If you want to know my dream from long ago
It was to become a person like my mother
And it came true, I am just like you
Today again I will meet with men I don’t know
I don’t even shed tears
Even if I throw up, nothing comes out-- It’s so funny
If you’re thinking that’s pitiable or something
Then you are sorely mistaken
I am a beautiful beast
Bow to me, come begging* to me, you ugly pigs
Both your expensive suit and your facade of integrity*
Throw ‘em off, strip ‘em off, reveal your true desires*
“It’s like I’ve really fallen in love with you”
Come on, say it, you loser with a ring on your finger
Your damn face just looks like, just looks like
Yukichi of the 10,000 Yen bill
Maybe you’re a businessman I don’t know but
Your prideful side is really something, huh
Don’t belittle me by saying nonsense like “I chose you”
You are the one being hunted
I should have already made millions and yet
Why is this all that is left?
Money, and medicine, and pain--
I’m completely lacking anything and everything
I am a beautiful beast
Worship me, praise me, you pathetic sheep
Intellect and badges and brute strength
Realize it’s all meaningless, and pant like a puppy
I am beautiful, right?
Biting and tearing,* I hunt prey (you)
On that summer’s day, I died once
You had said it was my fault
Family (you), and normalcy (I), and the future, all of it
Was destroyed, I destroyed it
You know I’m a shell of a person and so
Don’t ask me about my dreams for the future
Will I be breathing tomorrow?
This world and me and my mother all don’t care
If you want to know my dream from long ago
It was to become a person like my mother
