Lyric

The sun sets on a rusted mask

The wind carries an old, forgotten song

No one knows the name of that shadow

But I still remember it, all along

The scent of sunset, trembling fingers

I still want to protect someone

The old, tall mask of yours

You were my hero

Your scarred back shone brighter than the world

Strength is kindness, you taught me so

Your courage lit the way

Every breath, another season passes

Voices and dreams fade in the haze

But your eyes still flickered like flames

Burning bright through the days

“Listen… A hero isn’t someone you decide to be

You find yourself a hero before you know it”

Those words became light

Etched deep into my heart

The old, tall mask of yours

With the courage you gave me

I’ll protect someone someday

Until that day comes, I’ll keep living on

The tears I saw behind your smile

I can’t forget them even now

The old, tall mask of yours

Even if I can’t see you again, it’s okay

I hear your voice whispering

In the wind, it says

“A hero lives within the heart”

The light you left behind

The mask falls gently to the ground

Like a quiet prayer

Your laughing voice saying, “See you again”

Merges with the springtime sky
