Break Away Tonight
Misuzu's pain had accumulated to a point in which she could hardly walk. Yesterday she had the next to last dream, not even leaving her room, leaving her mother figure Haruko panicking. Although Haruko left for work this morning, she had yet to return. The pain in Misuzu's back is becoming so severe that she no longer moves. Yukito, unbeknownst to Misuzu, had left for the next village thinking that is where the 'girl in the sky' is. These are her last thoughts as she is fading away.
Tonight Yukito didn't even come home. I wonder what was wrong. Maybe it had something to do with Tohno-san and Michiru-san? Tonight is a good night to look at stars. Then again, mom is not home either. Where is everyone? Why is it so lonely?
I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
Doesn't anyone care? Don't they feel my pain? I'm drowning and I can't breathe. The pain in my back is growing. Soon I may not be able to walk. Will anyone notice me then? Will I even live past this summer? No, I think not. I can feel it in the wind. Tonight.
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Maybe this time I will fly over the dinosaurs again, just like last night in the dream. The feeling of freedom that I get but the pain of where my wings should be still lingers. Should I have wings even? Maybe tonight I will see my other self…
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I'm getting tired again so easy as of late. Will this be my last dream? The pain is starting to be too much. Where are my wings? Why does it seem like the moon is mocking me tonight? Oh please, please let this end soon.
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
Huh a noise, too bad my eye lids are so heavy. Maybe mom is finally home? Oh how I wish to speak with her. Why won't my body listen to me? The pain is growing, even though I know it will fade soon. All's I want is mom. Please Kami, let me talk with her one more time.
And breakaway
Footsteps? Is that mom coming towards my room? Please Kami let me speak with her one more time. She won't know how much I love her. Please, just please once more. A warm hand touching my arm? Please don't let mom find out…
Breakaway
Tears? Please don't cry. I may not be able to hear or see you anymore but please… I'm no longer in pain now. I can see the beginning now, see who I was. No more tears. I know you can't hear me, but please tell Yukito thank you. Thank you for an unforgettable summer.
Breakaway
My wings, my white wings! I can fly to that girl in the sky now. Oh where did she go? Wait is that mom? I was right; she was the one next to me. Why is she crying so much though? Doesn't she know I'm in a better place? Mom, please forgive me…I have to leave now. I must find that girl and give her comfort…
