Even now as I wander this endless path,
I think of you, my shining star.
Even now, as I fade away,
I wonder what I'll be like without you by my side...
Darling.
I'm falling forever, it seems,
And without you there to pull me up,
I fear I'll never rise again.
I'm never going to return to you again, it seems...
So hold me close to you one last time.
Come on, now, won't you grant me this wish?
Let me see your smiling face once more.
Come on, now, won't you stay by my side?
End it all with a moment of happiness.
As this sound slows, this echoing beat of my heart,
I wonder if you'll ever be able to let me go.
As this world around me is swallowed by darkness,
I beg of you, please set me free.
I'm afraid to see your falling tears,
So please, don't cry for me.
I don't want you to ever be sad,
So please, give me one last smile before I leave...
So brush my lips against yours, ever so softly...
Come on, now, won't you let me go at last?
To that place beyond your warm embrace?
Come on, now, harden your heart and move on,
End it all with this last gentle kiss.
Please, let me slip away,
To this place where I can find peace at last.
Please, find life once more,
I'll never be far from your heart.
Waiting for you, here, no matter how long,
I'll never let you be alone again.
Searching for you, I'll always be,
I'll find you once more, someday....
So let my breath fade away, and my eyes close for the last time.
Come on, now, don't be sad,
Let your smile light up your face.
Come on, now, stand up and walk onward,
I'll always only be a step ahead of you, after all...
Darling.
*title: 'Kissu no Shi' translates literally to 'Kiss of Death' or, when 'no' is used possessively, 'Death's Kiss'. I like japanese. Deal with it.
