*actually this was my very first translation in 2008.. that's 12 years ago!
Now, I am retranslating this piece for my own nostalgia and current standard of Japanese.
*this is a coupling song from Wakeshima Kanon's single "Still Doll"
Lyrics : Wakeshima Kanon
Composer : MANA
Single - Still Doll
Unable to challenge my destiny
My mind in Chaos
Hands that can’t stop heaven and time
Both hands in blind obedience
The thread tightens
Open your stitched up eyes!
Break down invisible walls!
Even if it is a mechanical thought
it will gnaw at your dreams.
A dark past and scary future,
is the reason you ponder over words.
Knowing their limitations
within a black birdcage
Even if you mute your voice
Believe in the unseeable!
I want to protect
my beloved even if
my arms are trembling.
Moving forward to a place in the future,
seeing hope even in the small, dark world.
Open your magenta eyes.
