The Birthday - Press Factory (english translation)

This one is super sketchy. I'm not sure about the tenses in some places.



プレスファクトリ / Press Factory

Lyrics: Chiba Yusuke
Music: The Birthday

It’s sinking in the bog, but I’ll always remember that that guy’s car was completely white at the start
A press factory for junk cars*
All the workers are funky
This is heaven
This press factory
With just my dreams, I can do it

Here, the jam session when we gather together is everything to me
If I’m asked if I really love you
I won’t say anything, okay?
The only thing that I’ll make clear is**
That I don’t hate you
I wonder if you understood that? Huh?

I’ll always be looking back at the Sesuna*** that’s flying away
If I’d grown wings,
I’d have gone to the sea with that girl
I don’t want you to put any tomato in my sandwich, okay?
And don’t cut the crusts off the bread
That’s very important

A press factory for junk cars
All the workers are funky
This is heaven
This press factory
With just my dreams, I can do it

If I’d grown wings,
I’d have gone to the sea with that girl

Singing a hymn
That guy disappeared

Notes:
*Apparently a “press factory” is actually a term for something else that he's misused, but I think it's clear that what Chiba means is something like a junkyard where old cars get crushed, like in the PV. 
**Not sure about these lines
***Sesuna is an aircraft company, so he’s probably looking at a plane
