Translator notes:

¹ I did not translate "hentai" because it is a term that I do not understand 100% the translation in this context, it may be a simple "pervert" but in this context it sounds like an ideologically filthy person, not sexually as anyone would initially think. I thought of something as 'obscene', since it seems to criticize the visual kei scene, it may be something like 'the scene is obscene'. (in context I would read like "in a moment we'll be a minority, and that's obscene")

² The Japanese word used here is “起死回生” which means (according to rikai-kun): revival of the dead; recovering from a hopeless situation; resuscitation.

I think that the meaning is related with hope, not physical death itself. (not sure)

Edition Notes:

I posted the first version of this song translation on Feb 28, 2017 and updated it on Aug 26, 2019. I did only a few minor translation fixes and adaptations to make it sound more natural.

I also edited the romaji, this one had a lot of errors, sorry.
