Backlight

Lyrics & Composition: Chiaki Ishikawa
Arrangement: Masara Nishida

On the pasteurized great deep
I go this way and that, pretending to be lost
I don't want to ever accept
that I am no longer human

"Though I squint my eyes, saying the white birds adrift in the sky are beautiful
tonight I step into the dwelling of sawtooth oak trees"...

How long should I apologize
falling prostrate before the light with someone miserable saying that?
Aah, the backlight fills our bodies black
Ahead of matchless days
dazzling, dazzling

"You may do anything here"
Oh darkness closing in ahead of
chanting like an spell many hundreds of times
It seems that that is known as "fear"

I crept through the deep seas, bringing along fish with no desire
A mere shadow of that, I hope someone is having fun now

"Strum stronger instead at the dead point"
I'll run preferably smiling to the edge of the cliff
Aah, the backlight lets the silhouettes stand out
I'm miserably frightened
Dazzling, dazzling

"Oh snowdrops blooming in full bloom in this night sky, erase everything
I recall when I was a child and led by the hand, and become unable to move"...

How long should I apologize
falling prostrate before the light with someone miserable saying that?
Aah, the backlight fills our bodies black
Ahead of matchless days
dazzling, dazzling

Recklessly, vividly
I am here
Dazzling, dazzling
Gyakkou
