LN
Original
SIDE-BY-SIDE

1.It begins again
2.A grim tragedy looms—suddenly
3.Is this divine punishment? Déjà vu? A bias?
4.Those upturned eyes peeking at me—your body—my rising body heat5.
6.In a hell that feels like heaven
7.To avoid being controlled, I trace back my memories and expose them
8.Sharpen my claws, purr when I feel like being spoiled
9.I want to hold you close—
10.And shatter this unfillable contradiction11.
12.Catastrophic infection—Pandemic
13.Endless suffering—Devastating
14.Bunny kick, catnip, matatabi15.

16.Dancing through painful, dark nights—in the cold and terrifying midnight
17.Breaking things and hiding them—how much have I endured?
18.It feels like heaven, yet it feels like hell19.
20.I’ve been waiting for this moment
21.So I won’t let it slip away
22.Instead of relying on someone else, I’ll trust myself
23.Sketch the future, learn from the past, become aware of the present, and search
24.There’s no turning back—I won’t stop—this path ahead25.
26.To avoid being controlled, I trace back my memories and expose them
27.Sharpen my claws, purr when I feel like being spoiled
28.I want to hold you close—
29.And shatter this unfillable contradiction30.
31.Don’t lament—just hold me tight
