Mononoke Hime

In the moonlight I felt your heart
Quiver like a bowstring's pulse
In the moon's pure light, you looked at me
Nobody knows your heart

When the sun is gone I see you
Beautiful and haunting, but cold
Like the blade of a knife, so sharp and so sweet
Nobody knows your heart

All of your sorrow, grief and pain
Locked away in the forest of the night
Your secret heart belongs to the world
Of the things that sigh in the dark
Oh the things that cry in the dark

Sadness and Kindness

Your eyes are a mirror in which I can see the world’s reflection
without ever forgetting your kindness
even if my heart is full of sad words
I will stare long and hard at the stars…

Thank You

Original Title : Arigatou
By : Sunset Swish

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words that for the life of me I was never able to come out and say
Thank you so much

Ah, the town where I grew up, cultivating reckless passion
Whenever things didn’t go right I stopped believing in myself
But then I saw you, working so hard you were sweating
And it captivated me, it saved me, time and time again

I chased things I couldn’t reach and fell down like a fool
But you taught me the importance of not giving up

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
You enveloped me in an unchanging tenderness and strictness
Thank you so much

Not everything I’ve said or done has been right
But I did it with heart and passion, it was really embarrassing
When you showed me the way, I always talked back
Asserting myself, taking the long way round, getting lost

I rebelled and hurt myself, got carried away and lost track
And I think I learned a little about the importance of not giving up

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words I couldn’t say to you, who I love but hated
Thank you so much

I can run even when it’s hard to keep going
Surely, surely like you

If I trace the tears that are helplessly, unstoppably overflowing now
I’ll be able to meet you in my memories
The words that for the life of me I was never able to come out and say
Thank you so much
Thank you

Sentimental Moments

Original Title : Shunkan Sentimental
By : Scandal

Promises that shouldn't have been exchanged
Will try and take away our future today, too
Even if I obtain what I had wanted
I wonder why I still can't smile naturally

These tears that brim are neither of weakness nor regret
They're fragments born from the pain

Whatever moment, whatever fate
I've learned that only one thing is certain
Thinking to myself, from being lost in this moment
Tomorrow, I'm going to go forward

Always wanted to think
How my heart is after all that
I can't switch it
Always ruined the unchangeable future
I can see the unsurprising melody

That useless person, even when he smiles, he's shining bright
All the more, why does he shine?

Is it really a lie?
Don't give me an excuse
My heart wants to feel it

Definitely love, fantasy
I don't want to deceive it
Even if I'm hurt
I want to understand it
And it's a strong wish
There's also time when I fret

When the blue sky sheds tears, I spread my hands
Can we stay together like this for 10 years?

Whatever moment, whatever fate
I've learned that only one thing is certain

Whatever limits, whatever hardship
I don't want to give up
Don't let go
The warmth of your right hand that I held so tight
Is still here with me

The Love Song

OST. Nurarihyon no Mago
By : LM.C

I’m ready Go Stay gold
Because of love there are no more walls
For all the things that I love, this is The Love Song
I’ve lived my life holding on to everything
So that I won’t lose anything
If I don’t have the courage to reach out my hand
I can’t grab hold of anything beyond what I have now

Are you ready? Go! Stay gold
Lining up the sparkling, high-sounding talk, here we go
It’s never words that I want to convey

I can’t make a sound despite the screams in my heart
How many of it must I gather before it’ll reach you?
For all the irreplaceable things that I love
I’ll sing an unending song

It’s not that I have quite a number of really important things
The future that I got just by letting nature take its course
I’ll leave it here without any hesitation

Because of love there are no more walls
Get across fast-beating hearts and nudity, bring it on
“Whether love is present there,” that’s the question

Surging emotions that I can’t hold back
How much of it must I accumulate before it’ll reach you?
For all the irreplaceable things that I love
I’ll sing an unending song

Hey, I’m gonna take you higher!! Baby, All you need is love!!

Life is going on Say yeah!!
Raise the universal level, here we go again
I won’t sing a song with no love and no heart

I can’t make a sound despite the screams in my heart
How many of it must I gather before it’ll reach you?
For all the irreplaceable things that I love
I’ll keep drawing the endless future

Love, do believe in love believe in love

This is The Love Song
