Now or Never



Lost, I groped around, looking for it
But the answer to the future has been locked away
And I can’t find it anywhere
An urge to dash out, I can’t decipher it right now

Found, that fate should have been broken
Yet I heard it in my immature dream
“Until the last moment, I’ll be there for you”

I won’t stop here, this clock’s hand is the only thing
That cuts through the sounds carving out my tomorrow
If I run away from the truth now
If I lose to reality now
What will be left?

My countless wounds are the only things
That can tell the story of my yesterday as afterimages
Even if the knots of fate are loosened now
Even if my existence is destroyed now
I will keep walking on my own way
It’s now or never

Breathe, I reached a dead end and lost it
Days when I struggled alone, wishing someone would save me
Holding on to such sentiments, I’m in a desperate situation now

Cry, my uncontrollably flowing tears
Are moistening my dried-up heart
As I throw away my faded past

All the words go around in my head
searching for the signs I misread
black or white, wrong or right
it’s an inner war we all fight

Somewhere, buried under these lies
I can see a truth that hides beyond your eyes
in the tears you cry

This is my life
I don’t know where to begin
I’ve been wandering
looking for the voices within
This is my life
Think I’ve found a place to begin
This is my life
This is my life

Only the heart that you reached out to
Lights up the present moment, leading us on our way
Without turning back, I can start now
Without being afraid, I can step out
I’ll pave my own way and go ahead

I won’t stop here, this clock’s hand is the only thing
That cuts through the sounds carving out my tomorrow
If I run away from the truth now
If I lose to reality now
What will be left?

My countless wounds are the only things
That can tell the story of my yesterday as afterimages
Even if the knots of fate are loosened now
Even if my existence is destroyed now
I will keep walking on my own way
It’s now or never

This is what they say
“Live your life today.
There will always be,
there will always be a way.”
