i'm sure you will empathise with my silence.

i know what hurts the most seeing my dad off at the Changi Airport x times per year. i seriously know.


...... next time.

The Door of the Stars

If it is the real painful truth,
I’ll keep everything close to my heart without averting my eyes.
I’ll walk on,
beyond the distorted barrier towards the door of the stars...

目をそらさずに 全てこの胸に
刺さる真実ならば
歩いていこう 歪み塞がれた
星の扉の向こう…

星の扉の向こう…

星の扉の向こう…

towards the door of the stars...

i still prefer Hoshi no Tobira to Honoo no Tobira. both the music and the lyrics. nope, it should be especially the music. melodious and grand, yet not over the top. most importantly, it kinda inspires the sense of courage and persistence that suit the lyrics perfectly... and my feelings too.
Honoo no Tobira has awesome prelude though. just the prelude.

If it is the real painful truth,
I’ll keep everything close to my heart without averting my eyes.
I’ll walk on,
beyond the distorted barrier towards the door of the stars...

i see the door of the stars.
