deep crimson drops split from my dreams
drip into the whiteness to give birth to ripples
i’m intrigued yet lost in the loneliness covering my memories
such everlasting memories

traces of scars that i found upon recalling the past
are remnants of you
they are burned into my memory, open for all to see

though our bond is still alive, someday its breathing will quiet
a twisting spiral fashioned not by Möbius
i scatter the frustrations with my growing strength
still able to meet the dimming light…

even if time could help the footsteps heading for tomorrow
its kindness cannot be exchanged using humble expectation
the awoken crystals weave hundreds of colors
and warp the frustration with cold-hearted illusions

i wept as i thought about you
the trace of your kiss is all i have left
a final wind sways through my bangs

the misery is unbearable, love is too much
i am falling apart in this state, pain is just second thought now
but though my spirit is unsteady from the weakness attacking my chest
i can still meet a new dawn…

even though i drown in the darkness as my wings tear to pieces
when the night brings back the light in the sky, i’ll keep flying ahead!

the misery is unbearable, love is too much
i am falling apart in this state, pain is just second thought now
i scatter the frustrations with my growing strength
still able to meet a dim light of hope…
