デジャヴ [Déjà Vu] [English translation]

Not deviating from that of exhaust gas,

Floating in the air, wandering about and being wrapped in love

A fixed exchange rate system under pre-established harmony

Until today, when I put on the guise of a pair

They say that isn't love, that there's no love again

Apart from those worthless wishes

Just bark like so, and that's the end of that

Breaking, fixing, only to break again

And thus those pieces of grief were left in my hands

They make up the costly hole in my heart

Looks like it'll never to go back to the way it was

"You're not normal"

I'm not normal

Since when did I start to feel off?

Nine classes spent fixed on the window frame

A chalk to make others laugh, going so far as to lie

If this is all the world has to offer,

We might just go mad

Hey, why, why do you do as you please?

Loving like an infectious disease

Not meeting expectations, not counting appeals

A prisoner’s dilemma set in stone

Trafficked hearts, actions, wishes - a surrounding mirage

How are the unavoidable regrets? How is your brain?

I don’t know! Why, why?

Holding a knife within legality, feeling out-of-place is the main character

Shaking, you refuse it; the edge of a blade trailing your veins

Making my eyes throb in pain is a life filled with déjà vu

There was a lot of love that could happen in TV dramas

Should be enough to tide us over, right?

One's last farewell; as though leaving no impression

Unable to get a signal, the screen goes static... comical

In the afterglow of sunset, I'll see you tomorrow

Those who forget their promises and homework win

And just like that, again tonight,

I feel like I might spill out from this world

Hey, why, why do you do as you please?

Emergency lights at a crooked lifetime

Escape, bad behavior, oil lighters

The bomb in your mouth scatters about

Secret auctions, transactions, fair exchanges - the jeering from hecklers

How are the unavoidable regrets? How is your brain?

You're scared, aren't you? Why, why?

Holding a knife within legality, I diced the future up into even pieces

Expensive uniforms and those who dress well - all will fall in turn

Eating away at me again today is a life filled with déjà vu

Emptiness, square roots; nothing I haven't seen already

There's nothing brand-new beyond this

Envy, attachment, delusion, complexities

Identity, alarms, forevermore

Creation, design, imagination; no more than categories

Suspicion, vanity, mates

Even with their existences tried and true,

You'll still pry into and manipulate anyone at all

No matter where I look, there's no salvation from this lack of love

Lend me your hands, and we're off to the warped future

Tormented by the déjà vu that's become too much to bear,

Where should I throw my heart away?

Hey, why, why do you do as you please?

Loving like an infectious disease

Not meeting expectations, not counting appeals

A prisoner’s dilemma set in stone

Trafficked hearts, actions, wishes -

The mirage surrounding me

How are the unavoidable regrets? How is your brain?

You love me, don't you? Why, why?

Why oh why oh why oh why

How do we live on?

Of course, thank you, Merry Bad End

If you're born, it's pretty much a Dystopia

Making my eyes throb in pain is a life filled with déjà vu
