Nonfiction

• Por: 浜崎あゆみ

Letra:

[日本語]

[English]

Zzz... 浮かない顔してるのは

Zzz... The face you're making is gloomy

鏡のあなた自身

It's your own reflection in the mirror

この頃ちょっと狂いすぎてる

Lately, things have been a bit too crazy

だから嘘はすぐにめくれる

That's why lies can be uncovered quickly

引き換えに犠牲にした

I wonder if there are things sacrificed in exchange

モノとかあるのかなって

If you're being serious about it

マジで言ってんなら

Are you kidding me

Are you kidding me

Are you kidding me

成功が人生のゴールですか？

Is success the goal of life?

その成功って何ですか？

What does that success even mean?

枠にはまらないのは罪ですか？

Is it a sin to not fit into the mold?

その他大勢なら安心ですか？

Is it comforting to be just one of the many?

So oh 独りは確かに孤独だけど

So oh, being alone is certainly lonely

自由も無限だった

But freedom was also infinite

制限されるにつれ分かったのは

What I realized as I faced restrictions

なんにしろ孤独は消えない

Is that loneliness never disappears

正直もんがバカをみる

Honesty often leads to foolishness

なんて良く言ったもんだわ

What a wise saying that is

鵜呑みにするなら

If you take it at face value

You're full of shit

You're full of shit

人の幸せが嫉ましいですか？

Are you envious of other people's happiness?

見えてるのは全てでしょうか？

Is what you see everything there is?

画面上だけで決めてませんか？

Aren't you deciding based only on the screen?

果たしてそれはリアルでしょうか？

Is that really real?

You say 「No!」「No!」

You say "No!""No!"

what you don't believe

What you don't believe

生きるのは誰だってしんどい

Living is tough for everyone

I say 「Yes!」「Yes!」

I say "Yes!""Yes!"

what I do believe

What I do believe

We gotta be careful what's fiction

We gotta be careful what's fiction

What you do believe

What you do believe

成功が人生のゴールですか？

Is success the goal of life?

その成功って何ですか？

What does that success even mean?

枠にはまらないのは罪ですか？

Is it a sin to not fit into the mold?

その他大勢ならOK？

Is it okay to be just one of the many?

人の幸せが嫉ましいですか？

Are you envious of other people's happiness?

見えてるのは全てでしょうか？

Is what you see everything there is?

画面上だけで決めてませんか？

Aren't you deciding based only on the screen?

果たしてそれはリアルでしょうか？

Is that really real?

You say 「No!」「No!」

You say "No!""No!"

what you don't believe

What you don't believe

完璧じゃないから美しい

It's beautiful because it's not perfect

I say 「Yes!」「Yes!」

I say "Yes!""Yes!"

what I do believe

What I do believe

We gotta be careful what's fiction

We gotta be careful what's fiction
