Translation of the song ナルシスト artist Kaoru Akimoto

絵のような顔立ちね

They praise your picture-perfect facial features

あきらめの微笑みたたえ

And your coy smile

何が美しいのよ

But tell me, what's actually beautiful?

思い出が　物語のよう

Those memories play out like a story

ショーウィンドウに映る　自分の唇に

In the display window, you kiss a reflection of your own lips

あなたは口づけ　吸い込まれて消えそう

And seem to get sucked in and disappear

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたは　すれ違う男の視線まで集めて

Gathering up the constant gazes from men passing by

子供のように一人

As if you are a child,

部屋の隅　ひざをかかえて

You sit and hold your knees in the corner of your room

何が悲しませるの？

But what makes you so sad?

かすれてる　はかないため息

You're losing your voice and your sighs are fragile

浅い眠りの中　何を夢見てるの？

What do you dream about during your pale sleep,

うわ言のように　自分の名前呼んで

while calling out your own name as if you're in delirium?

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたの心まで　誰も触れずにながめるだけ

You just focus on your own heart, without touching anyone else's

どんなに　素敵に泣いてくれるの

How beautifully do you pretend to cry

さよならを　切り出したら

When you say goodbye after a long pause?

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたは　すれ違う男の視線まで集めて

Gathering up the constant gazes from men passing by

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたの心まで　誰も触れずにながめるだけ

You just focus on your own heart, without touching anyone else's

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくのひとりで

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

ナルシスト　見つめてあげるあなたの噓

I'll sit back and watch alone as you lie to yourself

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたは　すれ違う男の視線まで集めて

Gathering up the constant gazes from men passing by

ナルシスト　なんてキレイになってゆくの

What narcissist is gonna become beautiful?

あなたの心まで　誰も触れずにながめるだけ

You just focus on your own heart, without touching anyone else's
