天国 (Tengoku) (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro]
What if
If it’s only me in my world, then yeah
To hate someone
I could have gotten away with not knowing, but I can’t help it
No matter what
I can’t forgive you

[Verse 1]
The night is just long
People can’t throw them away
It’s unsightly
Even after all that’s happened
My heart moves seeing the morning sun

[Bridge]
If I hug you
It’s already the end
I hate my pureness that I believed
Those days when I loved you are more than anything
Important, loving, painful, and miserable

[Verse 2]
What if
Back then, on the blanket basking in the sun
The admirable you that curled in it
Stay just the way you are
How much
How much was it good
There’s no way to know anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, I’ll pick flowers again
Put my hands together
I’ll be heading there soon
Even if maggots spring up in my heart
I can still smell it
The warmth of that day
I love the days so bad

[Chorus]
What should I do?
However, in some cases, it is already
Part of the ugly pollution
If so, what should I do?
Should I just forget it?
Yeah, let’s go home and kiss

[Post-Chorus]
The “What should I do?”
What should I do?
This rotting body
Please adorn it
Don’t forget about only me

[Chorus]
If I hug you
It’s already the end
I hate my pureness that I believed
Those days when I loved you are more than anything
Important, loving, painful, and miserable

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, I’ll pick flowers again
Put my hands together
I’ll be heading there soon
Even if maggots spring up in my heart
I can still smell it
The warmth of that day
I love the days so bad

[Outro]
Ah, with the laughter of the angel
I’m still alive today
It’s almost time to come here
You as you were back then
If we could meet again
I’ll hold your hand properly this time

天国 (Tengoku) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The song opens with an emotional fracture. Mrs. GREEN APPLE explores the pain of betrayal in a world where, ideally, such anguish wouldn’t exist. The repeated “どうしても” (“no matter what”) emphasizes an irreconcilable conflict—an inner refusal to forgive someone who shattered their peace. The intro establishes a theme of innocence lost, poisoned by the intrusion of suffering.

[Verse 1]
Night becomes a metaphor for prolonged emotional darkness, while the refusal to let go of another person reveals deep human attachment. Despite knowing the pain, Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s lyrics show a heart that still responds to beauty—”朝日に心動いている” implies that even amid ruin, the sunrise can stir the soul. It’s a subtle nod to resilience amidst grief.

[Bridge]
In this section, the act of embracing someone becomes a symbolic final act—emotionally or literally. The singer blames their own naivety, symbolized by “white,” a color of innocence, now associated with regret. The paradox of loving someone so deeply that it becomes both precious and degrading is central here, revealing an internal war between cherished memories and self-contempt.

[Vesre 2]
Mrs. GREEN APPLE reminisces about a tender past—sunlit mornings and innocent warmth. The imagery of being wrapped in a comforter alludes to safety and purity. The longing for that version of the person to have remained unchanged suggests an irretrievable loss, making the present all the more painful. There’s a deep sense of nostalgia and irreversible change.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus blends spiritual imagery with decay. The act of picking flowers and joining hands evokes a ritualistic farewell, perhaps alluding to death. Despite inner rot (“蛆が湧いても”), the lingering scent of warmth implies that even in ruin, love’s memory can persist. The paradox of “ugly love” captures the beauty and horror of clinging to what once was.

[Chorus]
Here, Mrs. GREEN APPLE questions moral erosion—what to do when one becomes part of the ugliness they despise. The line “醜悪な汚染の一部” confronts the fear of becoming corrupted. The suggestion to “go home and kiss” offers a surreal contrast, like a desperate attempt to reclaim normalcy or love through mundane gestures, further highlighting emotional dissonance.

[Post-Chorus]
This repetition reinforces the unraveling self. The plea to “decorate this rotting body” is both literal and metaphorical, suggesting a desire for dignity or remembrance despite inner decay. The last line—”don’t forget me”—expresses a final wish to be remembered beyond the suffering, tying memory to identity.

[Chorus]
The chorus returns, underscoring the emotional climax. The repetition adds intensity, reaffirming the betrayal, the self-loathing, and the bitter irony of once finding joy in a love that now causes ruin. The language becomes almost ritualistic, as if the act of repeating the pain is necessary to purge it.

[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus echoes previous spiritual and decaying themes, linking love, death, and memory into a unified emotional landscape. Picking flowers and the mention of “蛆” (maggots) juxtapose life and decay again. The speaker clings to warmth from the past, even as it festers into something grotesque—this conflict defines the song’s haunting beauty.

[Outro]
The outro introduces the idea of heavenly laughter as a lifeline—perhaps a child’s laughter or a symbol of purity. It suggests that the protagonist continues to live because of that voice, anticipating reunion. There’s a promise of reconnection—of holding hands this time—as if hoping to redeem what was once lost through a more mindful, tender embrace.
