Asian Kung-fu Generation - Rewrite lyrics

kishin da omoi o hakidashitai no wa

sonzai no shoumei ga hoka ni nai kara

tsukan da hazu no boku no mirai wa

"songen" to "jiyuu" de nujun shiteru yo

yugan da zanzou o keshi saritai no wa

jibun no genkai o soko ni miru kara

jiishiki kajou na boku no mado ni wa

kyonen no CALENDAR, hidzuke ga nai yo

keshite REWRITE shite

kudaranai chou gensou

wasurarenu sonzai kan o

kishikaisei

REWRITE shite

imi no nai mousou mo

kimi o nasu dendouryoku

zenshin zenrei o kure yo

mebaete ta kanjou kitte kuyan de

shosen tada bonyou shitte naite

kusatta kokoro o,

usugitanai uso o

keshite REWRITE shite

kudaranai chou gensou

wasurarenu sonzai kan o

kishikaisei

REWRITE shite

imi no nai mousou mo

kimi o nasu dendouryoku

zenshin zenrei o kure yo

*Translations:

Wanting to spit out the jarred thoughts is

Because there's no other proof of my existence

My future that I should've grabbed hold is

Conflicting between "dignity" and "freedom"

Wanting to erase the distorted afterimage is

Because I'll see my limit over there

In the window of the excessively self-conscious me

There are no dates in last year's calendarErase and rewrite

The pointless ultra-fantasy

Revive

The unforgettable sense of being

Rewrite

The meaningless imagination

The driving force that creates you

Give it your whole body and soulAfter cutting my feelings that grew, I regret

After realizing that after all, I'm just a mediocrity, I cry

A depressed heart

A dirty lie

Erase and rewrite

The pointless ultra-fantasy

Revive

The unforgettable sense of being

Rewrite

The meaningless imagination

The driving force that creates you

Give it your whole body and soul*
