Asian Kung-fu Generation Sayonara Lost Generation
"Have a dream for your future", such an irresponsible line That dream swelled, then burst in 1986
"We have nothing" That is to say "We are the Lost Generation" Please don't forget We are still here, alive and breathing
Investors said "This recession should bottom out" We surely didn't know where we would be in 2010
We have nothing If that is so, then so it is Don't hang your head, let's break out of this prison
You say "The world is dark, isn't it?" and it makes me sad Please don't say to me "Life is hard, isn't it?" These times that you complain about, let's end it with us
A line like "Your dreams come true" sounds like a hollow voice Even though I want to feel hope in living in the present
It isn't a dream, but reality Pinch your cheek And open your eyes, let's get out of this prison
You say "The world is dark, isn't it?" and it makes me sad Please don't say to me "Life is hard, isn't it?" These times that you complain about, let's end it with us
Unknowingly shut into a prison by a word in our mind It seems we are falling deeper into our self-consciousness and only loving ourselves Don't pretend to be God, searching for yourself in the deep, dark marsh Open your window, every road leads to everywhere
I have nothing Ah... and there is nothing That's right, it is reality Someday, even if everything disappears, I want to see you still
You say "The world is dark, isn't it?" and it makes me sad Please don't say to me "Life is hard, isn't it?" These times that you complain about, let's end it today
Are you satisfied? If you didn't get enough Tell me
