Song Lyrics Translation - 06-02-2008, 05:51 AM

Hey everybody! Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening, depending on where you are! My band and I have to play a song in Japanese at an upcoming gig and I was wondering if anyone could do me a HUUUUUGE favor and translate these lyrics into solid Japanese, romaji preferred. Thanks a bunch!

The lyrics:

On this dark journey
My dream flies above withered fields
I wish to metamorphose
Because I live with such disgust
Farewell
I won't embrace a lie
I can't decide between truth and illusion

There is hope in darkness
We're all frantically searching
To be accepted and numb the pain
Be yourself or you will suffocate

In the riot of darkness
There is a blissful transience
If I could become a bird
I would fly faraway
I just want to shed my skin

Don't be afraid, you are not alone
We're all frantically searching
To be accepted and numb the pain
Be yourself or you will suffocate

I am an orphan of love
Such a wretched malcontent I've become

There is hope in darkness
We're all frantically searching
To be accepted and numb the pain
Be yourself or you will suffocate

That is more than huge, but pretty much impossible to expect for free on a forum (no offense, but especially as your first post). Timing, rhyming....without hearing the music.

I would recommend finding a song in Japanese and covering it, rather than trying to write a song in Japanese (especially if you don't know Japanese).

It doesn't need to fit music or anything. Just a direct translation.
