A distant cry de Serial Experiments: Lain

Although i must be innocent,
now i am punished.
i wasn't the one who sewed those seeds, but nevertheless
i have to pull up the flowers that bloomed from them.
kokoro made yasuku utta oboe wa nai i can't say i didn't know about it,
but i don't remember taking any part in it.
i think my freedom cost me dearly,
but i don't remember selling my soul so cheaply.
hey hey until i die and say farewell . . .
hey hey . . . no one can touch me.
you probably don't know
the eternal outlaws prowling in the distant night.

The act wasn't inexcusable
but the wounds from it aren't curable.
on nights when i almost want to cry, i hold a woman
and fly high away from this petty, corrupt world.
hey hey until i die and say farewell . . .
hey hey . . . no one can touch me.
you probably don't know
the eternal outlaws prowling in the distant night.
although i must be innocent,
now i am punished.
i think my freedom cost me dearly,
but i don't have the guts to sell my soul so cheaply . . .
