lyrics

Fuck off! Don't talk like we were friends. You weren't there when I needed you back then. I'd rather hang myself with my halo before you lecture me.

It’s noon, I try to write a song. But they all come out wrong. I’m where I don’t belong. I will shut myself in my private hell. I’ll say this as I choke myself:

I will choose to be alone. And when you find me, I'll say I am never going back home. I won't let you run my life. Die with your platitudes, don't say to me that it'll be alright. And while you lament your loss, they all say, "how could we let her go?" Don't kid yourself, you were never there for me.

And when I die and wither, will they call my name or will you say I got what I deserved? A life doomed from the start? When I stormed out of heaven, I heard a crack. I became human, I became mortal; I saw the sky break down.

I will choose to be alone. And when you find me, I'll say I am never going back home. I won't let you run my life. Die with your platitudes, don't say to me that it'll be alright. I'll be laughing as you watch. I'll be a star like you said I’d be. If that means being human, so be it. Try me! I will choose to be alone. I am never going back home.

“...소위 팝컬쳐라 불리는 게 있다. 예술이라 하기엔 좀 그렇긴 한데 하여튼 사람의 마음을 뒤흔드는 점에 간해서는 어정쩡한 파인 아트보다 힘이 세기도 하는 놈이다.” - 카도노 코우헤이, '부기팝' 작가 ... more
