 「絶望へ歩みながら、儚い希望を背負う。」   “Drifting toward despair, yet bearing a fragile hope.” ✦・━・✦・━・✦・━・✦ Lyrics : Murasaki https://x.com/Murasaki_pop ※English lyrics are listed at the bottom. © 2025 Murasaki ✦・━・✦・━・✦・━・✦ [Intro] [Verse 1]  希望は渇きに似て──  それでも私は、歩みを止めぬ  風にさらわれる声は 弱々しく  影を散らす暁は ただ ただ遠く [Pre-Chorus 1]  重ねたため息が 胸を締めつけ  歩みは重く 沈みそうになる [Chorus 1]  求める先は 遥かに遠く  鋭い光が胸の奥を 静かに削る  叶わぬ夢と わかっていても  幻にすがって 歩き続ける  ──耳に響く軋む音は   私の骨か 心か [Verse 2]  希望は渇きに似て──  それでも私は、歩みを止めぬ  瞳を閉じれば 崩れる景色  優しさも温もりも 閉ざしたのは 私 [Pre-Chorus 2]  背中を伝う感情は 熱を失い  冷たい刃が 心を切り離す [Chorus 2]  求める先は 遥かに遠く  冷たい風が胸の奥を 静かに裂く  崩れる未来しか 見えなくても  幻にすがって 歩き続ける  ──目に宿す未来は   希望か 絶望か [Bridge]  耳を塞いでも 心を腐らせていく  目を伏せても 心を切り刻んでいく  時が経つほど 浮かぶ未来の輪郭は鋭く [Final Chorus]  求める先は 遥かに遠く  闇の中で胸の奥を 静かに焦がす  叶わぬ夢と わかっていても  幻にすがって 歩き続ける  ──乾いた胸に残るのは   祈りか 痛みか [END] ✦・━・✦・━・✦・━・✦ 《 Thirst of Hope - English Ver.》 [Intro] [Verse 1] Hope resembles thirst── yet still, I cannot halt my steps. My voice, swept away by the wind, grows frail. The dawn that scatters shadows lies only, only far away. [Pre-Chorus 1] Layered sighs tighten my chest, each step grows heavy, sinking deep. [Chorus 1] The place I seek is distant, unreachable. A sharpened light quietly carves my heart. Even knowing it’s a dream that will never be, I cling to illusions and keep on walking. ──The creaking sound that echoes in my ears—  Is it my bones, or my heart? [Verse 2] Hope resembles thirst── yet still, I cannot halt my steps. Closing my eyes, the scenery collapses. Even kindness, even warmth— it was I who sealed them away. [Pre-Chorus 2] Emotions trailing down my back lose their warmth. A frozen blade severs my heart apart. [Chorus 2] The place I seek is distant, unreachable. A cold wind quietly rends my heart. Even if all I see is a crumbling future, I cling to illusions and keep on walking. ──The future in my eyes—  Is it hope, or is it despair? [Bridge] Even if I cover my ears, it rots my heart. Even if I cast my eyes down, it carves my soul apart. The more time passes, the sharper the outline of the future that rises before me. [Final Chorus] The place I seek is distant, unreachable. In the darkness, my heart quietly burns. Even knowing it’s a dream that will never be, I cling to illusions and keep on walking. ──And what remains in this withered chest—  Is it prayer, or is it pain?
