Twitter Translations: Suck a Stew Dry / THURSDAY'S YOUTH / yorunitokeru.

Again, these are old, just splitting them out of my random Tweet translations post since I've done quite a few about this group of bands and it's getting long.

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/499564925052669952
Shinoyama Kosei: I like being called "cute".

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/517717953437921280
Fuse Tatsuaki: Note: The person doing the twin vocals in Suck a Stew Dry's "Katakana Talk" isn't me, it's Hajio-san.
https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/517719193899130880
Fuse: Because you can hear me sing lead vocals in yorunitokeru.

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/518424285556137984
Fuse: There is a band that I play guitar and sing lead vocals in called "yorunitokeru" (explaining for those that don't know)
I get asked "Where can I buy your music?" sometimes by visitors, so I'm just letting you know.
You can get it from here by mail order:
http://www.yorunitokeru.com/store/

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/518461531327959040
Shinoyama: Now that I've fractured my leg, I keep thinking about how tough this would have been if I lived alone and didn't have friends in the neighborhood.

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/518435121066565633
Fuse: Which reminds me, I forgot to mention it during my self-introduction in the MC. I'm Suck a Stew Dry's guitarist and MC*, Fuse Tatsuaki. Nice to meet you.
^*Fuse makes fun of Shinoyama a lot for not being good at doing the band's MCs, since it's usually the vocalist's responsibility

https://twitter.com/hajio_kikuchi/status/519303408541368321
Hajio Kikuchi: The season where we can wear light sweaters has come! Yes!

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/532022200845348867
Fuse: From Wikipedia: Hajio Kikuchi (Born Jan. 3, 1987 (27 years old)) - guitar, chorus
I don't know who wrote that, but I laughed so hard.
https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/532022503384698882
Fuse: Because Hajio-san recently turned 31. He's five years older than me*...Ah, that was funny.

^*Fuse and Hajio entered university in the same year, so people sometimes assume they're the same age.

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/537494219846189056
Shinoyama: This was written in a review of "Jibun Senki": "They lost what made them good in their indie era". But we're still an indie band now...lol

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/642710687634948098
Fuse: In my 27th year I'm trying my best to:
-Write a lead track for Suck a Stew Dry
-Get nationwide distribution for yorunitokeru
Everyone, please lend me your support and please treat me well.
(⌒▽⌒)

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/708037589119336448
Shinoyama: When a good looking guy says he's not attractive, people just laugh it off, but when I say it it seems to really persuade people and it's like they go "Aa... you're right."

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/710684811984297984
Shinoyama: It's interesting that there already seem to be more comments from overseas than usual. Come on, foreigners!

^*He's talking about on Youtube for their new video for GOEMON

https://twitter.com/hajio_kikuchi/status/763365576915898368
Hajio: Competing with good-looking guys goes nowhere, so it's better to just become friends.

^*This was after their drummer posted some handsome-looking pictures of himself in a yukata XD

Suck a Stew Dry - Shitsuren, shitsuren. (english translation)

I’m assuming that this is from a girl’s perspective, since he’s using “atashi”.

失恋、失恋。/ Heartbreak, heartbreak.*

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

It was almost always me contacting you.
And I was almost always told that you were busy.
You almost always had that same bored expression on your face.
But that was also somehow endearing to me.

I didn’t expect things to stay like this forever.
But then you suddenly said “Goodbye”.

I kind of saw it coming, but**
Actually being told that still hurts.
Thank you for loving someone like me until now.
I kind of saw it coming, but
Actually being told that still hurts.
Since one day I’ll eventually be able to forget,
Until then, please treat me well, heartbreak, heartbreak.

It was almost always me contacting you.
And I was almost always told that you were busy.
Every time, you said “I can’t meet you” again. And again “I can’t come.”
In those days, I wanted to see you but I couldn’t.
But somehow, I still thought “That’s also part of love.”

I kind of saw it coming, but**
Actually being told that still hurts.
Thank you for loving someone like me until now.
I kind of saw it coming, but
Actually being told that still hurts.
Since one day I’ll eventually be able to forget,
Until then, please treat me well, heartbreak, heartbreak.

“See you, let’s meet again.”
With a “let’s meet again”, it’s bye-bye
“See you, let’s meet again.”
With a “let’s meet again”, it’s bye-bye
“See you, let’s meet again.”
With a “let’s meet again”, it’s bye-bye
“See you, let’s meet again.”

“…I wish you happiness in the future.”

I kind of saw it coming, but**
Actually being told that still hurts.
Thank you for loving someone like me until now.
I kind of saw it coming, but
Actually being told that still hurts.
Since one day I’ll eventually be able to forget,
Until then, please treat me well, heartbreak, heartbreak.

Heartbreak, heartbreak.
Heartbreak, heartbreak.
Heartbreak, heartbreak.

“The truth is, I didn’t really love you.”
“The truth is, I didn’t really love you.”
I’m just kidding, that’s a lie.

Notes:
*Would probably be a bit more accurate to say “unrequited love”, but “unrequited love, unrequited love” sounds rather awkward.
**Not sure about this line

Suck a Stew Dry - Wake Me Up (english translation)



ウェイクミーアップ / Wake Me Up

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

The me I imagined becoming in the future
And the person that I’ve somehow become today
No matter how I try to layer them on top of each other,
I can’t become who I wanted to be
No matter how I compare them,
I still just end up making myself sad

However,

If I keep living,
Obviously, I can only keep being myself
I always seem to end up hating myself,
But, even so,
If one day I find something to live for,
If one day I find something that’s precious to me,
Even if I’m still a hopeless mess,
I wonder if I can learn to love myself

Wake me, wake me up

I wonder what the person I wanted to become would say if he saw me now?
No matter what anyone says to me,
No matter how many times I’m made fun of,
I can’t stop being myself,
And I can’t become anyone else

After all,

If I keep living,
Obviously, I can only keep being myself
I’ve always ended up wanting to run away,
But, even so,
If one day I find something to live for,
If one day I find something that’s precious to me,
Even if I’m still a hopeless mess,
I wonder if I can learn to love myself

Because I still have almost nothing in my hands,
There are so many things that I can grab hold of
I won’t be able to reach all of them, but
It’s not like I can’t reach any of them, right?

Even if I end up hating myself and wanting to run away,
If one day I find something to live for,
If one day I find something that’s precious to me,
Even if I’m still a hopeless mess,
I wonder if I’ll be able to love myself

If I keep living,
I can only be myself, I’m incapable of becoming anyone else
And that won’t change
But morning will come
This swirling mess of lies and truth,
And these anxious, directionless days
And even my helpless self
I wonder if one day I’ll learn to love them

Wake me, wake me up
It’d be great if you could
Wake me, wake me up
It’d be great if you could

Suck a Stew Dry - Bokura no jibun sensou (english translation)

Finally done the English for this. There are a few lines that might be a bit off, but I think the message of this song is pretty clear. After seeing the confidence Kosei has in the video for this song versus some of their earlier work, it really does seem like something that he's taken to heart.



僕らの自分戦争 / Our Internal War

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

The clothes that I’m wearing are things that were made by someone else
The thoughts that I’m struck with are ideas that someone else has had before

I turn all the originality I can summon up into a weapon
And face my invisible enemies
Over and over, I brandish it in front of them

How long will this internal war* continue?
What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape?
Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone**
When I can’t grab hold of anything like this, I wonder who exactly I want to become

The road that I should set my sights on is a path that was made by someone else
Even the wall that I’m fighting against is a wall that someone else has already passed over before me

Even the best answer I’ve ever come up with – one that I’ve searched for with all my might
Was met with comments like “Isn’t that idea played out?” from people I don’t know***

So, what should I do?

How long will this internal war continue?
What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape?
Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone
When I can’t grab hold of anything like this, I wonder who exactly I want to become

How long will this internal war continue?
What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape?
Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone
But I’m me, this is how I am,
And I can't become anyone else

Let’s continue our internal war like this
They might not be enough to dazzle anyone else****
But I hope we can find our answers someday

I’ve gotta head out on the 8 o’clock train
I’ve gotta head out on the 8 o’clock train

Notes:
*as in a war between a person and their self
**meaning he’ll be dead and out of time
***I'm really not sure about this line
****Lit. more like “They might not be enough to make people say “I don’t believe it!”

Suck a Stew Dry - Katakana Talk (english translation)

I thought the lyrics for this song sounded a little different from the rest of their stuff. Turns out it was written by Hajio, which explains a lot. Apparently that's also Hajio singing the "guruguru meguru..." part.

カタカナトーク / Katakana Talk

Music and Lyrics: Hajio Kikuchi

Starting to come alive
Even though summer is starting to come alive
What am I doing?
Starting to come alive
Even though the night is starting to come alive
Where am I going?

Going round and round and round, I’m fine with it
I’m getting dizzy, where are we going?

”...You okay?”

I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
This kind of thing is my specialty, after all
If it’s this week, I think I can get through it
I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
I can’t seem to get a break from this
It seems like I never make it in time*

I’ve put everything in order
I’ve put everything in order, but what are you doing?
I’ve straightened everything up
I’ve straightened everything up here, but
Where are you going?

Going round and round and round, I’m fine with it
I’m getting dizzy, where are we going?

“Ah ah ah...”

I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
This kind of thing is my specialty, after all
If it’s this week, I think I can get through it
I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
I can’t seem to get a break from this
It seems like I never make it in time*

Katakana talk, whose is it now?
Katakana talk, is it my specialty now?
Katakana talk, whose is it now?
Katakana talk, is it my specialty now?

1, 2, 3, 4!

”...You okay?”

I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
This kind of thing is my specialty, after all
If it’s this week, I think I can get through it
I seem to be okay for now
My head hurts, but I feel like I can endure it
I can’t seem to get a break from this
It seems like I never make it in time*

I need to get there in time**

Notes:

Suck a Stew Dry - I Don't Love You (english translation)

I'm not too sure about this one. There are a few lines that I think are probably way off. 



アイドントラブユー / I Don’t Love You

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

I thought that when I hit twenty I’d be able to sound satisfied talking about love
But nothing has really changed from that time,
Even though I’ve become an adult
Girls around twenty get worked up easily when it comes to things like emotions*
But even so, this year I’m 26

I can hear a voice saying**

“Darling, I love you. I love you, darling.”
“Darling, I need you. I need you, darling.”
“Darling, I miss you. I miss you, darling.”
“Darling, I love you…”

I have nothing, but I don’t need anything
I’m a person that gets emotional really easily***
I don’t really know why I’m like this, but I want to be here****

“I don’t love you” (I love you)
“I don’t need you” (I need you)
“I don’t miss you” (I miss you)
“Sorry baby”

“I don’t love you” (I love you)
“I don’t need you” (I need you)
“I don’t miss you” (I miss you)
“Sorry baby”

The things I wanted to say that were always just floating in the air disappear
In my garbage can-like room
I don’t know what to do at times like this*****
The voice of my gloomy heart keeps nagging at me
Even if I close my eyes, I can’t sleep

I can hear a voice saying

“Darling, I love you. I love you, darling.”
“Darling, I need you. I need you, darling.”
“Darling, I miss you. I miss you, darling.”
“Darling, I love you…”

“I don’t love you” (I love you)
“I don’t need you” (I need you)
“I don’t miss you” (I miss you)
“Sorry baby”

“I don’t love you” (I love you)
“I don’t need you” (I need you)
“I don’t miss you” (I miss you)
“Sorry baby”

Suck a Stew Dry - Ni-ji Ni-fun (english translation)

I think this turned out decent, since it seems to line up with the pictures in the PV.



二時二分 / 2:02

Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

There’s no individuality, I sigh
Just worthless people
I tried to think about why that is
But I don’t really understand
I hate that fake girl
In my head, I killed her
Around this time, I’m in my room, leisurely watching a movie and crying

It’s a struggle of identity
And after all, everyone is a follower
So no one wants to search for their self
The struggle continues

I say I want individuality
But there are only worthless people
I smear medicine on my face
I go out wearing a mask
Turning my boredom and lethargy into a weapon, I laugh
“Let’s meet again at Shimokitazawa”
The 2-3-2-1 melody is a bad influence on me*

It’s a struggle of identity
And after all, everyone is a follower
So no one wants to search for their self
The struggle continues

The hands of the clock stop
I don’t want to give a meaning to it
Ah, it’s already corrupting me as well

Notes:
*I don’t know what this means, to be perfectly honest

Suck a Stew Dry - Payment (english translation)

A few lines of this might be wrong, but I think it's pretty easy to understand what's going on, for the most part.

Payment

Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

I’m on my hands and knees over three tatami mats
I’m not doing anything, and I don’t want to do anything either
Tokyo is so big, isn’t it?
I already don’t feel like going outside

Even though I’m not moving,
Somehow I start wanting food
People are full of desires*
If you can’t live, I wonder if you’re still a living thing?**

Ah, I guess I can’t live without working
Ah, I guess I can’t live without working

There is my payment.
I have to make this payment.
There is my payment.

I’m on my hands and knees in Tokyo
I’m not doing anything, and I don’t want to do anything either
Three tatami mats is so big, isn’t it?
I’m living, and that’s enough

Ah, I guess I can’t live without working
Ah, I guess I can’t live without working

There is my payment.
I have to make this payment.
There is my payment.

Is it okay to make just living my goal?
Is it okay to go on just thinking about living?

There is my payment.
I have to make this payment.
There is my payment.

I have to pay

Notes:
*Not confident about this line at all. I'm pretty sure that it's wrong, but I don't know how else to read it.
**Whenever it says “live” from this point on, I wonder if the intended meaning is more like “make a living”.
Like, “Is it okay to go on just thinking about making a living and nothing else?”

Payment

Suck a Stew Dry - Kasa (english translation)

I'm not sure about this one at all. There are probably a bunch of mistakes. 



傘 / Umbrella

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

I want to see you
Oh, I want to die
But I can’t meet you
You’re not here, not here, but I still can’t die,*
No matter how many tens of thousands of years pass, this “end of the world” continues on
I’ll always be waiting underneath**

I wonder if I’m being kept alive by music
Or if I’m nesting in literature***
Jokes don’t get through to me either, and yet I’m smiling****
I’m being invaded by music or something
Being assaulted by literature
People too obsessed with aesthetics interact with me

I walked between the buildings
And the wind broke my umbrella

I want to see you
Oh, I want to die
But I can’t meet you
You’re not here, not here, but I still can’t die,
No matter how many tens of thousands of years pass, this “end of the world” continues on
I’ll always be waiting underneath

The wind destroyed my umbrella
You’re lying beside someone else
The rain wet my shoulders
You’re somewhere under a roof

Goodbye

I want to see you
Oh, I want to die
If I could see you one more time,
If I could just meet you again and again,
But, oh, I can’t meet you
You’re not here, not here, but I still can’t die,
No matter how many tens of thousands of years pass, no matter how many millions of years pass, always,
Will I be able to keep living on until the day I can meet you again?
I’ll always be waiting underneath
Surely, tomorrow, this umbrella will still be here

Surely, tomorrow, this umbrella will still be here

Notes:
*,***,**** Really not sure about these
** I assume he means he'll be waiting beneath the umbrella, because walking under an umbrella is a special thing for couples to do in Japan and putting two names under an umbrella is like putting them in a heart, like a "John + Jane 4 Ever" sort of thing.

Suck a Stew Dry - Normalism (english translation)

It's always a lovely surprise when a band posts lyrics on their website.

The English translation I did probably isn't 100% accurate, but I think most of it isn't too bad.



Normalism

Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

At best, they’re just things that won’t come true
That’s why I’m going to forget about my wishes in advance
At best, they’re just things that are unreachable
That’s why I want to hurry up and stop trying to do things that are too much for me

“Where are you?” that person sings
Even if I was somewhere else*
Nothing would change
What I ended up thinking was
“I want to be by your side”
Because we chose to end it**
Because we chose to end it

If I live thinking of only what I can see in order to not be normal,***
What kind of person am I?
I already don’t know anymore
I wonder if loving normally is okay?
I wonder if falling in love normally is okay?
Is it okay if I pray for your happiness as well?

At best, I think I’m an empty person
I think, except for thinking about you, I’m empty
I think I’m a person without any significant charms
That’s why I want to hurry up and stop trying to do things that are too much for me

The truth is something like “Give me one more chance”****
I could say that I don’t want to tell you that, but it would be a lie
What I ended up thinking was
“I want to be by your side”
Because we chose to end it
Because we chose to end it

Even if I get good at living thinking of only what I can see*****
I feel like I’m already becoming unable to understand you
Because I still can’t seem to let go
Because I still can’t seem to get rid of you
Is it okay if I pray for your happiness as well?

I’ll hold onto the kindness you gave me
It feels like one day, that kindness will become one with my song
Wouldn’t that be nice?

That’s why, I want to forget what I’ve been wishing for

If I live thinking of only what I can see in order to not be normal,
What kind of person am I?
I already don’t know anymore
I wonder if loving normally is okay?
I wonder if falling in love normally is okay?
Is it okay if I pray for your happiness as well?

I suddenly fell in love with you, and suddenly you became precious to me
Those kinds of feelings too, are all mine
Only mine
Because I still can’t seem to let go
Because I still can’t seem to get rid of you
Is it okay if I pray for your happiness as well?

When June comes again, I’ll go to look for that ferris wheel
When June comes again, I’ll go to look for that ferris wheel

Normalism

Notes:
** - Could also be "because you decided it to end it"?
*** - This one is the line I have the least confidence in. I'm really not sure if this is anywhere near correct.
**** = lit. "One more time"
*,***** - These lines might be a bit sketchy too
