I can't write a lie; the world of imagination is no good…

“I can't write a lie; the world of imagination is no good. I objectively capture my own experiences and those of my friends. I want to put true feelings into words. If I make a song when I'm sad, it's a dark one, but I think that's good. No matter when I want to be true to myself.” quote by Ayumi Hamasaki
