[Etrans - Lyrics] w-inds. / Humanizer

As some of you already know, w-inds. 30th single "You & I" is released today! Run to the nearest music store right now and purchase a copy if you are living in Japan/Taiwan/Hong Kong XDD!

I have to say, the songs which captivated me the most are You & I and I Vs. I. However, I guess my feeling towards all 4 new songs changed after I'd read the English translation of Humanizer.

This song is dedicated to the victims and people who suffered in the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami happened in March. And I think to fans who are used to w-inds. songs in the old days, all know that shungo is a name which can guarantee the BEST lyrics for songs like this.

And he DOES. Trust me, you'll love this songs thousands times more after understanding it. So check the Etrans below!

IT'S NOT ME WHO TRANSLATED THIS SONG. I JUST SHARE IT.

Special thanks to Melissa who spent time doing this great job ♥ Send your thank-you to her on Twitter if possible: @highsummoner :D

I can never live your life
but please let me stay by your side.
Together we can all cry
You'll smile again
People are so powerless
and reality is so merciless
and yet we accept everything and overcome it
and stand tall.
It's human nature, yeah.



Only two buses come here every day
The sound of silence you can't find in the restless city
Everyone is different, and has different things they can do.
Gathering things, sharing things, worrying...
...haven't you forgotten that?

We were made to realize
the true value of the Yamato people
Bending without breaking
symbols of those bearing "the unbearable"

I can never live your life
but just let me stay by your side
Together we can all smile
I'll smile with you again
When we meet, we greet each other
and have a normal conversation
and little by little find the "ordinary"
It's human nature, yeah

The pastry that curt guy gave you that day
That old woman's small hard-working hands
Everyone's sincerity, the bonds become vivid
Earnestness, seriousness, steadiness
all suit the rising sun
"That day, I let go of my family's hands...."
With what sort of feeling
should that person go on living..?

I can never live your life
The "usual" is nowhere to be found
Together we can all cry
It'll end in an instant
My sympathy cannot be expressed
with presumptious words
I just stayed quiet and held you tight
until your sobbing ended

...did you see the horsetails growing in the neighborhood?
Even the wistaria flowers, although drooping, bloomed bravely
The earth that was overcome by sorrow and had its time frozen
gave new life, a sturdy breath, properly bore fruit... my God.

I can never live your life
but please let me stay by your side.
Together we can all cry
You'll smile again
People are so powerless
and reality is so merciless
and yet we accept everything and overcome it
and stand tall.
It's human nature, yeah.

I can never live your life
but just let me stay by your side
Together we can all smile
I'll smile with you again
When we meet, we greet each other
and have a normal conversation
and little by little find the "ordinary"
It's human nature, yeah

I can never live your life
The "usual" is nowhere to be found
Together we can all cry
It'll end in an instant
My sympathy cannot be expressed
with presumptious words
I just stayed quiet and held you tight
until your sobbing ended
