Paroles et traduction ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION - Goodbye Lost Generation

Goodbye Lost Generation

「将来の夢を持て」なんて無責任な物言いも
1986に膨らんだ泡と一緒に弾けたの
「何もないです」
それで「ロスト・ジェネレイション」か
忘れないで
僕らずっと此処でそれでも生きているの
息しているよ
「経済は底を打つはず」と博打打ちが煽るけれど
2010は僕たちを一体何処へ連れてくの
何もないです
それならそうで
拗ねていないで この檻を出よう
「暗いね」って切なくなって
「辛いね」ってそんなこと言わないで
「暗いね」って君が嘆くような時代なんて
もう僕らで終わりにしよう
「願いは叶います」なんて科白が空しく響いても
それでも現在を生きることに何か希望を感じたいような
夢ではないです
頬をつねって
目を見開いて この檻を出よう
「暗いね」って切なくなって
「辛いね」ってそんなこと言わないで
「暗いね」って君が嘆くような時代なんて
もう僕らで終わりにしよう
いつの間にか閉じ込められたのは言葉とこころの檻
自意識に埋もれて僕たちは内側だけを愛でているようだ
神様気取りで深く暗い沼の「自分探し」より
窓を開け その外側は何処へだって続いている
何もないな
嗚呼... 何もないさ
そうだ そんなものだ
いつかは全部なくなって
それでもせめて
君に会いに行こう
「暗いね」って切なくなって
「辛いね」ってそんなこと言わないで
「暗いね」って君が嘆くような時代なんて
今日でやめにしよう
それでは足りない?
何が足りないって言うんだろう
言え

Goodbye Lost Generation

Recklessly telling us "have a dream for your future"
Popped along with the bubble that bloomed in 1986
There's "nothing"
So you're a "lost generation"?
Don't you forget
We've been here all along, somehow alive
We're breathing
Gamblers hype up that "the economy is about to hit rock bottom"
Where, exactly, will 2010 take us?
There's nothing
If that's the case
Let's not get all bitter, let's break out of this cage
You get sad and say "it's dark"
You get hurt and complain "it's tough"
During an era that makes you whine "it's dark"
Let's put an end to it ourselves
Even when lines like "your wish will come true" feel empty
I still want to feel something about living in the present
It's not a dream
Pinch your cheek
Open your eyes and let's break out of this cage
You get sad and say "it's dark"
You get hurt and complain "it's tough"
During an era that makes you whine "it's dark"
Let's put an end to it ourselves
Before we knew it, we were locked in cages made of words and hearts
Buried by our self-consciousness, it seems we only love what's inside
More "searching for oneself" than acting like God and delving deep into dark swamps
Open the window, the outside world could go on forever
There's nothing
Ah... there's nothing
That's right, that's how it is
Everything will disappear someday
But still, at the very least
Let's go see you
You get sad and say "it's dark"
You get hurt and complain "it's tough"
During an era that makes you whine "it's dark"
Let's end it all today
Is that not enough?
What do you mean what's not enough?
Tell me
