(“I was granted the honour of singing a song by mister Itou Kenji, or ‘Mister ItoKen’, of whom I’m very fond. Actually, when I was 18 years old, I once was allowed work on game music together with him, but the game was shelved… Time has passed, and now finally the dream has come true. Because I am from the same birth year as mister Maeyamada (Kenichi), we got along well since our first meeting. While exchanging opinions, a powerful work was created. It’s a deep song that brings out the taste as you listen to it more.” – Mizuki Nana, Seiyuu Animedia May 2014)
Lyrics: Maeyamada Kenichi
Music: Itou Kenji, Maeyamada Kenichi
13. Million Ways=One Destination
To go on living means to keep on getting hurt?
The power of words called resignation comes to attack us today as well
From in between the wind, I can hear a voice again
‘For what sake?’ ‘For whose sake?’
I close my ears to it
The answer from that day grows hazy in the fog, but
I know by touch
that there is only destination
I don’t want to run away, that strong impulse
is a fatal signal that rings the bell
Reason and emotions are diverging
The rain that is falling like spears
Is glaring at me and cutting the present to pieces
Believe in the light you can’t see yet
Everything happens within time, it’s ripped and grows wild
Close your eyes to the sweet nightmare that’s melting again
The thin, long thread that I have spun
ties reality with illusion
Anger falls into pain and despair into hatred
I will sever those chains
With these hands
Even the uncertain truth,
Even the blurred map to the future,
I won’t need it if it’s for deepening the darkness
The red flame that was born
When you lost for the first time,
Changes to a blue tinging with heat
In the contradiction, though struggling,
Fate is being created
I believe million lights
Million ways, but we’re gonna reach one destination
Million days, but we’re gonna achieve one precious time
Million ways, but we’re gonna reach one destination
Million days, but we’re gonna achieve one precious time
I don’t want to run away, that strong impulse
is a fatal signal that rings the bell
Reason and emotions are diverging
The rain that is falling like spears
Is glaring at me and cutting the present to pieces
Believe in the light you can’t see yet
