Paroles et traduction Spitz - Nezumi no Shinka

Nezumi no Shinka

始めの気持ちをふりしぼり
予選で負けても立ち上がる
本音はこまごまあるけれど
ひざこぞう はらって 立ち上がる
言い訳するだけ悲しくて 涙しょっぱくても
いつか 目覚めたネズミになる
進化のための長い旅に出る
さらに高いところへ かけのぼるような
目覚めたネズミになる
じっとしていたらたたかれて
素直に進めば潰される
よく見りゃいくつも道があり
実はその先も分かれてた

遅い気がしても 行けるだけ 行ってみようかな
いいよね? 小さなネズミになる
奴らにも届かない場所がある
すぐに狭い抜け穴 逃げ込めるような
小さなネズミになる
君の言葉を信じたい ステキな嘘だから
いつか 目覚めたネズミになる
進化のための長い旅に出る
さらに高いところへ かけのぼるような
目覚めたネズミになる
長い長い長い旅に出る
いつか 目覚めたネズミになる

The Evolution of a Mouse

Summoning my initial feelings,
I rise even after losing the preliminaries.
Though I have many secret thoughts,
I shake off my knees and stand up.
It's only sad to make excuses, and my tears are salty,
but someday I will become an awakened mouse,
embarking on a long journey of evolution.
Like climbing somewhere even higher,
I will become an awakened mouse.
If I stay still, I will be struck down,
and if I go forward honestly, I will be crushed.
If you look closely, there are many paths,
and in fact, there are more ahead.

Even if it feels slow, I will go as far as I can go.
Isn't that right? I'll become a little mouse,
a place that even those guys can't reach,
like a narrow hole I can escape into.
I'll become a little mouse.
I want to believe your words, that sweet lie.
Someday I will become an awakened mouse,
embarking on a long journey of evolution.
Like climbing somewhere even higher,
I will become an awakened mouse.
Embarking on a long, long, long journey,
someday I will become an awakened mouse.
