HanaDoll manga cover

In the melting rain your color is more brilliant than ever
But one day, this scenery might vanish as well, right?
Do we* want it? Such tiring and inconsistent love
I’m aware, but I just couldn’t look at it
I’ve hurt you, am I crazy? Tell me...
Look, this thread that ties us is now lose again

The Pain In My Heart
Pain In My Heart
I hate that you’re stuck in my head
This wound is the only thing that connects us
I know that… but I've never told you
Oh baby, let me go

We’ve left behind all those happy times
My distorted feeling just meaninglessly repeat itself
With you, my foolish self stay together
What you were looking for, I get it
Let’s stop pretending that we understand
Until I’m able to see you doing well (I’m sure)
I really don’t want to see those same eyes

The Pain In My Heart
Pain In My Heart
No matter what I do, You’re stuck in my head
Your wound is where I am
You see that…but I've never told you
Oh baby, let me go…

As all these pages turn
I hope this will be left behind in the past
We quarrel with each other, making tears flow
This is a comedy, not a tragedy
Reflected in a broken, upside down mirror
I can't be with you anymore…
(Sorry, this is my fault…)

The Pain In My Love
Pain In My Love
It’s confusing that you’re stuck in my head
No matter what we say, we’re already on our own ways
You’ve already drawn out a way to say goodbye
So baby, let you go…
Before I turn to hate you
Baby, don't cry

HanaDoll manga cover

An irregular heartbeat that leaves behind only ripples
A dream that could be seen from a never-changing angle
The sound of the second hand was washed away in my memories
Happiness comes in as I softly inhales a breath

Wake me up
Can you hear me
Set me free from this sad night
Before I lose everything

Run out of breath (oh oh oh…)
I’ll keep moving on my own my own my own way
To save my little world
Run out of breathe (oh oh oh…)
Stayin' alive my life yeah
Ain't gonna stop till the end

The world is a bit scary, but beautiful
Traces of tears start to fade
As if magic happened!

Feel so strange
But I don't care
Hurry up and Let it go
Before I'll be gone away

Run out of breath (oh oh oh…)
I cry out louder louder louder oh
To save my little world
Run out of breath (oh oh oh…)
Stayin' alive my life yeah
Ain't gonna stop till the end

Even when my legs seem like they would break
Even in times when things seem to be uncertain
Even when the road is so steep and cold
Even when I’m lost Hah ah...

Let’s make a wish
Though it is not special
Tomorrow too, I will continue to run on this road
My hope is still up

Wake me up
Can you hear me
Set me free from this dark night
Before I lose everything

Run out of breath (oh oh oh…)
Believe in my own my own my own way
To save my little world
Run out of breath (oh oh oh…)
It’s not ending yet, my life yeah
Just once more, take a breathe

HanaDoll manga cover

Past fade away
And I’m holding on to these shaking feelings
I won’t ever forget that fading silhouette
And the unforgettable Distance, yeah
Attached Fake Label
The camera that doesn’t have a focus Ah
My distorted Truth
We might never cross paths again, You and I
I hate living in a lie, you know
Wanna stand by you
But you say “No”
I will keep on finding all these words
(I hope this) reaches you
Wanna feel just the same
Even if we’ve been up and down like a seesaw
You’re the one
Who understand me
I can’t live without you oh oh
What I can do and what I love aren’t the same
I will tell you
I wanna be your soulmate this time

I find a way
But I made a fruitless effort again
Crumbled Babel tower*
We unbalance each other (Oh my God)
Only you are different
Wait a moment! Why do we fight again?
Oh, damn it!

Wanna feel you just the same
Even if we've been up and down like a seesaw
You're the one who understand me
I can't live without you oh oh

No matter how many times we collide, we fall and we hurt each other
I still wanna meet you
I wanna be your soulmate this time

Adlib: “I lost you once, and I’m not going to lose you again
I’ll come back, I’ll come back for you
Take my hand, and we’ll fly far, far, far away
from here...”

As long as the clock is still ticking, I’ll keep on walking Now I’m OK
With my hope I’ll surely search for you and an answer

I hate living a lie you know
I said "Stand by you" but you said "…what?
We couldn't change the past, we know
So now I

Wanna feel you just the same
Even if we've been up and down like a seesaw
You're the one who understand me
I can't live without you oh oh

This feeling I have that surely bloomed from that film
It hasn’t ended yet
Yes, we are…we are soulmates this time

You're the one…
Hope tonight…
Trust me bae…

Tu la li la……
Knock Knock Knock Knock
I'm always thinkin'
Why I'm suffering from this heartache
Please stop, just stop all the cursing
Please make me happy with your interpretations
You always ask me Ah
"Are u happy now?"

Paint my face how many times you want
Reflected in the mirror
Who's crying from behind me?
The eyes can only see what’s on the surface
Walking alone with my face
The whispering in my ears just won’t stop
I'm looking for myself Oh

Why are you blaming me? (so crazy)
I've always been so different
You pretended to know all about me
So I'm just teasing you, say
"Let me know who I am"
Knock Knock Knock Knock

How can you judge me (Hey, tell me?)
Say "Be yourself" like common sense
You pretended to know all about me
So I'm just teasing you, say
"Let me know who you are"
Knock Knock Knock Knock

Correcting, fixing
What’s wrong with me?
This is my persona
No one cares but I’m going to be like
Cuz I’m not inside their mind

No need for reassuring words
No need to think no no no no
My feeling is too low low low low
That is me

Paint my face how many times you want
What kind of meaning do you want? Means nothing
Whose hand will make it better?
Don’t be scared to love
Apart from my fiction self
I can’t find myself (Ah)

Why are you blaming me? (so crazy)
I've always been so different
You presented to know all about me
So I'm just teasing you, say
"Let me know who I am"
Knock Knock Knock Knock

How can you judge me (Hey, tell me?)
Say "Be yourself" like common sense
You pretended to know all about me
So I'm just teasing you,
"Let me know who you are"
Knock Knock Knock Knock

Tu la li la……
Tu la li la……
Knock Knock Knock Knock

HanaDoll manga cover

Where hope was thrown away
I’ve taken a very special name
Look, even the useless things are changing
I’ve took back the light I once forgot
Step step step step step step
Step step step step step step
Oh Oh

Hey wait, I’ve been obedient
The alarm is off, but I still wanna sleep
I lie to myself that if I continue like this, people would wanna meet me
Hai, a good-mark(1) for you!

In this lottery game of life, today too, is service day isn’t it?
Where is my success? Which one is first place?
I stumble in a rollercoaster of emotions in this unfair game

That vivid hope will soar high
A handful of shining star
An armful of jealousy
Really (really) feels like it’s going to cut through my chest
But hey, (hey) I’m still dancing!
Step step step step step step
Even when my feet are worn out
Step step step step step step
Oh oh

The grass is always greener on the other side
Other people’s flowers are always so beautiful
Me who’s always asking for the impossible
I cover my ears, to not hear your voice

I hate this world that prefers everything in the [same color]
This world that ridicules any [difference]
I recklessly fought my imaginary opponents(2)
But I don’t understand the point of it anymore

At times when the sun is still asleep
When I was running around, all alone
You’ve said to my invisible self
“Hey look”
Quietly, I wipe the sweat off of my face

“I’m home” and “welcome back!”
Still stays in my memory of you

That vivid hope
Blooms in my color only
When the sun finally wakes up
I can hear the level-up sound
It’s alright, all right
Hey, yeah, I’m still dancing!
Step step step step step step
Take my hand
Step step step step step step
Oh Oh

[I’m home]

  • Original: Hanamaru. This is something used in Japanese primary schools/kindergarten, usually to reward children with good behaviour or do well in schoolworks

  • I purposefully twisted the words in this part. The original lyrics were “がむしゃらに シャドウボクシング”, which means “recklessly shadowboxing”. But I figured it would not really make sense to just leave the lyrics as it is.

HanaDoll manga cover

This is my statement.
Are you ready for me? Listen up.
I have a dream. I have…
It doesn’t matter. The nightmare was over.
Now workin' …I'm MAHIRO

Ego is to be discriminated, money is to be honoured
Stop branding me however you want
Mind your business
Ha! What does “ordinary” feel like? Follow your right(1)
Being brainwashed like a doll
Following suit that standard
Hey, who is killin’ my identity?
Prejudiced(2)
That Filter is a weapon
Malice, self-conceit Are you ready HATERS?
(BANG!)

Raise your voice (Eh-Oh)
Stand up, HERO
Beat the drum
I wanna be a Tycoon (Eh-Oh)
I wanna be a Tycoon
Cease fire!(3)

I waited for my chance to come in this cell
My look make ‘em sweat
(Ouch!)
Mr. Borrowed knowledge
What do u want next?
Worldwide? Like me?
「Ha! Sorry for being so cool
When you’re out there playing
I was working my ass off
Ding dong deng. 」

This is how I do it!
Let's get it on movin'
Give me more Trophies
To become a Tycoon
(Eh-Oh)
To become a Tycoon
Follow me

I’m different, So what?
Ego doesn’t have anything to do with judgement
You’re worried? I know, Huh
The charms and destructivity of this flower

In a labyrinth of feelings, there’s no forgiveness
Why so cold?
Money and Name value(4) break my wings

Raise your voice (Eh-Oh)
Stand up, HERO
Ha! Nothing’s impossible, Period
I wanna be a Tycoon (Eh-Oh)
I wanna be a Tycoon
Bring it on!

  • (1)The original lyrics is exactly what it says - to follow the one to your right (migi ni narau). This is actually a real phrase commonly used in Japanese military, which means “follow the people around you”

  • (2)This one is tricky because the meaning was lost in translation. Mahiro sang “henkenjizai” (偏見自在) which could be roughly translated to “freely prejudiced” (自在 means freely, freedom or words of the same sort, and 偏見 means prejudice). However, a more commonly known phrase is “hengenjizai” (変幻自在) which means surrealism, and these two phrases sound very similar (wordplay), so I guess it’s part of his intention to slightly twist the words like this.

  • (3)Cease fire (or ceasefire) means a temporary suspension of fighting, typically one during which peace talks take place; a truce.

  • (4)Original: ネームバリュー This word refers to one person’s worth being determined by the prominence/values of factors such as the university they graduated from, the company they’re working for, etc. This is one of the biggest problems in Asian countries, especially when it comes to job hunting

I’m always thinking about you, 24/7
But I have no idea
Spring as I knew (When I open my eyes)
Comes with fluttering Hash n’ numbers
Does it make sense? (I say, why?)

Why do I miss that dream journey? (Why?)
Why didn’t you appear
In neither my dreams nor reality?
Where’s the piece that would complete the starry sky? (Where)
(It’s a play on words)
Miles away I’m searching for you
Make you remember this

Oh Wendy (Wendy)
Life’s too heavy (heavy)
You don’t know (I knew)
Hurry, come back Never Land
What’s holding you back?
Might be (Might be)
I want you (want you)
Maybe yeah likely (Must be)
Do not grow up
You got what I want
Show me I don’t want a return
I’ll let go of everything
I’m fully satisfied
Look at me (Might be)
I still want you
If I forget fairies
I’ll make an Honest wish under the night sky

Your barren flower
Fell into the palm of my hand
Now we’re connected, feels like an electric shock
(It's a play on words)
Miles away, I seek for it

24/7, even though my mind is always working
I still have NO idea
Make you remember it
Oh Wendy
(Wendy)
Second star, you like it
(Lovely)
I wanna touch it
(Let me touch it)

Meaning for…Umm many
What's holding me back?
Might be
(Might be)
I want you
(Want you)
Maybe yeah likely
(Must be)
Do not grow up
I'll get what you want
(You got what I want)

(Come)
Show me
The real you
I’ll let go of everything
I’m fully satisfied
Look at me
(Choose me now)
Might be
I want you
If you forget fairies
They’ll vanish, so I pray with Honesty

Woo…Oh…

I wish you would

Sleep in my bed

Quiet…
