Translation:
Did I imagine this kind of future?
Did you imagine this kind of future?
Did I wish for this kind of future?
Did you wish for this kind of future?
They ask me "The beginning or the end?"
"Did you give up Or are you holding on?"
"Are you shrugging off Or in despair?"
You tell me Just to go forward
Am I able to handle this kind of era?
Are you able to handle this kind of era?
Should I leave my body, or remain trapped inside it?
Should I pretend I can see it, or is it just not there anyway?
Should I fight, or raise the white flag?
I'm not going to run away like a victim
In this world, we have to slow down because we don't know everything
That way, we can continue down a cleared path
They ask me "The beginning or the end?"
"Did you give up Or are you holding on?"
"Are you shrugging off Or in despair?"
You tell me Just to go forward
Is it because I've become strong
That I can be without tears
Or ... ?

Even though I could pick up certain parts of the song while listening to the original Mirror, it's just so much better seeing the full version translated. These lyrics are quite powerful---they're still hesitant and introspective, as expected of Ayu, but it's a more grown-up type of "What's the meaning of life" question. Goes fabulously with the pounding composition of the song.
