[Intro] In the depth of night, an extra light was trembling. A lonely girl with another eye whispered, “I want to go home,” and a distant foreign wind answered her call. [Verse 1] You appeared from an old forgotten box, carrying the shadow of an abandoned province. Behind your smile, a thousand years of night were quietly hidden away. [Verse 2] The moment I was given a body that cannot die, I felt something I needed to protect before the pain. I could have run away, but somehow I couldn’t let go of your hand. [Chorus] No matter how many times I fall, it won’t be the end. If you wish it, I’ll rise again. Even if three earthen claws tear through the dark, I won’t let anyone steal your tears. [Verse 3] A black shadow devoured the city, and ghosts of the past called out to you. I couldn’t say “It’s okay,” so I simply stood in front of you. [Verse 4] Why do you smile, even though you’re hurt because of me? I’m scared, yet somehow happy, because I learned I’m no longer alone. Even though this other-eyed self can only destroy, you still reached out and said, “Even so…” [Bridge] At the final sacred place we reached, you remembered your true wish. Even if it meant parting, all I could do was push your back gently. [Big Finish] With the light you gave me held close, I must go where I’m meant to go. I’m truly afraid of being alone, but I don’t want to steal your future. The promise beneath the red moon pushes me forward one last time. Please don’t cry—your kindness is what lets me keep walking. [Outro] I whispered your name into the dawn, knowing it would never reach you. The hand I should have protected is one I can no longer touch. The more precious your choice becomes, the deeper this pain sinks in. Still, I’ll keep walking toward the future you wished for, so that someday, we can smile again.
