I will gently pull out
The thorn that has lodged itself into your heart
Overindulging in the sighs of butterflies on a moonlit night
You got yourself caught in a briar
Since frustration is your desire
I shall tell you crafty lies
The sleeping princess of the forest awaits her awakening
That is her desire, and the one she most wants fulfilled
Say, if I were to love her
Could I become her destiny?
You do not yet know what lies beyond this gate
If you enter, you will face your past, but remain unable to correct it
Becoming entangled with your tangled up intent
You cannot deceive me, for I see right through you
Though I am your desire, you avert your eyes
Running away from my fingers even though you yearn for my touch
Or is this a game?
Are you playing with me?
Well then, show me your wounds
If this is unrequited love, I will not waver
It is our fate to slip and fall
Each time adding to the bewildering pile of sins we each must bear
You cannot go back to that night, so sear it into your memory
If I truly am the object of your desire
Well, look as long you like
If we touch each other so that we may explore each other's bodies
Thoroughly enough to get to know each other, thoroughly enough to hurt each other
Then the more we understand each other, the closer we will become
And the more you, who has been sleeping for all this time, will be revealed
Deep in the forest, you awakened from your slumber
So, was it fulfilled? The one desire you most wanted so?
Listen, even if it is against your will, you will come with me
Even if you have enough hesitance to fill an entire basket, just leave it all behind
Look! If you turn your gaze skywards, you will see the stars are still there
If you have a wish of your own, they will grant it
I will be by your side
Go on, take my hand
