That was the longest song I've ever seen/heard.

Jap Lyrics
namida ga ato kara afuredashite
saigo no egao ga nijinde mienai no
ikanaide   ikanaide   koko ni ite
sora e    hikari kakenukete-yuku [1]
konna ni chiisa na watashi dakedo
anata wo dare yori sei ippai aishita
arigatou    ikutsumo no

tewata shite kureta yo ne [2]
"sono toki zutto, watashi wa [3]
kie kaketa hikoukigumo wo mite-ita..."
wasurenaide
hitori ja nai
hanarete mo te wo tsunaide-iru [4]
hajimete no koi   hajimete shitta
konna kanashimi ga    aru koto
nanika ga shoumetsu shite mo nanika ga
futatabi yadotte
wakare ni kureta hohoemi wa tsuyoku ikiyou to yuu

English Lryics-
As my tears keep overflowing one after another,
I can't see your last smile through their blur.
Please don't go, please don't go... Stay here.
Light bursts through the sky. [1]
Even this insignificant me
loved you more than anyone, with all my soul.
Thank you for all of
the precious feelings
you've given to me. [2]
"When you took off, I was [3]
watching for a long time as the vapor trail disappeared."
Please don't forget
You're not alone.
Even if we're apart, we can still carry on hand-in-hand. [4]
Even if something lapses away, something will
live once again.
When you gave me a smile as we parted, it was
your message for me
to truly live with all my heart. [5]
I just know that we'll see each other someday.
If we're together,
even if we're far apart, we can gaze in each others' eyes
Let's bet everything on all our hopes and dreams.
Let's promise each other
that we'll hold on to the intensity we felt
that day,
and live the future that blooms
in tomorrow.

Translator's Notes:
[1] "Sora" (sky) is the reading given for the kanji for "chuu" (space/universe)
[2] "Tewata shite" literally means "to personally deliver."
[3] It literally just says "That time," but based on the next line I interpreted it to mean "when you took off."
[4] It literally says "our hands are linked"
[5] It literally says "to live strongly."

[Princess Garnet]

This song just depresses me...

Komm Susser Tod; Come Sweet Death
From End of Evangelion

I know, I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself
I thought I could
live for no one else
But not through all the hurt and pain
Its time for me to respect
the ones you love
mean more than anything
So with sadness in my heart
I feel the best thing I could do
is end it all
and leave forever
whats done is done, it feels so bad
what once was happy now is sad
I'll never love again
my world is ending

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now the guilt is all mine
cant live without the trust from the ones you love.
I know we can't forget the past
you cant forget love and pride
because of that its killing me inside

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down, tumbling down,
tumbling down,
it all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down,
in my heart of hearts,
I know that I called never love again
I've lost everything
everything
that matters to me,
matter in this world

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now all the guilt is mine
cant live without
the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
you can't forget love and pride
because of that, its killing me inside

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down, tumbling down,
tumbling down
it all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down
It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down, tumbling down,
tumbling down
it all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down

Lyrics: ........ uhm........ no, can't post anything here ^^

[Princess Garnet]

Toki ni Ai wa; At Times, Love...
From Adsolence of Utena

This rose is our destiny, ; ripping us apart.
Our hands have been torn apart...
Even when I sleep,
as I embrace my thoughts and dreams for you,
they reach to the ends of the world!
At times, love is strong,
so much it even wounds people's hearts, but Ah
in the midst of the courage that grants our dreams,
a light always shines forth,
(becoming) a single power...
<b>[Instrumental]</b>
This rose is our destiny, &nbsp; leading us
to now meet once again.
Because I've never forgotten
our promise,
I've finally made it this far!
At times, love nobly
seeks out, to pierce people's hearts. Ah
The ones protected by the ones who protect
They always shine forth
To become a single power...
<b>[Instrumental]</b>
At times, love is strong,
so much it even wounds people's hearts, but Ah
in the midst of the courage that grants our dreams,
a light always shines forth.
Love is strong,
so much so that it can move people's hearts, but Ah
If we are together, then without a doubt
we can change the world, and everything will
become one power.

Zankoku na Tenshi no TE-ZE; Cruel Angel's Thesis
I've got way to many anime songs in my MP3s

TV op. theme

Like a cruel angel,
young boy, become the legend! [2]
<b>[Short Instrumental Intro]</b>
A blue wind is now
knocking at the door to your heart, and yet
you are merely gazing at me
and smiling.
Something gently touching--
you're so intent on seeking it out,
that you can't even see your fate yet,
with such innocent eyes.
But someday I think you'll find out
that what's on your back
are wings that are for
heading for the far-off future.
The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos, [3]
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky [universe] and shining, [4]
young boy, become the legend!
<b>[Instrumental]</b> [5]
Sleeping for a long time
in the cradle of my love
The morning is coming when you alone will be called
by a messenger of dreams.
Moonlight reflects off
the nape of your slender neck.
Stopping time all throughout the world
I want to confine them, but...
So if two people being brought together by fate
has any meaning, [6]
I think that it is a "bible"
for learning freedom. [7]
The cruel angel's thesis.
The sorrow then begins.
You held tight to the form of life
when you woke up from that dream.
You shine brighter than anyone else.
Young boy, become the legend!
The cruel angel's thesis
will soon take flight through the window,
with surging, hot pathos,
if you betray your memories.
Embracing this sky and shining,
young boy, become the legend!

Translator's Notes:
[1] "TE-ZE" is the Japanese spelling/pronunciation of "these," which is German for "thesis."
[2] The word "shinwa" actually means "myth" ("legend" would be "densetsu"), but I think it sounds better as "legend."
[3] "Atsui" (hot) can also mean "intense, passionate." "Pathos" is "the quality or power in life or art of evoking a feeling of pity or compassion; pity; suffering; sorrow."
[4] "Sora" (sky) is the reading given for the kanji for "uchuu" (universe).
[5] In some versions of this song, there is singing in this part. Unfortunately, I can't tell what they're singing (there's too much overlap). I think the last thing they sing could be "ai ga fusei," which can be roughly translated into "Love is a sin (wrongdoing)." If you have any idea what they're singing, please e-mail me. Arigatou!
[6] The kanji used for the "a" in "aeta" is not the normal kanji used in "au" (to meet). It's the first kanji in "ouse" (encounter, tryst) and has more of a connotation of meeting by fate or being brought together by fate, not just meeting. (Interestingly, a dictionary I have gives the meaning of "au," when written with this kanji, as "to meet (with drama or pathos)")
[7] The "watashi wa sou" is probably "watashi wa sou omou." And "bible" in this case isn't referring to *the* Bible. "Bible" can also mean "guide book, how-to book, a book valued for its use as a reference," like in "a handyman's bible," or "a bird-watcher's bible."

NOTE: Yes, this translation is different from the one presented on the Evangelion videos & DVDs produced by ADV. There's a reason for that: mine is more literal and correct. When ADV "translated" this song, they decided to change the words so that the English "translation" could be sung to the beat of the original song (this is commonly called dubtitling). But in the process of changing the "translation" to fit the beat of the song, they had to take rather big liberties with it, until their "translation" was no longer correct. The essence of the meaning remains, but it is largely incorrect. I, on the other hand, did a true translation, not a "dubtitle," so my translation on this page is, indeed, more literal and correct than ADV's translation that they put on their Eva tapes and DVDs.

I'd like to post the lyrics to the Hellsing OP
but I have no idea what they are... does anyone...
I mean, It sounds english... bit when when you really listen to it... I'm not entirely sure. Maybe I'm overlistening.

Blind Game Again
