Utada Hikaru - Deep River
[MV Sub / Translation] (long ver.)
[Prologue]
Two mirrors faced each other,
Humming as they reflected one another.
When I meet someone that resembles me,
I will make the same sound.
Children and adults like to look at their reflection in the mirror.
While you stare down your reflection, if you forget that it’s only a mirror,
The silent space overwhelms you and you remember the emptiness.
I am a mirror.
I won’t hold out my hands to those who are stuck
In a place that my light can’t reach. Instead, I will place myself as close to them as I can.
Then they’ll see what I see.
When pain can be shared with someone else
It turns into something good. I know that.
It’s not like sadness suddenly disappeared or the world changed overnight,
But seeing my world turned upside down really brought a new perspective.
Everybody is looking for someone who resembles them.
No matter how much you hate yourself, you can love someone who resembles you.
There is no love in what we call admiration and adoration.
But, what humans love the most in this world
Is the one who resembles them most—their child.
I am a child.
Because I believe that I’m taking the right path, I don’t
Think of everything that I’ve left behind as sacrifices.
The sky closes its eyes.
[Song]
As I connect the dots
Is the line that my finger draws
The path that I’ve taken or the road still ahead
We joined the lines
In the end everyone finds their way to the ocean and becomes one
So I’m not afraid
Let the countless rivers flow
Without paying heed to reason
Unlike how freely we accepted our own names
We don’t have to accept everything
For what it is
All of our pain has just flown away
(That’s why I chose you)
We were not given swords
To know the sound of them striking together
Who can we protect with such contradictions?
Today I am searching for you
The one who has changed so much
Since you first appeared before my eyes
We don’t have to seek acceptance
Wherever we go
Everyone was bestowed with a blade called individuality
Sometimes changing our course
With just the clothes on our backs
Unlike how freely we accepted our own names
We don’t have to accept everything
For what it is
We’re just birds taking off into the salty breeze

Perfume - Future Pop [MV Sub / Translation]
Perfume × docomo “Future Pop” Project
The familiar scenery is changing
When everything becomes connected
Everything in the roaring city sounds
Closer
Light wave through the skyway
Grant me it, come on, Future Pop
Light wave through the skyway
Grant me it, come on, Future Pop
The meaning is different from what it was then
But we’ve continued living this far
The air reproduces everything the future
Has in store
Light wave through the skyway
Grant me it, come on, Future Pop

To Distortion!
Distorted bodies scream out
Distorted pains cut at me
The world was so filthy
As long as these distorted wings can fly
I won’t fear your distorted reign
Kill and abandon the hypocrites!
Give up Give up

Give up Give up
To Distortion!
Distorted bodies scream out
Distorted victims wounded
The world was so filthy
If you give me distorted words
I’ll want to fulfill distorted wishes
Can’t get the power
Is this the bad dream?
Can’t get the power
Caught in the bad dream
Distorted bodies scream out
Distorted light stolen away
The world was so filthy
If the distorted bond is broken
I won’t forget the distorted oath
Even if this world breaks

SEKAI NO OWARI - Sazanka
[MV Subbed / Translation]
The sound of the door closing, a mark on the calendar
From my room, I can hear you cry
You said it would be scarier to run away
So you chased your dreams
Your efforts wasted, you became insecure
You leaned on me every once in a while
You cried to me
That if you give up now, everything you did until now
Would be in vain
While you’re out there chasing dreams
Remember whenever you stumble
The hero of the story is always the one
Who gets laughed at
Not the one who does the laughing
That’s what I think
You fell more than them, you cried more than them
You stood up again more than them
What I know
Better than anyone else
Is the moment where you shine brightest
While you’re out there chasing dreams
Remember whenever you feel broken
As long as the hero of the story
Stands back up again and again
The story will go on
The reason you cry
Even though you’re happy
Is because you remember
The road you came along
While you’re out there chasing dreams
Remember whenever you stumble
The hero of the story is always the one
Who gets laughed at
Not the one who does the laughing
If it’s you, surely…
