I am learning Japanese and I have tried my best to have the translation match up with the syllables of the song. If anyone can help I would appreciate it. I make song covers and I would really like to know more about the structure of keeping the syllables intact while being able to sing in Japanese.
There are two versions that I tried working on with the help of a native Japanese speaker and a near fluent Japanese speaker. They both told me that since there are certain English colloquial phrases that it is a bit hard for them to get it perfect. They feel they have gotten it close enough and corrected my mistakes.
Sorry for the romaji

Coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
I never
