Speaker A
Ah, I’m hopelessly sad. The beast controls me. Bubbles come out of my hands holding tautology.
Speaker A
Rather than thinking of passing clouds, I want to howl into the distance. I don’t even have time to catch my breath. That’s how painful it is.
Speaker A
Take it slow, burn my dreams. With the whiteness of my soul, I just want to light the fire of joy.
Speaker A
Imagination, that’s a little easy money. With my hands of words that never grow cold, I want to count what never burns out and just scoop up.
Speaker A
Now, everyone, please take a look. The dried-out beast of mine, making a sound of simmering rage.
Speaker A
Ah, after I blew out the candle, all that is left for me is ridiculous pedantism.
Speaker A
Towards passing clouds, I wonder why I’m howling. I don’t even have time to feel sad. That’s how sad it is.
Speaker A
With imagination, just one will do, bring the sun to my lonely heart. Light the fire, fire of joy, please.
Speaker A
Irritation, that’s a little easy money too. With my hands in agony, I want to count what never burns out and just pick up.
Speaker A
Half in doubt and wounded all over, I still want the sun. So light my fire even more. Let it all out.
Speaker A
If it’s supernatural power, fiction, or escapism, I don’t care. Light my fire even more. Make me quiver.
Speaker A
Let the sunset burn my eyes. With the whiteness of my soul, I just want to light the fire of joy.
Speaker A
Go high above and beyond my imagination. With my hands of words that never grow cold, I want to collect all, even what has burned out, and just scoop up.
