The path I've walked, like a rope binding my feet
The memories I've gathered, a wall growing taller
A growing shadow beneath my frozen feet
Searching for myself, forgotten in the noise
Sunlight shining through the gap in the door
A faint voice in the familiar silence
A melody awakened in the depths of time
An old song echoes once again
Sand slipping through my clenched fingers
The more I break, the lighter I feel
I want to be footprints that leave no trail
With empty hands, I move forward again
Clutching petals, afraid they might fall
The closer they touch my fingertips, the more they turn into wounds
A heart swayed by even the lightest breeze
Having lost the courage to let go
Sunlight shining through the gap in the door
A faint voice in the familiar silence
A melody awakened in the depths of time
An old song echoes once again
Sand slipping through my clenched fingers
The more I break, the lighter I feel
I want to be footprints that leave no trail
With empty hands, I move forward again
Moments arising beyond the end of time
Like gentle waves, gradually filling my heart
Footsteps growing lighter upon the stopped clock
Even this trembling now turns into a dance
Sand slipping through my clenched fingers
The more I break, the lighter I feel
I want to be footprints that leave no trail
With empty hands, I move forward again
Walking on the scattered sand
The more I break, the lighter I feel
Following the footprints left on the path
With empty hands, I move forward again
