Libra
So. I went on this random spree of looking up some song lyrics translations. I have a newfound respect for Mucc, or more specifically, their song Libra. (Not to mention I reaffirmed my distaste for DirenGrey. Their lyrics are disgusting.)
Anyway. Read the lyrics for "Libra"
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
With your dominant arm, you grab the reality.
With your other arm, you uphold the morality.
You light up the love deep in your heart,
You weigh things up with the scale inside your head.
Inside the dense and thick darkness
You hide your own shadow.
The sound made by the abacus echoes
World! (Please) Stop!
In this world where feelings are only a hinderance
Shoot and kill me!
Who is using the scale?
Who is using the abacus?
Who is playing the Hamelin flute?
Who is the boy who cried wolf?
Rather than caring about these things,
Right now, I love you!
Flower! now, in full bloom
Please teach/tell me
The meaning of living right here, right now.
The meaning of tomorrow's coming.
With your dominant arm, you have desire.
With your other arm, you hide immorality.
If you could shut love away deep inside your heart,
The saint in your head will laugh.
The brave flower that grows in the vacant lot
Surrounded by the towering buildings that take away the (sun) light rays.
People's eyes are glared by these buildings.
Soon, the flower stopped breathing.
The wind was only gently caressing,
Only the wind was being gentle.
The thing about living, that is
Like wondering in the darkness, not able to see a thing.
The thing about dying, that, is also darkness.
"The end" is no way "the beginning".
That's why (we need to) light up the darkness now
Burn up our life/soul as much as we can.
(after) Releasing the radiance
The proof of life can not wear out, we would become strong.
Flower! now, in full bloom
You had told/taught me
The meaning of living right here, right now.
The meaning of tomorrow's coming.
I am going to die some day
What can Ido for you
Rays of light shine on from the rising sun
Eternally, in this world.

See? Those lyrics are so ... dramatic and beautifully poetic. I also really like the video. (Go watch it if you're interested. :D)
Don't ask my why I find this song so inspirational. I have no idea. When I watch the video or hear the song I just get this wonderful impression of something epic.
I think I may have finally lost it. Becoming obsessed with lyrics. Sigh.
Maybe thats what happens when you're arbeitslos. Lol, thats probably the only German word I remember. I'm gonna have to start on that again. Anyway. Just wanted to share this song. Despite the fact no one... really cares. Lol YAY XD
