A Collection of Lyrics for Grunge
I've been debating whether to post this for a while, but in the end, the need and desire to honestly express my thoughts seem to have overcome my concerns.
Because I'm a non-native English speaker, the lyrics of the songs I've chosen are not in English by default.
This post is part of a series, so it will continue.
1.Happy Birthday, Kyoko (杏子)
I truly feel sorry for not being able to say things well I mulled it over a while, but I eventually fell asleep from exhaustion On the weekends, this town's air is stuffy and makes me choke, And when I sighed deeply, it was blotted out by the outdoor speakers Even when I put the words together, they're never meant to be said The voice I shout as loudly as I can into the sky over this bustling city Is my "Happy Birthday" to that person, in some faraway city
2.Oath, Hikaru Utada (誓い - 宇多田ヒカル)
This very day's without past or precedence It's an ideal day for our oath I don't need pretty flowers or witnesses Let's wear rings with the same colors Kiss me once, kiss me twice Just once isn't enough Kiss me once, kiss me twice Please give me you Kiss me once, kiss me twice Kiss me three times Please Kiss me once, kiss me twice Please give me you Let's listen to the sound of the rising sun, shoulder-to-shoulder Let's make an oath to live together
3.Wild Alliance, Ko Shibasaki (野性の同盟 - 柴咲コウ)
I miswrote a letter without any greeting The fold that I want to regard as important is bulky I crammed all of my mixed feelings into it, but as usual, I can't bring myself to send it to you I sew up this dissolute world, hoping to be rewarded We own this wildness Hey, how come we can't meet now? I want you to tell me I want to hear your voice The fact is, I knew before you even said it For you, only the silence is right
4.Pale Blue, Kenshi Yonezu (米津玄師)
That's a terribly out-of-length haute couture These frayed buttonholes I want to end this kind of crazy stage But I couldn't think of any closing remarks So I gazed at you No matter how many times I reborn, it's meaningless I want to be guided somewhere where I can meet you again I have nothing to say now, except I fell in love with you, with the pain Always, always, always
5.Love, Bluedawn (사랑 - 푸른새벽)
A nostalgia passes by here, this place is suddenly contracted and following that road it will get crooked Silence is shrinking pale, I silently walk towards it, it is sitting curled up Oh come in, pass by me I raise up the painful body and what on earth was this? I realized that it nodded with its eyes Silence is getting pale I silently call out its name, it's still dawn inside me Suddenly I search Silence is getting pale I silently call out its name, it's still dawn inside me Oh come in, pass by me with all your strength Love is a common story, right? Like this
6.Le suite, Mitsuki Takahata (青春の続き - 高畑充希)
I want to meet you "It's exhausting to live only for myself At this age, expectations and disappointments are all too obvious." My love for you has become overwhelming I want you to strongly and deeply embrace this fragile mind and body that has no place to go, and intoxicate me Ah, as long as I can hold onto you, I'll always feel safe

These are screenshots made to look like they're part of an opening sequence. What kind of opening? That's for you to imagine.
Bonus:
He really needs to smile more.
Oh my gosh…I've been eagerly waiting for your art…and the moment I saw it, all the tiredness just vanished…Thank you so much…Your works always feeds me…
I was tired and devastated, and it was okay, but then I have accidentally rekindled that flame and, well, I guess it's time to drop more driftwood into this river. Figuratively speaking.
