I don't want to see you hurt any longer,
Someday -- you'll be stronger, Yuki
No matter how many times you fall
If my songs were the one to start it all,
then I'll keep composing
Until you find your genuine smile again

Saving Enanan and Amia, giving them peace through my songs
That alone warms my broken heart
But that was only a start
To a life-changing encounter
on that snowy night

Now, all I'm focused on is you, Yuki
I need to save you, I don't care what it takes
I couldn't do it alone, but I'm not alone anyway
I'm never alone, no matter how dark my life may be right now
Everybody in Nightcord -- You guys are special to me
And I care about everyone

That day when I visited my father in the hospital,
then I saw you collapsing from sickness
I wasn't going to leave you there
What you needed was tender care
And I gave you just that
When I held your hand, trying to ease your pain
Your ice cold hand clashed with my warm one

But that's okay, Yuki
Because since I was able to give you some hope to live,
I was also able to give you some warmth to carry on

It may sound selfish to say,
but I don't want you to give up
Never give up, Yuki
I promised you then, and I'll promise you again
I will save you with my music
It doesn't matter if it takes forever,
because I know it'll be worth it
I hate seeing you hurt because of your mom,
so I will do everything in my willpower
To bring you even closer to the light
To bring you closer to hope
To bring you closer to your former true self

Stay with me, Yuki
Stay with us
We need you; we need to save you
You're not alone in this, and you never will be

This harrowing journey that you're going on
Let us guide you!
Enanan, Amia and I
Let us help you find the light you're longing for
The light of your true self
that you lost long ago

So please, Yuki
Continue writing lyrics
Continue staying with us
Your lyrics are always great,
and someday you will be too
When we find your lost self, your lost identity
We're in this together with you,
so please hold on a bit longer

I'm grateful for everyone in Nightcord,
especially you
But it's not just the music itself
I'm grateful for everyone's inner strength

Despite the different pains we were suffering from,
we managed to find each other
And give one another hope through music
We've been through so much as individuals
but we've gotten stronger together
Our pain connected us all,
and I'm thankful for that hope -- no matter how small

I am grateful for music
because it allowed me to find you
And I'm grateful for the lyrics you write ; they're always good
Still, I don't think it's enough to save you
But I won't stop here
A promise is a promise
I cherished my life back then,
but now I cherish it even more

Mother may be gone, and Father is away
But I'm still not alone
I have Amia and Enanan
and I have you, Yuki
I also have Ms. Mochizuki to thank
so I can focus on my music
And focus on you


I cherished everything and everyone close to me then,
but I cherish everything and everyone close to me now
I've met you, Enanan and Amia
You're all incredible in your own ways
And what you do for the sake of Nightcord
makes me very happy
I want to hold on to everyone in our group,
because we four saved each other from the darkness and void of despair.
