But the last one has passed me by and left me behind.
I’ve always saved my dreams in my piggy bank for future use,
Even so, I don’t have a cent that I can spend.
Are you frustrated yet? Why don’t you try again?
I understand it. I understand now, but
I do not have a choice.
But no, oh no, I can’t forgive myself for not achieving anything.
I drag along my hammer, my hopeless future is the only way and
The siren in my heart has long been silenced.
Even so, if we are truly okay this way,
I’ll terminate the world to save myself
That guy got swallowed by the Tokyo Monster only recently.
It seems that the world and its ways have tampered with his head.
Oh, sure, everyone seemed happy in the past, but now I see
That his smile has been fallen prey to what they say.
Just like how you first sung, why don’t you try again?
Shut up, won’t you? Why don’t you shut up?
Because it’s not like I have a choice!
But no, oh no, I can’t forgive myself for not achieving anything.
I lack the talent others have, but what is talent in the first place?
I do not care if you want me to stop thinking.
I don’t care what happens to them, no longer.
I’ll terminate the world to save myself.
I have left everything,
Abandoned everything.
Right now only loneliness resounds within my soul.
Forgive me about the times when I was young,
Won’t you?
Why won’t you?
But no, oh no, I can’t forgive myself for not achieving anything.
In the end, it’s all so clear that I’m to blame for everything around me.
And, if that is so, I will not mind being alone.
I guess I will find a way to spread my awkward love.
Even so, if we are truly okay this way,
I’ll terminate the world to save myself
Now I understand more about

which was part of an earlier post.
My favourite part is:
"That guy got swallowed by the Tokyo Monster only recently.

And the overall feel of not having a choice or choosing.
And the bit about forgiveness and blaming yourself and wanting to be alone if that is so:
"Right now only loneliness resounds within my soul.

So the dreamer in Terminate the World is in eternal debt.
