Here is a good translation :) Courtesy of: http://forums.boajjang.com/index.php?showtopic=126620


I tried to contain it but it wouldn?t disappear
Slowly, it sinks back to the bottom of the lake.

Trying for both, but obtaining neither
Tiring of contradictions, my heart becomes a little heavy

They say running away only makes you more afraid
I thought I knew?

I can?t just say ?Don?t worry, I?m sure one day??
Asking for pity due to a lack of courage won?t let me see
My own internal passage (Show me love)
Internal passage (Baby show me love)
It?s all in my head (Can you show me love)
It?s all in my head (Not a dream)

The purple traffic light shines and my thoughts come to a halt.
Only my insecurities don?t stop.

I am weak, but I don?t really think that?s anything to be embarrassed about

In reality, everyone should hold a deep darkness
Be hurt, struggle, yell and shout
And find the root of the pain (Show me love)
Find the root (Baby show me love)
It?s all in my head (Can you show me love)
It?s all in my head (Not a dream)

Let?s forget the theories we built
Once you climb a mountain it?s just a descent

In reality, even the deepest love is not perfect
It?s something only you can give to yourself
The courage to recognize oneself (Show me love)
The courage to recognize (Baby show me love)

In reality, the moment you realize you were just living in a dream
Is the first time you take a step with your own power
My own internal passage (Show me love)
Internal passage (Baby show me love)
It?s all in my head (Can you show me love)
It?s all in my head

Does anyone know how to translate the Kanji into Romanji? That would be great! I can't read Kanji to save my life at the moment :(

Osae konda sore wa kiezu
Mizu umi no soko e, yukkuri to mata shizundeku

Nito wo oumono, itto mo uzu
Mujun ni tsukarete sukoshi kokoro ga omokunaru

Nigetara yokei kowaku naru dakette
(Inside my lavender dreams)
Wakkate wa iru tsumori

Shinpai shinakute mo itsuka kitto, nante ienai
Jishin no nasa ni amaetecha mienu
Watashi no uchi naru passage Show me Love
Uchi naru passage Baby show me love
It's all in my head Can you show me love
It's all in my head Not a dream

Murasaki no shingou ga hikatte, shikouteishi
Fuan dake ga tomaranai

Watashi wa yowai dakedo sore wa betsu ni
(Inside my lavender dreams)
Hazukashii koto jyanai

Jissai dare shimo fukai yami wo kakaeterya ii
Toki ni yande, mogaite, sakende sakende
Itami no moto wo tadotte Show me love
Moto wo tadotte Baby show me love
It's all in my head Can you show me love
It's all in my head Not a dream

Kizuki agetara seori (theory) wasureyo
Yama wa nobottara oriru mono yo

Jissai don na ni fukai ai mo kanpeki jya nai
Jibun de shika jibun ni shite agerarenai
Jibun wo mitomeru courage Show me love
Mitomeru courage Baby show me love

Jissai yume bakari mite ita to kizuita toki
Hajimete jiriki de ippo fumidasu
Watashi no uchi naru passage
Uchi naru passage
It's all in my head
It's all in my head

Thank you a_kikoo! I'm guessing you can read and translate Japanese into English, right? That's awesome! I would love to learn how to read it.
