I was thinking I wanted to have a new song for the Secret Live on September 13, so I wrote this sometime in September. It's like my kick-off song for 10th style. Since lots of time has passed, I get kind of nostalgic listening and remembering, but I can remember remaking the song over and over when Tomomi's vocal work draws me into the song. The song delicately balances a sense of sorrow with a positive feeling of having overcome, which is fairly well portrayed in the lyrics, almost as if it was mirroring my own experiences of the time. Even now it's burned into my heart as if it was yesterday.
I wanted to perform a new song at the 9.13 secret LIVE, so I created this trance song around early September, and it's the kickoff song for 10th.<br>
It has been a very long time, so listening to it now feels nostalgic to me, but I remember remaking it from the beginning many times to show the new vocalist Tomomi's nice parts.<br>
The excitement of when my music matched the straightforward lyrics, which expressed the delicate psychological situation of overcoming sorrow with positivity, still remains in my heart like it was yesterday.

Sometimes painful things can be the most healing of all. I think there are times like that ... For example, like when you undergo a basic medical treatment instead of seeking temporary relief ...
It's pain that doesn't heal me, it saves me.<br>
I wonder if there are also cases like this... I think. For example, when you undergo basic medical treatment instead of seeking temporary relief, or...


I think this is a song that uses each and every effective method of care. I was extremely impressed by the expression of even those methods that are full of "pain", the soul-rending melodies and heart-piercing timbres. How do you portray that sort of feeling? That's the theme.
I think this song fully uses various methods of care. Among them, I was extremely impressed by these expressions, which were also similar to the medical treatment and rehabilitation associated with "pain", so a timbre melody which tears and pierces your heart. How do you express that? That's a challenge.


Do you leave it shut, or open it ...
And, will it remain closed or open...?
