The title is also used to refer to a cast-off cicada shell. I chose ‘A Man of This World’ based on the lyrics and the video.
The first line of the chorus, 嗚呼 今すぐ盗みを知ろう is an interesting one. I feel like it’s implying that all the stuff in the second line is being stolen, but I couldn’t make it work with the grammar…
歌詞
捲る空の上の鉄塔
何も知らず上がる煙と
愛情って無いかって
生まれ持ったクウル
知らず知らず描く幻想
それもたまに悪くないと
開き直って
物ぐさにピイス
嗚呼 今すぐ盗みを知ろう
この星の彼方 全部
響く 響く 想いは君の為
全くどうして僕は
歩いてるんだろう
サヨナラなんて言わないわって
よく言うないつも
転がりすぎてる展望
君は宵の酔いも良いと
喰らってクラって
頭ん中ブルウ
嗚呼 今すぐ盗みを知ろう
この星の彼方 全部
響く 響く 想いは君の為

Translation
Pylons rise above the turbulent sky.
The smoke ascends, knowing nothing.
Thinking love was non-existent
I was born with this coolness.
I sketched out an illusion unconsciously.
That’s not bad occasionally.
I get serious
and make a peace sign in laziness.
Ah… let’s understand ‘theft’ right away.
What lies beyond this planet—everything!
Echoing, echoing… my feelings are all for your sake.
Seriously… why
am I walking?
“I won’t say farewell!”
You say that all the time, huh?
The things I look at spin around too much.
You like evening drunkenness
and you eat and ‘eat’,
Though you’re blue inside your head.
Ah… let’s understand ‘theft’ right away.
What lies beyond this planet—everything!
Echoing, echoing… my feelings are all for your sake.

Thank you for the translation! I really love this song, especially the mood and how the lines rhyme.
And yes, I thought the same for the first two lines of the chorus. Like, stealing everything beyond the planet and seeing what it’s like to do so.
Also, the second line in the second verse, what is it referring to? The illusion, or the act of sketching the illusion?

Thanks for your comment! I love the rhyming too, it’s really effective.
The first line of the second verse specifically refers to the illusion or illusions in the original text, so I’d say that’s what the second line is referring to.
