Chara

(アルバム： Smoke & Mirrors - 2017)

[Act I. "Broken Road"]

I've walked a hundred miles down a broken road
And in my mind I carry such a heavy load
The voices in my head I think are not my own
But I will reap the seeds that my hands have sown

My thoughts are dark and red and I am stained inside
If I stop now there'd be nowhere for me to hide
From the sins I feel crawling on my back
You can't save a soul that you lack

It's too late now
I'm too far gone
I've lost too many chances
And now I feel myself changing

I feel myself changing
With every fight I am changing
It's easier when you're changing
Don't stop me now, I am changing
With every save, I am changing
Your every move keeps me changing
Why don't you move? I am changing
I'll strike you too, I am changing
I am changing

[Act II. "Sympathy"]

When you kill me again, and again, and again, and again
Don't expect me to shed any tears in the end
I am only human, after all

I don't have very far to fall until I disconnect
For eternity, that's me, what do you see?
It's done, and nobody is free

Because the blood that we spilled can never be undone
I'd be lying if I said that I didn't have fun
When I saw you fall down on the ground
After what you've done to me don't expect any sympathy

No more friends and no more foes
No more monsters, no one to oppose me
I can finally be free

From the burden of despair, the burden to care
For every single person that I've met down there
It's done, it's over and I've won

Because the blood that we spilled can never be undone
I'd be lying if I said that I didn't have fun
When I saw you fall down on the ground
After what you've done to me don't expect any sympathy

You were acting out of self preservation
But you didn't have enough determination
Now the world resets to set the evil free
You get no mercy from me

Because the blood that we spilled can never be undone
I'd be lying if I said that I didn't have fun
When I saw you fall down on the ground
After what you've done to me don't expect any sympathy

You were acting out of self preservation
But you didn't have enough determination
Now the world resets to set the evil free
(No mercy from me)

[Act III. "Erased"]

It's finally done, I lay down my knife
He fought so hard and laid down his life
He was alone and now so am I
Left with the memory of a boy afraid to die

What have I done? Where is my home?
Were these deeds I've done truly my own?
I was so blind but now I clearly see
I only have one choice and it's in front of me

Erase the guilt, erase the blame
Erase what we built and erase this game
Erase the past and erase my name
You were looking for a friend but nobody came
