Title: Motto Tooku e もっと遠くへ
Artist: Remioromen レミオロメン

LYRICS AND ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Motto Tooku e
     Farther Ahead

Motto tooku he ikitai to negatta
     I made a wish that I could go farther ahead
Tatta ichido umaretekita kiseki wa hakari shire nai
     The miracle that was born just once is immeasurable
Dakara dakara koso kowai no kamoshire nai
     That must be why, it must be why I’m scared
REERU ni nokkaru nomo mugen ni hirogaru jiyuu mo
     Of riding on the rails, scared of limitless freedom

Madaminu mirai kotae motomete mo
     Even if I seek an answer from the unseen future
Kumo wa chigirete kaze wa hoshi no ue wo fuki tsudukeru
     The clouds will scatter and the wind will blow above the stars

Dokomade itte mo GOORU wa itsumo
     No matter how far I go
Kokoro no oku ni aru mono dakara
     The goal is always deep inside my heart
Dono juujiro ga tsunagu mirai he mo
     So no matter what future these crossroads lead to
Me no mae no isshun ni subete wo sasagete
     I’ll look ahead, dedicate my all
Kake nukeru yo mada ashita wa
     And run through the path
Donna iro ni mo somatte nai sa
     Tomorrow has no colors yet
Kimi ni deaete boku wa yowasa to
     When I met you
Hajimete muki aeta mayoi no mukou ni
     I was able to face my weakness for the first time
Hikari wo motomete
     I seek light beyond the illusion

Ari no mama iki you to shite kizutsuku dake no hibi
     I wanted to live truthfully but the days just brought pain
Kimi mo boku mo gomakase nai omoi wo mune ni himete iru
     You and I both hold emotions in our hearts that cannot lie to us

Yume ni todokazu koi ni yaburete
     I couldn’t reach my dream as love tore me apart
Namida no soko no furueru kanjou ni kidzuita yo
     And found trembling emotions on a bed of tears

Nando datte yari naoseru
     I can try again and again until I get it right
Dakedo ima wa nido to ko nai
     But the present won’t ever come again
Kokoro no oku no tetsukazu no basho
     When I step into that untouched place
Fumikomeba itaku te namida mo ochiru kedo
     Deep in my heart it hurts so much that tears begin to fall

Susunde iku no sa jidai no sei ya
     But I’ll keep moving forward, if I could blame it on the times
Dareka no sei ni suru kurai nara
     If I could blame it on someone else
Mou ichido yume wo egakeru hazu sa
     Then I could start over and have a new dream
Aozora ni kirei na kimi no egao ga
     As if your lovely smiling face
Hirogatte iku you ni
     Stretched across the blue sky

Hi ga nobori atarashii sekai ga hajimaru
     The sun rises and a new world begins
Hyougen shi tsudukerunda
     I’ll keep on expressing myself

Ari no mama wo
     Truthfully

Akirame nai de sono kokoro ga
     Don’t give up, run through the path
Kimeta michi wo hashiri nukete
     Your heart decided on
Tsuyoi kaze ga fuita hi koso
     Especially on days when a strong wind blows
Dare yori mo hayaku tsuyoku utsukushiku
     Race through faster, stronger, more gracefully
Kake nukete yo yume no naka wo
     Than anyone else, inside a dream
Hikari no hou he yami wo saite
     Rip the darkness apart and head toward light
Kitto kotae wa hitotsu ja nai sa
     I’m sure there isn’t just a single answer
Arayuru zenryoku wo dukushite yuku no sa
     I’ll exhaust all the the strength I have in me
Motto tooku he
     And go farther ahead

Kimi to no deai wo dakishimete yuku no sa
     I’ll embrace the miracle of meeting you
Motto tooku he
     And go farther ahead

A place for my head


Full-blown Chester and Mike

Title: Esaul / A Place For My Head lyrics
Artist: Linkin Park

Before LP officially formed in 2000, they called themselves Hybrid Theory

Better audio quality

Riding with a head full of bodies are red
And what I said is still stuck in my head
But misled doing the things I do would make you never wanna come back
But an all front attack, you could never run from that
Being trapped in this with you,
Somethin’ that I never wanted to do
But through it all you’ve got to see that where I want to be
Is over the pen again letting it out of me
In the center of the day in the dream, reading all my thoughts
Getting lost in between, realizing one that the way to the sea
And the killing and again with a head full of screams
I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I live for them
So I see it’s not meant to be for me
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
And the second it starts we’re gonna be crushed when it all falls apart
Going in the hollow, hoping that you won’t know
The strain it puts to me, seeing what you’ve done
And consequently I’ve run away, just hidden again
Within the boundaries of the nameless
Don’t want me to say this, but you’re dragging me down
Lost in the chaos being tossed around
Singing again to myself, a head full of hectic
Hope that some day you’ll regret this
Everything’s the wrong place, the wrong time
Adding to the panic in my confine
Singing again to myself, a head full of hectic
Hope that some day you’ll regret this
Everything’s the wrong place, the wrong time
Adding to the panic in my confine
I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I live for them
So I see it’s not meant to be for me
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
You try to take the best of me
Stay away…
You try to take the best of me
Stay away…
You try to take the best of me
Stay away…
You try to take the best of me
Go away…!!!
You try to take the best of me
Go away…!!!
You try to take the best of me
Go away…!!!
You try to take the best of me
Go away…!!!
You try to take the best of me
Go away…!!!
I wanna live in another place
Where no one can say that I live for them
So I see it’s not meant to be for me
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
SHUT…UP…NOW!!!
Singing again to myself, a head full of hectic
Hope that some day you’ll regret this
Everything’s the wrong place, the wrong time
Adding to the panic in my confine
Singing again to myself, a head full of hectic
Hope that some day you’ll regret this
Everything’s the wrong place, the wrong time
Adding to the panic of my confine

From Hybrid Theory Album

Live in Texas

I watch how the moon sits in the sky
On a dark night shining with the light from the sun
The sun doesn’t give light to the moon
Assuming the moon’s going to owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors and then rapidly
You just turn around and start asking me about
Things you want back from me

Pre chorus:
I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Maybe someday I’ll be just like you, and
Step on people like you do and
Run away the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous, but you should’ve known
That you’d wear out your welcome
Now you see how quiet it is, all alone

Pre chorus (2x)

You try to take the best of me
Go away (8x)
