save me again

I’m uneasy again yet another day and start thinking of your fading figure
in the recesses of rusty memories
there was nothing I could say to you
I was only searching for an excuse to deny my weak self

I was escaping my fears, wasn’t I? I didn’t realize then that the intimidating reality was making me cry
I was about to lose my mind…

the strength I had was not enough for me to live like myself, was it?
the landscape reflecting in my eyes
gave no hint of my whereabouts
the way I hurt you hurt me, too
yet I believe you gave me a strength
I need to run to a new tomorrow

as time went on, I looked down the endless road
precisely at the place where our past had stopped

the ambiguous shape of a dream drawn by that small place in time
is still unclear to me…

you taught me the meaning of these overflowing tears
so I can be the real me again
to make up for the things I lost,
I will still keep walking in search of the light I have yet to see
even if I might look away from the present
I only look for that kind of strength now…

the strength I had was not enough for me to live like myself, was it?
the landscape reflecting in my eyes
gave no hint of my whereabouts
the way I hurt you hurt me, too
I believe you gave me a strength
I need to run to a new tomorrow
