What is this thing called HITSUZEN?
Does it have something to do with fate?
Is it something that shapes our destinies?
I do not know the answer
When I thought we would meet again
I'd always assumed it would last forever
But why did it have to end like this?
I do not know the answer
Cradling you in my arms
Your blood mixing with my tears
I cry to the sky, "Why did this happen?"
I do not know the answer
Why did this happen to me—to us?
Just when you had revealed your love for me
Did your confession cloud our senses?
I do not know the answer
I feel you dying in my arms
I am powerless to save your soul
I can't help but wonder if this is a nightmare
I do not know the answer
I always struggled to do what's right
Hoping beyond hope I would return to you
And now I wonder if I really did change
I do not know the answer
Fate is harsh—destiny is cruel
You told me you were different—but how?
That your heart was not the same with theirs
I do not know the answer
They all loved someone else
But your heart had decided on me
But am I worthy of your attention?
I do not know the answer
I beg you for forgiveness, holding you tight to my chest
It hurts me more to let you go, and my tears still fall
I wonder if there will be a difference
I do not know the answer
I feel you dying in my arms
I am powerless to save your soul
I can't help but wonder if this is a nightmare
I do not know the answer
Your breathing is labored, your robes soiled with crimson
Your hair spread about your face like a crown
Is there nothing I can do to prevent this?
I do not know the answer
Feeling your heartbeat falter and weaken
I try to blink back blinding tears that burn
I never wanted to hurt you like this
I do not know the answer
Your blood is staining my guilty hands
I only wish I could turn back time
If it were possible would I atone for my sins?
I do not know the answer
Your sweet smile still lingers upon your face, your fingers still cling to my hands
And you part your lips and whisper in my ear
"Did you really think I wouldn't forgive you?"
I do not know the answer
And with a lingering sigh, your lifethread is severed
And I regret ever taking up my sword
Your love for me is not unrequited
Now, I know the answer...
