Binetsu majiri no te tsumetaku tsutsumikonde iku
Namida misezu ni nani ka wo gizei ni shite aruku

The lyrics of "Crying Rain" by Girugamesh express a feeling of being trapped in a cycle of pain and disappointment. The rain falling from the sky represents the tears that the singer is fighting to hold back, and the dry asphalt and feverish hands they mention in the beginning suggest a feeling of isolation and discomfort. As they walk without shedding a tear, despite possibly betraying someone they care about, the singer questions whether it's worth it to hold onto hope if it means giving up a dream they share with someone else. The repeated lyric "night keeps crying," signifies how the cyclical sadness keeps haunting them and won't stop no matter what they do.
The second verse provides a shift in perspective as the singer describes their face reflected in a puddle caused by the rain. They seem to be questioning whether they should give up on what they want in life, wondering if the answer is as simple as just giving up. The song asks if self-reflection and embracing one's desires can ease the emotional pain of betrayal, and whether it's possible to stop feeling lost and uncertain.

The rain that began to fall dissolves into the dry asphalt
In the chill I wrap these hands, mingling with a slight heat
Not showing my tears, I walk
A martyr for something
Even if the outcome may be that I betray you
But you know, it can be changed so that until I abandon hope
Just like this, I'll always dream the same dream with you...
The repeating days soak us
Even the place we pictured on that day
The nighttime downpour keeps thundering on and on
And the night cries, cries
The rain that began to fall put the scent of soil on the wind
My face reflects in a tepidly gathering puddle
Is it fine this way?
Although there's only one answer
This is the conclusion that gave rise to my worries
So please don't ask me anymore
If I blame myself will my feelings become a little easier?
You see, I'm always just playing the victim
Even if we walk and smile at one another, glossing things over
The rain washes everything away
The day you announced our separation, in truth I was crying
Dissolve this lie of a smile
Continuing to hesitate, continuing to worry
I think I can become stronger
Continuing to hesitate, continuing to worry
So until the day I can smile at such days
Feelings I can't completely throw away slowly cutting off my breaths
I shut my eyes and exhale
Remembering that day, clenching my fists tightly
Wishing for tomorrow
The repeating days soak us
Even the place we pictured on that day
The nighttime downpour keeps thundering on and on
And the night cries, cries

降りだした雨は 乾いたアスファルトに溶けて
微熱混じりの手 冷たく包み込んでいく
涙見せずに 何かを犠牲にして歩く
例え結果 君を裏切る事になっても
でもね変われる 希望を捨ててまでこのまま
君とずっと 同じ夢を見ようと･･･
繰り返す日々が 僕等を濡らしていく
あの日描いた場所さえ
どしゃぶりの夜は ずっと鳴りやまない
夜が泣く 鳴く
降りだした雨が 土の匂いを風に乗せて
生温く溜まる 水溜まりに顔が写る
これで良いのか? 答えは一つしか無いけど
これが悩み生んだ結果 もう聞かないでくれ
自分責めれば 気持ちは少し楽になれる?
ほらねいつも 被害者のフリしてばかり
綺麗事並べ歩いて 笑い合っても
雨が全てを流してく
別れを告げた日 本当は泣いていたよ
嘘の笑み 溶け
迷い続け 悩み続け
強くなっていけると思うから
迷い続け 悩み続け
こんな日々を笑い合える日まで
捨てきれぬ想い ゆっくり息を止めて
瞳閉じて息を吐き
あの日思いだし 手の平強く握り
明日に願う
繰り返す日々が 僕等を濡らしていく
あの日描いた場所さえ
どしゃぶりの夜は ずっと鳴りやまない
夜が泣く 鳴く

Back in like 2009, some random guy at a sushi bar recommended this band to me when the topic of Japanese culture came up and I'd never heard of it. It's actually really good.
He had good taste.

2007-2013 was the golden age of japanese culture's fever in Kiyv where I was born and raised. I've been in a j-rock band, we called ourselves Shiroku, still don't know the meaning tho, lol. We covered songs of the Gazette, and then I met my first love at the concert, she was the one who introduced me to Crying Rain and Shining, I felt in love with those songs and this band immediatley. Everytime I hear this song, the nostalgic feeling hit me hard, I could feel, smell and hear my old good times, my carefree 19, my old friends, my first love and first cheap chinese eletric guitar...
God, what happened to me.

You can continue if you think this part is still relevant and defines you.

I remember my ipod was full of J-pop and V-rock songs between 2007-2012, then I stopped listening Japanese music and start listening 90s and 00s hip hop music
