A.M.D.K.J. (Amidakuji; Ghost Leg)
Lyrics: RINA ~ Music & Arrangement: MAMI

Harimegurasareta kiseisen
Binkan ni narisugita bukimi na machi wa
Gensou ga unda muhouchitai
Me wo sorashiteru hito bakari

Sono ki ni natte tameshite minatte
Bikashinaide genjitsu wo shitte
Kuso majime ni yatterannai hi mo aru yo
Toki ni, kamidanomi

Unmei no amidakuji norukasoruka no hanashi
Unmei no amidakuji yubi de nazotte

Saa, motto fukaku made
Sono me de mite furete
Wagamonogao ga habikoru
Kono sekai ni iyakegasasu yo
Shinjitsu wa mushoku toumei de
Sukoshi dake tsumetai

Te no naru hou e yottoide
Motto ii koto shiyou yo
Onaji aho nara odoranya sonson
Aa mou yamitsuki ni natteru

Seiron bakka hakisutetenaide
Korikatamatta atama wo hiyashite
Jidaiokure no samui B-kyuu hyouronka-tachi ni
Oshioki wo

Unmei no amidakuji sui mo amai mo watashi
Unmei no amidakuji sotto hiraite

Saa, mune ni tojikometa
Sono omoi tokihanate
Yosoku fukanou na ashita ga kowai no wa
Kimi dake ja nai
Ai nante jiyuujizai ni
Moete kiete yuku

Saa, motto fukaku made
Sono me de mite furete
Wagamonogao ga habikoru
Kono sekai ni iyakegasasu yo
Shinjitsu wa mushoku toumei de
Sukoshi dake tsumetai

English Translation

Bound by restrictive lines
This overly sensitive, ominous town
A lawless place born of illusion
People turn back and look away

Get on your feet and try it out
Know the truth without romanticizing it
Sometimes you just can't be so serious
Sometimes you just have to pray

Amidakuji of fate - It's either all or nothing
Amidakuji of fate - Trace it with your finger

There, ever deeper
See it yourself and touch it
I'm sick of this world
Where everyone acts so selfish
The truth is colorless and transparent
And just a little cold

Get closer to the sound of clapping
And let's do even better things
We're all fools here, so why not dance?
Ah, I'm already addicted

Don't just spit out the right answers
Cool your stiffened head
Punish those old-fashioned, cold
B-grade critics

Amidakuji of fate - Both the sour and the sweet are me
Amidakuji of fate - Open it gently

Now, set free
Those feelings trapped in your heart
You're not the only one who's afraid
Of an unpredictable tomorrrow
Love burns and disappears
Freely

There, ever deeper
See it yourself and touch it
I'm sick of this world
Where everyone acts so selfish
The truth is colorless and transparent
And just a little cold

Wow that was quick Jade, thanks

fast as always .clap. thank you Jade!

That was fast... Thanks so much!

Such beautiful Japanese poetry that uses the words as broad strokes to paint a picture
that says so much more than the words ever could say by themselves.

And it ROCKS!
