It's All Too Much
Romaji Lyrics and Eng Translation- by uchihamel@YL
Kobaruto iro ni kawaru yoru sa
Tsumetaku hikaru hoshizora
Kotoba nara mou iranai kara
Namida ni kakureta shinjitsu wo
Tokiakasou to suru yori
Konkyo mo nai unarai no hou ga mashi
Akari no naku natta benchi de
Miagetara
Risou bakari ukabu
Nagareboshi deshita
Nee! Oshiete yo
Arugamama ikite yukeru nara
Ginga ni hirogaru kiseki atsumete
Nori koete mitai yo
Datte karadan naka
Meguru kanjou ni
Shihai sareten da
Kon nan ja dame sa
Nee sou desho?
Saikoro furu mitai ni kimete
Koukai nante dekinai hodo
Tsugi no basho he to susundeitai
Aimai ni tsukurareta ruuru bukku
Okubyou na bun dake deokurete
Raibaru no senaka mitsuzuketen da
Sonna no mo
Tsuki akari sekirara
Suppadaka no kokoro kara hagureta
Nagareboshi deshita
Nee! Oshiete yo
Arugamama ikite yukeru hodo
Junjou nanka ja nai
Arasou koto mo sakerarenai no
Kitto karamawari
Kurikaesu kyoukun ni
Shihai sareten da
Dou sureba ii no
Nee uso desho?
Kuusou bakari kaite
Susumenai
Aisou yoku mo narenai
Naze darou?
… It’s all too much
Nee! Oshiete yo
Arugamama ikite yuku tame ni
Semaru nandai sae mo
Yuumoa ni kaete
Waraitobashitai
Datte kaiketsu dekinai
Nichijou ni uzumoreru
Dakara shinjite itai yo
Kiseki tte aru desho?
Nee sou desho?
It’s all too much translation
The night is turning into a shade of cobalt
The chilly star studded sky is glimmering
There’s no need for words of any sort
Rather than trying to uncover the truth concealed behind tears
I’m better off with baseless predictions
Sitting on the bench where the lights have already gone out
And gazing up
It was a shooting star with only idealities surfacing
Nee! Would someone enlighten me
If I were to live life as it is simply
I would gather all the miracles dispersed throughout the universe
And try overcoming them
All because these emotions which are pulsing throughout my body
Are dictating me
This wouldn’t do
Am I right?
Being as decisive as cast dice
And not ever having regrets
I hope to move onward to the next destination
The rule book which was created uncertainly
Only timidity appeared later
I continue watching the backs of my rivals
That,
As naked as the moonlight
Was a shooting star which strayed from a pure heart
Nee! Would someone enlighten me
To live life as it is simply
Innocence does not suffice
You can’t escape from conflicts too
Those lessons which I have learnt time after time
Are definitely dictating me
What should I do
It’s a lie isn’t it?
Simply daydreaming
Will not get me anywhere
It also can’t make me more pleasant
I wonder why?
… It’s all too much
Nee! Would someone enlighten me
In order to live life as it is simply
I want to change even the toughest obstacles facing me into something humorous
And then laugh it off
Because there is no way to resolve it
It is buried within everyday life
That is why I wish to believe
Miracles do exist don’t they?
Isn't that so?
The tune is still growing on me..I'm not as hot about this melody as I was when I heard [again], but the riff is catchy. The PV is awesome though.
It really catches the mood and gist of the song.*short hair,yay!**whazzup with d hoodie again**digging the white outfit**fell in love with the shooting stars*
As usual, her lyrics are deep and multi-layered. I especially like the double meaning behind 'nee, so deshou?' which can mean 'is it not so?' or 'is it really?'that she tags at every chorus end. It's like we believe in miracles yet there's a little part of our brain that doubts.
I'm looking forward to this double A side single . The other song is called Never Say Die.
Trivia-smrivia: Both song titles are related to the Beatles (John Lennon,Ringo Starr, etc.), and Yui-san has been known to name her albums after famous Beatles' songs.
The Beatle's psychedelic version of It's all too much:
Try not to get high from all those sub-surreal artwork......from the yellow submarine.
Anyway, back to YUI's song..It's the theme for the new movie 'Kaiji" starring Tatsuya Fujiwara and Kenichi Matsuyama (both from the Death Note movies) :
'Kaiji' is about a down and out average Japanese guy who is forced to board a gambling ship where he has battle his shipmates for survival in various games. Lose a single game, and it's bye bye world.
This double A side single will be released on October 14th.
