the GazettE - 別れ道 [eng sub] LIVE HD

I got reminded of this song because there's a part in HOLD where Ruki also mentions a "pinky promise". Also, this is probably one of my most sung songs at karaoke, so it was on my list anyways! "Wakaremichi" means "parting ways", or more literally "crossroad".
I picked their「平成挽歌」 2004.4.23 Shibuya O-East performance for this one. Enjoy!
Translation by me.
Annotations:
"I loved you so much, but here we part" - Or if I was to paraphrase it more casually: "[...], but now it's over" (= ending the relationship).
"Saying 'do your best' and going separate ways might be..." - Only in the lyrics is this sentence completed by ending with "...better?".
"The day we first met" - While this is exactly what the lyrics say, Ruki always sings it as "The first time we met".
"Then together, so that we won't miss each other..." - "Miss" is in the sense of "to pass each other by", not in the sense of longing.
