Romaji

Two mirror images that we know about

Of our realms with the same layout

On different lanes, we came to be

Two different versions of me

Were we decreed to places so misaligned?

Or maybe God has made the wrong design?

We look the same but everything inside you is not what’s inside of me

Unease inside of me accrued

Over time, it grew so wide and crude

Papa and mama, I hold them dear with affection so true

However, what I’m feeling in my mind

Is I cannot fit in, I’m unaligned

So red goes back to red, and black to black

Return where they belong

Beyond that boundary line

Resounding shouts are intertwined

That devil is mercilessly howling, loud and malign

Version of me over there, a crybaby and a coward

I cannot pretend not to see what’s in plain sight

Forget all happy endings at a pace like this

So, I jump into the scene

Got a world to save

Can you pardon my rough side

And I am sure to get it done

Till the end, I will not shy

Going to no bad ending, nothing like that

I can be anywhere, and I will still be the one

So unique, unpaired in this whole world

Original you

If you could think of me proudly

I’d be so glad, I can’t get enough

On this side of that boundary line

Into the flow of days, and silent nights

Carefree, the angel, unconfined

Yawns in a life in black and white

Cannot overlook the vice that I noticed, will not disregard

Let’s trade off our ways when we’re returning home

I will embody hope and carry on

I’m saying goodbye, even though it’s sad to be all alone

Disclosing bravery near to my eye

My scar is reflecting my courage to combat unfairness and the like

Until that happy ending comes to be one day

I will keep fighting against the whole world, on and on

Though I can be so rough, you gave me so much love

“I am so grateful,” spoken with heart and soul

Going to no bad ending, nothing like that

I can be anywhere, and I will still be the one

And only, so unique, I’m the true source, original you

I’ll keep on living so proud and strong

Now, let’s get back to where we each belong

Signed off as I voiced, “goodbye” at seventeen
