Deep down

The scream of life, into the darkness of cessation

Once resolved, the words dispersed

Into deep, deep slumber I may sleep

With red fingers I close those eyes

As if in awe, as the precepts that drown in blood

As the rain that falls over the wound, carve out the pain

In a wandering crowd, without realizing a place to arrive

There was still something missing

I don't understand, but I want to; tears we don't pick up and shed again

I can't get through, I can't hear you; the voice I cling to brings back jokes you told

Lost things forgotten, a figure nesting in the crevices

How long have you been there, smiling

I feel you deep deep deep deep down

Awakened by the freezing rain of a moment

Murmuring fables dispersed

Once broken free from faint, faint illusion

Its falsehoods' contours revealed

As if falling prone, as a wedge that pierces through my chest

The more I hold my breath in protest, the more my memories fall apart

A hope worn out, seared into the faded world

Simply tied up

I can't leave but I want to; without healing, the omens coil around us

I can't go back, the voice moving through without an echo, my strumming heartbeat

With what I wished in hand, engulfed in sweetness and loss

How long have I walked for

I call you deep deep deep deep down

Toelichting van de vertaler:

This is my take on translating this song, not only the meanings of words, but hopefully its impression and atmosphere as well.

Aimer said the following about this song:

TVアニメ「チェンソーマン」エンディングテーマの1曲として、「Deep down」を創りました。担当させていただく回のエピソードを中心に、作品から受けたインスピレーションを膨らませて、自分自身の想いを重ねながら創った曲です。この曲が、作品を愛するみなさんの心に、少しでも何かを残せたら幸せです。

"I've written 'Deep down' as one of the ending themes to the anime Chainsaw Man. I took inspiration from the core of the episode that I was assigned to, together with my own feelings, to create this song. I hope that it may leave something in the hearts of those who love the show".
