After Dark
Vocals: Asian Kung-Fu Generation
Lyrics: Goto Masafumi
Composition: Goto Masafumi & Yamada Takahiro
Arrangement: Asian Kung-Fu Generation
I’ll escape while the shadow behind me finishes growing
Without even realizing that my wings have peeled and fallen off, I fly
I drool over the sweet scent at the street corner
From the far side
There’s a cry that sounds like I’ve heard it elsewhere
Carrying the faint hope that the night wind holds
Where can I go?
As if rejecting it, the world quakes and steals away everything
If it was a dream, then I’ve woken up
But we’re still not doing anything
Advancing on
I act like I’ll quit being lazy at midday
I fly so that I can look down upon the newborn clouds
The scent of blood wafts from the street corner
From the far side
There’s a cry that sounds like I’ve heard it elsewhere
The deep red moon drifting sluggishly appears and the die is rolled
I want to quit the careless days
So that I don’t come to an end by feigning ignorance
Carrying the faint hope that the night wind holds
Where can I go?
As if rejecting it, the world quakes and steals away everything
If it was a dream, then I’ve woken up
But we’re still not doing anything
Advancing on

Senaka no kage ga nobikiru sono aima ni nigeru
Hagare ochita hane ni mo kizukazu ni tobu
Machikado amai nioi ryuuzen
Tooku mukou kara
Dokoka de kiita you na nakigoe
Yokaze ga hakobu awai kibou o nosete
Doko made yukeru ka
Sore o kobamu you ni sekai wa yurete subete o ubaisaru
Yume nara sameta
Dakedo bokura wa mada nani mo shite inai
Susume
Mahiru no taida o tachikiru you na soburi de ukabu
Umareochita kumo made miorosu you ni tobu
Machikado chi no nioi ryuusen
Tooku mukou kara
Dokoka de kiita you na nakigoe
Dorodoro nagareru fukaku akai tsuki ga arawarete furareru sai
Detarame na hibi o tachikiritai
Nani kuwanu kao de owaranu you ni
Yokaze ga hakobu awai kibou o nosete
Doko made yukeru ka
Sore o kobamu you ni sekai wa yurete subete o ubaisaru
Yume nara sameta
Dakedo bokura wa mada nani mo shite inai

背中の影が延び切るその合間に逃げる
剥がれ落ちた羽にも気づかずに飛ぶ
街角 甘い匂い 流涎
遠く向こうから
何処かで聞いたような鳴き声
夜風が運ぶ淡い希望乗せて
何処まで行けるか
それを拒むように世界は揺れて全てを奪い去る
夢なら覚めた
だけど僕らはまだ何もしていない
進め
真昼の怠惰を断ち切るような素振りで浮かぶ
生まれ落ちた雲まで見下ろすように飛ぶ
街角 血の匂い 流線
遠く向こうから
何処かで聞いたような泣き声
ドロドロ流れる深く赤い月が現れて振られる采
出鱈目な日々を断ち切りたい
何食わぬ顔で終わらぬように
夜風が運ぶ淡い希望を乗せて
何処まで行けるか
それを拒むように世界は揺れて全てを奪い去る
夢なら覚めた
だけど僕らはまだ何もしていない
進め

AKFG is such a weird band in a way. when you see their lyrics written down, sometimes they sound nothing like what the lead singer is actually singing. (or just very distorted, like several lines in “Rewrite” and the very end of the TV Size “After Dark”. i honestly didn’t hear “yoru e susume” until i saw this, then went back and listened more carefully.) their songs are always great tho.
must say this is my favorite anime song of theirs. it beats the repetition of “Haruka Kanata” and the guitar riff at the beginning blows “Rewrite” outta the water. the elevator thing in the “Rewrite” animation is definitely cool, but the symbolism in this opening’s animation is also wonderful.
thanks for the translation as usual, keep up the good work. :3
