Aikara (Afterecho: 2026)

Tears overflow,
warmth tracing down my cheeks

Sorrow

To overcome it,
we search, we find
small pieces of joy

As we continue,
little by little
happiness begins to rise

Happiness...
and yet envy, resentment, and anger
burn it all away
until only one thing remains

Aikara,
where our story begins
our beginning, our rise, our turn, our end

Aikara, aikara
it all began
from the moment we met

Sorrow

To fill the emptiness, the loneliness
we reach for joy

Connections between people
ordinary, quiet happiness

Euphoria...
but anger slips into the cracks of the heart
blowing everything away
leaving nothing behind

Aikara,
the story we dreamed of began

Aikara, aikara
it all began
from the moment we met

Love me... love me...
you loved me... didn't you

Aikara, aikara, aikara
since when, I wonder

Being loved, loving each other
you loved me... didn't you

Tears overflow
warmth tracing down my cheeks

Tears fall
and dry upon my skin
leaving only this ache
