東 (THE EAST)

歌詞

あーあ　いつからか「あんな人もいたね」と笑われるのか
確かにな　あの時のお前も笑えたよな

カオスみたいな淀んだ目をしてるって言われた
そんなお前も気付けば30過ぎだった
なんか適当に知り合った適当な相手と
適当な性行為に走った結果が
お前を適当でいられなくしていた
誰かの幸せは所詮誰かの幸せでしかなかった
自分を幸せにするのが遅すぎたんだって
お前は淀んだ目をしてカオスに向かって身を投げた

誰にもできない
誰もやらない
誰にも負けない
誰にも勝てない
誰にも見せない
誰も見てない
誰にも言えない
誰にも刺せない詩

最低なことを何回もしよう　罵られても笑って眠ろうぜ
メンタル病んでも子供が死んでも君は幸せになり放題！
最近すっかり丸くはならない　容易く認める奴は認めない
成長タイプは大器晩成のどこにでもいるサラリーマン

#社会の保障　#仕事人生
#住宅ローン　#貧乏家族
#かじかむ体　#塞がる手立て
#視野の狭窄　#いつかは来ない

なんかもう居た堪れないんだよ全部何もかもさ
大した歌でも演奏でもない癖にコンセプト気取って
アーティスト面してきたズブの素人が
常識に囚われない自由な発想で他人の土俵乗ってたら世話ねえんだよ
そうだよ趣味でやってんだよ仕事でこんなことやるわけねえだろ馬鹿が
何が現代日本だよお前の周りの話だろ
そうだよお前の想像の範囲にしかお前の人生はねえよ
それがお前の国ってことだよ
わかったらさっさと電気消してスマホ充電して今日はもう寝ろ

誰か　誰か　探して　行くあてもなくした夜更け過ぎ
喉も嗄れていたっけな　道端にゴミだけ咲いていた

あれが　あれが　僕らの　成れ果ての姿に思えてさ
街を歩く野良猫が　やけに羨ましくなったんだ

いつか誰かが加害者になり　下らないことに毒を吐いたり
親の前で見せられない顔をしたりするんです
それでも君は被害者だから　遣る瀬無い明日に期待をしたり
夢のような今を生きていけるんです

金が無いなら無いでメシ抜いて　僕ら時代を駆け抜けた
確かな価値とか産める気しないけど
僕らに愛は不自然だ　会話の先はマイナスだ
遠くの合図は見えない素振り
あああああああああああ

こんな東のはずれで
君が会いに来るのを待っている
待っている
待っている

Translation

Ah… how long have I been laughed at, with people saying “Oh, that’s right, I remember them.”
That’s right. It made you laugh back then, too.

They said your eyes were dull, as if chaos lurked within them.
By the time you realised it, you were over 30.
Together with the proper partner you met in the proper way
you had proper sex and, following from that
you couldn’t be proper anymore.
In the end, someone’s happiness was nothing more than that.
You were too slow to make yourself happy
so, with dull eyes, you faced chaos and threw yourself in.

Nobody can do it.
Nobody will do it.
I won’t lose to anyone.
I won’t win against anyone.
I won’t let anyone see.
Nobody is looking.
I won’t tell anyone
This poem can’t sting anyone.

Let’s do the most awful things over and over! Even if they speak ill of us, let’s laugh and sleep.
Though you may suffer mentally, though your children may die, you’ll be as happy as you like!
I haven’t been able to keep calm lately. I won’t accept the people who accept me easily.
My growth type is the same as an ordinary office worker whose talents are late to ripen.

I just can’t stand this a moment longer!
It’s not even a good song or performance but, acting like it’s all conceptual,
the amateur pretended to be an artist this whole time.
Not being held back by common sense, they get in other people’s sumo rings with free ideas but don’t help them.
That’s right, I’m doing it as a hobby, as if I’d do it as a job. How foolish.
What, people in modern Japan? No, I’m speaking about the people around you.
That’s right, your life is determined by the scope of your imagination.
“That’s your country.”
Once you’ve got that, hurry up and turn out the lights, turn on your smartphone and go to bed!

Searching, searching for someone. The late night passes. I’d lost my destination.
Was I a bit hoarse…? Only trash blooms on the roadside.

It looked so, so much like us at the end of all things.
I became so jealous of the stray cats walking the streets.

Someday, someone will become the aggressor and spit venom at worthless things.
They’ll show a side of themselves they can’t show their parents.
Still, you’re the victim, so I have hopes for a helpless tomorrow
and can live through today, which is so like a dream.

If you’ve got no cash, then omit food. We race through this era
though we’ve got no solid worth or desire to have kids.
Love doesn’t come naturally for us. Our conversations just end in negativity.
We act like we can’t see distant signs.
Ah!

At the outskirts of the East,
I’m waiting for you to arrive,
I’m waiting,
I’m waiting.
