Surrender

Kazutoshi Sakurai

Burning my self on coffee is an indication
of how upset I am.
It's cause you go and spring 'goodbye' on me suddenly.

If I could just laugh it off,
how great a guy would you think I was.
but that's not me.

It's last minute but
I give it one more try,
but, I Surrender
the thick thunder clouds are gathering in my heart.

I believed love was just an illusion anyway,
back when I lived my life thinking I knew everything
I thought you foolish but,

I'm beaten ragged, here
just some sap,
no more, I Surrender
that the fusion I so despise could make me cry,
makes me despise myself, despise.

light up the darkness, the way you used to
without you I feel insecure
I used to think I could lose it all and not give a shit
I had myself convinced of it...

a merciless rain falls in my heart
the days we were together, wash by and disappear
like trash in the street. The End.
