Under the sky, above the waves...

BOUQUET AND STARS


I've detached from everything now, my body's gone numb
I'll go and pretend I'm free from all my problems
I don't know what to do to survive, I can't find a guide
So we'll swallow eachother, this horror and I

What is it that I still need to learn?
I've been trying my hardest to find and understand the truth
Though I'd much rather drift by and live ignorantly for all of time
What is it that I still haven't done?
I've been running towards the future, but the past catches up
I pass by everything and my heart clouds up, totally untouched

I've been wanting to loosen these nerves that tighten every time
It's not the kind of thing that one can do so easily
I just want to turn my eyes away
I don't need the outcomes to be set in stone, don't need to know
Because no matter what
Each prayer I make just wastes away

I plead, O light, stay by my side
Chase the sorrows far out of sight
Let's take the path that's drowned in darkness, that not a soul will ever find
For each fruitless day that passes, memorialize them with one bouquet
I won't let even a single petal dare wither away
I'll see what lies in wake

These theories I've built up tower far above the world
But there's just no explanation for
Why I don't want to be the person that I am
My faith wavers, gloomier with every day
Even if I run right towards that shape
The whole world decides to rip my one goal far away

Even in the case that there's nobody to blame
I'll still put the curse in your mouth, I'll retort some amount
In the end I'm alone, afraid
There's a truth that I want to reach, but I can't spit it out
The prayers that are still here
Will go unanswered once again

I plead, O tears, come to my side
Scar my heart 'til it's bleeding bright
The pain that never stops acts as my only signpost towards wrong and right
I don't ever want it all to cease, I'll repeat my grief eternally
Though it's so tiring, it's the only thing I can do to fight
Each day, morning to night

Ah, let every word go unsaid
I'll accept it all in stead
I don't need to wonder what's between the lines
The truth, though I cannot grasp it yet
Still waits patiently at rest
I'm silent, but I'm very certain this time

The stars that will vanish come the dawn
Laugh as we still linger on
When the sun shines, I'm sure we'll all say good night
This dream will last for an eternity
I'm surely hoping

We are involved and are intertwined
Then hurt eachother - in tears, we cry
We split away again, betrayed
Going our own ways
The same fate every time

I plead, O light, stay by my side
Chase the sorrows far out of sight
Let's take the path that's drowned in darkness, that not a soul will ever find
For each uncertain day that comes, memorialize it with one bouquet
No more asking when the despair will end, since I have the say
I won't let even a single petal dare wither away
I'll live life, day by day
