【Touhou Lyrics】 Emotional Skyscraper ~ Cosmic Mind

Описание:   / lyricalive  

Byakuren's theme. ...A powerful plea for equality. For many kinds, there is one kindness!

Gensokyo is all about drawing borders. It keeps its society functioning by acknowledging the differences between humans and youkai and pitting them against each other in balanced duels to keep themselves occupied and minimize harm. Thus, Byakuren's ideal of erasing borders and accepting all beings as inherently equal must sound very naive and heretical. However, I sympathize with the sentiments a lot.

Join with me… One innocent plea…
This world is filled with light, if only you choose to see.

Hail to the treasure. Let us come together, the way that we were meant to be.
And maybe we can live in peace and understanding; build it from a fantasy.
Rise above and you’ll have found it– pause and look around it,
A place where nothing else was ever real.
In a world that truly needs it, any who believe it can chase a forgotten ideal.

Join with me… One innocent plea…
This world is filled with light, and surely there’s more to see
In a line with no ordering. Imagine a land with no bordering!
Shining the brightest, on the path that is righteous:
For many kinds, there is one kindness!

Hail to the treasure. Here, we come together, the way that we were meant to be.
I know that we can live in peace and understanding, more than just a fantasy.
You can break the bonds that seal it– only you can feel it,
And no one else can tell you how to feel…
But I’ll help you if you need it. Any who believe it can join with me by the hand,
Facing the promised land, chase a forgotten ideal.

(Long nights, dark eyes… seize light, now, let us rise…)

As we stand, on the peak of our passions here,
Hand in hand, each reaching to an equal length…
None above another– each enlightened unto it, this highest point of truth:
That sameness shall be our greatest strength.

There will be many trials of our patience here,
On our path to realize the final goal…
Follow me, my brother– free from fragile attachments, embrace your inner essence:
One precious part of a cosmic whole.

Under skies overcast with the pain of fear,
Fear no pain, and rise above the fear of death.
At the least, I ask… faith, lead us never to fear these friends we cherish dear:
We chant in one voice, one single breath.

We believe it is so, then it shall be so.
Find one ground where surely we can all agree.
Now repress no longer these pure thoughts that will save us, these gifts the heavens gave us:
See how the world was meant to be.

Hail to the treasure. Let us come together, the way that we were meant to be.
And maybe we can live in peace and understanding; build it from a fantasy.
Rise above and you’ll have found it– pause and look around it,
A place where nothing else was ever real.
In a world that truly needs it, any who believe it can chase a forgotten ideal…
