Selected Lyric
For The Love of Life (from MONSTER)
Track #NA - Commissions and Collaborations // By: David Sylvian & Haishima Kuniaki
And slowly, you come to realize
It’s all as it should be
You can only do so much…
If you’re game enough
You could place your trust in me
For the love of life
There’s a trade-off
We could lose it all
But we’ll go down fighting
And what of the children?
Surely they can’t be blamed
For our mistakes?
And slowly I’ve come to realize
It’s all as it should be…
That hiding space
A lonely place
How can the right thing be so wrong?
I’ve found mistakes
Where they don’t belong
For the love of life
We’ll defeat this
They may tear us down
But we’ll go down fighting
Won’t we?
The ending theme for an anime adaptation of one of my most favourite mangas.
