alive
喜多村英梨 Lyrics

I must decide whether to go
I am torn between leaving and staying

(Or stay, I want you to stay with me)
I want you to stay with me and not leave

I want to get back together
I want us to reconcile and be together again

(Don't say "My mind will never change")
Please do not say that you will never change your mind

I still can not forget you
I am still unable to forget about you

I didn't know how to shorten
I didn't know how to reduce the distance between us

So I pretended not to notice
I ignored your inconsistently reacting behavior

The word "goodbye"
Your goodbye cut through the silence

Without a doubt, stopped my heart
Your words stopped my heart from beating

I miss you, but we can't meet
I long to see you, but we can't be together

I can only embrace fading warmth
All I can do is hold onto the warmth that's slowly disappearing

I'd rather forget everything
Instead, I wish I could just forget it all

I thought doubt was allowed
I used to think that doubting was accepted

So I thought your tears were just a small fight
I thought your tears were caused by a minor disagreement

I yearned for the impossible
I desired something that I knew I couldn't have

The more I loved you, the more precious you became
You became more precious to me the more I loved you

Heartbroken, I want to go back
I am heartbroken and want to go back in time

I remember that smile from when we first met
I can't forget the smile you gave me when we first met

If there's no other way but to move forward
If the only option is to move forward

I'd rather just stand still with our memories
I'd rather just stay still with our memories

We believed that even when the world ends
We believed that we'd still be together even if the world ended

Our dream that crumbled into pieces
Our shattered dream

I want to pick up the pieces again
I want to put our dream back together again
