fighting pose (Lyrics)
Music / Lyrics: Fukuyama Masaharu
Translation: vspirit
It’s hard getting any sleep and it ain’t just ‘cos of the weather
………. Negurushisa wa ijo kishono sei dake janai
Life’s like it in fact but just a whole lot muggier
………. Jinseino soramoyo yosoyorimo zutto betatsuiteru
Win or lose I’m just goin’ through each day with my head held high
………. Sonka tokukade ugoku mainichi wo hajitari wa shinaikedo
But there are times I can’t tell
Which part of me is the truth and which is a lie
………. Tokini jibunno naniga kyozode jitsuzoka
………. wakaranaku narunda
If there can be no victory or glory without sufferin’
………. Donna shorimo eikomo mukizujanaito surunara
Darlin’ darlin’ tell me that there’s meanin’
To this bleedin’ heart o’ mine
………. Da-rin da-rin itameta kokoro wa
………. imiga aruto itteyo
But there ain’t no answers
………. Kotae wa nai
So all I can do is just face the truth head on in a fightin’ pose
………. Tada meno maeni aru genjitsuni fighting pose
What’s my religion? Money, dreams, God? Or is it love?
………. Shinjirumono wa kane? yume? kamisama? soretomo ai?
All these and more, which part of me am I tryin’ to hide?
………. Sonosubete wa ittai jibunno nani wo kabauno
I know, I know I can’t win just by stayin’ true to myself
………. Massugusatoka shojikisatoka soredakeja katenakute
So here I am spendin’ many nights lamentin’
All the ties I’ve cut and the innocence I’ve quelled
………. Kirisutetekita hitoya tojikometa mujakisa wo
………. nageku yorumo arunda
Doesn’t matter if no one ever knows of the sweat and tears I shed
………. Nagashita ase wo namida wo shittehoshii wakejanai
Darlin’ darlin’ these arms that hold you close
………. Da-rin da-rin kimiwo daiteita ryoute wa
Have hope and anxiety clenched within both fists waitin’ for a chance
………. Fuanto kitaiwo nigirishimete chansu wo neratteru
Up in arms deep at night in a fightin’ pose
………. Mayonakano fighting pose
If there’s meanin’ behind failure and defeat
………. Donna zasetsumo haibokumo mudajanaito surunara
Darlin’ darlin’ yesterday has fallen
………. Da-rin da-rin taoreta kinoni
So say to it that tomorrow will always come
………. Ashita wa kuruto itteyo
Here’s lookin’ at the man in the mirror
………. Kagamino naka
Barely bracin’ himself in a fightin’ pose
………. Girigiri funbatteru jibunni fighting pose
Up in arms deep at night in a fightin’ pose
………. Mayonakano fighting pose
