Lyrics:

ON THE DAY

[Verse 1]
Can’t go to school today
Even so I slip on my uniform and see my parents
Tears got them blurring their face
Dressed in their darkest formal wear
They look away

Leaning out the car, I look at the sky
Even though it’s bright I can’t help but find it so unpleasant
A voice calls once we arrive
Beckoning for everyone to hurry up inside

[Pre-Chorus]
Room is full of her family and friends
All these people I’ve never even met
Fake a smile through my heart is still in shreds
Is this how it’s supposed to be? Did I bow just like you taught me?

Kneel. A tatami covered room
Feel the cold in my clothing bleeding through
Hear my name from the man who called before
And I open up the door

[Chorus]
Tenderly, looking so at peace
I could fool myself that you’re just asleep
Even now I think that you’ll wake up greet me with a smile
And tell me that you’re here with me

As we wash your corpse for the burial
I can’t believe your skin is so hard and cold
It’s all in my head.
Tell myself that it’s just a hollow body
Along with you, the dream of us is dead

THE NEXT DAY

[Verse 2]
Mourning the very next day
As I pull my arm through my uniform, my heart is so heavy
A hole has taken its place
but I need to show up to the parlor anyway

There you are inside a cherry coffin
Laying at your side, white chrysanthemums adorn your body
Stop to cover my eyes.
Breaking down in tears I didn’t think that I would cry.

[Prechorus 2]
Once it’s closed, I won’t see your face again.
Once it’s locked, then it really is the end
You’re not ‘you’, you become an ‘it’ to them
As I watch them carry ‘it’ away, I really am no better

Why is the sun allowed to shine?
Cicadas sing but sound more like a cry
Someone says that I’ll feel better with time
But I felt my heart had died

[Chorus 2]
Condolences and then life goes on
Once they close the lid, then it’s like you’re gone
I don’t know how to stop, I just sob with my arm holding my body
And it would never be enough

In the waiting room, light a cigarette
Nothing else to do, as I take a drag
Maybe it’s a waste but I don’t even taste it, thinking of you
Until it’s ashes too

I try to hold myself together but I can’t see the end
I’m numb to everything but then the doors slide open with a man
Calling me to come see you again

[Bridge]
Skin burnt to ash and dust
You and the dream of us
Loved ones to gather all your bones
So you won’t have to go alone

So what have you become?
As I hold you in my arms
An urn that I’ll never look into
Is all that’s left of you

[Chorus 3]
Promise I won’t let go
As I walk with you, you’ve become so small
I don’t want to talk, I can’t even believe how this could happen
Like suddenly I’ll just wake up

Even my own hands started trembling
Somehow I’m in pain and don’t feel a thing
I can barely breathe, I don’t think I can be in a tomorrow
That doesn’t have you there

And as the sun began to set, a myriad of colors form
It’s beautiful and terrible but life always finds a way to go on
Your memory becomes a part of me

THE DAY AFTER

[Verse 4]
Morning the very next day
As I pull my arm through my uniform, I don’t feel ready
Touching the red on my face
Concealer under my eyes hide it away

Leaning out the car, I look at the sky
Even though it’s bright, I can’t help but think of you already
A day like any before
Changed but the same as I open up the door
