Lyrics

Exam Success

Excuse me for being blunt, but I do not believe in the divine.
I have experienced too much tragedy to put my innocent faith in god.
However, [there is some meaning] to the fact that I am still alive.
I want to spend the rest of my life becoming living proof of that.
This Ema is a declaration of my resolve!

Katou Prefecture JatoRedacted for privacy reasons, woooooooof!
                              Yashima Chimi

Faith in the future, and an oath to the gods. The wish of an examinee.
With vestiges of a distant hometown, the prologue begins.


Death takes the form of Water…

Now…the water surface hums a calm lullaby…
Luring… numerous islands to lazy slumber…

Their vestiges

Are somehow nostalgic
Yet so very heartbreaking

The wind sweeps away a tear

Those are-
Memories of a blue day
The ground shook, trembled, shook and trembled

With angry roars above us
The ocean
soars up

And death approaches us with not a care in the world
Tearing down all that mankind has built up with ease

The ordinary days that I have loved
And my important <grandmother, parents, sisters and pet dog>[family]
Were all swallowed
Into the depths of the cold waters late spring…

I left my hometown and found myself under a distant sky
Cursing the world against a beautiful dusk

Why me…and only me?
I couldn’t find the meaning of being left alive…

Feeling throbs of guilt…
I lived in depravity…

However

-During a landslide caused by heavy rain
I once again lost <my distantly related foster parents>[my family]

At the end of it

My feelings of despair sparked a blazing flame
Shining brightly within me

I shall dedicate this life that I was given
To save many more
Though once lost
My reignited wish for tomorrow
Is now crammed into my backpack
And I run up-

“I see…so this is what people have come to call Yomotsu Hirasaka, known for breaking the will of many visitors. That explains the trending!”
