Lyrics & Translation

[English]

死んだ！ SHINDA!

Died, died, died again today

My hands, feet, and head feel like they're about to come off

My body has become completely dry

はっはっはっはっはっはっはっは hahhahhahhahhahhahhahha

It's like every day is a coffin

Tonight, I just sleep like mud

Yes, I'm just a corpse that's still alive

In such days, I can't help but cheat

A runaway from being "smart"

Being cowardly is also a thrill

Otherwise, it feels like I'm the fool

Isn't that unpleasant?

Behind the scenes, we are

Manipulated by a necromancer

You too, together with me

Shall we cut the strings of that marionette?

Dance!

Died, died, died again today

My hands, feet, and head feel like they're about to come off

My body has become completely dry

はっはっはっは hahhahhahha

Died, died, this is dead

I feel like I'm about to be summoned to heaven

Let's laugh off such a day

はっはっはっはっはっはっはっは hahhahhahhahhahhahhahha

Good grief, it's a tough world to live in

If that's the case, let's just dance all night

Even if my body rots away

My heart hasn't rotted, has it?

Even if every day is a coffin

Gathering small joys

“Yeah, just being alive is happiness”

I suppress that voice, killing myself

As quietly as possible

It's better to keep living

Before I knew it, I felt like a transparent person

To express "you" is up to you yourself

It's okay, together

Shall we ride the rhythm of that revolution?

Make some noise!

I'm stuck, stuck, stuck again today

There's no dream or hope

With a beat that's been shredded to pieces

Zuntattattatta

I'm stuck, stuck, this is stuck

I feel like my life is about to end

Forget about such things for now

Zuntattattattattattattatta

Tonight, I'm feeling dizzy

Wandering night after night

Everyone is leaving this troubled world

Gathering for the witching hour

Being put into a coffin

Bound for a lifetime

Manipulated by something

I don't want to live anymore!

Died, died, died again today

My hands, feet, and head feel like they're about to come off

My body has become completely dry

はっはっはっは hahhahhahha

Died, died, this is dead

I feel like I'm about to be summoned to heaven

Let's laugh off such a day

Good grief, it's a tough world to live in

If that's the case, let's just dance all night

それならそのまま踊り明かせばいい sore nara sono mama odoriakaseba ii

Even if my body rots away

My heart hasn't rotted, has it?

Let's raise the roof until we become bones

[Japanese]

死んだ！ SHINDA!

死んだ　死んだ　今日も死んだ shinda shinda kyou mo shinda

手 足 頭が取れちゃいそうだ te ashi atama ga torechaisouda

カラッカラになった体 karakkara ni natta karada

はっはっはっはっはっはっはっは hahhahhahhahhahhahhahha

まるで毎日が棺桶 marude mainichi ga kan’oke

今夜も泥のように眠るだけ konya mo doro no you ni nemuru dake

そう　生きてるだけの屍 sou ikiteru dake no shikabane

そんな日々にはズルをしちゃうわけ sonna hibi ni wa zuru o shichau wake

「お利口」からの逃避行　 “orikou” kara no touhikou

卑怯もまた一興 hikyou mo mata ikkyo

じゃないと馬鹿を見るみたいで　 janai to baka o miru mitai de

イヤじゃない？ iya janai?

裏で僕らを ura de bokura o

操る屍術師（ネクロマンサー） ayatsuru nekuromansaa

君も一緒に kimi mo issho ni

そのマリオネットの糸を切ろうか sono marionetto no ito o kirou ka

踊れ！ odore!

死んだ　死んだ　今日も死んだ shinda shinda kyou mo shinda

手 足 頭が取れちゃいそうだ te ashi atama ga torechaisouda

カラッカラになった体　 karakkara ni natta karada

はっはっはっは hahhahhahha

死んだ　死んだ　コレは死んだ shinda shinda kore wa shinda

このまま天に召されちゃいそうだ kono mama ten ni mesarechai sou da

そんな今日など笑い飛ばして sonna kyou nado waraitobashite

はっはっはっはっはっはっはっは hahhahhahhahhahhahhahha

やれやれ　なかなか生きにくい世界だ yareyare nakanaka ikinikui sekai da

それならそのまま踊り明かせばいい sore nara sono mama odoriakaseba ii

たとえばその身が果てて腐っても tatoeba sonomi ga hatete kusattemo

心まで腐ったわけじゃないでしょ？ kokoro made kusatta wake ja nai desho?

たとえ毎日が棺桶でも tatoe mainichi ga kan’oke demo

小さな喜び　かき集め chiisana yorokobi kakiatsume

「うん、生きてるだけで幸せ」 “un, ikiteru dake de shiawase”

って声を殺し　自分を殺して tte koe o koroshi jibun o koroshite

なるべく音を立てずに　 narubeku oto o tatezu ni

生きてくのがいいよと ikiteku no ga ii yo to

気がついたら透明人間みたい ki ga tsuitara toumei ningen mitai

「君」を表現するのは君自身だ “kimi” o hyougen suru no wa kimi jishin da

大丈夫　一緒に daijoubu issho ni

その革命のリズムに乗ろうか sono kakumei no rizumu ni norou ka

騒げ！ sawage!

詰んだ詰んだ　今日も詰んだ tsunda tsunda kyou mo tsunda

夢も希望もあるわけないや yume mo kibou mo aru wake nai ya

ズッタズタに刻んだビートで　 zuttazuta ni kizanda biito de

ズンタッタッタッタ zuntattattatta

詰んだ詰んだ　コレは詰んだ tsunda tsunda kore wa tsunda

このまま人生終わっちゃいそうだ kono mama jinsei owacchaisouda

そんなことなど今は忘れて sonna koto nado ima wa wasurete

ズンタッタッタッタッタッタッタッタ zuntattattattattattattatta

今宵ふらふら koyoi furafura

彷徨うように夜な夜な samayou you ni yonayona

みんな憂き世を離れ minna ukiyo o hanare

集まり出す丑三ナイト atsumaridasu ushimitsu naito

棺桶に入れられて kan’oke ni irerarete

一生を縛られて isshou o shibararete

何かに操られて nanika ni ayatsurarete

生きるのはもう嫌だー！ ikiru no wa mou iya da!

死んだ　死んだ　今日も死んだ shinda shinda kyou mo shinda

手 足 頭が取れちゃいそうだ te ashi atama ga torechaisouda

カラッカラになった体　 karakkara ni natta karada

はっはっはっは hahhahhahha

死んだ　死んだ　コレは死んだ shinda shinda kore wa shinda

このまま天に召されちゃいそうだ kono mama ten ni mesarechai sou da

そんな今日など笑い飛ばして sonna kyou nado waraitobashite

はっはっはっはっはっはっはっは hahhahhahhahhahhahhahha

やれやれ　なかなか生きにくい世界だ yareyare nakanaka ikinikui sekai da

それならそのまま踊り明かせばいい sore nara sono mama odoriakaseba ii

たとえばその身が果てて腐っても tatoeba sonomi ga hatete kusattemo

心まで腐ったわけじゃない kokoro made kusatta wake ja nai

骨になるまでブチ上げましょう hone ni naru made buchiagemashou
