Feelings
(verse 1)
I'm looking for you inside your hurt
the sky seems so far, when I cannot see you depart
and right now I'm making lists
of emotions I've yet to experience
you're so close by, but no matter how hard I try
you slip past my face, that's why I'm uneasy
you say I'm innocently naive
and that makes me more uneasy
how you only say things so true
(chorus)
it hurts, I've held onto these feelings so hard
how much of them have reached you?
this dark, this dark stainless steel night
at this very, at this very moment in your sky
I want to fly high, fly high
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
why are emotions always shapeless?
I want to become better, that's why
right now, I'm wondering
I mailed them in a letter
have they been delivered to you?
(chorus)
it hurts, I've held these feelings I've felt so intensely
how much of them will become returned?
it hurts, I'm fresh like fragile-picked cotton
in order that, in order that they shine one day
fly high, fly high
(end chorus)
(bridge)
more than eternity, more than fate too
I want to stop time on this blurred day
and express more of
these overflowing emotions
that brew deep inside
(chorus)
it hurts, I've held onto these feelings so hard
how much of them have reached you?
this dark, this dark stainless steel night
no matter how, no matter how many countless times
fly high, fly high
(end chorus)
Heaven Knows
(verse 1)
I believe that wishes can be fulfilled
but I live an ordinary everyday after day
as the wind floats the clouds away
because everything outside the pearly gates
is going to disappear
it's better just to always smile
but nights when I want to cry are increasing
stars flow aimlessly towards the streets
shards of dreams pierce my heart
a future that only God understands
is a treasure chest of unease, answers please, and hope
(chorus)
heaven knows, pray so that someday
heaven knows, wishes will have a way
to come true, it's not just a simple thing
it's a process even so
heaven knows, I want to try to believe
heaven knows, beyond what's unseen dreams
in the sky, these are surely the wings of the present
I'll always feel foreboding in my heart
but that won't keep us apart
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
even if someone strikes at loneliness
face it, no one can solve it
even so, I have problems to reconsider
who is reliable?
who can I escape to?
and who understands me?
within the depths of my heart
bravery and self-confidence is a need
try letting them out slowly
expel all uncertainty from your dreams
God knows absolutely everything
so bet on the new world, the angels above, and the future for you
(chorus)
heaven knows, sing so that someday
heaven knows, dreams can be fulfilled always
keep looking up at the blue sky
no matter what
heaven knows, just try believing more
heaven knows, in yourself and what that power's for
that surely is the ability to change the present
it's a will the light grants
I will always feel that melody
in my heart
(end chorus)
(chorus)
heaven knows, pray so that someday
heaven knows, wishes will have a way
to come true, it's not just a simple thing
it's a process even so
heaven knows, I want to try to believe
heaven knows, beyond what's unseen dreams
in the sky, these are surely the wings of the present
I'll always feel foreboding in my heart
but that won't keep us apart
(end chorus)
The Place of Happiness
(verse 1)
you are here with me by my side
there's no way the darkness can reach me now
take my hand, let's go to the land
the place of happiness forever
a heaviness in my chest
spilling my tears over adventures I've lost
ruffles in my long skirt, however
the wind picks up and carries off my bonnet
over here, over there
under sea, under stone
searching every corner of the globe
let's go
(chorus)
you are here with me by my side
there's no way the darkness can reach me now
take my hand, let's go to the land
the place of happiness forever alive
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
it has to exist outside of children's fairytales
the security of magic locked behind castle walls
unicorns and other creatures of myth
must have been seen to be told by breath
search high, search low
check far, check wide
a world of wonder has to be under these clouds
(chorus)
tell me lies to keep my spirits up
give me strength, reignite my hope
I'll always be beside of you
maybe that's where there's real happiness
(end chorus)
(bridge)
the location of childish dreams
a wonderland of fiction truly
exists between you and me
while we're imagining
worlds full of color
amazement and wonder
where truth is power
in our names
(chorus)
you are here with me by my side
there's no way the darkness can reach me now
take my hand, let's go to the land
the place of happiness forever alive
tell me lies to keep my spirits up
give me strength, reignite my hope
I'll always be beside of you
maybe that's where there's real happiness
(end chorus)
LOVE & HISTORY
(chorus)
faraway, faraway
beyond dynasties and kingdoms
faraway, faraway
countless lives come and gone
for you, for you
medieval ages to coming centuries
I go beyond love and history with you
(end chorus)
(verse 1)
don't forget, we transcend time
it belongs to me everything in space
I have a dream and where there's a way there's my will
a new morning comes with the dawn
however, you're the man I love
the beating of my heart is the life
of the world around you
and I feel the same
(chorus)
always, always
we built the pyramids
always, always
we crossed the Atlantic
you and I, you and I
have conquered nations
with nothing but our hands and swords, my love
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
written in the textbooks
you were emperor and I was your empress
our army has crumbled walls
our resolve has struck gold
told hold such political power
to bring the world to its golden hour
a couple that knows no bounds
I always want you around me
(chorus)
faraway, faraway
beyond dynasties and kingdoms
faraway, faraway
countless lives come and gone
for you, for you
medieval ages to coming centuries
I go beyond love and history with you
(end chorus)
(bridge)
a love that can be the lighthouse in the fog
opening libraries and giving knowledge to all
a relationship that plagues the great philosophers
always being the free thinkers we are, I dream
(chorus)
always, always
we built the pyramids
always, always
we crossed the Atlantic
you and I, you and I
have conquered nations
with nothing but our hands and swords
faraway, faraway
beyond dynasties and kingdoms
faraway, faraway
countless lives come and gone
for you, for you
medieval ages to coming centuries
I go beyond love and history with you
(end chorus)
POWER GATE
(verse 1)
with the small color of a pink spring on the street
I made an assertion
that I've managed to find these wonderful friends
I was definitely being too inflexible
unable to strongly
always hold onto the same righteous feelings
I would get lonely
and brood over things
feel regret and anguish
I couldn't take it easy
enjoy anything
I can't even chill
(chorus)
with this power
now I have everyone's pure strength with me
I feel like I can finally run again always
I can open the power gate
for once my heart is actually tripping and trembling
with this key, I can want all I have, and keep on going
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
a powerful wind sweeps through the city in the spring
when it blows, weak hearts can change and not be alone
it's such a common thing to say
but be brave
have more courage, if you're afraid
you can't take the first step
those strangely overconfident people
start to look old and worn
for those of that carry worry
the pure light is shining
continue on your journey
(chorus)
for your big dreams
if you keep going, they'll surely come true
it will happen definitely
even if tears and fears come spilling and calling
from here on the power gate
will open with time
and ability to change the era
that's right all of us together
we'll do it as one
(end chorus)
(chorus)
with our strength combined
the running is more fun
and we can send away all our doubts
with all I have and go on
I can open the power gate
I'm not alone anymore
so I won't look back
the pressure is off, the game is on
whoo!
the weight of the power gate
is why it's worth it
while we have the time
and ability to change the era
that's right all of us together
things changed from yesterday, I'm sure
(end chorus)
Suddenly ~Meeting You~
(chorus)
hey, even if we never found each other back then
we were destined to meet anywhere and when
if wasn't just some lucky coincidence
suddenly, you just appeared
(end chorus)
(verse 1)
all of a sudden, I'm having to
reexamine all my ties to other people
my wires got crossed
though another soul, I've never been able to trust
though it's not like me, to think about a lot of things
I've become so lost in my own mind
but when I turn around, you're right here
protecting me when I don't know it
it's so wonderful because I'm with you
I can go through the day
with a smile on my face
(chorus)
hey, even though the mundane world is the same
something, somewhere has definitely changed
our dreams have yet to be shattered
rather, the future is really happy
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
I've come this far walking tall and proud
but what exactly am I proud of?
so many times I've swallowed my pride
but not this time
but then I noticed you right there
without anything to hide, you were with me
because you're here, just like that
I can have pride boldly
(chorus)
hey, from here on out, what will happen?
now open the stage by raising the curtain
it's not a simple trick of fate
it's the real thing, isn't it?
yes, once we're together forever
everything becomes so natural
it doesn't matter if we're not special
just talking is enough and all
(end chorus)
(bridge)
making the most of any situation
I open the gate and walk forward
bidding farewell to doubt and absolution
I head out
(chorus)
even though the mundane world is the same
something, somewhere has definitely changed
our dreams have yet to be shattered
rather, the future is really happy
we'll surely be able to walk side by side
forever and ever forevermore
I'm just like a little kid
suddenly, I feel something new
meeting you suddenly
my heart is racing with joy
meeting you suddenly
my heart goes fast with joy
(end chorus)
New Sensation
(verse 1)
experiences where you are feeling sad only
let's put an end to those now mysteriously
believing only in ideals that are important to me
I'm immaturely stupidly
surprised by the noise around sulking
in an unseen imagination
I want to take care of not going down the wrong road
don't cry, please
let's stop this now
(chorus)
I want to have fun with it, surely
you feel the same way, absolutely
finding out own faults and falling down with it
I don't have time to think about such things that are silly
let's see when we start changing
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
urging and shaking oneself awake
for such a person like you, I'm needed for the job
bringing bright and entertaining smiles
to soft and gentle days
if you give me a piece of your time
I'll adorn the transparency you are chasing
when you're feeling tough
my gentle affection will be fabric softener
(chorus)
the you that's irreplaceable
I'll take good care of you, surely
though I laugh at the splendor
I love for anything hearty
there are roads which can be crossed
while being swept up in a festival
though things are like this
I have fighting spirit
(end chorus)
(chorus)
I want to have fun with it, surely
you feel the same way, absolutely
just making wishes and letting the present go
I don't have time to say it's unbelievable to be surprised
not yet, not yet we have strength left, right?
though, so impatiently, we get used to one thing
beyond the suffering, there are infinite possibilities
I'm tired of waiting
gazing out through the window
changing it so, let's see
believe me and my new sensation
(end chorus)
Brilliant Star
(verse 1)
does everyone carry around a lot of sorrow?
silent voices living to try to fool themselves
in the space between dawn and dusk
I turn away from mankind
and so like this, I gather the fading light
so that it won't be lost forever
because that's just too tragic
(chorus)
if I follow the dark road all the way to the moon
my heart will fill with a fledgling of a light
that'll start off weak then become bright
over misty ready fairy, holding it up to the bleakness
I can't erase the notion of inferiority
that etched too deep into my complex
the rhythm of my heartbeat wavers suddenly
over misty ready fairy
if my dreams can shine
then surely
they'll be answered one day too
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
I fill my head with so many empty promises
soon, I can't even say to myself what I want
I pick up a record
I drop it and it shatters on the floor
you taught me that it's good to look forward
even with a map that's full of errors
so I'll go on, with mistakes
and stop looking back
(chorus)
if I choose the road leading to the ends of time
I'll become someone who can love herself
I want to be like her myself
over misty ready fairy, that's all that matters to me
my yearning was too strong
possibly I couldn't control
my heart that always stood on tiptoes
pretending I was an adult with woes
over misty ready fairy
but even so, surely, I'm getting closer to the light too
(end chorus)
(chorus)
if I follow the dark road all the way to the moon
my heart will fill with a fledgling of a light
rainy day, sweet, and honey
any day, dream, and bright
over misty ready fairy, holding it up to the bleakness
I can't erase the notion of inferiority
that etched too deep into my complex
the rhythm of my heartbeat wavers suddenly
over misty ready fairy
if my dreams can shine
then surely
they'll be answered one day too
(end chorus)
Still in the Groove
(verse 1)
steady your wandering thoughts
you're finally able to live tough
you're no longer capricious
you're a high-speed imitation
when you're unable to see anything or anymore
you'll go out of control
you'll lose and head to a city of solitude
for instance, if powerful passions stand in your way
you'll get sick on the waves from greedy illusions
I have a third eye
that can see these types of things
(chorus)
even if it is beautiful and you're intrigued too
your self-confidence will slip by you
throw away that little ridiculous small pride
even if you're scared, you have to liberty to
turn back and reexamine things
and when you've come to accept the present
you can recall that day you were helped too
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
oh love, even the means of help
is useless if you just live by self-righteousness
over-decorated bad emotions
if you only keep staring at what's beyond building
pining and wanting
you'll be unable to believe in anyone
even if the curtain was rising in the distance
you'll be intoxicated by the fantasies
and unable to see your own feet
(chorus)
your heart wavers, your turn away shaken
monopolizing major success
if blindingly working hard is your justice
the things you will lose sight of
are big and very, very important but can never return
an overly exaggerated treasure hunt
still, you'll be able to find a detour for you
(end chorus)
(chorus)
even if it is beautiful and you're intrigued too
your self-confidence will slip by you
throw away that little ridiculous small pride
fearful of the intensity of this very, very dangerous
over an extravagant treasure hunt
I am still lost, I'm still in the groove
(end chorus)
Panorama
(chorus)
overlapping memories like shadows
my wings soar high in the sky
if I can forgive even my mistakes
the long night will break into the dawn
I am a small being
who can't see the whole picture
yet if I can do it tomorrow
I can do it today too
(end chorus)
(verse 1)
in the depths of foggy labyrinths
I succumbed to demonic whispers
my mind is clouded and lost in the deep
drowning in overwhelming power
deceived by false visions coming to me
I dance in confusion unendingly
yet I wish I could be an angel
with unsullied black wings that defy destiny
a fleeting sacrifice of this body
and tainted soul
I seek proof of my existence
and see if there is such a wish
(chorus)
within you, it continues
with my own hands, I sever the illusions
the frozen tears still pour
into the landscape
they fade away as I
embrace the pain I hold
after the battle, I lay in the cold
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
my heart, consumed by darkness to the core
an unsolvable puzzle inside me
the black spreads, eroding with time
bound by the chains of desire's scales
I dissolve into the vast, irreversible current
white light shines down, and I faint
unveiling my soul, in betrayal, I'm buried
I'm too awake to even sleep
it's a beast of an unknown color
and I hope I'm the only one who ever knows it
(chorus)
within me, it resonates
my unwavering thoughts are reborn
declaring "I'm not a mere pawn"
I'm a human
with arms wide open, I seize tomorrow
blank as a slate, unemotional
(end chorus)
(chorus)
a sweet-tongued angel, she's garbed in white
descends with mischief in her eyes, dancing
within you, it continues
with my own hands, I sever the illusions
in all the world, I'm with you all alone
I believe in the future we shall build together
(end chorus)
Innocent Starter
(verse 1)
hugging my knees in the corner
I was always shaking from my unease
knowing the truth is frightening
so I closed the door
held tight to my graphite
and stopped trying to fight
I sought a place to belong in a gentle lie
I took refuge in my dreams
not wanting to lose my only innocence
the loneliness of nothing but sea
a pain nobody else knew was dyed a deep blue
with an earnest desire to
hide my singularity
I wounded so many hearts
caught in my view
(chorus)
inside my eyes, in the secret abstruse
in the reality, behind the smile you
get drawn in to by me
there is a tender love that I'm willing to send to you
if you reach and touch my undying love, the fragile warmth pouring
into the present from the past by truth
I'll always be by your side
so don't feel lost in the sad shadows
I'm not going anywhere
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
like a child chasing my dreams
I couldn't find anything
and that made me not feel special
all I did was lose sight
of what's important to me and everyone else
the happiness that definitely exists
in the "obvious" and the "normal"
with power that can be protected
I wanted to obtain that
so I head straight and live on
I won't get lost on the way
my gaze is only
on that "one" answer
(chorus)
in the red dawn, there's a painted rainbow on the sky
that wraps around all the emptiness
this small courage surpasses every word
even if the future is taken captive
held at stake and the distance vanishes
this prayer will live on
I want to send my sincere feelings to you
and they won't go away
like in the innocent starter in me
(end chorus)
(chorus)
I'm whispering to you the person who gave me
my one and only beginning
keep the promise we made between ourselves
the magic of eternity that never stops changing
even if the future is taken captive
even if the future is taken captive
held at stake and the distance vanishes
I will remember your clear voice
call my name
and smile like you did on that day
(end chorus)
WILD EYES
(verse 1)
bleeding crimson drops on my painted glossy lips
softly, a mist known as grief touches me
eerily, the mirror floating in the air is beautiful
everything, in the night it touches illuminates
thinking about the constellations pouring down
around us as we gaze
a deep bond of keen blood
ties us together permanently
stronger and stronger grips the hold
(chorus)
blue color shining in those mystical eyes looking at me
even if I'm closed off from the messengers of the grey shadows
the bridge of stolen stares that connects our wild eyes
cannot be taken away
our eyes reflect an infinite tomorrow
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
it reflects, a mystery light around you and me
the honey, of sweet words is like a signature fragrance
black drums, sound as beating wings creep up secretly
my body, begins to groan seeking a place to go
distorted speculation hidden in a box underneath the bed of lies
the white of it glows as it bares its sharp fangs
revolving and revolving around tragedy
(chorus)
disappearing in the silent town hidden between the mountains
like premonitions forming, it's fate to follow a fleeting story
raise the unclouded blade from its sheath
and weave pure poetry
for the unyielding future we hope for
(end chorus)
(bridge)
shallowly, at dawn we continue sleeping peacefully
solitary, woven together by soft prayers
sapphire tears, engraved into floating cobalt clouds
chasing, after your familiar beloved shadow
hatred swirls in the form of flames on this land
it won't pierce through, my untainted heart
an oath of heat, an oath of heat from me
(chorus)
blue color shining in those mystical eyes looking at me
even if I'm closed off from the messengers of the grey shadows
the bridge of stolen stares that connects our wild eyes
cannot be from you
by the melody of miracles spelling forever
(end chorus)
Justice to Believe
(verse 1)
love, it is my justice
I was trapped deep in a castle of thorny red roses
those crimson flowers are coldly in full bloom
they can't hide the truth, I'm searching to save you
my rusted scars erased all the certain moments
I had through time
and with a hammering heartbeat
they sought the darkness
and shot through
(chorus)
over the sand on which a glass rainbow floated
rather than insisting on an illusory tomorrow
yes I will, I will hold you
if I show you everything without fearing the hopeful morn at dawn
glittering in the far-off distance
I'll reveal it all with a smile
my hot-blooded heart
and the path I must traverse
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
just as if I was swimming aimlessly through a tale
struggling and unable to move about freely
I'm pursuing my ever-diluted memory
so long as I have determination of pure
my breath is cutting through the void
many times over, with the truth
I realize I want to destroy the reality of my instincts
(chorus)
the white rain that foretells the approaching of the end
will shake off the quiet peace
yes, it will simply etch your name deep
in these arms of mine
I will spread out a very familiar scenery
and yearn for it constantly
I don't need any refuges
I will face the opening act
true and without lies
because that's where you are
(end chorus)
(bridge)
justice to believe
justice to believe
"this is good enough, fine"
a bad hint made before I knew it was whispered to me
like a breeze ever so gently
my important bonds begin to walk through my chest
this time, I want you to know
my beautifully burning, indispensable passions
are righteous and always justice
only for those a pure of heart
like you and like me
(chorus)
over the sand on which a glass rainbow floated
rather than insisting on an illusory tomorrow
yes I will, I will hold you
if I show you everything without fearing the hopeful morn at dawn
glittering in the far-off distance
I'll reveal it all with a smile
my hot-blooded heart
and the path I must traverse
(end chorus)
TRANSMIGRATION
(chorus)
your welcoming arms, your hot breath
"I love you"'s uttered just for me
why is it? I wonder curiously
because of love, I'm plummeting
(end chorus)
(verse 1)
in a movie, I watched as a little girl
there featured beautiful fallen angel
as if it was a fountain of forbidden love
it wagered its life for sin
time passed and I've grown
or at least, I think
I am, surely I have, entirely
become just like that angel
(chorus)
that moment we were meeting
a flash of white lighting
a bolt of something ripped through my chest
memories that run deep
embracing each other
for what I assume is forever
why is it? I wonder
because of love, I see nothing
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
those who are trustworthy
and those who have been betrayed
are drawn together by an invisible thread
they quietly try to atone
for their crimes of passion
but they end up in defeat
I've wished to be reborn
and come here once again
ever since long ago
and now I am here
but you're not there
(chorus)
agony sets into my snow-white back
my wings have been stolen in a river of blood
memories that run deep
a face shining in the glass like a shadow
why is it? I wonder
this love is like that angel's
(end chorus)
(bridge)
memories that run deep
that now come to mind
a distant past in which I lose wings to
(chorus)
dance with the sky
the person I loved was you
I've come this far without anything else
your welcoming arms, your hot breath
this time, for sure, they'll be just for me
once again, because of love
I'm left plummeting
(end chorus)
Faith
(verse 1)
I want to tell you the most
about the scenery I've seen
in the picture book I've treasured that I got from you
and the X on the spot where I buried my treasures
all the moments that make up the me of now
people can change so easily, I'm sure
and I'm the just the same in this azul shade of blue
dancing under waterfalls on nights of Spanish heat
my location has been stained with tears
I haven't seen your for months and years
from here on, I'll hope you'll kiss me like that promise
I would launch a fleet of ships
give up my gold and my jeweled crown
just to find where you're keeping yourself from me
(chorus)
can you feel my faith?
because it's my true self, really
the me I cannot show
but you can feel with your hands
just by the touch that
will make me keep craving
to become yours
feel it more like silk through fingers
feel my faith
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
letters that have been returned to sender
with the contents empty and the red wax seal broken
I only grip tighter to the arm of my chair
I can't find anything fun if you're not here
because I don't want to forget this present feeling
I trace letters on the wooden table and spill my wine
time increases the past
it's the same for everyone
but gathering distant memories
links you to tomorrow
and the land where tenderness overflows
the hot wind brushes my cheek
it reminds me of how you were close
and your heat
but I learned in time that you would never be mine
(chorus)
can you feel my faith?
and hear my real voice calling?
I can't speak to anyone
without finding traces of you
I want to step forward
but I take two steps back
I want to accept you've become a ghost
and I'm a phantom who believes it more
feel my faith
(end chorus)
(chorus)
can you feel my faith?
because it's my true self, really
the me I cannot show
but you can feel with your hands
can you feel my faith?
and hear my real voice calling?
I can't speak to anyone
without finding traces of you
I want to step forward
but I take two steps back
I want to accept you've become a ghost
and I'm a phantom who believes it more
feel my faith
(end chorus)
Tears Night
(verse 1)
so strong, so strong, we embraced firmly on that winter night
confessing what we had hidden in covered feelings
why does it suddenly feel so painful
whenever I hear your deep voice?
the trembling in this voice of mine
is not just because of the chill
wherever I'm going, you're the final destination on my mind
I just cannot shake you off my checkered coat
"hey, where are you?"
I've been searching for a love
I can't hide anymore
(chorus)
on this night, you should come and see about little lonely me
it's okay to show me what your heart is hiding
won't you please, won't you please hold onto me so tightly
like in prayer, my closed eyes became warmer under snowflakes
repeating your name on this sacred tears night
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
what do you still remember about that scarf-wrapped day
naked trees and pale skyscrapers on the way home
when nobody was around we joined our ring fingers
together, what kind of face did you make?
"hey, please tell me too"
I can't bargain anyways anymore
(chorus)
I want to know more about you, who is mine and mine only
I want you to show me the whole of your beating heart
won't you please, won't you please say yes to requests made by me
I looked up seeking planets beyond the grey clouds
so that my tears won't come trickling down like starlight
(end chorus)
(bridge)
time, please stop the clock hands now
wish, I'm fond of you dearly so
miss you, my final wish was
us to fly together and escape this heartache
fly, towards a shared goal
don't take your hands off of me
join our hearts together surely
(chorus)
it is my sincerest wish to be yours and yours only
absolutely, absolutely, I'll treasure you, my precious, so much
our white breath melts together and we passionately kiss each other
so strong, so strong, we embraced firmly on that winter night
confessing what we uncovered in undoubted feelings
please always be by my side
like in prayer, my closed eyes became warmer under snowflakes
repeating your name on this sacred tears night
(end chorus)
Crystal Letter
(verse 1)
the memories of the times I spent with you are shining
like crystals, sparkling and clear
I looked up for my tears not to fall
I am not afraid
to start a new journey
I will play a love song with an eternal harp
so the stars in the galaxy will always be lit
ribbon in my heart, you gave to me from afar
let me begin writing our epoch
beyond the distant horizon, a gold heart is burning
right now, I want to fly away
spread these white wings bathed in gold
(chorus)
I loved our endless dream we dreamed
I loved your smile you smiled
I was happy with our normal love
I'm so sorry, these words are only stereotypical
for example, even if time were to tear
the "in this world, I love you the most" you said
I will still feel the same about you
love you forever
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
maybe the origin of life is a requiem called love
but to believe in people is so very painful
I thought I knew everything of
how hearts can be empty or full
I found an oasis at the furthest end of a sandstorm brewing
if everything is decided by fate
then until where will I wander?
must I find a new home?
my feelings grow so large that I am left choking
the fly into the wind
(chorus)
I loved you so much that I wished for us to last eternally
I love you so much that I cried on and on
I truly want to turn back
and gaze at your back
if I plant my endless thoughts into the earth
then a flower will grow in my heart
"you can smile, so won't you smile for me" you said
for the first time, I wept
you'll never cry again
(end chorus)
(bridge)
that, the kind of kindness that melts froze tears
I begin writing on a new page for you
your voice unravels space
and travels through time
I tightly hug onto you
(chorus)
I love you, I'll love you forever and ever
that's why, I will, I will, still
reach you
I will cross over time
"our story is at its ending, but will bloom fully
in the future of infinity"
I send a crystal letter of a new beginning
love and soul letter
(end chorus)
ETERNAL BLAZE
(verse 1)
far away in the distance, echoing prayers
the miracles are ever changing
drops of tears in the palms of my hands
flowing and melting into the night sky's azure
encountered a kindness
enveloped in tenderness
and kept them lit like a flame
as white as the pure, fresh-fallen snow
your forever honest speech makes me grow
it rouses me into motion
me, who's been tangled by feathers of iron
whenever you're hurting
you only become more gentle and tender
and that's why I protect at least
you to the end with my fighting, my one and only wish
(chorus)
forever transcending time and space
these sad and serene memories
accepting them like an angel of lightengraving each one permanently
the fires of eternity set ablaze
my spirit from that day
release the abyssal darkness
open freedom's gate
towards a limitless future
with all my strength
becoming stronger through fighting
eternally
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
as cold as the viridian moon
a shadow on my mind is cast
feeling forsaken, I whisper
"I wish I was by your side"
your courage taught me to face truths
slowly it propels me to dash
open my eyes to hopes and dreams
and let love burst at the seams
in order not to lose touch of feelings
without second thoughts or hesitating
hug close to me ideals that are certain
and carry them faithfully until the very end
(chorus)
what has been hidden in the silver sea
is only a blank page unseen
show me the real form of truth, please
of which only you know and have seen
we forged an oath righteously
out of our sweeping pain
I have no fear
our gazes are fixed on each other
setting into motion
our precious moment
as the sun is setting
it's beginning
(end chorus)
(bridge)
eternal blaze
it'll be a place
where you can be your true self
without ever being swept away
by nightmares of illusory
the wretchedness of a downpour that's never stopping
just shatter the lock on the gate
and stop waiting
I'm by your side
have faith in everything
(chorus)
forever transcending time and space
these sad and serene memories
accepting them like an angel of lightengraving each one permanently
the fires of eternity set ablaze
my spirit from that day
release the abyssal darkness
open freedom's gate
towards a limitless future
with all my strength
becoming stronger through fighting
eternally
yes, everything will begin from here, for sure
(end chorus)
Through the Night
(verse 1)
how many? Too many
fears keep piling
the more stars I dare to wish on
salary men were popping bottles of plenty
drinking merrily being happy
I was too back alley poor
I chose the life of an adventurer
but I really want to be like those who are wiser than me
nothing matters to the strong
oh no, what’s happening?
technology breaks
futuristic settings seem so bleak
in comparison to nature
we abandoned it all for structure
watching out of apartment windows lazily
as a government takes over quietly
(chorus)
since that day, there’s no way
to make it through the night
with little power alone
it’s always an uphill fight
praying and hoping
for a way to protect
what little I still have
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
the tracking beams been attached
to my controlled mind
we’ve replaced humanity
with cruelty wiping out what’s kind
how many countless nights
have our fearless leaders ruled us?
there’s no point and no hope
there’s not even a resistance
we’re lacking
there’s no summer but there’s no spring
there’s just metal held up by concrete
we utilized escapism to feel normal
now it’s all we have
left to cling to
(chorus)
immediately now, in the present
that’s the future to the past
it’s robotic, it’s scary
will we survive through the night?
a utopia, a dystopia
the happiness parents wanted for children
has been distorted
(end chorus)
(bridge)
round and round we go
at the mercy of the powerful and wealthy
we’ll be fragile no matter what we do
the majority is so silent
(chorus)
since that day, there’s no way
to make it through the night
with little power alone
it’s always an uphill fight
praying and hoping
for a way to protect
what little I still have
immediately now, in the present
that’s the future to the past
it’s robotic, it’s scary
will we survive through the night?
a utopia, a dystopia
the happiness parents wanted for children
has been distorted
(end chorus)
Miracle☆Flight
(verse 1)
if you watch the passersby under the big blue
they have huge baggage too
heavy faces in a brisk sweat
always in a rush with somewhere to go
they'll take it easy some other time
it's too tiring
it's all the same thing day after day
when my strength finally fails me
I wonder, can I do it?
(chorus)
let's go on a journey through this great universe
a thrilling Martian desert trip
let's embrace all our faults, finally
in the past, I cried
I just put that away in my lower dresser drawer
let's have exciting sweet dreams full of dessert
that not even God knows about you and I
a miracle flight into the open sky
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
a touch of greenery against the air that's dirty
makes this a clean world
after all, I realized it goes without saying
everyone needs a long vacation
I've been regenerated suddenly
don't they all know?
although, it's a bit difficult
put your hands up, are you ready?
(chorus)
let's dress the same and go on a shining journey
we should even take along someone worried with stress
when they finally laugh, they'll become lighter
isn't that a wonder?
let's leap up and create a miraculous bridge
to the stars overflowing
with tears of yesterday and hopes of tomorrow
here, a miracle is always happening
(end chorus0
(bridge)
hey!
(chorus)
come on, everyone
let's go quickly on this journey
together we'll go on foot to the Martian desert
a sparkling future for you and me
where I forget in the past, I cried
I just put that away in my lower dresser drawer
let's have exciting sweet dreams full of dessert
that not even God knows about you and I
a miracle flight into the open sky
let's go on, let's go on an exciting journey soon
(end chorus)
You Have A Dream
(verse 1)
lowering your hat over your crying eyes
your heartbeat stops because the wind
can't blow you towards tomorrow
the uncertainty is too stifling
the color of sadness is a rouge blue
being idle as the seasons change around you
it's okay, you're no longer alone
I'm with you all the way
even if you cry pathethically
or even stumble and fall
rather than giving up
it's better to be moving forward
(chorus)
don't worry, you have a dream
you and everybody are the same
I have a dream, and no one can stop me
we have a dream, in this wide endless world
that keeps spinning
go and fly, you have a dream
we began running with all our might
yes, I believe
we don't need any brakes, we're not stopping
we have a dream, we'll be fine in the wonderful world
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
there aren't many things you can do by yourself
now that our minds became one
our potential can only broaden
from the tip of the land into the sea
there is a goal to head towards
beyond hardships and no rewards
even if things are frustrating
you're the real deal, reliable, and surely...
(chorus)
don't worry, you have a dream
as long as you have a vision for the future
I have a dream, shining more than anywhere
we have a dream, it's unstoppable for sure
go and fly, you have a dream
believe in it now and forever
yes, I believe
the road always keeps stretching
we have a dream, we'll be fine in the wonderful world
(end chorus)
(bridge)
imagining there's a day like this
nowhere and step forward
to a new morning abright
(chorus)
don't worry, you have a dream
you and everybody are the same
I have a dream, and no one can stop me
we have a dream, in this wide endless world
that keeps spinning
go and fly, you have a dream
we began running with all our might
yes, I believe
we don't need any brakes, we're not stopping
we have a dream, we'll be fine in the wonderful world
(end chorus)
Take A Shot
(verse 1)
as if you could escape
the stagnant air surrounding
you that's what you wanted to show me
the quiet covet that's been swelling
in our ears whispering
"let's take back our lives someday"
I stared off into blank space
your gaze is the rain
of your compassion, I'm cleansed and reborn
don't let me down
I can't stop this from working
(chorus)
shake up
for the first time, I realized, I'll surrender
take a shot
I look around and all I see is you
the meaning of fighting without hesitating
is to bloom as if in full glory
to face my weakness in one bet-it-all shot
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
whichever way I turn
whichever way I go
what should I do? I'm always wondering
I couldn't even decide my own path
it had already been decided
that's the kind of person I always was
I hope you never give up because of me
somewhere exists an Avalon
hidden in the clouds behind courage, unwavered
if nothing else, I have drive
call me out someday
(chorus)
take off
trembling, I'm awakening, and asking
pave the way
with you by me, I won't be losing anytime soon
why have I been filling with doubt all this time?
to triumph while smiling peacefully
let's capture countless wishes in this well
(end chorus)
(bridge)
strong yet so gentle
spread your wings, embrace the wind of silver
(chorus)
shake up
for the first time, I realized, I'll surrender
take a shot
I look around and all I see is you
the meaning of fighting without hesitating
there's nothing worth losing
take off
trembling, I'm awakening, and asking
pave the way
with you by me, I won't be losing anytime soon
why have I been filling with doubt all this time?
to triumph while smiling peacefully
let's capture countless wishes in this well
(end chorus)
Deep Sea
(verse 1)
bearing unsaid thoughts
searching for my heart's own place to call home
a longing
the swirling depths of my heart
seem to be breaking now in the tide
whoever I talk to about this
or go through this with
I still don't sway
I'm not satisfied
it's all for nothing
(chorus)
it might be a dream
it might be a lie
unchanging things do not exist anywhere
if it's a dream
wake me up, please
say it's a lie that I want to believe
a little longer
(end chorus)
(verse 2)
blaming yourself
and crying regretfully
over things that occurred in the past, that's crumbled
it's so late everything's been washed away
I seem to be drowning in my blood
remember how to breathe, upping the speed all the way
let's go searching for an unaddressed eternity
(chorus)
accepting everything
bare yourself everywhere
with a lightened heart
that pushes right through
understanding everything
in your bare state weakening
swim towards the light
shining on the water's surface
dive in
(end chorus)
(chorus)
it might be a dream
it might be a lie
unchanging things do not exist anywhere
if it's a dream
wake me up, please
say it's a lie that I want to believe
a little longer
when you're pulled from the deep sea
played by the sounds of waves' melody
good for you, you made it from being buried
if you've pulled the deep seas out
you'll shine much more beautifully
without doubt too
(end chorus)
Hello! Thank you for reading! I never noticed before until recently how many views this little blog gets. I mostly just use it as a creative space for all my silly ideas. However, I wanted to make a note on MEDIEVAL. I was wondering what it would be like to "have cowriters." As most of the other lyrics I have written has either been all or mostly me with maybe a few borrowed lines here and there. This time, the inspiration was Mizuki Nana. I love her so much! Please listen to her songs! I just love her discography so much. It really takes your imagination to new highs. So this time I wanted to write songs super freely and give them a lot of imagination and atmosphere and tell stories that aren't everyday.
This album is just the first in a series of upcoming projects. Please look forward to them! I've never done a project on this scale before. As a result, I was afraid I would run out of ideas or become repetitive. So that was where the "hey, what about cowriters?" idea came from. So I want to give a very special thank you to Ongaku Densetsu for many translations of Mizuki Nana's lyrics. Sometimes I would just borrow those and tweak some words to fit the melodies of the songs. Sometimes I just wrote my own translations. And then other times I just completely wrote my own ideas to the melodies. I really enjoyed this project! It has helped me to grow as a lyricist. And although I'll never be famous, it's just nice to be creative and leave my troubles or even victories and celebrations here.
The title of MEDIEVAL may seem a little farfetched right now. The lyrics don't have to do much with that time period in many cases. But, I think we as people can go through medieval periods in our lives. And what comes after those times? A RENAISSANCE.
