Kuraikurai Lyrics English Translation by Majiko
majiko opens with a vulnerable question to the listener. The songwriter describes something black overflowing from within that won’t stop, comparing it to ‘eyes melting onto the asphalt’ (Asphalt oshi tokeru me no you na). She wrestles with the idea that if someone had truly known her, things might have been different, but acknowledges everyone else seems right while she’s left stained and smelling terrible.
Nee nee oshieteHey, hey, tell me,
Kore de hontou ni ii noIs this really okay?
Mou modosenaiI can’t go back anymore,
Shiro o kabutte mitemoeven if I try to cover it in white.
Kitanaku kawaiteIt dries up so dirty,
Parapara to ochite iku dakeand just falls apart, piece by piece.
Aa sokora juu itaiAh, it hurts everywhere.
Asphalt oshi tokeru me no you naLike eyes melting onto the asphalt,
Kuroi nanika ga boku kara afurete tomaranaisomething black is overflowing from me, and it won’t stop.
Yasashii hito ga sotto fureta bashoThe places where kind people gently touched me,
Hidoi nioi shimitsuite torenaia terrible smell is stained into them and won’t come out.
Boku o chanto shitte kuretannara kitto tanoshii no niIf you had truly known me, I’m sure it would’ve been fun.
Dakedo shou ga nai minna tadashiiBut it can’t be helped, everyone is right.
Dare no sei ni mo dekikko nai naI can’t even blame it on anyone else.
Kimi wa e ga tokui na you niJust like how you are good at drawing,
Boku wa kore ga tokui dattan da karathis is what I was good at.
Mujaki na mamaRemaining innocent,
Hanabira o mushitta shiranu hanaI plucked the petals of an unknown flower.
Shirokute kirei to wa mou daremo omowanaiNo one thinks it’s white and beautiful anymore.
Yasashii boku de aritakattaI wanted to be a kind person.
Zurui kara boku ni dake nai no waIt’s unfair that I’m the only one who doesn’t have it.
Nee oshieteHey, tell me,
Kore de hontou ni ii nois this really okay?
Mou modosenaiI can’t go back anymore,
Boku nari ni ganbattan dabecause I tried my best in my own way.
Aa nandatte nandatteAh, no matter what, no matter what,
Kansha o shinakyaI have to be grateful.
Kachi no aru itamiThis valuable pain,
Zeitaku da zeitaku dait’s a luxury, it’s a luxury.
Aa sokora juu itaiAh, it hurts everywhere.

Kuroi nanika ga boku kara afurete tomaranaisomething black is overflowing from me, and it won’t stop.
Yasashii hito ga sotto fureta bashoThe places where kind people gently touched me,
Hidoi nioi shimitsuite torenaia terrible smell is stained into them and won’t come out.
