Each time the brightest star passed by
I folded one of my fingers
Now all I see before me
Is two lightly clenched fists
Looking back, I have only one thought
When the time passes midnight, let me count the songs
That played when those times met their end
By these hands, they made a new beginning to unfold.
Destiny and time, incompatible
Total desperation, the breath of tomorrow
The petals merely sway as they fall to the ground, remaining there
I’m seeking their scent
I believed I’d held on to my true intent
While penning a poem of salvation
Made as if spinning a thread
Our bonds remain here, smiling
But perhaps a song of pasts we’ve loved thus far
Can transcend this moment and become the future
Destiny and time, incompatible
Total desperation, the breath of tomorrow
Please give me courage, before I know of love
I want you to be there, before I close my eyes, okay?
Destiny and time, incompatible
Total desperation, the breath of tomorrow
