Yes, give me back all those I loved, the unchanging, the rotting, and the dying ones.
Yes, those being given birth to, those giving birth, those who sin,
human suffering begins from this time.

the faces of those who are dying seem so happy,
the faces of those being born seem so sad
Bye Bye Mother.
People in this society build nothing.
People of this society hurt eachother unknowingly
I am alone.

Without a face the crowd gathers and sucks me in.

Look, my heart now being crushed feels like it's about to tear apart
I just wanna be held in warm hands and sleep.

My Sweet Mother smile, in the end let me sleep warmly
Deadly Sweet Mother smile, in the nighttime I'm going to sleep holding the pain.

No, there's no freedom, in freedom there's a wall of freedom,
return those I loved to me
Yes, in deciding the rules, those who decided them, by doing so, lose their freedom.

the faces of those who are dying seem so happy,
the faces of those being born seem so sad
Bye Bye Mother.
People in this society build nothing.
People of this society hurt eachother unknowingly
I am alone.

My Sweet Mother smile, in the end let me sleep warmly
Deadly Sweet Mother smile, in the nighttime I hold the pain
My Sweet Mother smile, in the end let me sleep warmly
Deadly Sweet Mother smile, let me be free to say goodbye in the end.

    General Comment:This one is about his mother's death obviously. And how much he is going to miss her...

    General Comment:I like this version of the song much more than the one on the Kisou album. The song, in what i believe it means, deals with the whole entire nature of a person's life. In the beginning, born into the world, having to deal with all the stress of death, life, and all in between. The end, when one feels the sweet release of death, finall able to "sleep" in the end.

    General Comment:I've only heard this version, but I would like to hear both. I think it's just that the other one can hit home with alot of teenagers. I know that it does affect me (not in the same way as some), but overall I like this one really well.
