Lyric

The Beggar (Live in Singapore 2023)

Takashi Obana

ふやけまくった心の中には　あなたの風も届きやしない　My spineless heart cannot catch your breeze

すべての終わりを目前にして　惰眠を貪る愚か者　I am a fool idling my time away just on the verge of a catastrophe

安物の毒に身を任せ　あなたのささやきも聞こえない　Resigning myself to cheap poison, I am unable to hear your whisper

油のように滴る色情　ただれた肌を舐めつくした　The lust dripping like an oil fully lick my inflamed skin

散らばり続ける無垢な心　バラ色の明日を待ちきれない　My innocent heart keeps scattering everywhere, dreaming of a rosy tomorrow

キラキラ光るおもちゃの箱は、焼けつくヘドロを吐き出した　A glittering toy box opened and spat burning sludge!

懐かしいあなたの香りを思出しては、泣きじゃくる　I loudly sob remembering your nostalgic scent

暗闇を永遠にさまい続ける哀れな乞食　I am a pathetic beggar forever wandering in the darkness

恩知ずの裏切り者に愛をつかし、切り捨てる　Disgusted with the ungrateful traitor, you cut me off

美しいあなたの翼は、未練もなく羽ばたいた　Your beautiful wings gracefully flapped with no regret

砂漠のカビを吸い込んで　I’ve inhaled mold in the desert

焼けつく肺に殺された　I was killed by burning lungs

    Cry of Full-Montysm

    Takashi Obana

"Rock and roll is the cry of full-montysm." I, Takashi Obana, have upheld this statement and continued to write and sing brutally honest songs. As the world recovered from lockdown, I went on a live performance frenzy. From that madness, I have curated a selection of tracks to present here!

First album: "Regression to Jomon." Second album: "Seventeenth Basement Floor." Through singing the songs I wrote, I have experienced numerous soul-stirring encounters and overwhelming happiness.

In this brief life, there are meetings and partings. That's precisely why we burn and shine unconditionally. There is no inherent meaning in that. In this live album, I've packed in the scent of passion. I hope you savor it to the fullest. With all my love, from the cry of full-montyst...
