AGONY

Romaji of the song AGONY from the album STACKED RUBBISH by the GazettE.

OK, well it’s not really romaji.  The whole song is originally written in English, minus some nonsense scatting.

Translator's Notes
  • Lyrics originally sung in English are in italics , and words or phrases I felt were implied are in [brackets] in the translation.
  • I also (usually) put repeats of chorus/verses/stanzas in [brackets] if they’re not written that way in the original lyrics for ease of singing along.
  • If he writes a word in the lyrics but doesn’t sing it, I put it in light grey to make it easier to skip when singing along.
  • I usually romajize katakana characters in CAPITALS, and keep punctuation and line spacing as close to the original booklet as possible. If you see me putting spaces before punctuation at the end of a sentence or writing things in mixed-case capitals, that’s because it’s how it was in the booklet.
  • Any comments I had during the romajization/translation process will be included as footnotes so as not to disturb the flow of the song. They’re not required reading, but Ruki does some pretty nifty things with his lyrics/kanji choices, or sometimes there’s further explanations about words or phrases in there.

AGONY: Romaji

You said to me so, “Please love until dying…”
For what do you hope to me? Is it the hopeless last scene?
Answer…, I don’t want to die.
DA DON VIDIVI DA DON AGAIN DA DON VIDIVI DA DON
The scream of insomnia. Is the next my turn?
What is a lethal weapon?

Oh shit! It was done too much.
[Oh shit! Oh] Pardon me…,
[Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit!] Don’t come near me.
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Oh Pardon me…,
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit!]

Did you really love me heartily ? Can you really call that love ?
Answer…, I don’t want to die.
DA DON VIDIVI DA DON again DA DON VIDIVI DA DON
The scream of insomnia. Is the next turn my turn ? [Yeah.]

[Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Oh Pardon me…,
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Don’t come near me.
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Oh Pardon me…,
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit!]

Lethal weapon is lip. Your affection rape me.

Let’s sing to you again.
This is the last copulation.
Why can’t you understand it ?
Can’t you hear my shout ?
Again…, Until hate goes away.
Don’t touch me ! Don’t touch heart ! Don’t show that face !
I don’t want to die.

[Did you really love me heartily ? Can you really call that love ?
Answer…, I don’t want to die.
DA DON VIDIVI DA DON again DA DON VIDIVI DA DON
The scream of insomnia. Is the next turn my turn? Yeah.]

[Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Oh Pardon me…,
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Don’t come near me.
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit! Oh Pardon me…,
Oh shit! It was done too much.
Oh shit!]

[Again…, Until hate goes away.]

[Let’s sing to you again.
This is the last copulation.
Why can’t you understand it ?
Can’t you hear my shout ?
Again…, Until hate goes away.
Don’t touch me ! Don’t touch heart ! Don’t show that face !
I don’t want to die.]

[Again…,]

This is the last copulation.
Why can’t you understand it ?
Can’t you hear my shout ?
Again…, Until hate goes away.
Don’t touch me ! Don’t touch heart ! Don’t show that face !
I don’t want to die.
