Lyrics

Japanese

優雅に芽を出した世界
手のひらに包んだ願いは彼方まで

幼気(いたいけ)な妖精は音のない螺旋から飛び出した
あてもなく彷徨えば望む時代が訪れる
ーーだから今は

遠い日手に入れる鍵は
赤錆びた扉を開いた


流れた雫が伝えた
この先に導くレールを辿り征く

辺りにありふれた想い
視界へ舞い降りた天使は

優雅に芽を出した世界
手のひらに包んだ願いは彼方まで

何処までも

続いてる

Romaji

yuuga ni me wo dashita sekai
tenohira ni tsutsunda negai wa kanata made

itaike na yousei wa oto no nai rasen kara tobidashita
atemonaku samayoeba nozomu jidai ga otozureru
dakara ima wa

tooi hi te ni ireru kagi wa
akasabita tobira wo hiraita


nagareta shizuku ga tsutaeta
kono saki ni michibiku RAIL wo tadoriyuku

atari ni arifureta omoi
shikai he maiorita tenshi wa

yuuga ni me wo dashita sekai
tenohira ni tsutsunda negai wa kanata made

doko made mo

tsuzuiteru

Song Production Information

Xceon

I'm Xceon, a composer with a very difficult to pronounce name.
It's pronounced "Ekshion".

This time, I created a bright song in my own style... that's the theme.
I'm not dark at all. You might also think so.
There isn't always a brightness within me, and from the one strong will I found within the depths of darkness, I intend to express such changing feelings.
So by all means, please try to play it! I'm also really happy to participate in this game.
Let's meet at arcades across Japan ＾－＾－＾－＾－＾

Mayumi Morinaga

Hello. I'm the vocalist moimoi.
I'm happy to be involved in this IIDX title.
My favorite arcade recently changed, and I'm still struggling to get used to the feel of the new buttons.
But I still had fun!
A few days ago, I succeeded in clearing this song while singing it.
I wish I could FULL COMBO Alternate beta someday....

Video Production Information

Kiyoshi Tanada(Motion Combat)

I'm Motion Combat, who's in charge of creating this video!
This song is "Alternate beta"!

The wind was blowing outside. Xceon had excellent chemistry with a sandstorm, but this time, it's also a super upper song with a quite fast BPM.
Perhaps it's the combination of the melody with Mayumi Morinaga's strong and effective influence, but when the sandstorm subsided, and a big double rainbow appeared at the site.
A rainbow and wind appearing at 5 o'clock in the early morning. I hope you can feel the fast-paced feeling in this video!

Please do your best to play it!
