[translation] HAPPY ENDING / walking proud

Thank you very much, Bryan, for checking all the translations here.

HAPPY ENDING

There are lots of stars
As if to fill the gap between thick clouds
They are shining like a prayer
Almost like a shout
And my chest is constricted

I hope the morning will come for me soon
Before I can't hide up my weakness

(*) It's strange I feel so lonely at night
Only because you are not here

After how many times of
Committing a sin like this

Will I be inhuman?
Will I be invisible to everyone?

I find nothing I want in a place like this
Which I escaped and tumbled into
I rip my feelings off my heart
And stick a smile on the mask
Please take me away from here
Before everything becomes a memory

(**) I felt I knew the meaning of love a little
After I had met you

If I can finish my penance some day
If I'm forgiven some day ...

But I have no right after all that
To tell the definition of happiness

(*) repeat
(**) repeat

Well, I know better than anyone else
That a happy ending never suits me

walking proud

My lips told a lie
For a trivial reason
I suppose it was for no one else
But only to protect me
When I was thoughtless

When I noticed, I was trapped and at a loss
Surrounded by countless lies

(*) The sky I looked up at was beautiful
I thought of you
I wished I could walk with firm steps
Facing forward like you

But I escaped from the reality
Escaped from all the pain
I said to myself
"I'll be my ideal self some day
Though I'm far from that now"

After such excuses, my eyes were opened
What I could do was only to live in the present time

(**) Does this voice reach you?
Does it ring in your heart?
I'm walking on today
Looking at your back as a guidepost to live

(*) repeat
(**) repeat
