Genius Translations
ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION - 24:00 (English Translation)
Through big city skies are muddy
Echoing chimes turn today into yesterday
If anything is to be made in the midst of these passing days, I'll make a vow
You, who were brought to me by a strange twist of fate and the crevices of our unfulfilled days
My heart begins to move as neon lights begin to shine
On ceaseless night lights and beyond
Futility passes between the east and the west
And though the night closes in on itself
I'll overcome today to get a little tipsy on tomorrow that's sure to come
I just can't sleep for no apparent reason
"What shall we do tomorrow?"
Words we'd gradually lost, we've become so muddied
The breadth of the world, the narrowness of our hearts
Couldn't see through smudged, twin lenses
You, who were brought to me by a strange twist of fate and the crevices of our unfulfilled days
My heart begins to move as neon lights begin to shine
On ceaseless night lights and beyond
Futility passes between the east and the west
And though the night closes in on itself
I'll overcome today to get a little tipsy on tomorrow that's sure to come
I just can't sleep for no apparent reason
I just can't sleep
