あくせく働いたら あとは眠りにつくだけ そんな日々、過ごしても ウンザリするほど退屈さ すれ違う他人の目に 映る 景色よりも もっと 思うまんま 生きるのさ かならずイイコトあるだろう どんなツキがオレを照らしてる 胸騒ぎが続くの? 夜を越えて、時間を飛び越え、 この世界を、駆けぬけて行け

Song Production Information
ucchie
This song was produced as an instrumental that extended the 5th style name entry music.
dj TAKA heard the completed product and repeatedly called out the name of a particular male idol group, saying "we have to include this song!", so Shapes was urgently founded for IIDX, and it became a groovy dance pop song.
I added the melody at the end, so the arrangement is a bit strange, as if the backing track ignored the song, but I hope you enjoy it as well.
