The English translation I did is kind of sketchy. I'm fairly certain that what I have for at least the first line I starred is very wrong. If anyone has a correction for that, or any of the other lines, it would be greatly appreciated.
東京city / Tokyo city
Music and Lyrics: Sone Ichirou
You started to lose your way on the path,
So you started to become too cautious,
And things aren't going well, are they?
You’re listening to the sound of cars,
Being poisoned by exhaust fumes,
But every day, you’re giving your all
Shining brighter than the stars up in the sky in a corner of this city
In Tokyo,
On the Tokyo Expressway,
If it feels like the city lights are blocking your view,
Don’t say a word
I’ll light up your days
Because you can hold on tight to this song
I can see the ruins of the star I looked up at when I was a child
The sky from that time has disappeared, hasn’t it?
One by one, we’re each going to settle on our way of life
You will too
You will too
Even though it’s cruel, time passes by,
That crowd of people will be left behind
I don't think there's any sort of deadline when you need to throw your dreams away*
In Tokyo,
On the Tokyo Expressway,
If it feels like the city lights are blocking your view,
Don’t say a word
I’ll light up your days
Because you can hold on tight to this song
In Tokyo,
On the Tokyo Expressway,
This burning emotion will light up your tomorrow
So don’t say a word
I’ll be supporting you from the bottom of my heart
While you’re in Tokyo City**
Notes:
*I’m fairly certain that this is very wrong
**It just says “Tokyo City”, but I assume this is what is being implied?
