ENGLISH "Lost One's Weeping" Persona 5: Royal (Akane Sasu Sora)

Описание: "Did we really choose it right, saying we're 'okay this way'...?"

Lil' somethin' for the ShuAkes this time. Because Akira has two hands.

Huge thanks to Mads for letting me use their MV for this one! It really brought everything together; the moment I saw it, I knew I wanted to sing along! I'm a huge fan of their style— please go check out their artwork! Their Ace Attorney pieces are my fave~

The lyrics on this one are JubyPhonic's! I'm not sure how many people remember, but she held a cover contest a few years ago and I placed in the Top 3! It meant so much to me, and I definitely wouldn't be here now without it! I haven't sang someone else's lyrics on this channel in a long time, but if they were anyone's I'm glad they were hers.

I tried to add some extra spice by using a Bandori instrumental! I really love the way the bass comes through on Afterglow's version, so that's the one I went with! It's really rare that a backing track itself can be motivate a cover like that, but I'm really happy with how it turned out!

Next up is more ShuSumi! Our Light comes out next month! Thanks so much for your patience.

'Til then!

LYRICS:

Feel it cutting into me, the doubting painful knife
Feel it deepening the rift, finally hit just right
Couldn't take the love I had, so weak and burning low
But it grew into a weapon only hurting me, this I know

...is non-fiction

So good with numbers, science, math I like
But I'm terrible at Japanese so I despise
This part of me that wants a simple "right or wrong"
And I feel that everything I choose will always be false

And today
This homework
About me
A blank sheet

Accomplished
Content with
This life I will now live

'Til I think why are we
Just sometimes no always
Saying how we're sad and
Saying how we're lonely?

Can you even read the blackboard written clear as can be?
Can you even read her mind? See that kid's lost fantasy?
Can you even find the one who dyed her red heart to black?
Hey, who was it?
Hey, who was it?

Can you even solve the question with your abacus yet?
Can you even stop the rope from hanging her by her neck?
Did we really choose it right saying we're okay this way?
Hey, just tell me how
It's not like I care now

Counting days like numbers, they all pass their prime
And again hypnotically swimming through time
Behind the power and guards I put up
I hide
Knowing they had long died

From problems
My resolve
Just can't solve
That homework

Accomplished
Content with
This life I will now live

'Til I think and he speaks
That demon inside us
Saying "let me just leave"
Saying "someone kill me!"

Can you even read the blackboard written clear as can be?
Can you even read his mind? See that kid's lost fantasy?
Can you even find the one who dyed his red heart to black?
Hey, who was it?
Hey, who was it?

Can you even solve the question with your abacus yet?
Can you even stop the rope from hanging him by his neck?
Did we really choose it right saying we're okay this way?

Hey just tell me how
Hey just tell me how!

Can you even say the formula of area now?
Can you even scream the dreams you swore would never go out?
Who was the one who let my hopes just curl up die?
Hey, who could it be?
You already know!

Just open up your eyes, why don't you grow up and see?
But what the hell is "growing up" and tell me when will I be?
Can a single person out there just explain it to me?
Hey, just tell me how
It's not like I care now!
