Koutei Camera Girl - Dance with Mr.loneliness Lyrics Translation

The colors of these streets change with the four seasons
Through the eye of the lens I'm smiling again, cheese!
Cutting and pasting, I collected my faces together
I felt every kind of regret without reservation
Let go, you've got to forget it all
Even that dream, tearing into your bicycle
Throw out the ideas of tomorrow morning you've written for yourself
But I'm not sure if that's really ok
Tonight my ordinary words coil into a vortex overflowing
I mean, wishing I could understand...
Something about that's still wrong.

There wasn't any meaning to begin with, was there?
Let's dance!

Let's dance with Mr. Loneliness
We're at the end of the world
It felt like it was going to break, it was worthless
Let's dance, Mr. Loneliness
We'll create the dance floor
It doesn't matter where as long as we're dancing

I've been dreaming again, can't believe I remembered
I've gotten good at putting on these acts, smoke and mirrors
I know this isn't related, but I'm not sure about the future
I mean, even if I have ideals, they could change at any moment
Let go, your sleep-talk isn't nonsense
In the end your bicycle's rolling
Who's the person behind the shutter who can't smile?
I'm wearing my handkerchief flashily again
I thought I was different from everyone else but I thought so ordinarily
I'm scared that I'll just lose the things I need

You don't really place any importance on the things you like, do you?
Let's dance!

It was under the sunlight filtering through the trees
I danced there
No one ever would have paid me any mind
Where is this?
A heavy beat resounds
I wonder if my perception of the world's gotten smaller again...

Mr. Loneliness made a face like he understood
We kept spinning around, sadly but gleefully
Your confident steps etched into my mind
If it came to a reason, anything would work

One day I'll turn into a star
Even this world's spinning
The things I'm forgetting, the worthless things
Let's dance, Mr. Loneliness!
We'll create the dance floor
It doesn't matter where as long as we're dancing

TL Note: Likely editing the fuck out of this later lol

Tokyo Girls' Style - Dear Friend Lyrics Translation

After forcing myself a little to smile
I ended up crying
These three years really went by in a flash
Whenever I was caught up in worries you'd be there to hug me
Your face was always by my side

Bursting out laughing at our inside jokes
We can't go back to those times anymore

From tomorrow on we'll be walking different paths
I don't want to look back on this in shame
No one's able to go on living in solitude
You're the one who taught me I could be that strong
Dear friend

The blackboard we scribbled on, the dusty grounds
After tomorrow it'll all be a memory
Even when we got new seats and I was far from you
I got too wrapped up in your words

Looking up at the same old trees along my bus route
Muttering to myself, "Today's the last time I'll see this."

I'm stepping onto a path I chose for myself
You told me it was okay as you pushed me from behind
All the memories of the time we spent together here
Will go on to become my treasures
Dear friend

The melody I was humming overlapped softly
Our harmony swung through the wind

From tomorrow on we'll be walking different paths
I don't want to look back on this in shame
No one's able to go on living in solitude
You're the one who taught me I could be that strong
Dear friend

It's a generic graduation song in terms of lyrics but I like it. Makes me think of a more juvenile Especia. Now that I'm not going to high school anymore I can appreciate these kind of songs more...kind of.

Tentenko - Good Bye Good Girl Lyrics Translation v.2

I live in an apartment facing Yamate street
Five minute's walk from Yoyogi Hachiman station
This year'll be my third as an office lady

My ceiling's concrete
And my bed's made of plywood
In this room stained with red
I've left a clue

According to her neighbors
Good girl, she's a good girl
But every week
She's out all night on Fridays

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To my diary filled up with dreams
Where'd she go off to?
Nobody knows
The points and lines connect

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To those pink-colored earrings
Just one had fallen to the ground
That was my only blind spot

In Uguisudani in the Taito ward
At Moto Mishima shrine
A number of people came forth
They said she was there every Friday night

Wearing heels with a red dress
No matter how you looked at it, I was a whore
I was hiding a secret
In those pink-colored earrings

According to her classmates
Good girl, she was a good girl
But unbeknownst to them all
There was a side of her she was keeping secret

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To my diary filled up with dreams
Where'd she go off to?
Nobody knows
The points and lines connect

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To those pink-colored earrings
Just one had fallen to the ground
That was my only blind spot

According to her parents
Good girl, she was a good girl
But from time to time
She'd stare off in the distance

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To my diary filled up with dreams
Where'd she go off to?
Nobody knows
The points and lines connect

Good bye, lalala SAYONARA
To those pink-colored earrings
Just one had fallen to the ground
That was my only blind spot

This song is one I consider really important to me and as I've continued in my Japanese studies I've become really dissatisfied with what I attempted to translate in the past. I'm not anywhere near fluent, but I'd at least like to remedy some of the problems that were present in my old translation. I've deleted the old one, additionally. I'm not sure anyone looks here, but if you are then I hope you can find some meaning in this. Thanks!

advantage Lucy - Metro Lyrics Translation

Packed into a train without a place to go
I wore my headphones, turning away from the guides

faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway let's go

Going underground, I rode the metro
Instead of being cowardly, I just ran from the darkness

runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway　from here

When you've heard so many things
It's so fine, can you think that way too?

To time I'm kind, to time I'm mean
Without rage, what's important will change

faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway faraway
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway　let's go

行き先を決めず　電車に乗り込み
案内を避けて　ヘッドホンをかぶった

faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway 行こう

地下に潜ってゆく　メトロに乗ってたんだ
ものおじもせずに　闇をただ走る

runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway　ここから

いくつの言葉集めたら
It's so fine　そう思えるのだろう？

時には優しく　時に意地悪で
怒りはしなやかに　切なさへ変わる

faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway faraway
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway　行こう

ArmorGirls - Kishi ni Naru no da! (騎士になるのだっ！) Lyrics Translation

Say! Oh! x4

If our eyes meet, it'll be a mega fight
Suddenly high! Throttle
With a big BOOM! shooting up
Swelling, swelling up, fireworks
Hey! Yo! The West!
Changing into my helmet and armor
In the center of this arena, from now on I'm the heroine
Oh! Hallelujah sky
The sky's already clear
At full power, winning through the first round
Stepping out aiming for the top!
Hey, please watch out for me
Invincibility is always within yourself
Kicking my rivals around, willingly going to the winning road
Shining 'round the clock, I'm becoming a knight!
YEAH!

Say! Oh! x4

If you notice it, we'll be giga friends
Suddenly all ready! Friendly
The day of the fight has come to a close
Swelling, swelling up, memories

Say! Ho! Coming again, today I'm gonna be fighting again
In the center of your memories, from now on I'm in the leading role
So another night
So, your knight
To a future I can't see yet, my heart's dancing, I'm stepping out aiming for it!
Hey, believe in me
Your wish will one day come true
Even if the battle continues, my smile won't die out
However much I shine, I'm becoming a knight!
YEAH!

There'll be hard times too, yeah
In those times, for sure, a light
will shine, like it's wrapping around you
It'll be strong forever

At full power, winning through the final round,
Stepping out aiming for my dream!
Hey, please watch out for me
Invincibility is always right here

Even if the conflict continues, my smile won't die out
However much I shine, I'm becoming a knight!
I'm becoming one!!!!

ArmorGirls - AiAnAi (鋼鉄愛) Lyrics Translation

Gradually getting closer, us two
Just for a moment, your pupils shine
Burning and stinging light
The bout's decided here
I'm calling on you here (battleground)
Strife (Instinct)
Can't stop, won't stop

Continuously forging (refining)
my heart (my spirit)
This is my technique
The way of a knight is to die

For the sake of deciding on this path
For the sake of maintaining my feelings
This body, it's a vessel for steel
I've gotta give it my all

Chu, chu, armor and helmet
We've got lots of armor
Plate
Scale
Lamella armor
What's that? No clue!
Look it up on Google
Steel girls, Let's go!

Even though I don't really have any confidence yet,
Even though sometimes I'm really anxious
This charm, patiently, I'm gonna convey it
I pulled the trigger to start the battle
We're not able to go back anymore
Wearing a mask, firing up, AiAnAi-Ai!

Fluttering, throw out fashionable clothes
Sparkling, throw out make-up
Look after your battle form
Don't think you're gonna lose
Let's go, fight! (Just a little)
Tense (What do I do?)
I can't show my opponent my back
Pumped up (Seriously) Let's go (Let's go!!)
I'm not scared anymore
I'm carrying out my wishes
Armor mask-mask-mask

Even though sometimes I end up crying,
Even though I get discouraged sometimes,
Just a little more, with courage, because I'm looking forward
There will always be another fight
So I'm going to live with no regrets
Equipped with a mask, it's beginning, AiAinAi-Ai!

Armor-clad Monday, Tuesday
A helmet on my head Wednesday, Thurday
Preparing a sword Friday, Friday
The weekend, battle resounds through my head

Because I'm not able to end it like this
Because I want you to know me
Resolutely, wearing a mask, I shouted my name (ARMORGIRLS!)
The frozen clock's begun to move, history's page is turning
We are steel love-love AiAinAi-Ai!

Win or lose, trembling indecisively
Sink or swim, staking a bet dazzlingly
Black and white, thrilling contrariety
Is this a dream?
From now on, we're ARMOR GIRLS LOVE
