Utsushikagami ~Nikushimi No Hokosaki~ Lyrics English Translation by Yesung
Hated names again,
one by two, they just keep stacking up
“Where did it start?”
“Who’s to blame?”
The world’s voice bares its fangs
even sharper
Ripples keep spreading
stealing the space to breathe
slowly
eating away at the heart
At the end of this chain that goes round
a shadow I recognize
with quiet eyes, wow
turns back to look (and that’s when)
I finally realized
the finger I was pointing
had its aim turned back on me
Even when we
stop meeting eyes and saying words
anonymous messages
kept flooding in instead
Ripples keep spreading
turning into massive waves
and someday
I won’t even forgive myself
At the end of this chain that goes round
a shadow I recognize
with quiet eyes, wow
was asking me
If the one I hate
is just my reflection
then look—
at the end of it all, it’s me, yeah
I won’t hesitate anymore
the pain I gave
sure as hell won’t stay with someone else, wow
it’ll come right back (to me)
If you shut people out
at the end of where malice leads
you’ll be left behind
all alone
