When They Cry (From "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni")

9

I turn and I see

There′s nothing behind me

(But who's in front)

Raising my hands up

My claws meet the night sky

(And I tear at the darkness)

Rain falls, dripping down my face

As the water turns a pure shade of blood

Before my very eyes

There′s no, no place for me

And I know; that there's no going back

Take away what's left of me

Every drop of blood I bleed

And I will take your hand

With your fingers still attached

In the forest of your mind

Where all the cicadas hide

Know when you hear them cry

There is no going back

They are extinguished

Each one in succession

(These flames of blue)

Off in the distance

Beyond total darkness

(Where the sun never rises)

Deep within the mirror′s edge

Many hands are desperate to breakaway

They′re reaching out to you

To cure their loneliness

Won't you lure

Another soul deep down here

Will you come away with me

While I sing this melody

Don′t even try to escape

It's a game of tag we′ll play

Every single trace of you

I will come to capture you

Where the cicadas cry

Only silence remains

Take away what's left of me

Every drop of blood I bleed

And I will take your hand

With your fingers still attached

In the forest of your mind

Where all the cicadas hide

Know when you hear them cry

There is no going back

Will you come away with me

While I sing this melody

Don′t even try to escape

It's a game of tag we'll play

Every single trace of you

I will come to capture you

Where the cicadas cry

Only silence remains
