My lips told one lie The reason was trivial And it wasn't for anyone else's sake I was just stupid And wanted to protect myself Then before I knew it, I was at my wits' end Surrounded by countless lies and unable to move I looked up at the beautiful sky And remembered you And thought, if only I were able To be strong and face forward like you In the middle of the journey, I ran away from reality I ran away from all that pain I used to always make excuses Saying I may be like this now But someday I'll become the me I want to be But now I realize All I can do is make it through the present Does my voice reach you? Does it echo in your heart? Today I'm walking once more With your back as my guidepost I looked up at the beautiful sky And remembered you And thought, if only I were able To be strong and face forward like you Does my voice reach you? Does it echo in your heart? Today I'm walking once more With your back as my guidepost
