Release

Lyrics taken from "No More Words" by Hamasaki Ayumi (translations)

Firstly, thanks to Audrey, Jaja, K and Heng for your support, really appreciate it :)

........................................................................

Surely, surely as we
live we know more.
And, and as we live
we forget.

........................................................................

I've always wondered,
How many of us actually look at life differently?
I mean, every person has their own perspective,
Yet most of them are...
...negative

........................................................................

Things that begin
always have an end.
If you can live on,
think always of that.

........................................................................

No matter how religious they are,
No matter how many loved ones they have,
There is always some dark abyss somewhere,
In their confused souls,
Am I one of them?

...I don't know...

........................................................................

If this world were split into
winners and losers,
I'd rather be a loser.
I always want to be a loser.

........................................................................

Today's world is so much different...
Little things affect many,
I wonder...
Are people "programmed" that way?
...But I doubt it...
It's most likely caused by the influence,
Of their own darkness.

........................................................................

Surely, surely we are
more beautiful when we're sad.
That's why, that's why we are
dirtier when we're sad.

........................................................................

Why do people smile when they are actually sad?
Even I do that too...
But why? Is it some kind of reflex?
Why can't we be honest with our feelings?
Is it a barrier to protect ourselves...?
A barrier set by darkness or light?

........................................................................

To protect us and ours,
we must sacrifice something yet again.
Those who can live on
think always of that.

........................................................................

Sacrifice...
Something many shiver at the sound of it...
Something which requires courage, faith...
...love...

........................................................................

What can I tell you?
I'm just a small, helpless person.
That's all I'll say for now
because sometimes words
are completely powerless.

........................................................................

Maybe I muse around too much?
I do agree that
words are not always powerful...

But thoughts...
...they do wonders...


School life is still tough, but I'm hanging on...
I might not be as happy right now, but I'm being honest...
I'm hanging on to my little piece of faith,
Thoughts that do wonders...
Thoughts that help me hang on.
