Lyrics
Japanese
「地球滅亡の日、どう過ごしますか?」 そんな ありふれた質問にアイツは 「とりあえず、やりたい事やるでしょう」だって!! きっと立つ事さえ 出来ないケドね だって想定外でしょ? 平和な時代 埋もれてちゃ 戦えもしないクセに「共存だッ!」な～んて 笑っちゃう これ以上 寄らないで 共に 死にたくナイの ESCAPE TO THE SKY☆彡 飛び出さなきゃ 腰ヌケ唾吐いて それとも 誰か守ってくれるかしら? その身に代えて? 足元が崩れた時 初めて知るかも 「僕の世界に、太陽などなかった・・・・。」って ドコを見て そう言ってるの? ダレに向けた 理屈なの? その場所は未来永劫 存在すると信じてるの? 守りたきゃ戦えば? 全て 失う前に ESCAPE TO THE SKY☆彡 飛び出さなきゃ 広がる世界へ ちっちゃなSPIRAL 埋もれてる暇はナイの 一緒にしないで！ 冴え渡る空見上げて 一つ深呼吸して ESCAPE TO THE SKY I WANNA GET BIG HAPPINESS!!

Song Production Information
NAOKI
This is the second TЁЯRA original song in the GF&DM series.
The music I recently enjoy listening to these days is Western rock (alternative and punk), so I feel capable of working quickly using my instincts as my body swirls with thoughts... that's what I felt.
The easiest thing to say, but the most difficult idea to implement, is "to keep it pop", but that is my and TЁЯRA's primary belief and identity. I would appreciate if many people could feel it in this song.
jun
To all the GF&DM fans, it's nice to meet you all (in the comments). I'm jun.
Following WE ARE, TЁЯRA will continue to participate in our second work titled ESCAPE TO THE SKY★彡, so I hope everyone has played it!?
This song is unusual for jun, as NAOKI allowed me to listen to the song for the first time and finish the lyrics during the same day.
The lyrics, which were (apparently) born from inside of jun's mind, were more punky than ever, which caused me to almost faint when I read them again afterwards.
It was a time when several thoughts began to intersect in my mind.
Even now, when I think back on that time, I was troubled, crying, and having a hard time....
...ESCAPE TO THE SKY★彡 contains a strong and powerful message that I want to convey to myself and anyone else who feels the same way.
When you are depressed or worried, I want you to play to the best of your ability.
And I will be very happy if this song connects to your power of tomorrow.
Video Production Information
amamon.
I'm sorry to those surprised.
This is a live action video.
After discussing with both TЁЯRA members, we settled on a "live action" video.
Since it's a full-length live action video, Fire Rabbit Yaro is doing his best except in the chorus.
Well if I'm not mistaken, it turned out to be energetic and bright as a rock song.
It's the first time I filmed a live action video, so I received advice from various people about how to place filming equipment, how to use the software, how to light the camera, how to shoot, and many other things (thank you so much everyone!). I started from scratch.
Learning new things has been so much fun!
So I actually filmed in a small room (Approximately 2 square meters in every direction...)
The lights were also hot while filming...
Just joking around with a certain "w" guy, and testing things makes me sweat a bit...
In such a way, I admire both TЁЯRA members, who endured around 3 hours of filming.
I was at a drinking party with jun near the end of last year, and told her that I would like to film in a location with slightly better facilities.
