Hi! this is my first time posting something in the forum :) However, I've been working on a translation of this song and here is my first draft. I know that I've Sound songs are complicated to translate because they use a lot of metaphors and are pretty symbolic, but I love MELL so I thought I'd give it a shot
冷たいガラスに 指先滑らせて
欠けた月をなぞる
張り付く涙は 私の血を洗った
青い鳥凍え落ちるの
I slide my fingertips along the cold glass
tracing the moon that is missing
the sticky tears washed away my blood
a blue bird freezes and falls over
時間を止めてあなたに捧げた
嘘を返して
人生の続き退屈な夢 そう
探せないの翼が壊れて
錆びて亡くした
終わりのない悲しみが廻る
I stopped time and gave it to you
giving you back your lies
the continuation of this path (life) is a boring dream
the wings I can't search for break
and become rusty, so I lost them.
the endless sadness goes around
重ねた幻で素肌に赤を描く
裂けた胸鮮やかに咲く
I paint red on my bare skin with the illusion that repeats itself
and my torn chest blooms vividly *
息を止めてあなたが求めた
心壊して
傷跡さえ残らないよう そう
祈りさえも何も知らない
雨に流れて
焼き尽くした砂の風になる
Holding my breath I longed for you
to break my heart
without leaving behind even a scar
not knowing even how to pray
I drift in the rain
and become a scorching sandy wind
時間を止めてあなたに捧げた
嘘を返して

* I really don't understand this line very well... I think it's the singer who is painting using the illusion, but it isn't very clear to me, I'd really appreciate if someone could help me out with this xD
