Miller's angels in black and white...
I heard about what happened a few weeks ago, and it took me a while to get the courage to come see you...after...well...everything that happened.
Welcome everyone in...
I'm so sorry for everything. I knew everything about my father's resurrection, and I thought that you...of all people would be the one to make it. And even after you helped me so many times, I never thought....that this would happen.
Children dreaming of wrong and right,
I wonder if it's warm where you are. You always liked it when the sun was out.
Wrapped in grace and in sin.
Your grave is so small, and it has nothing. Not even a head stone. Nothing except for this rose. I wonder who left it here...
They come out of the blue sky...
Who ever it was...must really miss you. I know I do.
They come out of the blue...
There are so many things I wanted to say to you, and ask you. And it feels awkward that I'm talking to you when you probably can't hear me.
They come out of the blue sky,
I wanted to tell you that I...sorta...liked you. Even if you were my enemy.
But you never know...
I had my chance that one night...but I was too afraid to say anything.
Where their gonna go...
You saved me from that Hazel guy. And you were the only one willing to do it. Was my life really all that valuable?
Hey Romeo.
We talked the whole night, remember? It was really fun. I could never talk to Kou or Yaone about all that stuff.
Miller's fingers are traveling...
-Flashback-
"Finally awake?" Goku smiled at the young demon girl whose head was resting in his lap.
Down the length of her thigh...
Lirin blushed as she sat up, observing her surroundings. She noticed they were still in the woods. Four tents were pitched up, and only three were occupied.
But miller's mind is still wandering...
Goku got up and fed more wood to the fire. "You cold?" he asked Lirin. The girl blushed again. "A little." She half whispered.
Staring up at the sky.
He smiled and got a blanket from his backpack. "Here." He said, wrapping it around her.
They come out of the blue sky...
"Why?" Lirin asked.
They come out of the blue...
"Why what?" said Goku with evident confusion.
They come out of the blue sky...
"Why are you helping me?" she asked. Goku looked into the fire, decided on how to answer.
But you never know...
After a few seconds, Goku looked back at her and smiled. "Because I wanted to prove to Sanzo and the others that you're really not a bad person...I mean...everyone should get a second chance, right?"
Where their gonna go...
Lirin looked down at her hands. "I guess..."
Hey Romeo.
-End flashback-
After that...I couldn't stop thinking about what you said.
Don't come around...
About everyone getting a second chance...
Don't come around here...
I think maybe a long time ago...someone gave you a second chance too.
Please don't, don't come around...
That's why you believe in it so much...
Miller's angels are hovering...
I'm crying for you now...because I never gave you a second chance.
In between the earth and the sun...
You were always 'my enemy' to me.
In the shadow of God's unwavering love...
It was unfair of me to think that way, even after you helped me.
I am a fortunate son.
You've saved me twice in this life time...you died to protect your friends, the people of this earth and even me...
They come out of the blue sky...
I think I hear someone coming...so I'd better go now.
They come out of the blue...
I just wanted to leave here with no regrets...
They come out of the blue sky...
And...I never knew how to say thank you to my enemies...but I can say it to a friend...
But you never know...where their gonna go.
"Thank you."
Hey...Romeo...
I've never seen reload gunlock...so if that little 'Lirin is saved, blah blah blah' was wrong...so sue me.
Anyway...
'Nothing gold can stay' will be postponed... till I think of something.
Tootles...
