The following lyrics are from the We are “Try to Singers” album for ÆTHER -Try to Sing Ver.-. The original ÆTHER has no vocals.

Japanese

待ったなしのスピードで  やってくる時間に
本当のことを託したら  気づけば後に引けない
ひょっとしたらこれ以上  入り込んでしまう?
まっさらな紙の上で  物語が動き出す
積み重ねた砂の城  何度も壊されて  やっと悟る
心ごと海に溶けて  泡になる

それは青く青く  ただよう陽炎
揺れる  揺れる  幻のよう
巡り巡る神秘の扉を  開いたその先へ...

それは青く青く  ただよう陽炎
揺れる  揺れる  幻のよう
巡り巡る神秘の扉を  開いて見つけた

それを辿る辿る  真理の迷路
揺らぐ  揺らぐ  命の模様
めくりめくる  ページの最後に  刻んで残した

それは続く続く  まばゆい継承
宿る  宿る  魂、鼓動
光り光る未来の歴史へ伝える
5つのNeed for the ÆTHER
