“Because nothing is so fearful as giving up”

- Hamasaki Ayumi, Pride (lyrics source)

Somebody, speak
Shake me intensely
“There is nothing more to lose”
Don’t leave me by myself
When the night turns to dawn, somehow
Please, take me away from reality…

- Onitsuka Chihiro, Cage

Will I be able to make it through after all? Is it really worth it? This world filled with traitors and suffering which I think I’m seperating from? ‘Don’t die’ ‘Try and breathe once more’ ‘Don’t die’ ‘I said try and breathe once more’ But I don’t know how. It looks like I probably wouldn’t want to know now.

Nell- counting pulses (x)

Why am I crying? Why am I lost? Why did I stop? Please tell me when will I grow up? How long can I stay a child? Where have I come running from? Where am I running to? I had no place to live. I couldn’t find one. I don’t know if I could have any hope for the future. [...] They always said I was a strong child. They praised me, saying “you must be strong not to cry.” The more people said things like that, the more even laughing became agony. I was born alone. I’ll go on living alone. I thought that surely that kind of life is appropriate.

-Hamasaki Ayumi, A song for XX

my cold lips are calling for you (it’s you) hotly, it’s shouting, look for you (it’s you) even if you don’t respond when i call out (it’s you) i’m stil waiting for you. oh, i no matter what anyone anyone says, it doesn’t matter to me even if anyone anyone says bad about us, i’ll look at only you even if i were to be born again, there’s only you

-Super Junior, It’s you.

育つ雑草

I can throw it away, I can choose it,
I can run away, I can laugh,
I can sleep, I can fly,
I’m free,
and yet not free in the least.

Onitsuka Chihiro, Sodatsu Zassou (pulling weeds)

テイク 5

This day brings with it such a wonderful feeling, A feeling void of all hope and hopelessness, As I quest to become as lucid as the sky.[...] In every which way, I can honestly say I am happy, with feelings of neither success nor failure to restrain me, as I look to become as invisible as the heavens.

Utada Hikaru, Take 5. Can’t say I’m a fan of hers (though I recognize and aknowledge her talent) but this song is just beautiful.
