Lone sky

Your folded, pale wings are just a little tired from the overly blue sky
You don't have to force your smile for anyone else
It's all right to smile only for yourself

Loneliness continues to creep up on me
A candle alight on the inside
Such a gorgeous chandelier shouldn't be at a crowded party, like this one
Why should I bury it all in the emptiness of words that are lacking?
I don't know anymore

As long as we can swim freely in our dreams
We don't need the sky anymore
Even if I can't paint over everything
That happened up until yesterday
I'll still come out to meet you tomorrow

Inferiority complexes and reconciliations
Aren't things that will come true so easily
The mirror that remains
At the top of self-consciousness reflects flower petals
It looks like my voice is strained
From trying to cry out with an impure love
It's irritating

In these changing times, wounds will soon turn into scars
Without waiting for that to happen
You're so beautiful, and so fleeting...

Prayers shiver in the sun
Like traces of down that have come loose
It's all right to not think about loving someone
As being too much for you right now

Sometimes this world is a little bit too dazzling
To walk looking upward in
When you cast your eyes down
As though sinking, the dry ground slurps up your tears

Why do we feel so alone anytime?
You don't have to take on everything
Why do we feel so alone anytime?
Just putting up with it isn't courage
