TRAUMA
I have been listening back again to Ayumi's song 'Trauma'.
Interesting Lyrics...
今日の嬉しかった顔今日の悲しかった顔
昨日弱かった自分と明日きっと強い自分と
あなたなら誰に見せてる私なら誰に
見せればいい
時間なんてものはとても時として残酷で
でもその残酷さゆえに今が作られて
人を求めやまないのは一瞬の開放が
やがて訪れるか恐怖に買っているなら
足元で揺れている花に差益つかないままで
通りすぐいてきた私は鏡に迎えなくなっている
今日の嬉しかった顔今日の悲しかった顔
昨日癒された傷と今日深く開いた傷を
あなたなら誰に見せてる私なら誰に
見せればいい
与えられた自分だけの正気と凶器が合って
その幸らも否定せずに存在するなら
無駄なもの溢れてしまったもの役立たないものも
迷わずに選ぶよそう私が私であるためにね
幸せの基準はいつも自分の物差しで
決めてきたから
今日の嬉しかった顔今日の悲しかった顔
昨日癒された傷と今日開きだしたとしても
あなたなら誰に見せてる私なら誰に
見せればいい
(How to pronounce them? See

(In English, it means...)
Today's happy face, today's sad face.
Yesterday's weak self, tomorrow's strong self.
If it's you, who are you showing it to? If it's me, who should I show it to?
Time is sometimes a cruel thing,
but the present is made by that cruelty.
Unceasingly searching for someone, an instant of release
soon triumphs over the visiting fear.
As I don't even notice the flowers shaking before my feet,
I can't even look at myself in the mirror.
Today's happy face, today's sad face.
Yesterday's healed wounds and today's deeply opened wounds.
If it's you, who are you showing it to? If it's me, who should I show it to?
The sanity and insanity that I was given and are mine only,
Both exist together without negating the other.
Futile things, spilled things, and useless things...
I'll choose with confidence, so I am of myself.
Because I have always defined happiness with my own standards.
Today's happy face, today's sad face.
Even if yesterday's healed wounds have opened today,
If it's you, who can you show it to? If it's me, I want to show it to that person.
My fellow christian friends, I wonder who I can show Ayumi to... ;)
because you make me feel special.
