Kenshi Yonezu- Flowerwall (Acoustic)- ENGLISH Cover

Even in those memories, we called it fate, our destiny...
Writing the lyrics for these songs gives me a lot of insight into what they're actually about, and the themes present within them. I just really love the idea of a song about getting close to someone and the anxieties that come with that.

Lyrics:
Ever since the day we met, I knew that everything would change
I need to repay a debt to you for something kind of strange
The days we thought we wouldn’t make it through
The days I thought I was in love with you
They all fade away into nothing
They say that you could fill a book with all the things you’ll never know
I know I’m not supposed to look, and yet I have to watch you go
How long is it until you’re out of sight?
How long until I never dream at night?
How long til we’re both just a memory?
I think I hear you calling, it’s stopping me from falling
I don’t remember bawling, the wind just blows it all away
My flowerwall, this boundary
It’s made of all the flowers of my wilting memories
And I think that maybe everything’s alright
It stands so tall, does it ask of me?
I think it falls when there’s nothing left to protect me
But I can’t be sure if anything is right
Even in those memories, we called it fate, our destiny
But I could not have known what you would mean to me
There’s so many things I want to be, but I’m running out of time
I don’t want your smile haunting me, is that some kind of crime?
For all the times that you make up for me
And all the times that I make up for you
We make something whole, something real
Of all the hundred million, of kings and of civilians
You dye my heart vermillion, like this is where we’re meant to be
Your flowerwall, this melody,
I hear it call for this leap of faith you’re embracing
And I think that I’m a fool for doubting you
I feel so small, like a desperate plea,
But that’s okay since everything leads up to me
It’s a rainbow of our ups and downs and blues
Even now I won’t give up, I won’t let go, of what we have
But even if I slip, I won’t fall off the path
If it grew and no one knew, I think that I’d cry
So before our goodbye, can you try to get by without a name
If I’m dead I’ll go ahead and think of a way
Even if I decay, it’s okay, cause I remember that day
My flowerwall, this boundary
It’s made of all the remnants of my wilting memories
And I think that maybe everything’s alright
It stands so tall, does it ask of me
I think it falls when there’s nothing left to protect me
But I can’t be sure if anything is right
Oh, is that all? It fills me with glee
To know I fell with you even if that would kill me
And I know that you and I will be alright
Our flowerwall, this memory
Of standing up and begging the worst of the worst
Keep on smiling, no matter how it hurts
Even in those memories, we called it fate, our destiny
But now I think I know what you always mean to me
