Flow

These days don’t disappear like bubbles.

Today, again, I’m hoping for a hint of presence on the other side of the door.

Even though the words of the yesterday that pretended to be tomorrow finally disappeared,

What I can do to keep hold over everything of yours is the only thing I’m thinking about.

Your voice overflows through this parched room.

As though searching for water, I’m calling for you.

Waiting for a favorable wind, I sharpen my ears.

As though searching for water, I’m calling for you.

These days don’t disappear like bubbles.

Today, again, I’m hoping for a hint of presence on the other side of the night.

Even though I know full well that a tomorrow the same as yesterday won’t come,

What I can do to keep hold over everything of yours is the only thing I’m thinking about.

Your voice overflows through this parched room.

As though searching for water, I’m calling for you.

Waiting for a favorable wind, I sharpen my ears.

As though searching for water, I’m calling for you.

At this point, I step back, clicking my heels.

As though searching for water, I’m calling for you.

Beating Heart

Eyes make their peace in difficulties
With wounded lips and salted cheeks
And finally we step to leave
To the departure lounge of disbelief

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
And I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time
Before daylight

In the canyon underneath the trees
Behind the dark sky, you looked at me
I fell for you like autumn leaves 
Never faded, evergreen

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
'Cause I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time

I can't face this now everything has changed
I just wanna be by your side, here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight

The Moon Song

I'm lying on the moon

My dear, I'll be there soon

It's a quiet starry place

Time's we're swallowed up

In space we're here a million miles away

There's things I wish I knew

There's nothing I keep from you

It's a dark and shiny place

But with you my dear

I'm safe and we're a million miles away

We're lying on the moon

It's a perfect afternoon

Your shadow follows me all day

Making sure that I'm okay and

We're a million miles away

Somewhere Out There

Last time I talked to you
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space
We laid underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling brave
I watched the red orange glow
I watched you float away

Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
You've gone to save your tired soul
You've gone to save our lives

I turned on the radio
To find you on satellite
I’m waiting for this sky to fall
I’m waiting for a sign
All we are
Is all so far

You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there

You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there

Hope you remember me
When you're home sick 
and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you'll come back someday
On a bed of nails I’ll wait
I’m praying that you don’t burn out
Or fade away
All we are
Is all so far

You're falling back to me
You're a star that I can see
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there

You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you're out there
Somewhere out there

You're falling back to me
I know
You're falling out of reach
I know

Find You

Silent love is calling faith
To shatter me through your hallways
Into echoes you can feel
And rehearse the way you heal

High on words 
We almost used 
We're fireworks with a wet fuse
Flying planes with paper wheels
To the same Achilles heels

Open up your skies
Turn up your night
To the speed of life
Turn up your night
Put your love in lights
Turn up your night
I will find you

I'll run away with your foot steps
I'll build a city that dreams for two
And if you lose yourself
I will find you

Make them dance 
Just like you
Cause you make me move 
Yeah you always make go

Message

You make me lonely, easily, you make me happy with one word
The little fight last night has still not been resolved, so I’m waiting yes
Cause I wanna feel you, every day, every night, want to connect with you quickly

Just wanna get your message now, message now, I love you, your casual messages, messages, please repeat them.

For I will be up and down and my tears will disappear
That’s why your message, I believe it’s for real

The thousands of message exchange have strengthened an unseen love
Though they seem meaningless, they may be the most important, wanna share our day
Please tell me your story, I wanna hear it, doesn't matter if it’s not cool

Just that and my weather will change
I’m waiting for you, today, also tomorrow

Believe it’s for real, I will easily go up and down and tears will disappear
This message of yours, I believe it’s for real

The Wolves

Someday my pain
Someday my pain will mark you
Harness your blame
Harness your blame, walk through

With the wild wolves around you
In the morning, I'll call you
Send it farther on

Solace my game
Solace my game, it stars you
Swing wide your crane
Swing wide your crane and run me through

And the story's all over
In the morning, I'll call you
Can't you find a clue
When your eyes are all painted Sinatra blue

What might have been lost
What might have been lost
What might have been lost
What might have been lost

Don't bother me
What might have been lost

Someday my pain
Someday my pain, my pain
Someday my pain
Someday my pain

Youth

They didn't warn me
When I was running wild
The dragons breathing fire
In the backyard at night

We live in circles
And it's so hard to breathe
Maybe the same old fears
What have we here?
Don't bring me down
With you

Now I'm just chasing time
With a thousand dreams I'm holding heavy
And as we cross the line these fading beats have all been severed
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

If I asked you for good news
Would you smile and turn away?
It's like a bad dream
That is too afraid to wake

There are many among us
And we're changing all the time
Maybe the same old fears
What have we here?
Don't bring me down
With you

Now I'm just chasing time
With a thousand dreams I'm holding heavy
And as we cross the line these fading beats have all been severed
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

These fading beats…
A thousand dreams…
These fading beats…
A thousand dreams…
It's only just begun

Strangers

Nothing more than strangers 
Passing by out on the street
Memories are fading though 
It's only been a week
All the little things are gone 
The things we used to be
Nobody could take us down 
There was only you and me

And without you I can't be
You're the universe to me
You're the air in my lungs
You're the fields where I run
You're the sky where I'm floating

It's you, you, you
It's you!

And without you I can't be
You're the universe to me
You're the air in my lungs
You're the fields where I run
You're the sky where I'm floating

It's you, you, you
It's you!

Don't want to be a stranger
Want to be the one you need
I can be your world, your life
Your lover, all for free
All the little things come back
The things we used to be
Nobody can take us down there
It's only you and me

And without you I can't be

You're the universe to me
You're the air in my lungs
You're the fields where I run
You're the sky where I'm floating

Say Something

Say something, I'm giving up on you.
I'll be the one, if you want me to.
Anywhere I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.

And I am feeling so small.
It was over my head
I know nothing at all.

And I will stumble and fall.
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl.

Say something, I'm giving up on you.
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you.
Anywhere I would've followed you.
Say something, I'm giving up on you.

And I will swallow my pride.
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye.

Say something, I'm giving up on you.
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you.
And anywhere I would've followed you. 
Say something, I'm giving up on you.

Say something, I'm giving up on you.
Say something...

The Scientist

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart

Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming in tails
Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start.

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

Dream Land

I want to live in a dream,
Warped with light, a county with no pain
Drawn by the flower’s fragrance
So I wouldn’t want to return.

In all the perfect places
What do you wish for? An endless country
Why are people afraid?
Since its not a mistake

Dream Land ~ Dream Land within a Dream
You are in a world of lies
Oh ~ lose control 
Don’t lose okay? Come again. 

I really think of you
Without feelings, the poison of the gentle words.
Even though you are noticing, its difficult
Because I am scared of losing you.

Dream Land ~ Dream Land within a Dream
You are in a world of lies
Oh ~ lose control 
Don’t lose Dream Land

Come again, Come again
You can go back again.
Since I’m pulling your arm

Dream Land ~ Dream Land within a Dream
You are in a world of lies
Oh ~ lose control 
Don’t lose okay? Come again

Come again

Clarity

    High dive into frozen waves where the past comes back to life Fight fear for the selfish pain And it's worth it every time Hold still right before we crash Cause we both know how this ends our clock ticks till it breaks your glass And I drown in you again   Cause you are the piece of me I wish I didn't need Chasing relentlessly Still fight and I don't know why   If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy If our love's insanity why are you my clarity   Walk on through a red parade And refuse to make amends It cuts deep through our ground And makes us forget all common sense Don't speak as I try to leave Cause we both know what we'll choose If you pull, then I'll push too deep And I'll fall right back to you   Cause you are the piece of me I wish I didn't need Chasing relentlessly Still fight and I don't know why   If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy If our love's insanity why are you my clarity Why are you my remedy ...? Why are you my remedy ...? If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy If our love's insanity why are you my clarity

Spectrum

Breathing you in when I want you out
Finding our truth in a hope of doubt
Lying inside our quiet drama

Wearing your heart like a stolen dream
Opening skies with your broken keys
No one can blind us any longer

We'll run where lights won't chase us
Hide where love can save us
I will never let you go

Breathing you in when I want you out
Finding our truth in a hope of doubt

Lying inside our quiet drama

Siren# (サイレン#)

I love AKFG so much and all their lyrics in their song always strike a cord in me. This is one of my favorite songs. The lyrics have so much pain and yet, it's a beautiful song because many of us can relate to it.

The thick fingers on your hand
The white feather that floats through the night
One day you'll surely forget me
You don't need someone like me, I'm sure
The city lights reflected on the car windows
The tears blur into the shadows, frame by frame

I'll disappear without even understanding
The reason I was even born
The light that streams in and divides the darkness
The impatience for tomorrow that even now won't go away

The pain that persists without reason
How could anybody ever find me?
My white wings won't even open
One day I'll surely fall apart

Someone like me will just disappear, I'm sure
The city lights reflected on the car windows
The tears blur into the shadows, frame by frame
The world will end without me even understanding
The reason I ever even met you

Stand

You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright

Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand, Then you stand

Life's like a novel
With the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
With only one way down
Take what you're given before its gone
Start holding on, keep holding on

Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend till you break
Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand

Everytime you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place

Catch My Breath

I don't wanna be left behind
Distance was a friend of mine
Catching breath in a web of lies
I've spent most of my life
Riding waves, playing acrobat
Shadowboxing the other half
Learning how to react
I've spent most of my time

Catching my breath, letting it go,
Turning my cheek for the sake of the show
Now that you know, this is my life,
I won't be told what's supposed to be right

Catch my breath, no one can hold me back,
I ain't got time for that
Catch my breath, won't let them get me down,
It's all so simple now

Addicted to the love I found
Heavy heart, now a weightless cloud
Making time for the ones that count
I'll spend the rest of my time
Laughing hard with the windows down
Leaving footprints all over town
Keeping faith, karma comes around
I will spend the rest of my life

Catching my breath, letting it go,
Turning my cheek for the sake of the show
Now that you know, this is my life,
I won't be told what's supposed to be right

Catch my breath, no one can hold me back,
I ain't got time for that
Catch my breath, won't let them get me down,
It's all so simple now

You helped me see
The beauty in everything

Catch my breath, no one can hold me back,
I ain't got time for that
Catch my breath, won't let them get me down,
It's all so simple now
It's all so simple now

Catching my breath, letting it go,
Turning my cheek for the sake of the show
Now that you know, this is my life,
I won't be told what's supposed to be right

Catch my breath, no one can hold me back,
I ain't got time for that
Catch my breath, won't let them get me down,
It's all so simple now

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.”

~ Nano

Solace

 

I just stood and looked at her. I guess it’s getting to be too much for her, at times – even for her. I do not think she allows herself to know how tired she is. She was asleep on the sofa. She had been there all night. She looked like a young girl. She looked as if she felt certain that she would awaken in a world where no one would harm her, as if she had nothing to hide or to fear. But what I saw after that was terrible: that guiltless purity of her face, with her body twisted by exhaustion, still lying there as she had collapsed…
