Left Hand Lyrics

Cover art for Left Hand lyrics by Envy

This is one of my favorite Envy songs. There's something about the guitars that has this urgency of emotion that I love.

The lyrics above are correct (according to the booklet), but I thought I'd try my hand at translating what I understand the song to be saying into English (based on my knowledge of Japanese from growing up in Japan as a native speaker).

Put the forcefully erased emotions on lines Earless cells and the mind to solve the stolen cipher are already torn off A red arrow I cannot touch penetrates my body

Made up excuses reject the voice of the minority Responsibility is cast to the sky above Resistance crumbles so easily Discrimination is born A light I cannot grasp pierces my eye

The cursed thumb on my left hand runs away swiftly

With harsh sounds as weapons Glaring back at glaring eyes There is nothing but a subtle shift that comes That changes That is thrown away That paralyzes accepted norms Unleash the spellbound

My Interpretation
