Mori Calliope - Sepia Lyrics

[Romanized:]

Gokai sun na yo kon’na kokkeina
Satto sugisaru Mainichi eburidei
Another prisoner of fate no one could fake out
Stay awake now, you know you wanna fire away
Now, there’s no question where the fault lies
These days I struggle just to empathize
Mō modoranai tte wakatte iru ndarou

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed role
(Yah) And feed this bleeding egotistical soul
(Yah) Before you know it, it’s the moment you’ve lost all control

Tōki hi no yume o miru tabi
Umareta imi o kangaete shimau no
A~a, aa utsukushī aoi hibida na
Kono-me ni yakitsukete okou ka na
Mōsukoshi tsuyoku naranaito na

(Uh) mi bunbusōō no shitto ni nureta
Chotto tarinai ekusutashī
Gokai mo hodokenai mama watashi-jin o kizutsukete
Hitotsubu no sai sura nai wa
Korogari ochita jigorosai
Anata no ai ni kidzukenai mama

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed heart
(Yah) Why keep me breathing while it’s falling apart?
(Yah) dō ka kamisama oshiete kuremasu ka

Kotobasukuna ni anata sasagu
Ima ni kiete shimai-sōna kono inochi o
A~a, aa itooshī sepia-iro shita
Naniyori daijina kono keshiki o
Mōsukoshi mite itai yo na

I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The angels on my shoulder still cannot agree
If I was somebody else, could I get everything?
I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The devils on my shoulder never let me be
Obsessing over tomorrows that I’ll never see
Somebody save me, my world is caving in
‘Cause I thought I deserved it all for free (Hey)

Tōki hi no yume o miru tabi
Umareta imi o kangaete shimau no
A~a, aa utsukushī aoi hibida na
Kono-me ni yakitsukete okou ka na
Mōsukoshi tsuyoku naranaito na

[Japanese:]

誤解すんなよ こんな滑稽な
サッと過ぎ去る毎日 エブリデイ
Another prisoner of fate no one could fake out
Stay awake now, you know you wanna fire away
Now, there’s no question where the fault lies
These days I struggle just to empathize
もう戻らないって分かっているんだろう

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed role
(Yah) And feed this bleeding egotistical soul
(Yah) Before you know it, it’s the moment you’ve lost all control

遠き日の夢を見るたび
生まれた意味を考えてしまうの
あぁ、嗚呼 美しい蒼い日々だな
この目に焼き付けておこうかな
もう少し強くならないとな

(Uh) 身分不相応の嫉妬に塗れた
ちょっと足りないエクスタシー
誤解も解けないまま私 人を傷つけて
一粒の才すらないわ
転がり落ちたジゴロサイ
貴方の愛に気付けないまま

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed heart
(Yah) Why keep me breathing while it’s falling apart?
(Yah) どうか神様 教えてくれますか

言葉少なに貴方捧ぐ
今に消えてしまいそうなこの命を
あぁ、嗚呼 愛おしいセピア色した
何より大事なこの景色を
もう少し見ていたいよな

I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The angels on my shoulder still cannot agree
If I was somebody else, could I get everything?
I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The devils on my shoulder never let me be
Obsessing over tomorrows that I’ll never see
Somebody save me, my world is caving in
‘Cause I thought I deserved it all for free (Hey)

遠き日の夢を見るたび
生まれた意味を考えてしまうの
あぁ、嗚呼 美しい蒼い日々だな
この目に焼き付けておこうかな
もう少し強くならないとな

[English translation:]

Don’t misunderstand, it’s laughable
How time flashes by everyday
Another prisoner of fate no one could fake out
Stay awake now, you know you wanna fire away
Now there’s no question where the fault lies
These days I struggle just to empathize
There’s no going back, and you know it

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed role
(Yah) And feed this bleeding egotistical soul
(Yah) Before you know it, it’s the moment you’ve lost all control

Every time I dream of days gone by
I wonder why I came to be
Ah, such beautiful, youthful days
I should burn their images into my mind
But, I’d have to be a little stronger first

(Uh) Drippin’ in jealousy, that’s a bit too daring
An ecstasy, that’s just a little bit lacking
I hurt somebody without ever opening my eyes
But there’s no talent here, it’s clear to see
The rigged rice falls and rolls
Before I even notice your love and affection

(Yah) Cast a blessing on my cursed heart
(Yah) Why keep me breathing while it’s falling apart?
(Yah) Pray, tell me, God

I give it to you silently
My life that’s about to burn out
Ah, and these sepia-toned sights
Most precious of all
That I wish I could watch some more

I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The angels on my shoulder still cannot agree
If I was somebody else, could I get everything?
I’m always gonna be my own worst enemy
Everything I ever wanted was in front of me
The devils on my shoulder never let me be
Obsessing over tomorrows that I’ll never see
Somebody save me, my world is caving in
‘Cause I thought I deserved it all for free (Hey!)

Every time I dream of days gone by
I wonder why I came to be
Ah, such beautiful, youthful days
I should burn their images into my mind
But, I’d have to be a little stronger first
