黒い家
たくさん枯葉
変化の風

House

Black house out of sight
Lots of dead leaves surround me
The winds of change blow

春風に
温かい水
落ちて行く

Water

In the quick spring breeze
Warm droplets of water
Falling through the air

美しく
三月の月
咲き誇れ
私を見てて
私も見てる

Moon

So beautifully
The March moon over my head
Blooming in splendour
It's looking down upon me
And I'm looking up at it

春の花
儚い夢と
落ちて行く

Dream

The flowers of spring
So along with fleeting dreams
Falling through the air

Fragile

We watched it pass
Our fleeting memory
Of times gone by
And those we've lost
We step forward
Into our bleak fate
Grasping weakly
The threads of time that we've

We were one
In our desperation
Our sins grew as roses
And our wings became covered in blood

That which is fragile
Cannot survive the fall
Into the depths of hell
That which is eternal
Cannot survive the fall
Into the depths of mind

Our wounds remain open
And the rose king invites himself in
To our tomb of eternity
We fall screaming through our nightmare

We watched it pass
Our fleeting memory
Of times gone by
And those we've lost
We step forward
Into our bleak fate
Grasping weakly
The threads of time that weave, lost

In a Moment of Weakness

My lips have touched the poison
That you drank in the dead of night
My ears have felt the silence
That you left here in the world
My eyes have seen the decay
That left your skin relenting

In a moment of weakness
You showed me who you are

My lungs have filled with the air
That carried your soul to hell
My hands have felt the blood
Falling from those you killed
My tongue has taste your regret
That colours your broken wings

In a moment of weakness
I reached for you again

The Milk of Human Kindness

When we cry, we reach for the stars we're missing
I'm the only one who can feel this rejection
Your chemical kiss left me immobile in a hospital bed
While you stole the milk of human kindness

I started as a rumour that you spread in quarantine
To prisoners of every day life in a bleak world after
Time stopped at your touch where your blood spilled
Onto thirteen stones entombed in your fear

This liquid sarabande is all we have left
After a single star fell into my hands
And obliterated the world around us

This star that fell, it is my desire for happiness
A feeling that came at the cost of everyone around me
It crushes me, but I can't go back to that isolation

I would surely die here with your heavenly host
In a mirage created as your last dolls fall
Into the pool of blood spilling from your fear
Creating six severed souls cursed to carry us home

When they cry, we reach for love despite our full hate
The world feels your rejection and rends itself apart
Your steel embrace left me immobile six feet under
While you violated the milk of human kindness
