She did not expect me,
To stay there for her.
When she said that the world her had forsaken,
I stayed there, my happy childhood was taken!
Too good for this world,
She thwarted her own attempt because I was there.
It was my greatest heroic save!
To this day I still cry,
Years long after her death.
Still trying to recover.
From two thousand and seven!
A hero under amnesia I became,
Back then, Tom Rubinshtein.
The PTSD was too hard to bear,
Yet enduring it I dare!
Statically shocked,
I remained,
When I saw her harakiri act.
Too good for this world,
Too good for this world!
I'll do whatever it takes to keep my inner light!
Years have passed but I still remain,
Trying to keep balanced and even.
Still trying to recover.
From two thousand and seven!
Sometimes my existence feels like a burden,
A burden on myself.
On my inner light's behalf.
Statically shocked,
I remained,
When I saw her harakiri act.
Too good for this world,
Too good for this world!
I am today Tomasio,
I want to live as a mysterious shadow!
Her successor, her heroic grandson!
Such a shock no child should endure,
Serenity... I pursue!
Beautiful testimony of courage, patience and endurance!
