Sweetest Heartbreak

HIKARI

You showed up like a glitch in my lonely night

A spark in the static that felt so right

Your smile hit my system like a sugar-coated curse

Now every beat inside my chest is getting worse

I knew from the beginning you were never mine to keep

But I still chase the daydreams that pulled me in too deep

You touched my heart like a secret I shouldn't know

A beautiful disaster wrapped in neon glow

I tried to run away but you've rewired all my fears

Now I'm addicted to the ghost of you whispering in my ears

You're the sweetest heartbreak I could never let go

A love that blooms in shadows where the wild things grow

I'm falling for the fantasy that will never be

A bittersweet poison sinking slowly in me

You're the wish I make at midnight knowing it won't come true

But I keep breaking just to feel a little closer to you

We met in the moment where the universe misfired

Two lonely hearts colliding with a fate we never hired

Your touch was a promise that you never meant to give

But I held it like a lifeline just to feel alive again

Now I'm dancing with the memory of something never real

A pretty little nightmare I can't help but want to feel

If loving you is hopeless then let me drown in it tonight

Let me keep the pieces of a love that's lost its light

I'll keep the tiny pieces where your shadow held me tight

I'll treasure every almost, every almost touch in sight

Even if the ending is just learning how to say goodbye

So here's to the story that we never got to write

To the love that flickered softly then vanished from the light

I'll hold the broken pieces like they're something I can use

Because losing you still feels better than a world without you

Song Introduction: Sweetest Heartbreak
A beautiful "glitch in life," drowning in neon lights.

Sparks like static electricity cutting through the silence of a lonely night. This electro-ballad depicts the fates of two people who met through a whimsical cosmic misfire, their paths destined never to truly cross. Like a "sugar-candy curse" eroding the system, it vividly portrays the trajectory of hearts drawn together by an irresistible force, even as they accelerate toward their end.

The highlight is the "sweet whisper voice" that melts into your ear, expressing a heartbreaking craving to be close to the other even at the cost of self-destruction. It captures midnight wishes that will never come true and a dependence on "your ghost" that continues to whisper in your ear. The breathy vocals allow this "bittersweet poison" to quietly permeate the listener's deep psyche.

"Even the pain of losing you is far better than a world without you." Holding the fragments of an unwritten story like a treasure, one throws themselves into a love that blooms in the shadows. Please experience this form of pure yet transgressive love, where even despair feels sweet.
