Nameless Sadness
Irys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found out the truth of this cold and cruel world
So why should I stay? And why don't I go?

I can't believe what's happening, everywhere it's all the same
Maybe I just can't see, I just can't understand their feelings
誰もきっと愛情を 欲し生きているはず
歪んだ世界で独り そうつぶやく
Should I have pretended not to see anything?
But these feelings, anger, despair, still won't fade away

嘆くばかりじゃ何も変わらない なのに悲しみが止まない

I saw people turn and betray their own friends
I saw people ignoring calls for help
How can I stop this anger crying in my heart?
Is it enough just to pray and hope for change?

They should have learned what might happen by looking back on their history
But they can never see, they repeat the same mistakes again

誰も見てみぬふりをしている すぐそばにある悲劇を

I saw people cry, overcome with sadness
I saw people give up their happiness
Why can't I stop this feeling crying in my heart?
Even though I know that people are cruel

Was what I saw all this world has to offer?
今は不確かだって
If it was so, there would be no hope left in this world
それが真実と知ってしまっても

I found out the truth of this cold and cruel world
So why should I stay? And why don't I go?
I saw people turn and betray their own friends
I saw people ignoring calls for help




How can I stop this anger crying in my heart?
Still, I can't stop wishing for better days
