[lyrics translation] Myuji - eX Dream

Not VK, but close enough and still one of my favourite songs of all time ♥
I read a translation of this song over a decade ago and really trusted it... that translation is still there and I read it today... I kind of felt... meh, because that transltion wasn't really well done.
So yeah, I just quickly did my own translation.
Certainly not perfect either, but probably closer to the original.

Oh yeah, that song was the intro for the anime X, by the way!! o(〃'▽'〃)o



[romaji] eX Dream

izure kowareyuku kono sekai ni wa
yume ya kibou toka dou demo ii
kokoro no naka de nemuru kimi wa mezameru koto nai kedo
kaerarenu mirai wo sono te de kanjite

Burning for your life
itsuka moetsukiru kono inochi wo sasagetemo
(for the perfect dream)
Drowning in my dream
tatoe oborete mo yume wa yume de shikanai
kimi wa star light

hikari afureteku sono sekai ni wa
kimi no tamashii ga michite yuku
mujou no ai wo negau tenshi wa mezameru to sugu ni
owari yuku mirai wo kono te de uketomete

Burning for my life
itsuka tsukihateru kono inochi wa modoranai
(For the eX Dream)
Drowning in your dream
tatoe oborete mo yume no tsuzuki wa doko e
boku wa moon light

Burning for your life
yagate otozureru sono kibou ni kakete demo
(For the perfect dream)
Drowning in my dream
tatoe taorete mo nigedashitari wa shinai

Burning for my life
kesshite mayowanai kono kimochi wa tomaranai
(For the eX Dream)
Drowning in your dream
tomo ni tsukisusumu ashita e no michi to naru
bokura wa star light



[translation] eX Dream

Sooner or later I will come undone in this world
Dreams or hopes It doesn't matter
Inside your heart you're sleeping and won't wake up
Feel the future you cannot change with these hands

Burning for your life
One day it will burn out Even if you sacrifice  this life
(for the perfect dream)
Drowning in my dream
Even if I drown A dream is just a dream
You are star light

Light It's overflowing in this world
Your soul will expire eventually
An angel wishing for unconditional love As soon as it wakes up
It will catch the future that is about to end with these hands

Burning for my life
One day it will be exhausted This life won't come back
(For the eX Dream)
Drowning in your dream
Even if I drown How will this dream go on
I am moon light

Burning for your life
It's going to be here soon Even if you hold onto this hope
(For the perfect dream)
Drowning in my dream
Even if I should break down I will not run away

Burning for my life
I will never lose my way These feelings will not stop
(For the eX Dream)
Drowning in your dream
We will push on together and clear the way to our future
We are star light
