Lyrics: Mizuki Nana
Music: Agematsu Noriyasu (Elements Garden)

1. Synchrogazer

Listen to my song, ooh…

Can you hear my voice? Please tell me…
Aiming at the fabricated sky without answers, fly far away…

Embrace my everything, because words aren’t enough
I can’t control it, I don’t want to…
The sensation I’m having for the first time
I will sing it to you, the beginning of infinity…

‘So smile…’
I embrace you warmer than anyone, stronger than anyone
Is it okay if my trembling heart is shaking? Something is moving…
Surely, from the day we were born to the day we would meet, we have been searching
I remember the nights where the wind was crying
The traces we played together dance in the heavens

Are you feelings reaching you? Truth or false?
Every time we touch each other, the irritation grows stronger, crying more crying…

Always just avoiding, it looks like I’ll lose sight of tomorrow
So that I can’t get hurt, so that I can’t hurt
It’s just the lies that are increasing

‘But smile…’
From a bit painful to the extent of suffocating… because it’s precious
I was afraid of my uncontrollable self and my yearning feelings
Finally, I realized the instinctive rhythm circling through my whole body
I’m not letting go of you again
A number of yesterdays illuminate the future

Even if this body will decay, there are things I want to convey to you
Resound, the song of life, flap your wings to the distance

‘So smile…’
I want to embrace you warmer than anyone, stronger than anyone
Is it okay if my trembling heart is shaking? Something is moving…
Surely, from the day we were born to the day we would meet, we have been searching
I remember the nights where the wind was crying
I draw the miracle we spun together in the heavens

Bright Stream

Standard

Lyrics: Mizuki Nana
Music: Yoshiki Eriko

1. Bright Stream

The you who is reflected in my eyes, what are you looking at?
Illuminating in the darkness I can’t wipe away, is a beam of light
Even my wounded heart returns to kindness
And a pure radiance unties everything

‘Don’t be afraid,
I am always by your side’
Your voice resounds in my sky

Pure white feathers search for tomorrow
They cross over many nights
Embracing the sadness I hid on my own
With just the number of stars (tears) that overflowed
I definitely believe I can become strong
Because you are here, I won’t cast my eyes down

The me who is reflected in your eyes, what is she thinking of?
In the first warmth I understood, anxiety struck
Before I knew it, the wish that disappeared time after time
Erased even the meaning of ‘honest’

‘I want to be here,
I want to be together forever’
I thought that if I spoke of it, we would lose it again

Pure white dreams seek for freedom
They compose an endless future
Breaking the clock that remains still
I want to convey it to you faster than to anyone else
Opening the door to the truth
I am here so I will protect you to the end

I want to see your smile more
When I realised, I laughed as well
You taught me
That the days we take for granted are so precious

Pure white feathers search for tomorrow
They cross over many nights
Embracing the sadness I hid on my own
With just the number of stars (tears) that overflowed
I definitely believe I can become strong
Because you are here, I won’t cast my eyes down
Let’s leap towards the place where it began

Hoshikuzu Symphony

Standard

Lyrics: Shihori
Music: Shihori

7. Hoshikuzu Symphony

The snow fell down on top of the asphalt
Blooming in the interstice of the buildings I looked up at
In the sparkling display window, I notice my bangs
Peeking through the glass, you were smiling

It was like a prank of God
In this same moment
We met by chance without being diverted by the surging crowd
My heart’s throbbing was about to accelerate!

Soaring with you to the ocean of stars
In my heart, feathers are growing and about to leap, it’s angelic
Resounding sympathy by just exchanging gazes
Let’s begin our story
That is more like a miracle than a novel

Why? It’s strange, when I’m with you
I can also see the common days sparkle

If I let my completely chilled fingers
Softly slide into your pocket and grasp yours
I can’t stop it, at this rate… I want to take flight!

I am falling in love, it’s almost like a shooting star
My heart carries a fever, it won’t cool down, it’s luminous
The name that your voice calls is lovely
It’s more like a dream than when I dream
I want to grasp your warmth tightly

Ah… let’s cast a magic that won’t ever thaw
With a kiss to vow for it
Our white breaths overlap and become a crystal

Tonight, the diamonds that are scattered in the night sky
Play symphony in the infinite orbit

Soaring with you to the ocean of stars
In my heart, feathers are growing and about to leap, it’s angelic
Resounding sympathy by just exchanging gazes
Let’s begin our story
That is more like a miracle than a novel
