I fly to the horizon of the night sky, flying towards tomorrow. I leave the battlefield behind me once again, to be lost in the nights embrace. Today has passed, tomorrow I?ll start all over again. As every night the dying sun, takes away the memories of the victims I made this day. And I let the rain was the blood of my hands. I?ll be clean as always, to start all over again.
Let today not be repeated, I beg again. Let the dawn of tomorrow bring something new.
But wishes only make a true soldier weak, and a bleeding heart is the last thing I need.

Kokoro ni nokoru
Kasuka na kioku wa
Togireta uta no you ni
Kinou wo tsunagitomeru

The few memories
Lingering in my heart
Like fragments of a song
Hang onto yesterday

The sky slowly passes by and I silently long, to go back to those days on long ago. I know my craving for vengeance will be satisfied, somewhere in an uncertain future. And once I place my mask aside forever, perhaps then, I can return to who I once was. Perhaps then I?ll have the courage to look at my sister with the innocent eyes of a loving brother.

Shinjitsu no mirai wo oimotome
Kodoku no tabibito wa samayou

Seeking for the true future
The lonely traveller wanders

I?m not looking to be forgiven, I just want to return. The hard life of a soldier suits me, but even I need my rest.
On my left side there is a picture of Relena. Such pure innocence, which I want to protect .
In my heart I want to be free of sins like her, but I have too much blood on my hands.
I don?t believe she?d forgive me, thought I?d like to think something else.
Relena , be free and I?ll protect you. I?ll never be set free, I?ll fight till the end.

Kokoro wa sakende 'ru
Hitomi ga mitsumete 'ru omae wa dare
Yume wo tojikomete tatakau dake
Tooi yoake

You whose heart screams
Whose eyes stare Who are you
Seal away those dreams and just fight
Faraway dawn

Dark is the night that covers my flight. I feel my hands on the control panel slip into my lap, and with closed eyes I let Tallgeese take me where it may. In this moment I clear my mind. Here is where I face my wishes and dreams of freedom, before I once again run off to fight.
Here is where I realize, it?s not my enemies that I fear, but my own doubts. But a cowardice warrior is something I can?t afford to be. As long as I?m afraid to give up tomorrow for the absolute victory, I?ll never be the true soldier that I wish to be.

Kamen no shita no
Sugao wa wasureta
Subete wo tsutsumikomu
Mugen no yami no you ni

Forgotten is the true face
Beneath this mask
Like the endless darkness
That engulfs everything

Rest now and don?t be afraid, as long as there is war I?ll have a goal in life. Tomorrow as every day, the dawn faraway will lead me back to the battlefield. Rest now and prepare for the fight, fight to live and let it not be my blood that colours the victory red.

Yasuragi ni kakareru asayake wa
Senshi-tachi no nagasu chi no iro

The morning embraced by peace
The colour of blood that flows in fighters

Nobody knows who I am, let me fight to find myself again. A duel with a pure opponent will never be called a battle, but a scream to find ourselves. Let me fight to deserve another dawn, I?ll fight till I find myself and then I can play dead again.

Dare ni mo wakaranai
Mirai wo sagashite 'ru omae wa dare
Sora wo somete yuku aoi honoo
Tooi yoake

You who search
For the future no one knows Who are you
Blue flames tinge the sky
Faraway dawn

Slowly the day breaks through, rays of light warn me it?s time to turn back to the battlefield I left yesterday. Once again, I lived through hell. I earned another day to turn into the man, I once was. To deserve being with he who matters the most. One step closer to home, I pray that one day I will reach it. I?ll fight for that dream, may it come true one day?

Mukuwarenu negai wo dakishimete
Kodoku wa sora takaku tabidatsu

Holding on to an unfulfilled wish
I travel high above the lonely sky

Kokoro wa sakende 'ru
Hitomi ga mitsumete 'ru omae wa dare
Yume wo tojikomete tatakau dake
Tooi yoake

You whose heart screams
Whose eyes stare Who are you
Seal away those dreams and just fight
Faraway dawn

Dare ni mo wakaranai
Mirai wo sagashite 'ru omae wa dare
Sora wo somete yuku aoi honoo
Tooi yoake

You who search
For the future no one knows Who are you
Blue flames tinge the sky
Faraway dawn

Gorgeous Angel. You did an amazing job. I can only to aspire to be as amazing a writer as you.

You encompased Zechs' role during Gundam Wing perfectly. Well said.

Wow. I liked this one a lot. In spite of it's shorness, I'll have to add this to my favorite list of Zechs introspective pieces. The only thing I have to say it that it's a little redundant in that Tooi Yoake is Zechs' song. I mean, I loved what you wrote, but the song says exactly what you wrote. I suppose that's the point of a songfic, but......... Is anyone getting what I'm saying? I'm not trying to be picky... It's just... :-? Ahh... nevermind.

I figured that, but it's still redundant... I really like it; I do! Out of all the other fics out there like this one (using the character's song, etc), this has to be the best one I've read. It's just... I dunno... awkward? It's like he's repeating himself. :-? That's all I'm saying.
