Heaven's Lost Property: a Movie of My Emotions
A voice, a silky sweet voice i my ear
a whisper, a whispering question hanging in the air
but there's a conflict of interest
I'm no master nor hero
not even a zero, I'm just a boy
a boy craving peace
I object the idea that you, my Nymph
you, my little Nymph, would dare offer to call me master
Freedom, well freedom is pretty great
but her voice, her speech turns panic as she tries to reveal her side
in half sleep, I hear her recite she believes I'm amazing
that she may, may be in l...
Ahhhhh! ! ! !
What's this searing pain in my head
like someone stuck a lightening bolt in
stealing from me what I never wished to forget
My little Nymph, attempting to shield me from danger
snuggles up close to me, hoping to cure me of this
but what, what does she know that I honestly don't...
'What do you mean you don't remember? '
the question I posed to my friends
'How can you possibly forget..her?
we have all these pictures decorated in albums
how am I the only who remembers? '
And it's then O see the answer I refused to believe
a chase then began to chase a ghost only I can see
only I know to be real
I raced across town, to her garden, to the lookout where we both declared that we love this town
the lookout where I wrapped her hair with a bell is now where
I scream in protest to her disappearance
'Where did you go? ! Where did you run away to? '
I beg of little Nymph, of Icarus
where did she go, to tell the truth so I finally know
and at the truth I felt my voice go
as I shouted to the heavens 'NOOOOOO! ! ! '
....
From the sky she fell, the girl who swore she loved me
the very first to tell me so
From the sky she fell, an angel like machine
a clockwork angeloid it seems
in search of me
but something's wrong, something's off
That blank stare, her subtle mechanical movements
is she under someone else's control
She has wings of love
but eyes of hate as she rains bombs across the land she admired most
to find the boy she wants to kill with the arrow cupid gave her
Little Nymph, the heroine
Icarus, the protector
Astria, the muscle
try to quell the beast with angel wings
but it's my burden to bear, not theirs
for if they destroy her
they would only succeed in destroying themselves
So I, with wings of my own, race to her side
look her in the eyes
break the spell someone else cast upon the beloved...
'Do you remember me? ' I said
'Remember us, remember us, this very town you adore
here, do you remember here
then maybe let me refresh your memory
by placing this bell you left back in your hair
so you can finally see...me'
And with startling tears she's back
she remembers her friends, who we are, everything
but yet our time is brief
in a 30 second twilight,30 second hour
she hacks Icarus with a message
steals my lips for a first and last kiss goodbye
then she arises in the air, majestic
like an angel recalled back to heaven
and I without wings, in someone else's care
can't chase after her with haste
only watching as her tears fall down
makeshift rain twixt a sad joyful smile
self-destructing leaving only pink feathers
to cascade down like precipitation of a cherry blossom tree
Within that instant
I could feel my heart collapse, my mind snap
I promised her I would save her like I saved the trio at my back
yet now it's me, me who sheds the tears of grief
She's gone, my friend
she's gone, my promise forsaken
She's gone, the first girl to me she loved me
she's gone I grieve
but I'll thank her just the same
cause it's her I will never forget
Thank you her...
thank you Hiyori...
