Have any of you stumbled across the lyrics to Keep Tryin'? I've looked around but havent found them. So, unless anyone can come up with them somehow, I propose a Keep Tryin' lyrics project! I'll wait for any word on whether or not anyone actually has lyrics - but if not, I'll try transcribing them myself. I got the gist of the song but some parts are fuzzy, so the parts I don't get you can try your luck on - and hopefully we'll be able to do the whole thing!

Yay! We'll all be able to sing along now ;)

I don't care about anything
Dou demo ii tte kao shinagara
zutto zutto inotteita
Naimono nedari
Chotto ya sotto de manzoku dekinai
Dakara Keep Tryin'

Juu-ji no oowarai bangumi, shigoto no tsukare iyashite mo
Hitori ga sukoshi iya ni naru yo
Souiu no mo daiji to omou kedo

Kyonen yori mendoukusagari ni natteru zo
Chousensha nomi moraeru gohoubi hoshii no

I don't care about anything
Chotto chikoku shita asa mo
Koko kara ganbarou yo
Nando demo kitai suru no baka mitai
Nankan ja nai
Dakara Keep Tryin'

Honto wa dare yori hangurii
Kimochi no midarekakushite mo
Maiasa, yowakime na sugao utsusu kagami, taiji shitai yo

Tsukiyo no negai, utsukushii mono dakeredo
Hyouteki ni natte, doro ni tobikonde
Lady let's go!

I don't care about anything
Kuuru na poozu kimenagara
Jitsu wo iu to tatakatteta
Taisetsu na inochi, tottemo kinishi na
Anata wa sukoshi yasuminasai

Time is money
Shourai kokkakoumuin da nante iu na, yume ga nai na
Aijou yori money?
Daarin wa sarariiman datte ii jan
Ai ga areba

I don't care about anything
Dou demo ii tte kao shinagara
Zutto zutto inotteita
Naimono nedari
Motto da motto da manzoku dekinai
Dakara Keep Tryin'

Donburakokko
Yo no naka, ukishizumi ga hageshii
Donna toki demo kachi ga kawaranai no wa, tada anata

Shounen wa itsumademo itsumademo kataomoi
Jounetsu ni, onedan tsukerarenai
Otousan Keep Tryin' Tryin'
Okaasan Keep Tryin' Tryin'
Oniichan, Shashou-san, Oyomesan Keep Tryin' Tryin'

here you go

I don't care about anything
While making a face like, "OK, Whatever"
I've always, always been praying
I want what I don't have
I can't be satisfied that easily
So I Keep Tryin'



Watching a 10 o'clock comedy show
Working off my stress from work
I don't like being alone
I think that kinda stuff is important



This year everything seems like a real drag
I want the reward that only challengers receive



I don't care about anything
Even if I'm running a little late in the morning
I'm gonna try my best
How many times have I stupidly got my hopes up?
There are no barriers
That's why I keep tryin'



The truth is, I'm hungrier than anybody else
Even though I try and hide my messed up feelings
Every morning, I want to destroy this mirror
Which reflects my weak natural face



A wish on a moonlight night; it is a beautiful thing
But become the target, jump in the mud
Lady, let's go!



I don't care about anything
While deciding on a cool pose
To tell you the truth, I've been fighting
It's such a precious life; You'll have to
Reach for each and every bit of rest.



Time is money
Don't you dare say, "My dream is to be a politician"
Don't you have any dreams?
Money rather than love?
My darling is a businessman
But that's alright, but only if there's love



I don't care about anything
While making a face like, "OK, Whatever"
I've always, always been praying
I want what I don't have
I can't be satisfied that easily
So I keep tryin'



Bobbing up and down in this
World of ours can be so fierce
No matter the time, the value doesn't change
That is 'cause you just...



Boys are always, always stuck with unrequited love
With passion, with passion
You can't put a price on it
Father, keep tryin' tryin'
Mother, keep tryin' tryin'
Brother, Mr. Conductor, Ms. Bride
Keep Tryin' Tryin'



Boys are always, always stuck with unrequited love
With passion, with passion
You can't put a price on it
Father, keep tryin' tryin'
Mother, keep tryin' tryin'
Brother, Mr. Conductor, Ms. Bride
Keep Tryin' Tryin'



Boys are always, always stuck with unrequited love
With passion, with passion
You can't put a price on it
Father, keep tryin' tryin'
Mother, keep tryin' tryin'
Brother, Mr. Conductor, Ms. Bride
Keep Tryin' Tryin'

Yeah the lyrics for Keep Tryin are also here on Utada Net in the Discography & Lyrics section. Just find the song. I like the lyrics both in Japanese and English. It's a very inspiring song.

That's why I love her~ hahaha
