today i bring a very interesting and special song, which i probably have brought on this blog sometime ago.
Its a simple, touching song which was used as a movie theme song.
I've heard that MM's Kamei Eri even made a cover of this song because she liked it alot, and that it gave her strength.
it has this gentle touch that brings one to tears;
Please enjoy it, as much as i did. For my friends,
This is, Ikimonogakari - nakumonka.
“Maybe everybody is walking alone” Unable even to tell anyone about the loneliness they’re carrying Countless more people’s backs grow far away
I’ve grown up and at least gotten good at faking a smile But that’s not what I envisioned happening I thought this warmth would be stronger and more tender
Do I have the courage to take the hand that someone is holding out to me? This distance is trifling, it’s nothing, really But it’s always testing my tiny heart
I know that for every tear there’s a smile But in front of you, for some reason I pretend to be strong I still can’t be honest with you If only sad events and happy ones could be connected That’s how we gather up one heart after another
My heart is filled with a mixture of failures and betrayals and bad news Even if I pretend not to see them, I can still go on living But I don’t want to run away yet
The downpour, the driving rain drowns out another person’s voice And there you are, with a troubled expression Carrying the same loneliness as me
I don’t know the right answer, but, yeah, I don’t want to give up Because you’re here, because I’m here And our hearts want this
“Understanding each other means forgiving each other” Even confusion and anxiety are a part of us I’ll remember each tear we cry See, if I can smile with you again
I know that for every tear there’s a smile But I’ll tell you again and again in a hoarse voice I want you, only you, to know this If you cry with me, if you smile with me, yeah, I have a feeling I can be stronger That’s how we gather up one heart after another
