lyrics

"I... see the same dream over and over again.

A dream in which I'm waiting for a person for so long.
I'm waiting for someone by a waterfront in the dark.
Waiting and waiting, for many years.

But then, I realize someone who's been staring at me.
And I run, dragging my feet along,
to the person who I think is my mother
though I barely remember her.

...But then when I look carefully,
I realize it was just a reflection of myself
in the water.

And then I feel so lonely...
and I wake up." [1]

in the end
how did it come to this?

"In the end...
I'm all alone again" [2]

3,2,1
死ね [3]

now I seek the comfort in defeat
but it seems there's none left to find
so I've lost sleep; become less than weak
I've grown weary
weary of my mind

what's the point
since you're gone
what's the point
of these fucking songs

"I know a thing about contrition
cause I've got enough to spare" [4]
I've submitted to submission
cause I haven't got a prayer

God, are you listening?
what's the point I'm still missing?

what's the fucking point

oh love, where've you been?
you're nails deep in my skin
but in the end
I'm all alone again

when I spend my nights on the floor
it's all I think about anymore

now when I spend my nights on the floor
it's all I think about

lest the black drowns my eyes
how much longer do I have to suffer?
then the answer, screams back at me
お前はもう死んでいる [5]

I still feel you

and I still wait
for you to say...

oh love, where've you been?
you're nails deep in my skin
but in the end...

the night air is getting harder to breathe
and I miss the scent of your nicotine
the silence is deafening; it's everything
it's beckoning

I hope you found your peace

do you remember the dream you told me?

I hope you never feel alone again
I hope that dream's finally out of your head
