Actually... I've never beloged to anyone....


Ya no soy tuya. Ya no soy mía. No soy de nadie.
En realidad… nunca fui de nadie.
Ya no creo en palabras. Por mucho que se puedan cargar de significado, a mis oídos comienzan a sonar completamente vacías.
Cada sonrisa que ofrezco, esconde un grito desesperado de desesperanza, por que creo que estoy perdiendo la fe en las personas. Creo que nadie imagina lo mucho que me duele sonreírme para decirme que todo está bien, nada es incurable, todo va a pasar. No tienen idea de lo mucho que me cuesta sonreírles.
No pueden ver que mi actuación está empezando a fallar.
¿Cuánto más… aguantaré…antes de terminar de romperme por completo?...
¿Cuánto tiempo puede soportar… una persona… antes de caerse de rodillas al suelo… y dejar salir… la furia… el enojo… el llanto?... ¿Cuánto tiempo más… se puede esconder?...

I’m no longer yours. No longer mine. I don’t belong to anyone.
Actually... I've never beloged to anyone.

I don’t believe in words anymore. No matter how much meaning they have, they’re starting to sound completely empty to my ears.
Each smile a give away, hides screams of dispair, because I think I’m losing my faith in people. I think... no one even imagines how much it hurts smile at myself to tell me that everything it’s fine, that nothing is incurable, everything will pass. They have no idea how much it cost me to smile at them.
They can’t see that my acting is failing.
How much more... can I hold on...before I end up falling apart completely?
How much time can someone...bear... before falling down on her knees.. And let the fury... the anger... the crying...out?... How much longer... can you hide it?

I’ve completely forgotten how long I’ve been in this place...


Itsu kara kono basho de
Naite ita no ka
Wasurete shimatte
Namida no riyuu sae
Karete shimau made
Hitori de kakurete itai no
[I’ve completely forgotten how long
I’ve been in this place crying
I want to stay hidden away until
even the reason for my tears dries up]

Kaze ga yobukedo
Kotae wa nakute
Sora wa kanashiku hitori kiri
Aishita koto mo
Suna no morosa ni
Kiete
[Though the wind calls out to me
I have no answer to give it
The sky is sorrowful as all alone
the things I loved
disappear into the brittleness
of the sand]

Mou anata ga doko ni mo mienai
Kumo wa tabi o sasou kedo
Itsuka hitori de tobitatsu toki made
Watashi wa sora o shitsu kushite
Nemuru iso shi gi
[No longer can I see you
Though the wind invites me out on a journey
Until the day I fly away alone
I will lose the sky,
a slumbering Sandpiper]

Kokyou e tsuzuku aoi kaze o tada
Shinjite ita no yo
Shiawase no michishirube midori no shima e
Anata no tsubasa o mitsumete
[I only ever believed in the blue wind that continued on
to my home town
I gaze at your wings, a guide of happiness
to that green island]

Jiyuu ni nareba
Michi o shitsu kushita
Sekai wa kanashii hodo hiroku
Umi yori takaku
Ten yori hikuku
Iku wa
[When I became free
I lost my way
The world is so wide it’s lonely
I will go
higher than the seas
lower than the heavens]

Mou anata ni kizutsuku koto mo nai
Yagate tozasa reru soukyuu
Kaeru basho sae mienaku narukedo
Watashi wa sora o wasurete
Aruki hajimeru
[No longer is there anything that can hurt you
Soon I will close away the blue sky
Though I can’t even see the place I’m returning home to
I’ll forget about the sky
and begin to walk]

You turn such a sad scenery as this into light...


Atatakana kaze no naka de
Dareka ga yonderu
Kurayami wo oshimu youni
Yoake ga hajimaru
[Within the warm breeze
Somebody is calling
As if regretting the darkness
Daybreak begins]

Ashita wa kitto
Kireina sora ni
Gin iro no niji ga kakaru deshou
[Tomorrow will surely bring
a silver rainbow
over the beautiful sky]

Konna ni kanashii keshiki wo
Kimi ga hikari ni kaete yuku
Chiisa na namida no tsubu sae
Houseki no you ni ochiteku
Mirai no naka e
[You turn such a sad scenery as this
into light
Even a teardrop
falls like a jewel
Towards the future]

Kokoro ni wa himitsu ga aru
Soredemo furetakute
Fure aeba kowarete yuku
Tamerai wa rasen no naka e
[You have a secret in your heart
Even so, I want to touch it
If we touch each other we will break
Hesitation leads to within a spiral]

Hashi wo watatta kawa no mukou made
Ashita wa kitto......
Mahiru no naka de
Haru wa amaku fukaku kaoru no deshou
Yume kara samete
Hito wa nani wo sagasu no
[Until we cross the bridge to the other side of the lake
Tomorrow will surely…
bring the sweet and deep scents of Spring
within the midday
What do people search for
when they awaken from a dream?]

Konna ni akarui sekai e
Kimi ga watashi wo tsurete yuku
Mabushii sa ni mada tachisukumu
Senaka wo sotto dakishimeru
[You take me to a world
as bright as this
I am still cowering from the radiance
You gently hug my back]

Shinjiru koto no hakana sa wo
Kimi ga hikari ni kae te yuku
Mezameta asa ni wa namida ga
Houseki no you ni ochiteku
Mirai no naka e
[You turn the fragileness of the things I believe in
into light
The tears in the morning I awake
fall like jewels
Towards the future]

You're always protecting yourself... Come here with me...


You let go of my hand
You say you have important things to do
In search of something

Knocking in a faint sound


The pain is burning your senses
You're getting colder

Oh, believe in me
Oh believe in me
The magic you can create
If you only knew
You're forgetting me
Forgetting how to dream

Remember back then
When we played on the dandelion hill
Till the sunset
We didn't need anything else

You're always protecting yourself
Come here with me

Oh, believe in me Oh believe in me
Do you ever feel this quietness inside?
That is where you'll find me
Nothing can erase me

If You Only Knew - OLIVIA

I feel you pull me under...

It is telling me that
I can not escape
It is telling me that
I can not forget
Just like a broken record, repeating it to me
You're getting my attention
It makes me weary

Oh you're so strong
You get stronger when I,
Stronger when I belive you

Cut me free
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free
Cut me free -memorizing monster

It is telling me that
I am gonna choke
It is telling me that
I am strange
Just like a broken record, repeating it to me
Comparing always comparing
I can't take it

You live off my compassion
I am the one
That keeps you alive
I feel you pull me under
Fall into your trap
Now you're taking control of me

Cut me free 
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free 
Cut me free -memorizing monster

When you fall asleep
The ropes come undone
I feel the wind hit my face
If only I can be here all the time

Cut me free
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free 
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free 
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free
Cut me free -memorizing monster
Cut me free...Cut me free...

Echoes through the twilight sky
With proof that I’m alive carved into me
I can see beyond a rainbow]

Cloudy world, light shines into it

[I’ll take my doubts and my wounds and everything
And fly, limitlessly
Nothing can get in my way

Begin to change?]

Those days I dreamed of on that distant spring day... Disappear into the sky


Sakura hirahira mai orite ochite
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Kimi to haru ni negai shi ano yume wa
Ima mo miete iru yo sakura mai chiru
[The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter]

Densha kara mieta no wa
Itsuka no omokage
Futari de kayotta haru no oohashi
Sotsugyou no toki ga kite
Kimi wa machi wo deta
Iroduku kawabe ni ano hi wo sagasu no
[From the train I could see
The traces of one day

The big bridge we crossed together

Graduation time came
And you left town
On the colourful riverbank, I search for that day]

Sorezore no michi wo erabi
Futari wa haru wo oeta
Saki hokoru mirai wa
Atashi wo aserasete
Odakyuusen no mado ni
Kotoshi mo sakura ga utsuru
Kimi no koe ga kono mune ni
Kikoete kuru yo
[We went our separate ways
And brought our spring to an end
My future is in full bloom
But it fills me with panic
This year, once again, the cherry blossoms are reflected
In the window of the Odakyuu train
In my heart
I hear your voice]

Sakura hirahira mai orite ochite
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Kimi to haru ni negai shi ano yume wa
Ima mo miete iru yo sakura mai chiru
[The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter]

Kaki kaketa tegami ni wa
“Genki de iru yo” to
Chiisa na uso wa misuka sareru ne
Meguri yuku kono machi mo
Haru wo ukeirete
Kotoshi moa no hana ga tsubomi wo hiraku
[The start of my letter to you
Says “I’m doing OK”
You’ll see through that little lie, won’t you?
Even the town going past
Is taking in the spring
The flowers are opening their buds again this year]

Kimi ga inai hibi wo koete
Atashi mo otona ni natteiku
Kouyatte subete wasurete iku no ka na
“Hontou ni suki dattanda”
Sakura ni te wo nobasu
Kono omoi ga ima haru ni tsutsumarete iku yo
[I’ll get through these days without you
And I, too, will grow up
Will I forget everything?
“I really loved you”
I hold out my hands to the cherry blossoms
Now my love is wrapped in the spring]

Sakura hirahira mai orite ochite
Yureru omoi no take wo daki yoseta
Kimi ga kureshi tsuyoki ano kotoba wa
Ima mo mune ni nokoru sakura mai yuku
[The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, the strong words you gave me
Remain in my heart; the cherry blossoms dance]

Sakura hirahira mai orite ochite
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Tooki haru ni yumemi shi ano hibi wa
Sora ni kiete iku yo
[The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Those days I dreamed of on that distant spring day
Disappear into the sky]

Sakura hirahira mai orite ochite
Haru no sono mukou he to aruki dasu
Kimi to haru ni chikai shi kono yume wo tsuyoku
Mune ni daite sakura mai chiru
[The cherry blossoms fall, fluttering down
And I walk out into the spring
I clutch the dream I promised you that spring
Tightly to my chest; the cherry blossoms dance]

Sakura - Ikimonogakari

30/7/12

Ever since the day we died, well... I’ve got nothing left to lose


I was only 19, you were 29
It’s just 10 years, but it's such a long time
In a heartbeat, I would do it all again

Late night sex, smokin’ cigarettes
I try real hard but I can’t forget
Now in a heartbeat, I would do it all again

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now
Now I’m lost somewhere

Lost between Elvis and suicide
Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose
After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose

Callin’ out sins just to pass the time
My life goes by in the blink of an eye
I know you want me
I was only lookin’ for a friend

And everything I was
And everything that I’ve become
Just falls into the end and

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now
Now I’m lost somewhere

Lost between Elvis and suicide
Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose
After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose

Now I see that you and me were never meant
Never meant to be now

Now I’m lost somewhere


Lost between Elvis and suicide
Ever since the day we died, well
I’ve got nothing left to lose
After Jesus and Rock N Roll
Couldn’t save my immoral soul, well
I’ve got nothing left
I’ve got nothing left to lose
