Shikisai
English Interpretation and Translations
Drifting all alone in deep space, breathless and in the absence of soundJust with a little pain piercing through your heart, is all it takes for you to totally give upSeems that 'black hole' of yours just kept on expanding *1While in deep fear of the unknown, you suddenly started to heard a soft hearted voice
(The inner voice)" You always mentioned about your tragic life (loneliness, sadness, betrayal, lies & deceit)which is just seen as a spoonful of emptiness; yet you insist to keep it in total darkness from anyoneWell if you were lying, then I wouldn't really mind about it.But, you still after all these years, you still insist to keep from talking about it! "
Every single life will end eventually,And why they still kept mourning for what was lostOnce the people that leaves us, another will be replaced (take over their place)And we will start to ponder, "..was our life in ignorance was actually beautiful?"
What I actually saw was (something) from the future, but was there any sort of thing that was ever eternal? *3 Even if there was really a single chance, and that one wish really did come true, was a life where you and I are both living in *2
I kinda already felt sick, feeling indifferent because I kept having the same dreams looping over and over againWell, you cant simply be expecting to have all those kind of delightful dreams; all the timeWake up, try to understand that you have been doing so far was just running away from what was real!!
Until that day we say our final goodbyes, I shall always be by your sideEven if I knew that the final day was tomorrow, I still doubt we can ever be really separatedMy hue radiates depending on the personbut just by being with you, I was able to colorized the whole wide world
* Let's color the whole wide world in rainbow red color *
I could never have become a Goddess, and I could never have been able to save any livesor even trying to be an Angel, is also already out the question.Because what is really important is for you to really understandwhat you should have already known (by now)
All of these given visions may wish nothing back in return (or amount to / become nothing)because what I really wish for, exists right here within this current futureAt first when I was all alone, I searched out for helpful peopleit was the right thing to do, as any normal human being would actually have done *4
What I actually saw was (something) from the future, but was there any sort of thing that was ever eternal? *3 Even if there was really a single chance, and that one wish really did come true.I would have wished for a life where you and I are both living in *2
Comments
*1 - The kind of face which has just went through a singularity, or in softer terms, the heart which was replaced by the black holesubete no inochi ni owari ga aru
*2 - It means she wished for another life, or the reincarnation concept within RahXephon where everything reboots, but this time is where she lives in the same life with the person she wishes with
*3 - She was self doubting herself in this statement
*4 - Which is seeking out for help, you can't survive alone in this world

Personal Interpretations
People come and go (into and out from your life) quote from Shikisai song interpretations. "Once the people that leaves us, another will be replaced (take over their place) and we will start to ponder, "..was our life in ignorance was actually beautiful?" Maybe what Maaya neechan meant in the song, in an abstract way.. what comes to approach us in life is nothing more than just archetypes of people in general. Close Friends, Satellite Friends, Family, Distant Family, Parents, and sometimes even strangers. each one of us are replaceable by one another. Life is seen, like a lesson for the living person. Nothing more than that.

Experimental Instinctual Translation Version 0.5 (with translations side notes)
Drifting all alone in deep space, breathless and in the absence of soundJust with a little pain piercing through your heart, is all it takes for you to totally give upLooks like that 'black hole' is just keeping getting biggerWhile in deep fear of the unknown, you suddenly started to hear a soft hearted voice
"Ever floating endlessly in space, feeling all alone in the Universe, drifting without a purpose, without an orbit nor gravity that is able to pull, while being cast off into the furthest distances the mind can think of.. waiting for the last moments before entering a loop of infinite dimensions, in the other side of the Black hole.. crushed by it's strong spiral gravity altogether.. into a singularity, that could not be apprehended by the mind."
You always talk about your tragic childhood, which is just a spoonful of emptiness and in total darknessWell if you were lying, then I wouldn't really mind about it.But, you still after all these years, you still kept talking about it!
Comment: Either she got bored, or she thinks the topic is just too dragging / full of nonsense.. or so that she thought those were lies, but actually it was as real as it gets. Somehow it sunk her mood into the darkness as well..
Chorus -
I kinda already felt sick, feeling indifferent (A cynical note)while having the same dreams looping over and over againYou cant always be expecting to have all those kind of delightful dreamsWake up, try to understand that you have been doing so far was just running away from what was real!
Until that day we say our final goodbyes, I shall always be by your sideEven if I knew that the final day was tomorrow, I still doubt we can ever be really separatedMy hue radiates depending on the personbut just by being with you, I was able to colorized the whole wide world (Comment: World domination maybe?)
* Let's color the whole world in rainbow red color *
Chorus -
I could never have become a Goddess, and could never able to save any lives (Comment: lol)Or even being an Angel, is also already out the question. Because what is really important is for you to really understand what you should have already known (by now). (Please Grow up!, probably what it meant?)
