I Am Only One
Memories fade into the silence
Haunting me tonight
With hope's last breath I take this moment in
It will be the last
Then morning breaks
And sunlight takes the pain away
Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a life that never was
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one
I close my eyes and bleed this empty heart
Of all that longs to die
When faces lie and love will falter
I'm left with only time
And time will break
The dreams that take the pain away
Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a love I'll never have
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one
I'm on my own here
And no one's left to be the hero of
This fairy tale gone wrong
As night will fall
My heart will die alone
Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For my heart to beat again
And all the dreams I've laid to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one
I am only one

You aren't cruel... You can be callous and short-sighted at times, but you are not cruel...
[But the first part...]
But I don't... know how to answer that question, Souji... If you didn't remind me of him then you would be an entirely different person...
...
He didn't exist to me aside from a name on a page when we met... I began to love you long before my memory was restored...
So... isn't... that the same thing...?
[The harder question was whether or not it would have turned out the same if she did have her memory... It was entirely possible that the similarities would have been too painful for her...]
