Lower one's eyes

It was a simple prayer from the start, after all
Admiration gradually disappearing now
As the curtain’s raising up
We’ll leave this quiet meeting place and bid farewell.
Things I was about to say disappeared one after another
This uneasy feeling is weighing on me
I forced down my heart’s desires that I wanted to follow so I wouldn’t spit them out
They built up inside my chest, like dregs, and clouded me.
I can’t even bear to the accept the things I want to come to terms with
I’m holding onto something that’s too much for me to handle.
My hazy voice burns my parched throat to a crisp
I didn’t know what I was supposed to say
What I was feeling was set free far away
The same but different, somehow different
I didn't know how long to go for, or how far we can go—
If you’re not sure, then what are you thinking?
If we are to be separated, if we are to lose our way,
I’ll make sure we’ll be connected this time, no matter how many times it takes
If you will stay here with me, if I could just keep you from leaving
You could still be saved by this feeling no one else knows
Tranquility is exchanged for attrition
In actuality, they’re no different
Pleasure turns to lies
"Let’s get out of here before this place busts open"
Whispering the same, always the same, convenient wish.
I don’t know where to start, I don’t know what I’ve lost sight of
I’m not sure, so I don’t move from this spot.
If we grow tired, if there’s nothing more for us here,
I’ll make sure we escape this time, no matter how many times it takes
So that we may protect our hearts, so no one steals them away,
Let’s entrust them to each other. You can lean on me!
Crying with you, laughing with you, getting angry with you
Singing with you, dancing with you, talking with you
Whispering the same thing, always the same: “How much longer will this last?”
So I may never forget the air you carved out
I wonder how many times I’ll be made to remember it again
It’s only us
If we are to be separated, if we are to lose our way,
I’ll make sure we’ll be connected this time, no matter how many times it takes
If you will stay here with me, if I could just keep you from leaving
I’ll make sure this feeling no one else knows—everything I live for—
Is right.
