Sakaki Yûko – It Was Me

(to the tune of Linkin Park –In The End)

It started on
The first day, I'm not sure when
I just keep thinking 'bout how it began
Must clear my mind and try to make sense
Of these messed up events

There they were
Shuya was on the mountain
Oki jumped out and I saw an axe swing
Watched them fall down to the foot of the hill
The sight gave me a chill

It seemed so clear
Shuya got up so he,
When falling through trees, must have killed Oki
I turned tail and fled, what else could I do?
But I saw him again

In the lighthouse
I thought that he had to die
To protect my friends but, it all went awry
Now all that's left of me, all I'll ever be
Is a murderer, so now

I have to jump, to take the fall
Cos it was me, I murdered everybody
I forgot that they were my friends
Yeah it was me, now I know what that means

Shuya, I'm so sorry
I don't think I can bear you to look at me
Please understand I'm just tryin' to explain,
If I can, to you why

I have to jump
In spite of the way they defended you
Acted like you were some kind of big hero
I was there when it seemed like you killed Oki
I was sure

You had to fall
But I killed Yuka by mistake
The others followed not long after in her wake
I hid while they blamed each other
And they died not knowing that

It was me
I thought that you had to die
To protect my friends but, it all went awry
Now all that's left of me, all I'll ever be
Is a murderer, so now

I have to jump, to take the fall
Cos it was me, I murdered everybody
I forgot that they were my friends
Yeah it was me, do you know what that means?

I might have trusted you
Had I known your point of view
But it's too late
There's only one thing I can do

My life is forfeit now
I can never be redeemed
But if I die
At least my friends can rest in peace

I had to jump, I took the fall
Cos it was me, I murdered everybody
I forgot that they were my friends
Yeah it was me, do you know what that means?
