At the end of the walk, my shoe soles are dirty.
That way, our souls also be polished to shadow.
At that time I remembered it: the reason you didn't give up.
Though you should've saved, you were saved. Though you wanted to grasp, you were grasped.
On a wide trip, there'll be light. Unable to divide strength and weakness.
The opposing one foot forward at a time, will be your heroic part. As you were victorious.
For the sake of screaming, I will take a breath. In order to fly high, you had to take a long jump.
In order to laugh, we needed to cry. But I won't call it a defeat.
LONG HOPE PHILIA
The passing of time changed, the streets and friends too.
I know that almost everything is getting apart, this patience is a obvious feeling.
I'm serious about it myself. I will get apart of myself, carrying the burden of freakiness.
That's why together, we'll be sure to not change. But to return to ourselves.
In a great frustration there's light when there's a succes. There's no meaning to failures.
I was planning to laugh until the end, even if it's a trophy of this happy end.
I got to hope, that I didn't make any wounds. I got to wish that despair won't die.
Even so, I will stretch my hands out. That's why that scar will stand up.
LONG HOPE PHILIA
Giving up, wanting to sing, feeling depressed "broken" it's called.
But the things I lost, became a weapon to me. That became a blooming flower at the very bottom.
Giving up together, but now it's unripe constellation.
Considerably, we only need the things we have with us right now. Only that is enough for us.
For the great life, there's light. For the sake of living, I don't need a reason.
Even if you hang your head, stay on! From there on, it's called a start line.
Because the you of today laughed, I couldn't let the defeat stay useless.
The flower, blooming in reason on the very bottom together, will be many years of hope
LONG HOPE PHILIA
