Japanese
雲間からこぼれ出してく まぶたを閉じても 溢れる光 浴びて 今日も歩いていくから 涙は笑顔になるための通り道 迷い続けながら Fly away to starry sky 何度と 零れ落ちた 心のしずく 今 弾け出してく 色とりどりに 染めて 空へ

Song Production Information
dj TAKA
To me, the word SIRIUS evokes the image of "the brightest star in the sky" and I decided to create a song based on that.
I don't even feel an imitation would do it justice.
Music of this kind would be considered to be "Twinkle Sound".
Kanako Hoshino

Video Production Information
Masashi Komino
This is my first time creating a video, and I had a good experience.
I think that the intro scene is impressive.
If someone else is playing the song, please come and watch.
