ZIGZO - Shoudou (english translation)

Finally made an attempt at translating this. It's probably not 100% accurate, but I think the gist of it is there.



衝動 / Impulse

Music and Lyrics: Tetsu Takano

My fingertips that still haven’t gotten stained yet,
They wanted everything and anything
My toes that feel cramped and rigid,
Can’t go anywhere

A cheap guitar
Borrowed words
The you I love, and the me I hate
That’s all I can remember

The impulse, piercing through*
A faraway figure from a dream
Take me with you

Still thirsting for more, my fingertips were only longing for one thing
A bored-looking companion
Why don’t we go somewhere?

Together, let’s go smash something into tiny pieces
The big sky in that little town,
It’s still all I can remember

It’s as if the wind from that time is blowing again
It’s calling again
And there’s a faint scent of rain in the air

It’s as if the wind from that time is blowing again
It’s calling again
It’s come back to life

The impulse, piercing through*
A faraway figure from a dream
Take me with you.

Notes:
*I’m not sure how to word this, tbh

衝動 / Shoudou

Mada yogoretenai yubisaki ga
Nanimokamo hoshigatteta
Kyuukutsu-sou na tsumasaki ga
Doko e mo ikenai to

Yasumono no GITAA karimono no kotoba
Daisuki na kimi to daikirai na jibun
Oboete iru no wa tada sore dake

Shoudou tsukinukeru hou e
Harukakanata yume no sugata ore o tsureteitte kure

Tada kawaite iru yubisaki ga
Tatta hitotsu hoshigatteta
Taikutsu-sou na tomodachi yo
Dokoka e ikanai ka

Issho ni nanika konagona ni kowasou
Chiisa na machi no ooki na sora o
Oboete iru no wa mada kore dake

Choudo ano toki no kaze ga
Mata fuiteru
Mata yonderu
Kasuka ni ame no nioi

Choudo ano toki no kaze ga
Mata fuiteru
Mata yonderu
Yomigaeru

Shoudou tsukinukeru hou e
Harukakanata yume no sugata
Ore o tsureteitte kure.
