[translation] my name's WOMEN / Liar / HOPE or PAIN

Thank you very much, Bryan, for checking all these translations. I'm going to translate other album songs soon.

my name's WOMEN

I like glittering things and pretty things
As much as before
But being cool and being tough
Have become more important lately

(*) You see? Times have changed so much
But why do I still hear such words as
"Tears are women's weapons"?

(**) We don't cry easily
We are not always coquettish
We are not dolls
Who are only dressed-up

(***) We have our weak sides
We are not always smiling
Don't forget
That we don't exist to be convenient for you

Though it's certain
I have a pain in my chest on some nights

It might be true
The more one experiences sufferings
The more he can be tender and strong

(****) Do you think you have controlled everything
With a knowing look?
We are not dolls
Who are only dreaming

(*****) Do you think you have cheated us well
With a satisfied look?
Do remember
That we are not such simple beings

(*) repeat
(**) repeat
(***) repeat
(****) repeat
(*****) repeat

Liar

Spending my days too unproductively
I was just intoxicated with funny feelings

The first kiss, various events
Sometimes I became so possessive

(*) The only thing I could do at that time was
To really try turning my back on love

I might have known too early
The terrible rebound after happiness

"To behave generally is the best"
Such an illusion was too simple and just shallow

(**) Your back I saw off for the last time still take up my mind
How long should I wait to be released?

"The more you love me, the more my heart aches
I don't love ... any more"

(*) repeat
(**) repeat


HOPE or PAIN

What am I expecting?
Every time the phone receiver
I'm grasping trembles
My heart leaps
But soon I'm let down with a sigh
How many times will I continue to do this?

How long am I going to believe the words, "some other day"
When it will never come?

It's better to forget
Thinking that I just dreamed for a little while
Though I know very well
A miracle will never happen
Though I know very well

I'm sorry I told you abruptly that day
That everything became suddenly unclear

The last time that I saw your tears
Is still clinging to my memory

Why couldn't I believe in you .
Right in front of me?
You see? It must have been good enough
Only to love what I was loving
Almost clumsily

I wonder if I could leave
Something for you

When time passes by
What will be left for me?
My heart going on wishing for a miracle?
Or just

A scar?

That's awesome! I really love the lyrics to my name's WOMEN she's really trying to make a point about women, well, someone has to do it, besides the newer generation of Japanese, they don't treat women over there very well. Thanks a lot.

The lyrics for my name's WOMEN are awesome. It's kinda like a continuation of Real Me but at a more firm and serious stand point.

Thanks Masa!
