Kameleo - Daishou wo Shiharai Bunmei wo Kau

Pay a Price, Buy a Civilization
Music: Takashi / Lyrics: Kouichi

Kanji
代償を支払い「文明」「深い歴史」は続いてきたんだ
失ったモノの価値 それは一体なんだろうか?

望みどおり あれも これも それも 全ては楽に手に入る
思いどおり いつでも どこでもこの脳内に写し出されてる

進化は文明にテクノロジーを授けた
過去が未来に与えた 文明の力学はどこに 向かってるの?


破滅への招待状? それとも人類の進展?
答えは僕たち 次第かもね…

縄文人は石器を使い狩りをしていたとされてる
現代人はインターネットを使いピザをとる

進化は人類に堕落と悦楽を植え
未来が過去に学んだ 文明の力学はどこに いざなってる?

手に入れた「ソレ」の価値 知らずに代償を払う
まやかしの果てに 未来は続く

裏切りなんかじゃなく これは警告に過ぎない
過去が未来に与えた 文明の力学はどこに 向かってるの?

破滅への招待状? それとも人類の進展?
答えは僕たち 現代人が握っているのかも

手に入れた「ソレ」の価値と同じだけの何かを
失っている事を忘れんなよ



Romaji
Daishou wo shiharai “Bunmei” “Fukai rekishi” wa tsudzuitekitanda
Ushinatta mono no kachi Sore wa ittai nan darou ka?

Nozomidoori Are mo Kore mo Sore mo Subete wa raku ni te ni iru
Omoidoori Itsudemo Dokodemo kono nounai ni utsushidasareteru

Shinka wa bunmei ni tekunorojii wo tsuketa
Kakko ga mirai ni ataeta Bunmei no rikigaku wa doko ni Mukatteruno?

Hametsu he no shoutaijou? Soretomo jinrui no shinten?
Kotae wa bokutachi Shidai ka mo ne…

Joumon hito wa sekki wo tsukai kari wo shiteita tosareteru
Gendaijin wa intaanetto wo tsukai piza wo toru

Shinka wa jinrui ni daraku to etsuraku wo ue
Mirai ga kakko ni mananda Bunmei no rikigaku wa doko ni Izanatteru?

Te ni ireta “sore” no kachi Shirazu ni daishou wo harau
Mayakashi no hateni Mirai wa tsudzuku

Uragiri nanka janaku Kore wa keikoku ni suginai
Kakko ga mirai ni ataeta Bunmei no rikigaku wa doko ni Mukatteruno?

Hametsu he no shoutaijou? Soretomo jinrui no shinten?
Kotae wa bokutachi Gendanjin ga nigitteiru no kamo

Te ni ireta “sore” no kachi to onaji dake no nanka wo
Ushinatteiru koto wo wasurenna yo



English
We pay the price “Civilization” and “A lengthy history” continued on
The value of the things lost What on earth is that?

As we desire That This And that too We obtain them all easily
As we please Whenever Wherever it comes to mind

To evolve, civilizations used technology
The past gave to the future The dynamics of society Where are they headed?

Is this an invitation to destruction? Or the advancement of mankind?
The answer is us It must depend on us…

Cavemen innovated stone tools to hunt
Modern men use the internet to order pizza

Evolution lead mankind to corruption and pleasure
The future studied the past The dynamics of society Where are we directing them?

Without knowing the value of “that” thing we picked up, we pay for it
Swindling as much as possible The future continues

It’s not exactly betrayal This is just advice
The past gave to the future The dynamics of society Where are they headed?

Is this an invitation to destruction? Or the advancement of mankind?
The answer is us I wonder if the modern man will grasp on to it

Only something with the same value as “that” thing we received
Won’t forget the thing we lose
