Japanese proverbs and situations reinterpreteted for sadness.
Waiting in a tiny dark room,
for the sun rising again.

Honor only warms the soul,
the body freezes to the bone.

Death may be a feather,
a single feather can`t fly.

Duty is the mountain,
impossible for me to climb.

But everybody eager,
to use your stepping stone.

Where nobody sees you,
when you don`t cry,
when you don`t fall.

A crow doesn`t caw,
for a crawling man.

Neon blinds you for,
the hands from behind.

A hostess to embrace you,
for your lonely nights.

Don`t walk tall,
where others walk at night.

Nowhere to escape to,
nothing to crawl to.

Where nobody sees you,
where you don`t cry,
where you don`t fall.
