Now is night

Those who fear the night fight

To see tomorrow's light

So someday he becomes the knight

In his dream of happily flying kites

To finally free those souls in fright.


How foggy the road ahead is

How cold those restless nights are

How blind they want us to be

How heartbreaking it is to forget

The home that once held many fond memories

Our homeland, our sweet, cherished family

How struggling and tiring the path to save ourselves is


How quickly the world can fall apart without us knowing

How dangerous are men's greed and their ambitions

How one can fall infinitely into his own madness

In the dreams of his fulfilled unreasonable reasons

He savors the traps his victims fall in

And every day, prays for destructive asteroids


His madness blazes like the burning Sun

His heart flares and fuels harder

And forever

Rationalizing his unreasonable reasons, torturing his victims

To relive his absurdity each day of his life


Trying to win the game

For which he pays no cost

For the innumerable lives lost

The sorrowful tears, the hiding, the escape

The utmost fright and hearts squeezed alive

A savior of his own dream, a destroyer of people’s heart

A destroyer of the world

Asking for your mercy, so we’d be free..


How long the hard days go by

I will remember that

At night when I dance in my dreams, I will wish

To see tomorrow's peace comes to ask for my hand

So then we hold and make wonders...

But peace is a faraway yet possible dream

At any cost, we shall fight to have you.


For once, please fulfill our dreams

Give us mercy so we’d be free to breath

Away from this haunting chamber

Or we cease to dirt and dust from fear and starvation

With the reason YOU

Still, we will never let you win forever.


So free us or we free you~
