The sun is not rising. My desolation is born.

The moon does not shine through the darkness. A pair of green eyes shine in my darkness and burn my heart to ashes.

I didn't know love was so painful before I met you. Tell me, will the sun rise for both of us one day? Will the sun rise in both of us one day?

Tell me, who am I? Am I the victim? Or am I the murderer?
The sun is not rising, Soldier. And I'm afraid of the dark. But I promise you that one day I will pierce this darkness with the burning bodies of those who destroyed me. The sun will not rise, doomsday will come. I will still look for you everywhere.

Because there is only one truth in my heart. Even if I can never see the sun, I will never give up on you.
