"You promised…"
No one has ever done so much for me…being so much for me.
"You promised…"
With your presence, you made me feel safe. With your smile, you filled me with warmth. With your touch, you granted me the happiness I have always longed.
"You promised…"
You took away all my pain, my sorrow, my uncertainty, everything that stained me…Standing always by my side…not saying a word…just giving me that smile, being my light.
"That you will come back…"
All these while, I looked only inwardly…ignoring your sadness. I never gave back, never treated you...the way that your eyes showed me.
"That you will come back…"
At my smallest gesture, you showed satisfaction…but I knew…that you have always longed for more. But, I feared…you are too pure…nothing should defile you.
"That you will come back…"
Being able to stay with you is the greatest honor any man could ever have…Being able to protect you is pleasure enough for me…however, it's still me…all about me…
"Let me shoulder the blame…"
You…my angel…have never wanted this way. You never wanted to be put on a pedestal. You wanted to feel normal, just like any other girl...love and be loved. That's what perhaps made you come in the first place.
"Let me shoulder the blame…"
In my insecurity, I didn't pay attention to you…never regarded you that way…But now, knowing you have changed me. So, can you…can you tell me…how to treat you?
"So before I go…"
But, I can not hear your voice anymore…I failed at my contentment of guarding you…How ironic…that the place you gave me that ring…and that sword that drew your tears…is the place I last see you, taken by those ignorant fools who branded you terrorist...
"So before I go…"
You are my sole strength…Nothing else but you can support this weight about to crash down…only you can relieve this pressure about to break loose…
"Let me erase all your pain…"
In this pain…the pain that's much less than yours…hourglasses break… grasses become clay… blue turns to red…
"Let me erase all your pain…"
Will you forgive me? Would you forgive me…for not being the person you can love anymore? For being a person responsible for this ruin...for going against your every desire...for taking those things which you treasure? For coming into your life?
"Me…"
When this blood-stained sword breaks…I just…hope that I can hear you again…see you again. And if you could ever allow me to embrace you...this time, I will properly treasure you…
"You promised that you will come back…Let me shoulder the blame…so before I go, let me erase all your pain…me...I love you, Lacus".
