering in a rain of criticism

As I start feeling nostalgic for autumn, winter creeps in

Another tower of smoke rises behind a mountain during spring

The summer wind brushes by my cheek

Treating others with kindness, you wouldn't understand my loneliness

It's because I don't want to die, nor want to keep living, that I write songs

Whether it's disparagement, disappointment, disgust, I'll think of them as results of interest towards me

So I keep writing songs that hurt people

Writing this kind of song that's empty inside

I want to accept what you've said

Accepting it with these hands of mine that hold nothing

I'll keep waiting for the day that my throat will be quenched

The sound of crows echoes under the setting sun

My loneliness, I'll turn it into song right now

Goodbye, dawn bids you farewell

Right now, I quietly wait for night to come

The words "see you tomorrow" slip from my mouth
