THIS SONG HAS BEEN RETRANSLATED AND REMASTERED! [ Ссылка ]
I've updated the translation and spruced up the video, along with making the lyrics FULLY SINGABLE.

English and Romaji subs for Machine Gun Kiss, Kiryu's karaoke song from Yakuza 5.

This one was surprisingly hard to translate; damn English...
Sorry if the cinematic is a bit distracting, I figured it was better than simply having a still image for the second half of the song.

**I accidentally swapped words; the line in the first chorus should be, "Count every last kiss that I give to you" not "every kiss last". Oops.**

ENGLISH LYRICS:

Tear past midnight shadows, accelerator roaring through this highway city
In the seat next to mine, you look away, embarrassed, hiding your blush in fear
I will protect you, wield me like a knife
I'll hold you close in my arms, my sweet babe
Leave your worries behind, we'll rewrite our past and future together
Let's go, to a paradise made just for the two of us
One billion, two billion, ten billion
Count every last kiss that I give to you, baby
I'll hold you tight in my arms and never let you go
Just fall in love with my machine gun kiss!

If I'm to lose my freedom, bound up in chains
I'll throw all this worthless money and status straight to the dogs
This whole "romantic last dance" thing doesn't suit a guy like me at all
So load your gun and pull the trigger to end this stupid world once and for all
and rid yourself of those haunting nightmares
Your unrelenting spiral of sadness will be obliterated by our kisses, lady!
Neither the devil nor god can pass judgement on the love between you and I
I need you baby, tonight, hold me tight!

Should destiny or reason intrude on our love, we’ll destroy them together
Come on, smile for me, my Venus, my beloved Maria
Remember fondly, our precious memories
One billion, two billion, ten billion
Count every last kiss that I give to you, baby
I'll hold you tight in my arms and never let you go
Just fall in love with my machine gun kiss!
