Lyrics & Music by Yasunori Hayashi
As if carried by the wind, I've come this far away from you
Having to love me in my sins and crimes is not something easily laughed at
Maria...was I wrong?
But...people always lie
Maria...Maria...just as you said
Everyone has to live as if they're pure, don't they
In this shattered, hostile world...you were the only one kind enough to love me
When there's no one left at the end of the world, I'll touch your shoulder at the end, so gently kiss me
I miss you so much...Because I love you......
I miss you so much...Because I love you.....
The misty sky is full of the clouds of 'lies' and 'doubt', so who made this world, anyway?
From feeling nothing but the sadness of living all over again, I've grown a little tired of going on
I didn't mean to hurt anyone, or anything...
Even now...do you still begrudge me?
It's so terrible...feeling loneliness this strongly
Hey, Maria...hold me one more time
Even if we say this transient world is nowhere at all
The only truth in it is the "love" I send to you
If we say that making "progress" in "life" is "destiny"
The path I walk to death leads straight to you
Now, I'm bound to my way to you
Let's sing my truth...so that it makes its way to you
Let's sing with the voice of truth...in this broken world
Maria...do you still despise me?
As for me...would it have been better even if I were never born at all?
Maria...Maria...Maria...does the person I am now
Still have the ability to love you?
Even if we say this transient world is nowhere at all
The only truth in it is the "love" I send to you
If we say that making "progress" in "life" is "destiny"
When I close these eyes on this life for the last time
Kiss me gently
Let's sing my truth...so that it makes its way to you
Let's sing with the voice of truth...in this broken world
In this shattered, hostile world...you were the only one kind enough to love me
When there's no one left at the end of the world, I'll touch your shoulder at the end, so gently kiss me
The wind has quietly died away...now, I'm coming to meet you...
