Awake
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how unfortunate
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how sad
Like rain on a sunny day
When we walk with our breath held
It’s almost as if we’re actually alive
We can’t do anything though
Let’s find the bad guys
Let’s protect the weak guys
We can’t mess a single thing up
Or else they’ll think we’re weird
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how unfortunate
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how dispiriting
Then the town became empty
Messy graffiti drawn by adults
Back then it was actually like we were constantly-
Living in fear of God
How about we make our wishes come true, we said
Our hearts were racing, they still are now
The future which passed by long long ago,
We longingly yearn for it
I’m awake
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how unfortunate
I’m awake, I’m awake and I’m still here
This isn’t just a dream, how sad
They lied to me when they said ‘when it rains it shines’
We’re always constantly under shadowy clouds
I think I’ll sleep better than usual today
That’s all we want, that’s all we need
I cannot call this state of awakeness as beautiful as you would
When I’m awake, I can no longer see anything with you
That’s it then, we’ll meet again in a dream
That’s it then, we’ll meet again in a dream

About translator
うつつ (typically written with the 現 kanji as 現つ) can mean both "reality" and "consciousness" in English. Wowaka's name used for his earlier vocaloid projects was 現実逃避Ｐ (Escape from Reality-P). As wowaka's passing was sudden and shocking news to everyone, people wished it was a dream or a lie. It unfortunately is not.
