Ikiteru Hikikatari
The Peggies
Living in Solitude
When I was born, I was handed over
Without understanding how to use this sword
I raised it and hurt myself
I never thought it would come to this
Trying to escape from sin
Blaming someone else, saying it's their fault
I became skilled at blaming others
Just living is wonderful
How much longer until I can say it's enough?
Meeting people who are not wonderful
Seeing scenes that are not wonderful
I have to believe in a me that is not wonderful
After knowing the horror of hurting others
I eventually stopped using the sword I cherished
Before I knew it, I lost the skill to protect myself
This time, I became full of wounds
Is hurting others the reward?
Self-inflicted punishment
I can't accept it, again
Just living is wonderful
How much longer until I can say it's enough?
For the sake of protecting a not wonderful me
I must not kill
How much longer can I live?
In the time left behind, how much can I learn to love myself?
I just want to smile, that's all I want to do
Just living is wonderful
Actually, even now, I can't say it
Why can't I say it?
Why am I so sad?
But it's not because I'm sad, while shedding tears
I wish to keep living like this
Just breathing in and out is not enough
I end up wanting even the pain
But I can't do it because you're here
That's why I keep living
