I always thought that posting a song lyric or copy-paste some wisdom words onto blog is too melancholic, lame, and should be done only by ABG (no offense here :-P). But I just can’t help it right now. So here’s a translation of “Rewriteâ€? by Asian Kung-Fu Generation :

Rewrite

Wanting to spit out the jarred thoughts is
Because there’s no other proof of my existence
My future that I should’ve grabbed hold is
Conflicting between “dignity” and “freedom”
Wanting to erase the distorted afterimage is
Because I’ll see my limit over there
In the window of the excessively self-conscious me
There are no dates in last year’s calendar

Erase and rewrite
The pointless ultra-fantasy
Revive
The unforgettable sense of being
Rewrite
The meaningless imagination
The driving force that creates you
Give it your whole body and soul

After cutting my feelings that grew, I regret
After realizing that after all, I’m just a mediocrity, I cry
A depressed heart
A dirty lie

Erase and rewrite
The pointless ultra-fantasy
Revive
The unforgettable sense of being
Rewrite
The meaningless imagination
The driving force that creates you
Give it your whole body and soul

Really, what I wanna do right now is go to Nobita’s house, jump into his time machine drawer, go to exactly two years ago, and punch the-two-years-ago-myself right in the face, so he didn’t do that stupid-pathetic thing.

And if time is a book, I wanna turn its page back into two years ago, and rewrite some mistake, but wishing to turning back time in term of fixing our own mistake is just so stupid and childish. All we can do is look at ourselves very closely and stare at the distant future with smile, as we gently step towards it. Ja, Ganbate na!

The lyric was brutally copy-pasted from Anime Lyrics
