Context: An oni with the ability to manipulate density who likes to get drunk and party explains how they view life.
S U (eeh?) S U I K A!
ちまちま交わした 約束はいつでも 三歩で忘れる
どんぶり勘定 こぼれなかったもの それだけが正義
Chirachira kawashita yakusoku wa itsudemo Sanpo de wasureru
Donburi kanjyou koborenakatta mono Sore dake ga seigi
I always forget small promises/appointments 3 steps after
I make them; Anything left over after my sloppy bookkeeping — only those are the right ones.
萃まる魂 時に悩み
あっちいって こっちいって また戻っちゃって
Atsumaru tamashii toki ni nayami Acchi itte kocchi itte mata modochatte
These massing spirits, distressed about time Going to and fro, then coming back all over again
ゆらゆらゆれてる紙芝居
だから楽しい だから切ない
「また逢える」 と「また会いたい」と
願えば開く華
Yura yura yureteru kamishibai
Dakara tanoshii dakara setsunai
[mata aeru] to [mata aitai] to Negaeba hiraku hana
(It’s all) a rocking, shaking paper picture theater* That’s why its fun, but also why it’s heartrending [Meeting loved ones again] and wanting to meet people again — Those wishes are what opens the flower of life
時間が無くって心亡くしてく 忙殺の日々よ
時間はいつでも自分でつくるもの 誰かが言ってた
Jikan ga nakutte kokoro nakushiteku Bousatsu no hibi yo
Jikan wa itsudemo jibun de tsukuru mono Dareka ga itteta
Not having (any) time is what kills the heart Days swamped with work “Time is always something you make for yourself” or so someone said
疎む魂 ダメになれば
あっちいって そっちいって もう戻んないで
Utomu tamashii DAME ni nareba
Acchi itte socchi itte mou modonnai de
These neglected souls, if they become no good anymore They’ll go to and fro and never return
ゆらゆらゆれてる紙吹雪
人と人とは縁の塊
一度終われば ハイそれまでよ
たまには違うけど
Yura yura yureteru kamishibai Hito to hito to wa en no katamari
Ichido owareba HAI sore made yo
Tama ni wa chigau kedo
It’s all a swaying, shaking, confetti storm A mass of people and their bonds with each other And once it ends, yep, that’s all folks! But yet, sometimes that’s not the case…
