[English]

Lend me your charger!

Again, because of you, I'm worn down.

I missed the last train.

Again, because of me, I couldn't get home.

Let's stay connected, dragging each other into a draining battle.

Our youthful days where we both held each other back.

Together forever, settled in lingering memories!

Even on the school observation day,

I felt like nobody was watching me.

I kept being cynical over and over.

I decided not to have any expectations of the daytime city.

Even the loneliness I tried to protect

got completely messed up.

I always feel like I just want to die.

I can't bring myself to cherish a face like this.

The days we spent together

A modest happiness

It would be nice if it turned into an unforgettable trauma.

Being apart

It's just a bug someone forced us to have, right?

As the regret of your whole life,

I'll stay with you forever.

Q. What's important, I wonder?

A. What we just lost.

I made a mistake with you.

There's no going back now.

In both healthy times and sick times,

Forever together in the gruesome history!

Just a little more normally,

I wanted to be able to think sad things were sad.

In a major‑key tune,

I wanted to outsource my feelings and feel relieved.

"Just try to live your whole life earnestly," they said.

I always feel like I just want to die.

I don't want to be at the mercy of such a song.

Just you alone,

While you look away from me,

Don't think about becoming happy.

Since the night you dried my hair,

I was broken.

As the regret of your whole life,

I'll stay with you forever.

It became impossible to remove,

Like a ring.

I keep flashbacking over and over,

It's the worst.

When we were together,

I was prettier back then.

As the regret of your whole life,

I'll stay with you forever.

Q. What's important, I wonder?

A. What we just lost.

I made a mistake with you.

There's no going back now.

In both healthy times and sick times,

Even if you're sleeping with someone else,

Forever together in matching nightmares!

[Japanese]

充電器貸して！

またあなたのせいであたしすり減った

終電見逃して

またあたしのせいで帰れなくなった

繋がっていようね、消耗戦に持ち込んで

お互いに足を引っ張ったアオハル

沈殿した思い出でずうっといっしょ！

参観日にだって

誰からも見られていない気がしたんだ

散々シニカって

昼の街に期待しないようにしたんだ

そうやって守った孤独さえ

めちゃくちゃになった

あたしいつだって死にたくて仕方ない

こんな顔大事にしたいと思えないもん

共に過ごした日々が

ささやかな幸せが

かけがえのないトラウマになってたらいいな

はなればなれなんて

誰かが吐かせたバグだよね？

あなたの一生の後悔として

添い遂げるよ

Q.大切なものって、なあに？

A.今なくしたそれ

あたしと間違いを犯しちゃったんだ

取り返しがつかないね

健やかなるときも病める時も

グロい履歴の中でずうっといっしょ！

もうちょっと普通に

悲しいこと悲しいと思いたかった

長調のチューンに

感情委託して楽になりたかった

「せいぜい一生懸命に生きてくださいね」

あたしいつだって死にたくて仕方ない

あんな歌の言いなりになっていたくないの

あなただけ一人で

あたしの目を盗んで

幸せになろうなんて思わないで

髪を乾かしてくれた夜から

あたしは壊されたんだよ

あなたの一生の後悔として

添い遂げるよ

外れなくなってしまった

指輪みたいに

何度もずっとフラッシュバックしている、

最低だよ

一緒にいた時の方が

あたし可愛かったなあ

あなたの一生の後悔として

添い遂げるよ

Q.大切なものって、なあに？

A.今なくしたそれ

あたしと間違いを犯しちゃったんだ

取り返しがつかないね

健やかなるときも病める時も

他の誰かと眠っていても

お揃いの悪夢でずうっといっしょ！

Key Grammar Structures

• 充電器貸して！

  ➔ Imperative/Command Form

  ➔ The sentence is a direct request. The verb '貸して' (kashite) is in its imperative form, meaning 'lend me'. It's a very direct and somewhat demanding way to ask for something.

• 沈殿した思い出でずうっといっしょ！

  ➔ Past Participle + 'ずうっと' (zuutto) + 'いっしょ' (issho)

  ➔ This sentence uses the past participle '沈殿した' (chinjō shita - precipitated, settled) to describe memories. 'ずうっと' (zuutto) means 'always' or 'continuously', and 'いっしょ' (issho) means 'together'. The overall meaning is 'We're always together with these settled memories'.

• あなたの一生の後悔として添い遂げるよ

  ➔ Noun + の + Noun + として + Verb (te-form) + 添い遂げる (soitsugeru)

  ➔ This is a complex sentence structure. 'あなたの一生の後悔' (anata no isshō no kōkai - your lifetime of regret) is used as a qualifier, with 'として' (toshite - as) connecting it to the verb '添い遂げる' (soitsugeru - to accompany to the end, to see through to the end). The 'よ' (yo) adds emphasis.

• はなればなれなんて誰かが吐かせたバグだよね？

  ➔ Noun + なんて + Noun + 誰かが + Verb (past tense) + バグだよね？

  ➔ 'はなればなれ' (hanarebanare - being apart) is emphasized with 'なんて' (nante - what a...). The sentence implies separation is an unexpected error or glitch ('バグ' - bug). The 'よね' (yone) seeks confirmation.
