Chronophobia by　2進P

This was requested by ChocolaTears

I have to say, this song really grew on me. I find myself singing it in the shower sometimes, but I always stumble on a few lines. I also love how her voice was handled here. You can almost hear the frustration

Chronophobia is the fear of time. It's when you hear that ticking of the clock in the silence before you fall asleep. Some find it comforting, but this particular girl doesn't find it peaceful at all. It just won't stop ticking. It's ticking away her life. Eventually, it's going to stop ticking, and everything'll be over. She doesn't want it to control her life so much. She just wants the regular silence, but no. Even when she removes all the clocks in her home, she can still hear it keeping time, ticking away at her life by the second.

IT WON'T STOP TICKING

I imagine it's something like that.

I'm translating songs to practice my Japanese grammar and get used to seeing kanji, so this translation may not be the most accurate, but I do try my best~ If you wanna tell me something that's wrong with the translation, go ahead, be brutal.

Romaji:

kirai da nani mo ka mo jikan no kage
eien ni kono mama kamawanaide kure
shinratsu na kotoba mo imi nasanai hodo

ano tsuki ga mata michikake suru dare dare no tame
fukaku hizunda noizu ga sugu soba de kikoeru

English:

Time is projected so clearly; it goes on everywhere
Beautiful light deceives my eyes as usual
I slopily tore the flickering image that's always next to me into pieces
You know, even if I close my eyes it's still there

I dislike everything about time
I don't care at all for evernity
The bitter words and their meanings don't accomplish anything
They've left intense scars and won't stop

Why exactly is that moon still waxing and waning?
I can hear that deeply warped noise so close to me

I run a tightly gripped knife across my face
wanting that unpleasant sound to disappear

Don't touch me, don't come near me, sounds of time
Since I'm begging, just kill me already
Why, why do I keep seeing it
Please, stop it. Shut my eyes

There is no smile in my eyes
There is only the unstopping memory someone has violated me with

I hate everything about time
I don't care at all for eternity
Why, why do I keep seeing it
Please, stop it. Let me sleep.
