The lyrics are so beautiful, especially helpful for someone who sometimes feels their existence is meaningless.
The subtitles on the video are a bit off. Here is the real translation:
Embrace your dreams, burdened with life
You're born and then you disappear inside the washing machine that is the Milky Way
In the first breath, everyone understood the world
Exhausted, cry as much as you can
"I should just die...", cook these thoughts together with your meals and get through your days
Let me hear the melody you sang with your first breath
It would have been nice if you had been able to say how you felt with your first breath
It was probably beautiful when your life was given a name in it's first breath
Your first breath was a call for the future from somewhere
Get through the nights, get through the mornings
Embrace your dreams, get through your days
Get through the nights, get through the mornings
Embrace the darkness, get through your days

Ryu … you speak Japanese? Very cool that you are able to do a better translation of these lyrics.
Thanks for sharing this … I think we all feel alone and struggle with existence in this very strange and bizarre time. Keep sharing …

i had some help on this translation …..i know enough Japanese to get by i guess ^^…..but thank you…..i will keep bringing u the greatness that is The Back Horn ^^
what's it like to be an ambassador….i blog a lot….i'm thinking of becoming one….
Ohhhh, I've thought about becoming an ambassador as well! I'm not one … and for the time being that's good for me. There's a link somewhere on the Gaia page that talks about the Ambassadors and their role here. I know several Ambassadors and then I know a couple who used to be and un-did it. Send me an email and we can talk about it more!
