Kyuzo's Hidden Gratitude
I've made mistakes in my life
Yes, I admit it.
I refuse to break again,
Like I did when I was young,
The horizon holds nothing for me
Any longer.
I learned this the hard way…
.
Because of you
My blades sing once more.
Because of you
That sense of honor within me reawakened
Because of you
I actually learned to trust a little bit, something I could not do long ago
Because of you
I am not afraid.
,
Nearly losing my wits
In the insanity of Ukyo's foolish antics
I wonder how I managed to survive.
I refuse to show weakness
So I hide behind a screen of silence.
I guard my heart with ice,
Praying no one shall discover the true me.
Now I feel I have become two people…
Because of you
My blades sing once more.
Because of you
That sense of honor within me reawakened
Because of you
I actually learned to trust a little bit, something I could not do long ago
Because of you
I am not afraid.
vv
I've watched death and caused it.
I've heard those in pain,
How they wept.
I should have known back then
To shelter myself, close off the world of emotions.
The realization of hurt;
Now I cry when no one sees
Damn the life I've led…
' vv '
Because of you
My blades sing once more.
Because of you
That sense of honor within me reawakened
Because of you
The life I once lost, I regained
Because of you
I have risen from the abyss
Because of you
My life is no longer empty
Because of you
I am no longer afraid.
'vv'
Because of you.
