"Let Me Be Forgotten" – Ayaka

[Intro – Sparse piano, soft reverb like wind through empty halls] Don’t sing for me. Don’t say my name. I was never meant To stay. [Verse 1 – Soft melody, like snowfall] There’s a chill behind my smile now, A silence in my skin. The girl I was is drifting far— I don’t know where she’s been. I held the blade and bore the oath, I never let them see… But every time I saved a life, It carved a grave in me. [Chorus – Fragile, trembling voice] So let me be forgotten—let the stars forget my light. Let the ribbons turn to ashes, Let my memories lose the fight. No statues, no salvation, No poems carved in stone… Just leave me in the quiet. Let me go unknown. [Verse 2 – Hushed, almost lullaby-like] I used to feel the warmth of dreams, Of futures held in hand… Now I stare through haunted glass At footsteps in the sand. They’ll call it fate. They’ll say I fell. But please—don’t make it grand. I was just a girl who stood too still When no one understood. [Bridge – Broken, voice catches] And maybe I was cruel sometimes— Too sharp, too far, too cold… But no one taught a blade to cry, Just to break and hold. [Chorus – Slightly stronger, still gentle but resigned] So let me be forgotten—let my tale be lost in time. Let the stories skip my chapter, Let the stars reroute the rhyme. No legacy, no lantern, No whispers in the breeze… Just a name you’ll never notice Falling softly through the leaves. [Outro – Piano only, her voice one final note] I was never meant to stay… So please… Don’t remember me that way.
