光の歌 Rhythm Of The Light

私には忘れきれない
その苦笑い、その微笑み
かわいいかわいい君に
言葉さえ伝えられたら

いなくなったりそばにいたり
いつも二人でこのペースで
どうして人は傷つくの?
みんな仲良くしたらよかったのに

僕を見つけてくれてありがとう
言いたくて言えなくて伝わったのかな?
ゆっくり君が歩いた
僕に背中を向けて

私は存在しきれない
この体もこの魂もいつか
強い強い君に
最後に歌を謡わせて

君が教えてくれた道
いつも光がさしている
嫌な人が消えてゆく
大切な仲間とともに

僕を見つけてくれてありがとう
言いたくて言ったって笑ってくれた
消えてゆく背中に
涙が隠せない

Wings

The calm one wins
You tell that to others
You show them how it's done
People wonder at your calmness
Some even thought you're just damn stupid
And still you're not the least offended
I could almost swear you're happy
Then I'll also tell you how stupid you are
Coz in the fight that's been going on
Across countless centuries and dimensions
Every single time
You fight them with rage

As time moves backward
In pitch black outer space
From star to star you went
With that black cloud after you
Yours is of a different face
Those ever sparkling eyes
Becomes full of killing intents till the red veins showed
Your crooked half-smile reeks of hatred
Do you even notice you're no longer dancing?
Just foolishly swinging your spear around you
You've become a fool
Not a single drop of your history
Till I care no longer
For the tears and blood that you shed

Shed tears, shed blood
I'm tired of this pace

When time moves back forward
Sometimes it stays behind, sometimes it gets along
And using that mere gap of a time
Se went back
To those waiting for hem
And history rewrites itself again
Se lives that picturesque life of hes again
Sending hes warm aura everywhere
Showing that calmly smiling expression
You idiot
If only you'd remember that when you're alone
Then we won't need to have our hearts beating so furiously

This hand of mine
It's done so many damages in my world
These feet of mine
They overtake lightnings
These eyes of mine
See through the heart of a person
Yet with all these capabilities
I couldn't lend a finger to help you
I can't even see who your enemy is
Therefore don't be ridiculous
Remember the wings you possess

To Snip The Thread

Don't bear it anymore my trusted friend
I'm ready to do this on my own
No longer a little, I have grown
So you can let go now

My heart breaks to say goodbye
But I won't cry
Because this is my tale

A hundred years by my side
Through countless stories
You need not worry anymore
You can let go now

I was young and stupid
And you're always a mystery
Till it is unraveled
Farewell

Somehow I learned to love
Found companions and life
You're not real anymore
But you're always my friend

Don't be afraid to let go
I'm not alone
And the seasons have returned
I'll remember the warmth of your hands
Goodbye my friend
My dear friends

The Traveler

It's been what? 3 years? Since the war
The same place but not quite the same thing
I know I won't see the place I once knew again
Tears of sadness are useless coz then again
This is just another journey

Here my name is this, there my name is that
Back then my name was something-something
I was born on earth
Just a few years behind
But I travel through time
To distant places across galaxies
Minds and dreams all the same

Fighting, loving, teaching, and learning
All those stuff, all those tragedies
My tears have fallen uncountable times
To regret the mistakes I made
That cost the lives of many
And though sometimes time is reversible
Memories will be overwritten
Till nobody remembers the uneventful things
That I still remember

Alas, the time will come
For this journey to be over
It is still far away
For now stretch out
And finish this adventure to get to the next

Sheesh

You looked at the wave of humans
And the night lights around you
Sighed, another day had passed

They talk and they chat
They care not what you may think
With ease you keep yourself apart
Their major interests bore you the most
Flinging your bag to your shoulders
You went away from their mean smirks
Yet you yawn and got along with your three friends
Other than the four of you
There is no one that you care about
Everyone sucks, you hate them

Even after you met that person
It wasn't long before you had to go
Across the universe, over galaxies
Penetrating through the night sky
Where the stars shine ever so bright
Losing your leader
Searching for her

As you tread the new earth
Hats and sunglasses and all
Else those you loathe will see you
And say things you hate the most
Your place, this place, what's the difference?
Everyone still sucks, everyone still doesn't understand
What it is that you look for

They say they love you
But will they when it's over?

Trudging among the leaves
You stared at the night sky
With autumn breeze blowing stiffly
Eventhough you hate those people
There's no way you can stand seeing them tremble
You'll give your strength to protect them
And when the terror's over
Continue to hate their insolence

But when there is nothing left to protect
What can you do?

At the end of it all
You returned to the arms of that person
Crying your heart out
For all the failures and suffering
As the sun rose beneath the horizon
That person told you that the nightmare is not yet over
But those around you that you care
They care for you just as much
You know you can go through this life
Eventhough except for some people
You still hate everyone
Therefore with your own hands you'll shape them
Into people you can accept

Red Flower

There is a person
Standing on the beach
With meaningful eyes
Just staring at the ocean
They'll always remember
The way hes long hair is blown by the wind

At the water edges se stands
Surrounded by them
Their weapons point out at hem
As se recalls a story
Se looks up at the sky
Gazing into the universe
Asking the same question
"Where do I belong?"

A place se used to call home
Now seeks hes life
Se's a blood-thirst ravager
Who has no desire to return
As they thrust their weapons
Se sighes
All se wants is
To place a white flower on a sword
Which marks the grave
Of the only one who knew the truth
But no matter how se tries
Se always fails

There is a tale
Of a child still-born
They offered hem to the demons
In exchange for serenity
And for reasons no one knows
The child lives
Se grows up strong
To have hes revenge
Till now the tale lives
The story keeps on being repeated
From ancestor to grandchildren
The demon child's tale

There is a person
Standing on a beach
Scattered with people
Holding a red flower
Se stares at the sword
And walks up to it
Holding out the bloody offer
Adding to the rest

Se kneels and prays
With that emotionless face
As someone creeps up from behind
Raising high an axe
And down it goes
Slicing the air
Along with the hands
Thudding the ground
The man saw the flames
In the eyes of the person
But se just turned hes back
And walked back to the shore

As night falls
Se stands at the seashore
The sound of the rocking waves
Goes far and wide
Just another planet
Just another galaxy
If you see hem try to say hello
Because se may be there for a moment
And the next thing you know
Se never appears again

On The Ring Of Existence

この指にする指輪は
君を表してる

Waking up from a long, long sleep
And sun rays piercing through the curtains
どんな夢を見たか?
Without bothering about pyjamas
Treading on the spring grass
Smiled
As se embraced the unexpecting figure
先に君に会えてよかった

On the edge of the universe
A planet as alike but different
A gap in the star chart
Silent planet, isolated
On the edge of the ring
The sphere of existence
An ocean as blue
A sky as bright
And three stars round a jewel
Though a little different it's the same
In a notebook
Write down its name

Like a cerebrus among pheonixs
Yet in another unknown world
Charms that attract though restrained
Or it may be just foolishness
Be what it may
Be far it be
This ring proves all
An irreplaceable green gem

Goodbye is but a while
People meet and meet again
But nostalgia stays
So preserve those blue skies
A place for someone to return to

Moths

Once again I saw the moon behind the clouds
I try to call out to the stars
And once again
I realize that there is no one waiting for me
There is no place that would accept me
How long do I have to run
Before the night ends
Could this be there is all to life

Does it feel good to lie awake at night
In the black casket just staring up at the sky
And I hear some voices moaning
But turns out it was just the wind
I'm left alone again

Why are there only black moths perching on my hands

Once again I saw the red moon in the sky
I saw a white star fades out
Everynight
I wait and wonder if sleep will come
To these heavy eyes of mine
How long do I have to watch
Till these eyes close
Could this be there is all to life

Midnight Never Ends

Combing your silky hair in front of the mirror
Placing down the comb, putting on a mask
You walked gracefully into the ballroom
With that person at your side
Yes, that's how it is
Your life
Is like a masquerade

When you are there
Your laughter is prettier
Than the tinkling of bells
With that velvety scent
Drawing people towards you
You await them with that gesture, with that smile
Your hand held out welcoming
You're an idol, a very beautiful one

Everytime you dance
Stars bloom one by one
The moment you stare into people's eyes
They'll be at loss for words
The moment you gaze from the corner of your eyes
People melt, not a shred of conscious left
Will you remember
That carefree life you lead
As soon as you fall asleep?
Because at midnight
That nightmare will begin


Every night, every midnight
A long, long dream
Without anyone you recognize
A lonely world
Although you retain that charm
You can no longer poise gracefully
If you do, they'll take advantage of it
That fragrance of yours
And you'll be left smeared in black
Crouching in a corner, crying
With fake saviours all around
How can you afford to stand?
But you kept on rising
Till you can bear it no more

A dream that's longer than reality
Why should it exist?
On nights when no stars are visible
You ask to yourself again and again
You cry unseen tears
When you think no one's looking
You didn't see that hidden figure
Beneath the shadows, behind the trees
That person watching your sufferings
But se couldn't reach out a hand to help
Whenever se calls out to you
You'd respond with a smile
Out of confusion, you created that barrier
Repelling those who tried to help you

Do you hear that person's cry
As se regrets hes inability to save you?
Will you stop those remarks
About the fate of a traveler?
Don't you want the nightmare to end?
Or are you better off alone?

On top of a canyon
Shooting stars can be seen
The starry sky spread out wide
A universe
There you were, with the persons that you love
Who you would throw away your life for
At times like that, you'd love to forget
The terrible nightmare haunting your sleeps

The starry sky
Is an infinite times better than sunset
You who fell in love with the starry sky
You whose lover's name is the night sky
Do you remember?
Who created the night sky

Once again the nightmare begins
The darkness slices open your heart
Everytime you sleep
It is painful, too painful
But you've finally realized
Even in there, you are never alone
The same night sky
The same creator
Someone still cares

As morning rays pierce through the clouds
The long nightmare takes a break
It will start again
It will not stop just yet
You sat in deep thoughts
Remembering the tears that person shed
You tried to hide your sufferings
But to no avail
Despite your cool attitude and naughty grins
They saw the pain in your eyes everytime the sun sets
You ran to where the stars play everynight
Because you cannot sleep
Do you think no one knows about it?
You don't like it when that person cries
It is your fault and you know it

You hold knowledge about darkness
You bear missions darker than darkness
No matter what, you don't wish
For your beloved companions to get involved
Thus you'll take down the barrier
Let that person help by being the weak one
And cry on hes shoulders when you're dying inside

You are still a traveler
But your strength comes from someone greater
Someone who will be by your side
For eternity

Lights, Camera, Action

I do not understand
What it feels like to be a star
I've never been one myself
And will never be for real
They told me don't
Whether realizing it or not
That is what they conveyed to me
That is their message

Like a song I once heard
A world full of lies
Just waiting to be added more and more
To this world where nobody cares
Lies are exquisite
People live in dreams

To this little traveler
Lies are but absolute evil
That world where everything's so beautiful
When behind it lie tears and blood
People know, yet people cherish
Is it imbecility? I don't think so
People are just tired
Too tired of reality

I've seen and known people who tried to escape
Away from reality because it hurts
But it won't do no good
Alas I only managed to assure myself
Again I watch as idols dance on stage
With their make-up smeared smiles
And gears that make them sweat heavily inside
All the way just for the audience
It's true affection they say

I've seen, I've felt
The feelings of idols, though I'm not part of them
Because I'm THE traveler
I don't need a mind reading prox
Or a prox with visions
What's in front of me tells me
The things they're hiding
They told me of their terrible lives
Of the things they had to endure
They complained of being unable to be
Who they naturally tend to be
Of the life-long acting on their shoulders
Of the fake smiles and broken hearts
They told me through their twinkling eyes
That there is more than is shown
Behind the scene of 'behind the scene'
There is nothing but shattered souls

Hollow Black

This fear I have
Of that prayer coming true
Lies before my eyes
A scene never seen
A hundred years pass
Soon another hundred
In the blink of an eye
I lost the hope to trust
Don't die on me friend

In a cold metal world
There I sat staring
Looking at the moon
That used to be so small
As I continue this life
Forever waiting
Waiting for
The angel of death that never came to see me
But one by one
Like flowers in the wind
My friends wilt away
Leaving another scar

Again and over again
People meet and love each other
But how am I supposed
To give strength
To this wounded soul
When whenever I see someone
I see written in red
The day se will die

And I still remember
The day when the last person
Among those I used to know
Grows old and dies

A summer hotter than before
A winter colder than usual
Hearts that grow colder
A body that stays rejuvenated
There was once a time
When I prayed for a long life
Never expected it to come true
Nor to be this painful

I was there when the last civillians died
Watching judgement day pass by
I stood between hell and heaven
And finally realized
That I'm alone

As the sun rises
Back to the time
A hundred centuries ago
I wake up from a long, long sleep
And hope
For it to stay a dream

Grasping The Unseen

That fragrance
I've smelled it before
A far away memory

Lying awake at night
Listening to silence
I feel the fragrance close by
So close in my grasp
How should I describe
This feeling of eternity

Night gets darker
As clouds block the moonlight
A peaceful sound
Plays in my ears
I try to recollect
Remember a lost scenery
A secret hidden
Deep within

Holding tight
To what's keeping me real
I've seen it before
I've known it before
The serenade
And tranquility

Ghouls Of Memories

Is it good to forget?
Is it easy to forget?
I wonder which is it
Always treasuring my memories
Every part of it
Where my companions are always with me
I want to understand
Why did se decide to forget
No, se didn't just forgot
I know
Se just doesn't want to remember

"Eventhough I will lose my memories,
I won't forget what I learnt each time"
Hes very words
I didn't understand at first
Nor do I now
I want to know
What are the reasons
Behind those tears?
I tried to understand
Why se wakes up at midnight
And cries alone
Never have I seen
Such a weak feature of hem
Se has given me strength
I want to be hes strength now

If I had such experiences
Would I do the same?
Or maybe I'd just keep pitying myself
Is it good to forget?
Is it easy to forget?
Is it because se's forgotten
That se is what se is now?
Does that mean I have to forget
To achieve such level?
But still I can't afford
To lose what I remember
The smiling faces of my companions
The fun we had together
Even the great destruction
But most of all
I don't want to forget
Every single moment with hem
It hurts when I watch hem cry
I'm glad I'm able to comfort
It hurts too much I can't help
It hurts even more seeing hem crumble in my hands

I didn't see with my own eyes
Hes tears gleaming under the moonlight
But I know
Out there
Se is hurt

Is it good to forget?
No good
Because I can't help with anything
Is it easy to forget?
It's easy
But it's no good either
Souls of forgotten memories
Will return and haunt
It's no good!!
Just stop it already
Stop making hem cry!
Memories, whoever you are
I will crush you
I will find you
And put an end to you myself

Emerald Clock

The feelings in us
Of half despair and fear
Throbbing, beating furiously
Flowing tears overtake the sea

Wind blows, shaking the palm trees
Shells washed onto the seashore
Sparkling under the starry sky
Wavers in the distance
Hot tears can’t be stopped
Those who chase mortality
Become waves
And wash us away

Hear the song of the sea
The last melody

Sadness it's always with me
I'm depending on you to save me
This is what I always wanted to ask
Why didn't I cry when I got far from you?
Even though I love you too much?

In the light rain under the night sky
A thousand questions swirl and swirl
I'm losing your hand in the waves
Can I find it back?
All my life, I live for you
Unlike straight bamboo poles
I fall
And washed away

Hear the wind whistling
The last rhythm

It dances, it ballets, the feeling
Wait for me, I'm hoping
I can't swim on my own
Can I find your hand in the darkness?
Don't say it’s over

Unconsciously chained myself to the floor
I can only wait no matter how long
For you to break me free
Certainly I haven't been obedient
Please forgive me for that
One more chance
