Words: Mikami Chisako
Music: Mikami Chisako

no matter how I wish, I'm powerless
the clear blue autumn sky so far away
I get sad brooding over things,
and laugh that "somethings don't come true"

-if I could have just one wish come true-
But then I noticed, deep in my heart there just wasn't anything I
wanted.

If at least I can sing, and I'm still allowed to live,
I'll shave away then burn myself for my own sake,
If for at least "a moment" I'll resound in someone's heart.
"Was it OK for me to be born to this world...?"

If we can understand that we'll all die one day, I wonder if
we wouldn't hate each other so much?
I just want to be pure, and I can't so I hate myself sometimes.

There is "something" missing from my heart, so unconsciously
I hurt people.
But if I'm given this "something" that I can mark deeply
on other people's hearts.

I'm going to smash myself to bits with this body,
supposing that I've enough time left,
The smell of the wind on this day, people going along the street
I felt that I had somehow been saved a little just by
assuring myself of these ordinary things.

God gave me this "voice"
and these eyes to see the pretty flowers
and this heart that feels what "pretty" is
and what did I give god in return?

I sing the joy of living using this body given to me by god,
that skies blueness, the suns warmth
the light cast down through the shaking leaves of the trees

If I'm going to someday disappear,
I'll hold the dearness of "having lived",
the sadness and even the pain.
I am here now.
I feel it... I guess?
If only someone wanted me, as tiny as I am
I'd be fine with just that.
I'm going to meet you.
