In a void, and on the brink of fading, You filled hope to a flower that is wilting. Thy eyes radiate In a world where everything's filled with dusk like an endless chasm. In a maze where path is unending, You showed the way with a smile, I never thought I would be the cause of fading. I took the spotlight, never noticing, How it drained your light. The flower that almost wilted-- that one flower, that you, brought back to life, That was I. How I wish I could give it back to you-- How I wish, that as I laid my gaze upon you, How I wish, that you had never gazed back.

As I lay my gaze upon thee
In a void, and on the brink of fading, You filled hope to a flower that is wilting. Thy eyes radiate In a world where everything's filled with dusk like an endless chasm. In a maze where path is unending, You showed the way with a smile, I never thought I would be the cause of fading. I took the spotlight, never noticing, How it drained your light. The flower that almost wilted-- that one flower, that you, brought back to life, That was I. How I wish I could give it back to you-- How I wish, that as I laid my gaze upon you, How I wish, that you had never gazed back.
