Japanese Sunset

(albüm: Winter Heartbreak II - 2021)

Listen to me doc, I'll do it with the grin
I write the song, then I'll commit seppuku with my pen
It's raining in Japan, the thunder cries and hums
The sky is red, I swear to God there's blood inside the sun, uh
I can't feel a thing, everything is numb
This blade is probably sharp enough to sever off my tongue
It's snowing here in Tokyo, autumn is a blizz
When I die, plant a cherry blossom on my grave, uh
If I had a single, a single little wish
I wouldn't spend it on expensive things and getting rich
If I had a single, a single little wish
I would just bring back all the people that I miss
I've lost a lot of loved ones, family and friends
Some I walked away from, 'cause the damage didn't end
A couple even tried to bite the hand that I'd extend
Or they told me that they love me, then they vanished once again, uh

I just wanna lay with you and hold you as I die
Underneath the sunset of the Hiroshima's sky
Lanterns in the water burning as they floating by
Tell you that I love you one last time, then say goodbye (Then say goodbye)
I just wanna lay with you and hold you as I die
Underneath the sunset of the red Kyoto's sky (Red Kyoto's sky)
Lanterns in the water burning as they washing fire
I never overdosed on drugs, but I overdosed on life

The worst year of my life was 2020, man for sure
My wife told me that she doesn't want me anymore
She rather go to court and have custody battles
And spend her life, always feeling like her husband's an asshole
I could have been defensive, been like "Jeez, what a bitch!"
But I clearly had a couple things I needed to fix
I didn't think that therapy would really help
But I was wrong, it's giving clarity and mental health
Then out of nowhere, Info died, I'm still in fucking shock!
Like really he's dead?
I was sitting at the funeral with Emily's head on my shoulder
Rest of the fucking tragic energy spread
Then my doctor committed suicide just a week later
Her son found her, he's just a teenager
I saw her like two days before
She told me that depression is something you can't ignore
No shit!
Then Georgia was murdered by her husband
I swear to God, I'm losing my grip, I'm fucking bugging
Then EMC died I didn't say goodbye or hug him
Why couldn't I just have another chance to say I love them
And then my father needed triple bypass
And I'm just at drowning my sorrows inside a wine glass
Then the country shut down and all of my tours were cancelled
Everything but pain is at a standstill

I just wanna lay with you and hold you as I got you (As I got you)
Underneath the sunset of the Hiroshima's sky
Lanterns in the water burning as they floating by
Tell you that I love you one last time, then say goodbye (Then say goodbye)
I just wanna lay with you and hold you as I die
Underneath the sunset of the red Kyoto's sky (Red Kyoto's sky)
Lanterns in the water burning as they washing fire
I never overdosed on drugs, but I overdosed on life
