<span class="lyric-title">The <span class="lyric-sin">Breath</span> of <span class="lyric-sin">Atonement</span> and <Flame></span><br>
<br>
<span class="lyric-italic">The brighter the sun shines down,<br>
The darker the shadows it casts.<br>
What kind of epilogue will the interpretation of the Laurants bring about?<br></span>
<br>
I was never all that healthy as a child<br>
But I’ve always dreamed of being a mother of a big family<br>
<br>
So why wasn’t I able to protect <the child that was a blessing for me, yet a stroke of misfortune to others>[my first child]?<br>
The color of an unforgivable sin - <span class="lyric-life">a blue spring</span><br>
<br>
I will bear this <span class="lyric-sin">sin</span> my entire <span class="lyric-life">life</span><br>
And <span class="lyric-life">live</span> in repentance, abandoning all notions of <span class="lyric-life">lament</span><br>
<br>
        <div class="lyric-right">
The <span class="lyric-life">mornings</span> I dreamt of<br>
        </div>
<br>
        <div class="lyric-left">
And the sleepless <span class="lyric-death">nights</span><br>
        </div>
<br>
Are all your <span class="lyric-death">sto</span><span class="lyric-life">ries</span><br>
<br>
I want to remain as a mother<br>
That doesn’t <span class="lyric-curse">curse</span> her own <span class="lyric-fate">fate</span><br>
<br>
I thought that having a <span class="lyric-life">new</span> child<br>
Was an act of betrayal against my previous one<br>
But after many repeating <span class="lyric-life">mornings</span> and <span class="lyric-death">nights</span>...<br>
<br>
I realized that giving the [utmost <span class="lyric-light glow-happy">happiness</span>]<br>
To my new child<br>
Would be the truest form of atonement<br>
<br>
Perhaps my <span class="lyric-wish">wishes</span> on the <span class="lyric-wish">Ema</span> reached the gods, but my pregnancy was going miraculously well.<br>
<br>
        <div class="lyric-right">
“If the gods were to kill 1000 people, then you just need to give <span class="lyric-life">birth</span> to 1500!”<br>
Says my life’s partner with a laugh, a husband in all but name<br>
        </div>
<br>
        <div class="lyric-right">
“Since when did this become mythology!?”<br>
-Things were smooth sailing,<br>
And I found myself so <span class="lyric-light glow-happy">happy</span> that I could even make these jokes<br>
        </div>
<br>
After<br>
going<br>
straight<br>
down<br> 
this<br>
slope<br>
That I’ve tread on countless times<br>
It’s time to wage a war I cannot afford to lose<br>
Within these <span class="lyric-whitewalls">white walls</span><br>
<br>
Intermittent...pangs of pain...increased their frequency...<br>
As well as their intensity...I knew the time was near...<br>
<br>
Even if this were to last till this long <span class="lyric-death">night</span> turns to <span class="lyric-life">dawn</span><br>
There is no pain too much for a mother to bear<br>
<br>
All of this <span class="lyric-suffering">suffering</span> and all of this <span class="lyric-life">sadness</span><br>
The pain of overcoming thousands of <span class="lyric-death">nights</span><br>
Are all for this day<br>
<br>
My abdomen feels like it’s <span class="lyric-sin">burning</span><br>
And...with my...fading consciousness..<br>
I feel...your <span class="lyric-sin">breath</span>...<br>
<br>
<span class="lyric-spoken">“Good morning…Homura...”</span>

子供の頃から　あまり丈夫な方では　なかったけれど<br>
