chihiro onitsuka lyrics & translation
A Horse and a Queen
Las Vegas


sono hazama ni kiretsu nado niawanai kodoku o nomihosu atashi o
anata wa shikkari miteita n dakara

kakujitsu na shindou kazaoto kono me ni utsuru hodo no torippu ni

tsubureru made nomarete

kono shinzou ni furete anata wa tada mi o noridasu dake
atashi ni wa kotae nado tsumibukai no ni

kono yubi ni tsunagatte anata no honoo mo subete
shigamitsuita gensou ni furiotosareta toki ni wa
arayuru nadare datte issho ni kanjite ageru kono yubi ni tsunagatte
I just kneel to bright ditch down

shizumaru aranami nado shiranai sono sube ni shizunda kiba o

nanimo iwanaide atashi ni akashite

shidai ni yamu kibou mienai furi ja nakute kachitai dake

douse nara yoyuu sae semetatetai

kono yubi ni tsunagatte anata no honoo mo subete
kirikizanda karute ni obieta mama de iru nara
sore sae surinukeru supiido de saratte ageru kono yubi ni tsunagatte
I just kneel to bright ditch down

kono yubi ni tsunagatte anata no honoo mo subete
shigamitsuita gensou ni furiotosareta toki ni wa
arayuru nadare datte issho ni kanjite ageru kono yubi ni tsunagatte
I just kneel to bright ditch down
Cracks and such don’t suit that ditch; after all, you’ve been
steadily watching me who drinks up loneliness

A certain vibration, the sound of the wind – swallowed down until it’s crushed
by it reflecting in my eyes so much that I trip

In touching my heart, all you’re doing is just leaning your body forward
After all, to me, things like answers are sinful

Tie it all to my finger, your flame and everything
There were times when the illusions that clung made me shake it off
I’ll feel with you every avalanche together – tie it all to my finger
I just kneel to bright ditch down

I don’t know any stormy seas calming down; reveal to me your sunken fangs
in that way of yours, without saying anything

My hopes gradually falling ill aren’t an invisible pretense; I just want to win
In any case, I want to severely torture even any added extras

If you’re scared of slashed clinical records
I’ll sweep them away for you at a speed that can slip through even that – tie it all to my finger
I just kneel to bright ditch down

Tie it all to my finger, your flame and everything
There were times when the illusions that clung made me shake it off
I’ll feel with you every avalanche together – tie it all to my finger
I just kneel to bright ditch down

Translator's notes: "I just kneel to bright ditch down" makes no sense, right? By looking at the Japanese translation (provided in the album insert), I was able to conclude that what she really meant was something like "I simply kneel down in a brilliant ditch."
Song info: This song was written when she was 22 or 23 (or even 21).
Chihiro's liner notes: This song was finished around the time of This Armor. I don’t remember, again, what made me make it.
