I wanted freedom since the day I was born.
I wondered about the world beyond the walls.
Standing before closed doors, I felt anger.
I wanted to break the world that confined us.
There was no paradise beyond the sea.
The world I wanted never existed.
I chased freedom in my dreams, but...
At the end, there was only an ocean of tears.
I became bound by memories of the future.
I had no choice but to keep moving forward.
Freedom ended up becoming my prison.
I burned everything in my path.
All of this is the scenery I wanted.
Towards that empty world beyond the walls.
Even if I can't forgive myself.
Because this is the freedom I chose.
I saw myself in my enemy's eyes.
We were simply trapped in different prisons.
We just had no other choice.
Everyone carried their own hell.
I became bound by memories of the future.
I had no choice but to keep moving forward.
Freedom ended up becoming my prison.
I burned everything in my path.
All of this is the scenery I wanted.
Towards that empty world beyond the walls.
Even if I can't forgive myself.
Because this is the freedom I chose.
I told you to forget, but hoped you'd remember.
I want to wrap the red ribbon around your neck again.
Because you were more precious to me than anyone.
Live long, long happy lives.
All of this is the scenery I wanted.
Towards that empty world beyond the walls.
Even if I can't forgive myself.
Because this is the freedom I chose.
All of this is the scenery I wanted.
Towards that empty world beyond the walls.
Even if I can't forgive myself.
Because this is the freedom I chose.
