I really do love Kazuki Tomokawa. He is a fabulous musician, and his music is so powerful. I have a hard time showing him to most people, because I think they are a little taken back by his unique singing style. It may definitely be an acquired taste, but I think it's good to listen to something unlike anything you've heard before. I personally think he is a genius, and a great song writer, and there is a reason why he is called the "screaming prophet." Thanks for uploading.
Great performance. I saw him in Koiwa 3 years ago in a small venue and he played this track and then railed about the Japanese government's handling of Fukushima. What a stunning performance it was! Glad to see that he's finally becoming a little bit popular in Japan due to some airplay on radio. I could watch him live again and again.
Theres a pistol on the table certainly within me theres an overgrown thistle of a life. Neither skies nor fingers can be counted on Greenness or light, standing blindly and desperately I embrace it. In the midst of an absence-revealing wind, still I am standing
I found another nice translation There is a pistol on the table The final breath of overgrown thistle is surely inside myself Can’t count on the sky, nor a finger The green, or light, was standing there I just blindly embraced it I am still standing in the wind that reveals absence - -
Is it loaded or not? Does the time come or not? It’s nice to be against war, but isn’t that to be against human? It’s always pointed at the face It’s the same here and there I say “What the hell,” but can’t count on the sky, nor a finger - - There is a pistol on the table There is a pistol on the table Is it a promised flower? Is it the weight of betrayal?
Is it loaded or not? Will that time come or not? Objecting to war is fine, but arent you objecting to humanity? Theres a pistol on the table, theres a pistol on the table. Is it the promised flower? Or is it the weight of betrayal?

言葉が弾丸になって胸に突き刺さります。
此の「ピストル」は友川さん流の追い詰められたやせ細る人間の魂の「絶体絶命」に「抵抗」する怒りを込めた壮絶な魂の「根底からの叫び」に依る生への回帰の唄だと思う。
戦争反対もけっこうだが
人間反対ではないのか
沁みすぎます

歌詞がかっこうよいすぎる…歌い方はこわい
Theres a pistol on the table
certainly within me theres
an overgrown thistle of a life.
Neither skies nor fingers can be counted on
Greenness or light, standing
blindly and desperately I embrace it.
In the midst of an absence-revealing wind,
still I am standing
I found another nice translation
There is a pistol on the table
The final breath of overgrown thistle
is surely inside myself
Can’t count on the sky, nor a finger
The green, or light, was standing there
I just blindly embraced it
I am still standing
in the wind that reveals absence

友川かずきが必要です。友川かずきが真実です。私はそう思います。
loved it. Thanks for uploading!
That's great!
Ah, that's right. Thank you. XD
Is it loaded or not?
Does the time come or not?
It’s nice to be against war,
but isn’t that to be against human?
It’s always pointed at the face
It’s the same here and there
I say “What the hell,”
but can’t count on the sky, nor a finger

There is a pistol on the table
There is a pistol on the table
Is it a promised flower?
Is it the weight of betrayal?
почти Егорка
See the translation of pistol. The second part is the last comment
友川さんの詩は普通に聴いていたらどれもが複雑でオドロオドロしていて苦しくなるがじっくり聴いてみると共通点が見えて来る。其の内容は一見どれも此れも世間からドロップアウトした人の内容に思えるが実は其の裏には泣き笑いのだけの一般的な人生に於けるシステム等を遥かに超えた人間が誰もが絶対に観たくない其の先の『本当の真理』を凝視しようとしているのだと思う。身じろぎもせず。
Can anyone tell me where I can find an english translation of this lyrics? Thanks.
Does anybody have the original lyrics in Japanese? Thanks!
Is it loaded or not?
Will that time come or not?
Objecting to war is fine,
but arent you objecting to humanity?
Theres a pistol on the table,
theres a pistol on the table.
Is it the promised flower?
Or is it the weight of betrayal?
thank you
若いですね。いつ頃のライブですか？
こう言っちゃアレだけど､全然上手くない
だけど､弾き語りでこそ友川さんの一番いいところがわかる
そんな良い例だと思います
スゲーカッコいいッス
散らかり死上手い下手なんて友川カズキには関係ないね！
what a joke
yeah you are
