I stand alone to say to you "don't worry, I'm sure of you"
I stand alone to say to you "don't worry, you may trust me"
I stand alone to say "I can't stand without you"

(To You Like Water Wrapped in a Medical Wafer)

Why are you always on the verge of a breakdown?
Looking at you makes me wanna cry.
You're a flower shaking in my heart.
Always here for me.

Tell me, to what extent are people "alone"?
even though there are a disgustingly large number of people out there,
I've kept looking for you, who I can be "together" with.

if there are times we can't walk, let's take a rest.
and let the wind through the plains blow on us,
we can stay here on days we don't do anything in particular,
and take back our lost selves.

Did you shoulder the burden of such a great weight all by yourself?
were you always standing with legs that look like they might give out at any minute?
Come on, I wanna know more about you.
I want to hold you strongly.
I'll be by your side whenever you need me.

You don't have to be afraid.
Everyone has "a past" and "mistakes" in their heart.

I didn't believe in people,
Betrayed them before they could betray me.
but everytime I did, what I lost was my own heart.

but is true strength to believe in myself who can believe in you...?

I stand alone to say to you, "don't worry, I'm sure of you."
I stand alone to say to you, "don't worry, you may trust me"
I stand alone to say to you, "I can't stand without you"

I love you, imperfect smile and all
