Literature Text

When I am hurt and come to you
If you'll just wrap your arms around me gently, I'll be happy
When I am down and can't get up
It's you I'm calling to, give me some of your bravery

Even if I should pray, my thoughts will never reach you this way
I'm wandering down this frozen road, and
Wherever I meant to go, I just can't remember it

Oh, never-ending night, grant me this one wish
That in your vast, starless sky, you'll find it in yourself to shine
For even though I lost myself, and I can never go back
A new day will come again, but only when the sky gives way to light

Among the stardust, there you were, someone I know I won't forget
And all those things you made me feel make me so grateful that we met
For even though our days are gone, no matter how much I cry
A new day will come again, but only when the sky will shine down upon you

When I'm too scared to fall asleep
If you'll just take me by the hand, I swear I can be happy
When dawn is breaking in the east
Your voice is comforting, though it's all lies you're whispering

Even if I should pray, no answers ever come my way
The nighttime has killed all of the stars
And now that they've disappeared, the angels have gone with them

Oh, never-ending night, grant me this one wish
That in your vast, starless sky, you'll find it in yourself to shine
For even though our time was short, as fleeting as a distant star
The sky is being born again, and surely then the night will finally shine

Among the stardust, there you were; a miracle, I know for sure
But in the people crowding by, I might not see you anymore
And though I know our days are gone, I cry out into the night
Now that we have said goodbye, tomorrow's light will frame your face in my memory

You are the nebula that's lighting up my life
Since you first met me, I feel I'm finally alive
All thanks to you

Oh, never-ending night, grant me this one wish
That in your vast, starless sky, you'll find it in yourself to shine
For even though I lost myself, and I can never go back
A new day will come again, but only when the sky gives way to light

Among the stardust, there you were, someone I know I won't forget
And all those things you make me feel make me so grateful that we met
For even though our days are gone, no matter how much I cry
A new day will come again, and once again the sky will shine down upon you
EDIT: Full version is up! :D

What are all these lyrics, woah! Reggy been busy. Usually when she supposed to be busy doing things that aren't lyrics.

This is the ending theme to No.6, a good new anime that Mimi and I happen to talk about on our podcast~~ :eyes: Check it out! [link]

A note aside from the shameless plug- the title means something like "starless sky" or "faint-starred sky". Rokutousei is a term for the dimmest star visible to the naked eye.

I always love your translyrics, seriously. Like usually when I leave a comment, it's because I have something to actually say. This time... I have nothing, except for... how dare you make me cry! I could barely finish singing because my voice kept breaking. And I have a job interview in forty minutes. Thank you for being perfect.
