Zetsubou Nation's Songbook. Extra.

It was dark, a red hue glowed and Seiko's guitar began, a rift i knew, and saith accompanying it, an orchestra behind me, and I take off.

Don't tell me not to cry, now
You have nothing to offer me
I run down the street, hearing you call after me in this
Dead Rain

I want to disappear
into tiny pieces
i want to transcend this space and time
to go back to the time when I still had your heart

Tomorrow maybe, I will be 'somewhat' close to terrible
but then, that day might come when I see you and feel nothing

embracing all of the scars you left me, wrap them up in a bubble
and set it to the sea to join the little mermaid

Don't call me anymore, that number you have is forbidden
You have nothing to say that will make the pain in my chest subside

I want to disappear, into tiny pieces, never see you again
I want to transcend this space and time, never hear you again
to go back to the when I never met you

Why did you have to cross me that day, my life was going just fine
Why did you have to burrow into the deepest part of me?
See phases I've never known existed, now you just left
and I will never feel that way again
never more, never more, never more

here on the roof, it's raining again
memories of us are clear
this very place, you loved me

if I could return, I'd take the naive little girl and give her a scare
tell her run as fast as you can.

Don't pretend you still know who i am
Dont call my name so casually
I never wanted any of this, that pitiful tone in the Dead Rain

I want to disappear into tiny pieces, never see you again
I want to transcend time and space, never hear you again
find a universe where you don't exist

But now here, I can still see you, in that distant place we called our own

Don't come after me
there's nothing you can do for me now
you've made it clear under the dead rain

I want to disappear, never see you again
I want to transcended time and space, never see you again
I can still see it clearly, the color of the rain as you ran after me on that day.//

Dearest Saturn.

There is that smile  I've waiting all day to meet you hold me close whisper in my ear you'd never let me go
y hear this jumping in joy to see the face of the person i love
i have to ask myself, "could this be real life?"

Recalling small details of the colors that make up your eyes brings me joy when I can see you today
Remembering the things you said to me last night, gives me warmth in the coldest of flights

Still I carry that ring you gave to me with much love
how jealous must all those girls be?
I wonder sometimes, what is it that you see in this lonely person
whose "eyes shine like fire,"you say?
I know I can sometimes be very crazy, you don't need to remind me
I know sometimes I talk to much am clumsy and drink still you carry home without a sigh.

Recalling a gesture of yours when you're mad, something to add to my collection of rarities
Remembering you whisper secrets behind walls of my mind while I sleep
Even though I know I might forget between dreams

The distance is nothing, the tie we spend apart i know surely well discover it again
the lost daze brings me a haze and
without knowing it you embrace me from behind

There is that smile Ive been waiting all day to meet,
you hold me close whisper in my ear like you'll never let me go
my heart is jumping to see the face of the person that I love,
I have to ask myself,"could this be real life?"


Like no one else, you know me very well, opening doors, only you have the key to.
"My only soul" you whisper and charm me, time is nothing compared to that person.

Once again, caught in traffic, late, "oh I'm sorry honey"
such trivial things, just a kiss, you light up

There is that smile of the person I've waited all of my life to meet
I hold you very close, I don't care who might be watching in jealousy
Saying good bye to my loneliness, I hold you close, knowing I'll never let you go
my heart is jumping to see the face of the person that I love,
I have to ask myself,"could this be real life?"
I have to make sure, you say "this is real life."

I swear to you, I'll never have an excuse to let those hazel eyes wander.

"Ready?"

I get asked many times, "are you in love?"
Love is a shapeless thing, and it's constantly changing, isn't it?
The moment you change your mind it ends everything
it's best to have a closed heart, isn't?

My heart feels like  exploding i cant believe is this reality?
is it real? perhaps  trick of illusion?
I want to be the best version of me i can be its hard something when
the world keeps reminding me where I come from

you take my hand through the rushing crowds flashes
I want to cross the finish line with you by my side,
you turn to me and ask "are you Ready?"

Recalling small cramped closet i called my home,
the bloody tiles remind me of rivers ill never swim
no I don't wanna die yet, let me show you just what I mean this anthem of my life

My heart feels like exploding, I can't believe what just happens
is i real, perhaps a trick of illusion,
the Goliath is down, the slingshot in my hand, i can hear the cheers and screams
but really, this world amazes me, knowing where I've come from

you take my hand through the rushing crowd keeps pouring in
an electric current gives me courage to face the darkness
I want to cross the finish line with you by my side
can I really lose? "are you Ready?"
"Yeah, I trust you."

//The Distance of Saturn.

When you think about it, there really is nothing wrong with the way you held me
that night you kissed me, yeah I remember it so well, who would remember it like me?
I want to tell you, even though you might not hear it instantly, I want to tell you
I never thought you'd leave.

I never thought the wind would carry me away
from all the things you said that snowy day
I never wanted not one bit of this
too many shadows follow


And still, you come even nearer to the edge
still you look down to the gallows of my breath
and still, you still look at me that way, as if we were
well as if I were 17 again.

mmm mm mm mmm mm mmm mmm mm mmmmm mmm
I want to follow where you go
I wanna be there when you're old and I wanna love you like you're supposed to be loved
I want to fly and want to run and want to navigate the stars with you.....

When you think about it, there really is nothing wrong with the way you talk
smooth and coyly like the midnight of my room, waiting in darkness to embrace the light of me
and all my fears they fall into the edge, they become nothing, nothing nothing,
 they become fragile memories of me, and you, and all those words you said to me, that snowy day
I never wanted any bit of this
too many shadow following behind, I see, I see them coming near, so near to you.

I never thought the wind would carry me away
Take care dear sun, broken, shattered by the darkness that you bring, here in my room.

I never thought the wind would carry you away
gone gone gone.


For Haruka .///Chara Amano.

// A Billion Starry Nights (here with you)

Though i look through a lens, I can't ever make out your corona clearly
like a star in the endless darkness, you light up my life
true im dissimulating only things I've learned from books and dead poets
but the day you came into my life like shine of Pleione, I swear you lit up my life.

Millions of miles between here and now, the sadness that cause a ripple in the heavens
Hoping forgiveness for the time I tired to hide my blue heart from you

A billion starry nights here with you,
the dream of my childhood come to life, you burn brightly
Navigating the distant coarseness of what I can feel scares me
a relief to look back and see my hand holding onto yours, certainly


Though I try to pretend everything's okay, I'm worried about resolve when I'm with you
The ticking clock is of no concern, if you want time I'll trick Kronos for that smile
tell me mars, have you been happy lately?

Billions of people walk and have walked here on this earth
None of them bothering to look up, at that brightly shinning reddish star
what dreams may come from my Mars?

A Billion starry nights, where are you right now?
like a dream, of my childish past, you come to life brightly, your love burning mine.
Will you Navigate this crazy horse head nebula with ,me? Your obscene scares me
With a look of relief I feel your hand holding mine, certainly

// Yeah, I wont let you go.
Those sparkling lights shine behind you, between us, a shard of glass
what can I do for you now , so far away, you sparkle?

Trying to tell myself "just walk away,"
you try to reach me but I just wont budge

What is this fear of having you beside me once again?
I cant understand when the pieces fall apart I just want to fall with them

When this tender melody reaches your ears, would you understand whats in my heart?
I know its all cliche but maybe love is cliche, and if it is then we are just expected to fall

Once again you catch my eye, but there's a million bodies between us
who shall we hurt, whom shall be displeased? Should I care? Would you mind?
Were  you always like that, staring at me?
thinking too much can be bad for my head.

Remembering those colorful sunsets, on well, sunset bvld,
when my hand on yours was in our nature.
The orange shades above us, not judgmental, the only place I still call home.

What is this fear of having you beside me once again?
I cant understand when the pieces fall apart I just want to fall with them

When this tender melody reaches your ears, would you understand whats in my heart?
I know its all cliche but maybe love is cliche, and if it is then we are just expected to fall

When this voice of mine reaches your ears, would you understand my constant silence?

//
// NEXUS.   "Slow down the crub's ahead," calling our swaying metal things
Yeah, it was one of those nights,
Yeah you used that tone
where you want to talk.

Rarest things the words you say
"How can I put it lightly?"
Yeah, I guess we borke up
Yeah you dropped me off, Why were you so cold?
Rarest heartbreaks, lined my tears as i recall it now.

"Cant we stop everything our hearts can feel?
and pretend it never happened?"
if I spoke then I wouldn't be able to breathe
breaking bones and burning inside I nodded, smiled, and wished you well
nodded, smiled, and wished you well..

In the hallway you spot me, asking about my health lately
The Nexus has restarted, friends once again but my heart just complains
Just where did the last year go?
Reflecting off your careless eyes, does love become nothing
when strings become cut, they can never become one again.

"Can't we go back, to when our hearts still felt the same?
and pretend this never happened?"
if you spoke now, maybe It'd make it  easier to breathe
breaking hopeless dreams inside, you nodded, smiled, and wished me well
nodded, smiled and wished me well

Walk away, Longingly, wishing you well...

//Yeah, he doesnt love you.

You know it well, that he doesn tlove you
stop denying it, he oesnt love it

Its been a while since I felt that
word hsttering words of sont talk to e gain
its been quite a shock, yeah I still it, the blood dripping from my chest
but I KNOW well that "he doesn't love " me
tursut me , I know it better than anynje


the world burns and turns everything to ash
my heart yearns, to break into a million pieces
but i kow very well every day
that he doesnt love me anymore

still these stupid thoughts repeat again, there's a chance, no
I know he doesn tlove me anymore.

Its been like this for a while
shutting out hthe sowlr,d acting like im okay
even though the fans may still love me, why am I strill daiing your number?
 The world burn and turns everythig to ash
my hearts yearn to break into a million piece
I kmnow very well every night
that he doesn't love me anymore
still these stupid thoughts repeat again, there's a chance, no!
I know he doesn't love me anymore.

I know he doesn't love me anymore...

// Young at heart.
You sigh, I know what's coming now
I know because I feel it too, a thing called love, will soon become stranged but
if love was meant to break so easily, why do I want to keep holding this hand?

You say we see eachother too little, you say I don;t know what you're thinking
stop it, my heart is breaking already, and I dont think I will be okay
I tell you its only a phjase, it happen to everyone, but you want to giv eup so early

what do we do? I wont let go of all we have built up till now tstill you want to let me go
what should we do? now its real you walk way fro memy world the light is going with you
if you go...

what will happen to the season in me called spring? well
if love was meant o be okay then well, I'll be okay as well right?

You say You want to explore other worls, you dont want to be tied down
if love was meant to mena nothng to you , why did you strng me on for so long?

What do we do? I dont want to let you walk away , just realize that you have me
what should we do? now its true that if you wal away fro m,my light is going with you
if you go...
what should I do? I fee it all the ripping of my indsides and blood is filling up my world
what should I go? I cant imagine walking through this daybreak without you here
but if you go... if you go...

Tell me, if ove was meant to be shared why do you push me away?
Well.. if your love was meant to break so easily....perhaps...this love is not meant for the careful me.

// I wish time would stand still, me like this, you like that."

I remembered not so long ago, I read a comment a friend made of me and of Haruka, she called him my Terry. I didn't understand it, until I asked Seiko, Seiko threw her entire collection of Candy Candy on my lap and I read them gradually as we toured in Hokkaido. I understood it then, that he was Terry, because he was just like him, his role in my life, but... did that make me Candy? Or Susannah? Because he stayed with Susannah? The reason I'm with Haruka now has nothing to do with him being guilty of me, what of? But, If I'm Candy, does that mean...that I'll lose him some day? Why didn't she run to Terry when she saw him on that stage? Why did it matter tht he had to stay with the girl who black mailed him into marrying her? Why? I do not understand it, if she really loved him she would have let him go, but i guess that's what Candy did, she let him go, because she loved him, because she felt guilty, because she felt her love reflected in another. the...

I met you that day, I lost my mind, I found my heart, and I could breathe again, calmly.

 I was never a fan of what people call ' soul mates .' In fact, I never believed the concept had any standing in the real world. It's a fantasy that people tell each other, like there really is one person curated for our every wish and want and need. I think we have a say in this world, not a soul mate, but a person, tangible and grounded, and on that ground we find that ours is even, not a mound or a hole around us, and we can walk together on that path. The souls we seek are like this, on the same path, and they are our chosen family. I think that's a stronger bond, family, I haven't had the best relationships with my own kin, but my friends and him ...I think I chose them as my family. I wasn't used to the type of attention Masake bestowed upon me, I wondered if it was my voice, people seemed to be captivated by it, I'm grateful for that, but is that what he was after? Perhaps it was my body that attracted him to me, I am on the heavier side of a medium ...

//he became the sun.

There were things about Los Angeles that I loved, living with crazy seiko who loved to paint on the brick wall and make instant foods was fun for me, Tomos constant sleeping waiting for his shift at the Hollywood cemetery was comforting I studied at work when t wasn't busy but I wasn't hitting my assignments and my sister was worried. The thing I didn't like about Los Angeles though was that Harris didnt live here he was still living in long beach because his college was full on dorms, so he took the metro here every day sometimes his car he had a very nice Volvo, I wonder if he has money not because I want it, but because I feel embarrassed and somehow below people with money but unlike those girls that made me feel awful about myself and my household income Haruka has never given me that vibe, I wonder what it is and does it have to do with the tightening on my chest when I think about him, I feel as I'm passing a big piece of bread that is stuck inside my throat and...
