I want to be selfish,
so that I can finally satisfy myself
from the prolonged longing
inside my lonesome heart.

I want to seize you,
so I can finally feel
the happiness i dreamt of
from fourteen years ago.

I want to own you,
so that I will finally know
the magic that your touch can do.

I want you all by myself
because I love you with all my heart.

Yet, at the same time...
all the while,
I thought, I figured
what I really want.

I want to be selfless,
so that I can finally know
what it is like
to sacrifice.

I want to let go of you
so that I can finally
let you out
to breath.

I want to forget you
so I can finally feel free
of the ache from fourteen years ago.

I want you to be free,
because I love you with all that I've got!
