生きているのはボクだけなんだろ？Ikiteiru no wa BOKU Dake Nandaro?I’m the Only One That’s Alive, Right? is the fifth song of Ema ni Negai wo! (Prologue Edition) a listener may encounter. It is played after either 贖罪と《焔》の息吹Shokuzai to 《Homura》 no IbukiThe Breath of Atonement and <Flame> or 暗闇を照らすヒカリKurayami o Terasu HIKARILight that Shines Upon Darkness, based on whether the Left or Right choice was selected after 夜の因業が見せた夢Yoru no Karma ga Miseta YumeDreams Brought by the Night’s Karma, respectively. The total probability of encountering the song is about 17%. The song has four equally probable intro videos that differ in the voice that says the first line in the lyrics, "ある少年の記憶Aru shounen no kiokuA certain boy's memories". Once the song finishes, the listener is shown an outro video, determined by both the route they are on (the result of the first choice) and what they chose for the second choice. If for the first choice the Left option was chosen, 恋は果てまで止まらないKoi wa Hate Made TomaranaiLove Won't Stop Till the End will play next. If the Right option was chosen, then 西風のように駆け抜けろッ！Nishikaze no You ni Kakenukero!!Blaze Past like the West Wind! will play.
Lyrics
A certain boy's memories
I’m the only one that’s alive, right?
It is a ruin of emptiness,
The memories of a boy.
What kind of questions will this episode ask of life?
-I have never..even once...
Wanted to “live”...
But it’s not like...
I wanted to “die” either...
But I guess...I can’t do anything about being born...
So I might as well live on cheerfully-
-I couldn’t believe
In the existence of such a thing called [love]...
An adult male’s body is made up of <approximately 60%> water
And if <0.xxx%> of impurities within that is enough to blow [love] away,
Then it’s nothing but a fantasy-
So like, cats can land safely no matter how high they jump from, right!?
Then it’s time to experiment!
How many floors does it take for a cat to go straight to heaven?!
How high can we raise the temperature?
How long can you hold your breath?
Can you stay conscious while someone beats you with a bat!?
Surely I must be the only living being that actually experiences pain when beaten!
How else can you explain all these terrible acts!?
Hey,
Stop pretending to be in pain.
Stop pretending to be scared.
Stop pretending to have fun or to love.
You’re all just <marionettes> playing your roles.
Stop acting like you have a heart.
I’m the only one that’s alive, right?
Hey...
Please just tell me the truth...?
