SKE48 (Team KII) - 異形のダンス / Igyou no Dance (Distorted Dance)

From Team KII 8th Stage

   

砂埃上げて

ネットの荒野 響く蹄の音

追い込んだ　崖の上で

ついに私は見た

手を挙げて　震える

その姿

臆病で　愚かな

匿名希望

The sound of hooves kicking up dust,

echoing across the wilderness of the internet

Cornered into a cliff,

I* finally saw 

that figure,

trembling, with hands raised–

the cowardly, foolish

desire to be anonymous

ソウルのビルの夜明け　眺めて

あくびをする姿

首にかけたIDの　僕が責めるようさ

ベッドルーム　隅に隠してた

鉢植え 芽吹いていく

本当の僕になりたいと

窮屈なヒールを脱ぐ

A figure yawning,

watching the sunrise through Seoul's buildings

It's like the me* in the ID around my neck is blaming me

The potted plant I'd hidden in a corner of the bedroom

is budding

"I want to be my real self",

I take off my suffocating heels

プールの底　東京の喧騒から遠ざかる

私だけの世界のようで　少しホッとした

At the bottom of the pool, I get away from Tokyo's bustle

Like it's my own world here, I feel a little relieved

鼓動　鼓動　孤独な

夜を　夜を　駆けていけ

誰のものでもない私

夢を　夢を　抱きしめ

Heartbeat, heartbeat,

run through this lonely night

I don't belong to anyone

Embrace my dream, dream

なにが"ふつう"か　語ることは僕たちを

切り離す knife

心の底から望む生き方

誰も邪魔しないで

Talking about what's "normal"

is the knife that splits us apart

Nobody get in the way
of the lifestyle I desire from the bottom of my heart

Let's Let's dance 思うまま dance dance

Let's Let's dance 踊らせて

Let's Let's dance 道をあけなよ

踊らせて

Let's Let's Let's dance, dance dance as we please

Let's Let's dance, let us dance

Let's Let's dance, make way
Let us dance

なにが"ふつう"か　語ることは私たち

切り離す knife

心の底から望む生き方を

もう邪魔しないで

Talking about what's "normal"

is the knife that splits us apart

Don't get in the way
of the lifestyle I desire from the bottom of my heart, anymore

これが"奇妙"で　哀れに見えると言うの?

それなら今夜

心の底から思うまま踊りたい

異形のダンス　ダンス

Are you saying this looks "strange" and pitiful?

Then, tonight,

I want to dance the way my heart truly wants

A distorted dance, dance

*Note: The viewpoint seems to alternate between a "watashi" in Tokyo and a "boku" in Seoul–likely a nod to the fact that four songs from this stage including this were composed and arranged by Night Tempo, the Korean producer (although he wrote the lyrics only for Jikan ga Nai).
