Sometimes we
When we are lost
Commit sins.
And we gradually
Come to view them
As if we’re mere
onlookers.
As if nothing had happened
We lift our heads and
walk on.
But today we still remember
That the struggle never
ends.
Surely everyone
Did this to protect
love…
Really we
Are merely the specks
That make up everything.
If someday they
Are all connected
And come to form one
line…
Even if this floating
in the universe
Is merely a tiny cluster
How could we possibly
give up on tomorrow
Or be afraid of the
battle?
Surely everyone
Does this to protect
love.
For that…
As if nothing had happened
We lift our heads and
walk on
But today we still remember
That the battle is not
over yet…*
Surely everyone
Does this to protect
love.
Surely everyone
Just wants to believe
in something.
But
I wanted only to keep my love
Every
cardinal sin; every immoral deed
But
I was holding on for my love.**
*I made the same
bridge slightly different the second time, which it isn’t really. This is just to give a different angle on what the
Japanese could mean.
**This part is
sung in English. I think she means that despite how hard the struggle is to be good and pure, she wants to keep on trying
her hardest because of how much she loves this person.
