Lyrics: geekymcgeekstein
Vocals: geekymcgeekstein
Mixing: geekymcgeekstein
I will pursue this dream, 'cause I know it's expected
that I be serene
Upon this winding road, in the face of the crowds that bustle all around
Although it seems like I am chasing after the past, what I want is place where the sky is alive and like home to me
Please to try to understand the truth
That this is no choice
And I wish you'd stop with that look
Of despair
You're giving me
Tears are nothing but the shape of our weakness
And they won't bring any absolution
I do not see an end to this labyrinth
Who am I waiting for--
And
I write it down in the pages of my notebook
'Cause I'm looking for the me that is still honest
I am running but I don't even know why
From this reality
To chase my wishes I'll carry on living
And I will always remember the depths of the darkness
I'll face my demons and I'll no longer run away
There isn't a place to go
I'll lose this feeling of being so helpless
'Cause my whole life is ahead of me
I'll quash the numbness
'Cause pain's better than the emptiness
I must apologize, I've really messed up and
I am so ashamed
I may not say it much,
But I know that I make you worry all the time
Back then you always could accept the things I'd done
And you're still the same today so I'll try not to burden you
But try to realize that I have closed my eyes
Just because the world is too harsh
And I'm willing to blind myself
Rumors that they have spread about us
I do not know which was the first one
"We were friends from the second that we met,"
Just stop with the lies already
And my heart turned red with this passion
And it almost consumed my very being
'Cause in truth I'd held onto hope
From this reality
To chase my wishes I'll carry on living
And I really want to scream out, but can you even hear me?
I'll face my demons, and I'll no longer run away
There isn't a place to go
I still am grateful for the care you've shown me
So I'll find the strength to make it count
I'll always move onward
Facing my friends and foes alike
How do you unlock this door that has no key?
Can you think of a way?
We can't go back to the beginning
The story is set, and our destinies too
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
I'll lose this feeling of being so helpless
'Cause my whole life is ahead of me
And the things I once abandoned
I want to try and find again
Come on, just one more time
To chase my wishes I'll carry on living
And I really want to scream out, but can you even hear me?
I'll face my demons, and I'll no longer run away
There isn't a place to go
I still am grateful for the care you've shown me
So I'll find the strength to make it count
I'll quash the numbness
'Cause pain's better than the emptiness

[@antonioaguiarfilho]

10 years later, here I am, still listening to your dubs.

[@rowanfrost8489]

2024 here I am 🫣

[@geekyfandubs]

Nope, my voice is actually that deep. Alto, I am. Trust me, if I think I can sing a song properly in the original pitch, I will. I could have technically sung this in the original pitch, but my voice would have lost most of it's power.

[@dustanparker6096]

I think it sounds amazing

[@utpal4848]

Are you still alive?

[@JohtoBurglar]

your voice has been a lullaby for me since middle school (& the lyrics you chose are the only ones i will ever accept😂)

[@dectectivegoose]

This is still my absolute favourite english cover of again even 8 years after hearing it for the first time

[@abbacuspotter9232]

this disappeared for a while and i was soo damned sad because it is absolutely my favorite dub of this song

[@brokeneggz]

Wow 13 years on. Im so glad I have this saved in a playlist and can come back to it again and again. Its an amazing song and done so well.

[@ulquiorracifer221]

Oh my god, I remember when I first heard this cover five-six years ago. It still holds up! I love it still

[@Novamancer]

That's a lot of emotion you're shoing there Nabstablook.

[@Matt-xs7ih]

11 years later, im still here!

[@hayumii]

Oh my gosh. I remember when I was 6-10 and I would listen and sing along to this cover all day long. It was before I even knew what exactly anime was. I would listen to it on an app but I didn't know who covered it. All I knew was the title was Again. Then I fell in love with anime and wanted to listen to the song again, but couldn't find it. After all these years, I finally found it. I'm happy :D

[@AstronicGecko]

That was good i think i might watch that "Again"

[@rei-hz3wy]

I cant see ur pic very well, but is it Natsu, Edward Elric and a random charactor from attack on titan combined. If it is........... HAPPINESS. if its not........ oh well =^~^=

[@AstronicGecko]

Natsu+Armin+Ciel+Kirito+Edward here i'll zoom in thanks for pointing it out

[@AstronicGecko]

yeah there's no way you can see ciel's part (its the right eye)

[@rei-hz3wy]

Matty Dougherty yay~! Im happier now cuz I actually know all those characters lol.

[@AstronicGecko]

awesome

[@jomeoperkins9333]

The way you can stay clear-spoken and in tune, while still fitting English words into the original Japanese tempo, is nothing short of extraordinary. Kudos from the future. It still holds up.

[@AzayBae]

I love this song and this particular translation. The last verse hits home so hard on days where my depression pushes me too far. That “come on just one more time” helps somehow. I have no one to help me besides these songs most of the time. Thank you Geeky, I love your voice all these years later. Hope you’re doing well.

[@Rederister]

Amalee just released her fandub of this, but it just isn't as good as this one. I feel like the words flow better here and overall it sounds nicer. Makes me sad, since most people will look to hers as the definitive fandub when this has already been here for so long :( Same with the Attack on Titan fandub on this channel, it has better lyrics than other ones, but since Amalee and Natewantstobattle used another translation that's the one everyone uses. I mean, that one has the lines "There are beings that live off our fears, and their words are like knives as they play with our lives" WHAT WORDS? TITANS DON'T TAUNT PEOPLE WITH WORDS!! But I digress, I'll just try to direct everyone I can to this channel, and I'll keep coming back too.

[@69RedSeth]

My problem with this dub is that the singing isn't too spectacular, so overall I just prefer Lee's.

[@bobbycoghlan3184]

I agree with the comment above, Amalee's voice sounds much closer to Yui's then this cover

[@Rederister]

Well for me it's the lyrics that matter. if Amalee just used the same lyrics it'd be fine

[@Gogetaa]

"…Umm, do you see how I just ran out of words to sing?" • Amalee, "Crossing Field April Fools"

[@fullmetal_fangirl5721]

Rederister Cosplay! Have you seen Nikki~Gee's cover of this song it's really good. I hope you like it.

[@Wolftacoz]

The minute I found this I made an inhuman squeal. It's just amazing!

[@valerielmfao4818]

Same

[@shoopidyboop9697]

Her voice is just... yaaaassss! I'm gonna learn this off by heart and sing it so much my friends will know every word! NYAHAHAHAGAGAHAFAFAGAGAGGGAAAAA!! Oh gawd I should be the homunculus of annoyingness

[@emilyg.3542]

***** omg same!!!!

[@Caledoriv]

I still listen to your fandubs on a daily basis. So I want to say THANK YOU again

[@SUPERRRSAIYANNNNN]

Amazing cover; truly does justice for the greatest opening produced (for the greatest anime produced).

[@YouAreMySenpie]

omfg. This is so beautiful. AMAZING job. The feels are so overwhelming me at the moment.

[@DigsDugd]

geeky, you're the best lyricist in the fandub community, bar none. Whenever you come back, you'll have a fan waiting!

[@athenamuldrow1664]

Got no clue if you're still active on this account, but I just gotta say thank you for this song! This and Paper Moon are easily my favorite works of yours, and they still hold up against all the other cover singers to this day. Thank you!

[@ZoroTheBlue]

Amazing! This song felt like one big tongue twister, but you pulled it off perfectly!

[@pokey-ee4cv]

So I've just discovered this video and I've just listened to it eleven times in a row and it's still playing. I can't stop. No idea how "accurate" your translation is, but it fits the feeling and theme of the show it goes with so beautifully the way you've handled it. Never mind how fantastic it sounds just as a song. Thank you so much for this!

[@bunnybug7668]

This song saved me from a dark place 8years ago, and I still listen to it. Thank you for making this.

[@TheShizI47]

Alright, I'm finally able to watch this again! For some reason, the last time I tried to come watch this, it said it was blocked in my country, and I couldn't even see it on the channel. I don't know why I can suddenly watch it again, but I'm definitely not complaining. Anyway, this is still and always will be the best English cover of this song. I don't know whatever happened to you, Geeky, but, I only hope you're still alive and well somewhere.

[@Figgy5119]

A lot of English fandubs often have very forced lyrics that make really awful songs, but I love your versions of these songs because they work as real English songs!

[@CrypticSenpai]

Every few months I find myself just comming back to this channel and listening to a few of your songs for hours, but this one has genuinely made a difference in my life in terms of how I perceive the world and handle it. Thank you for this cover ^^

[@SydRainn]

10 years later and this is still my favorite version

[@jasonpak2996]

Finally a good one with a girl voice. Don't hate just sounds much much better with a girl singing than a boy

[@glaciemdraco]

Jason Pak Cause it was originally sung by one? lol

[@linalaufeyson1584]

+AngelOfDarkness Jeah but Yui really sounds more like a girl ^^

[@glaciemdraco]

Yui IS a girl -.-

[@linalaufeyson1584]

calm down I was confused and just thought about an other singer *sigh* my mistake ... i apologise ._. Meh ... Im a little derpy some times

[@glaciemdraco]

Its fine but you should know her gender if you've eer seen a life perfomance of hers.

[@bleachedpc]

this brings tears too my eyes awesome feels good to cry again

[@wystfulacedia3864]

...i don't cry. ...... ..... ...... ....okay that's a lie. i cried on angel beats :/.... BUT DAMN THAT WUZ SAD.... fma's cool... again was one of the first japanese songs i learnt :3

[@alliepierson6088]

You know, looking back, I think a lot of the reason I always liked (and still like, but not so much more than everyone else) Geeky's stuff so much more than other fandubbers is because Geeky's are more relatable - Geeky doen't have a perfect voice, and until a couple years ago they didn't have formal vocal training. And that was really encouraging to me, as someone who doesn't have a perfect voice even with vocal training. Sure, it's kinda monotone, but that doesn't mean that it's a bad dub! It just means that someone with a Real Person Voice did a dub and it was awesome! I feel like I grew more vocally by trying to sing along to fandubs than I ever did with actual training, just because I wasn't under any pressure to do well and it was okay for my voice to break. Geeky's a friggin' gift, okay? A gift. And I love all of their work even when the singing could be better because at least they tried. (sorry about all the "they" but I don't wanna just throw around "she" without knowing for sure)

[@Onyx3rr0r]

OMFG THIS MUST BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING I HAVE EVER HEARD! your voice. it's so beautiful, its vary delightful to listen too.

[@equinoxcosplay3939]

I'm really scared this cover is gonna disappear just like the other ones.

[@thenarcopath488]

2016 and still here!

[@silverknight2783]

I listened to this song on repeat when i was in middle school, which was 5 almost 6 years ago and now im back into fma and i remembered this cover and immediately came back to watch it this is still an amazing cover and im surprised i remembered the lyrics to this as well as i did lol

[@malachiharding8686]

Same! I remember singing this on the top of my lungs when I was in like sixth grade.

[@silverknight2783]

Its been 10 years, i will never stop coming back to this song 💕💕 seriously this is like a core memory for me lol also im back into fma again and also im very gay ✌️✌️

[@icecreamroxkndnumber]

this is so freakin amazing. This is why I love FMA, and thank you so much for using these exact words to dub it to english.

[@mayulee1923]

It’s 2019, yet I still listen to this and it moves me to tears. Idk why but this song and your voice combined are just so powerful I cannot hold my tears back ♥️

[@aliciagregoire9971]

2020 baby

[@lightrowe]

This key works better with an english dub at the least.

[@thunderlightning49]

Wow, am I glad I stumbled up on this cover. And here I didn't think there was a decent English cover of this song. I usually really like all the English covers from AmaLee, but, honestly, I didn't really feel anything with her cover of this song (Sorry, Amanda). This cover, however, I really felt something, all the way to the deepest caverns of my very soul...

[@RansomSubject_]

This should play for the English dubbed anime, seriously. 10 years later and if i listen to the original, i still hear your lyrics.

[@CruzaComplex]

I love it when wandering through countless youtube links pays off. Fantastic work. Subscribed.

[@TheWalkingGamers5]

Love both versions but actually hearing and understanding what they are saying hits a little deeper than reading it. Just saying.

[@andrewsylvester3728]

TheWalkingGamers5 You could say that "again"

[@davidjeter9999]

i love her voice

[@Edward-Not-Elric]

You have the voice of a goddess, please never stop making these kickass fan dubs!

[@waterdragon7771]

I absolutely love your voice and how it goes with this song. I listen to this at least once a day going to work and it really pumps me up. Thanks for sharing your talent!

[@riftcutter]

Original is good, but I'm not fluent in japanese so you dont get the full emotion in the song, this cover was good, but the second version with better music, absolutely amazing! got me to sub :)

[@SonicSSpeed000]

I love this one! Yet I cant decide whether this or Nate Wants To Battle is more accurate/a better dub

[@brendanblack4455]

I like Nate's better

[@thetwirens9518]

This is amazing! Thank you so much for this!

[@elenasadiea3772]

Hey, i just want to let you know that you are part of my childhood. When internet was hard to reach, i downloaded all your videos and play it on repeat on the countryside. I will download it again and show to the younger generations

[@raptorjesus5451]

there is a guy who reuploaded this again but sped up claiming it is his

[@valerielmfao4818]

Where is it

[@je_ss]

Shad Shade look up "again by yui english" in the youtube search bar, and it'll be the first link that comes up

[@je_ss]

AngryMonkeyArmy yes... they did....

[@je_ss]

AngryMonkeyArmy oh ok, but it still is re-uploaded and sped up. i didnt kno there was credit though

[@wystfulacedia3864]

know whats funny? there was a girl who stole this from geeky, and i didn't klnow who she was, but when i was watching the video, i saw geekys name, and i looked at her profile, and thats how i was introduced to her fandubs XD stealing bad, but id nprobably never had gotten into fandubs if i hadnt watched the faker XD....meh, geekys singings worth it tho

[@meladi1772]

I don't know how, but the japaness version is easier for my to sing with

[@SynfulAvarice]

because the words are easier to sound out more quickly.

[@meladi1772]

or maybe because I have heard the song a little too much XP

[@FlareDarkStormGem]

meladi1 or both

[@sakuranbochanko]

meladi1 or maybe because the japanese version is just alot better

[@zuzu6864]

Same

[@SpecSM87]

This is honestly the greatest fandub I have ever heard

[@Silverhawkiscool]

Wow, this video gave me so many chills. You have some real talent!

[@ichangedmyname1860]

I may not say it much, But I know that I make you worry all the time Back then you always could accept the things I'd done And you're still the same today so I'll try not to burden you But try to realize that I have closed my eyes Just because the world is too harsh And I'm willing to blind myself Sometimes I wonder if I should sing this part to my Mom.

[@greywest3555]

I know today is my mom birthday and I sang it to her and she started to cry

[@faithvowell5459]

+Grey West That's really sweet.

[@kyleashby882]

This is the best fan dub of this song ever no offense Caleb hyles

[@iannoelc2123]

I was about to write my own English cover to this song, but you beat me to it and I love it. It's awesome. Plus the key shift you did actually puts it in my voice range. Nice job.

[@iloveDUKE794]

THIS WAS SO IMPRESSIVE. and I never realized how beautiful that lyrics were very well done.

[@MrDestroyedSoulx]

Is there any chance you'll do more of these from FMA? I'd like to hear you do one of the openings from the original FMA. My favorite was Rewrite :) If you'd make an english cover of that I'd be really happy :)

[@Virofx]

I Prefer The Original By Yui But I Still Love This Cover

[@Futurestarra]

This. Is. So. AWESOME. Maybe the best fandub I've heard of any song.

[@ShiroHoshi]

Wait why was i unsubed to this person? i love this persons work D:

[@shoopidyboop9697]

Yea, WHY?

[@eyeofthetyger8504]

Intro could have a better tone but still a good song.

[@kaydenbarron5331]

That was exactly what I was thinking

[@nichanrera47]

2023, though I usually listen to AmaLee but I still love your Again version the most because the it was the first version I ever heard. Love your dynamic vocal and beautiful lyrics.

[@gittawat6986]

this is absolutely fantastic and your Original Key ver is way more fantastic.

[@darunzahn69]

This song gives me such feels... Well done and hurrah for more please!

[@NotetoTasha]

omg, this is amazing, you're such a good singer!!! sent shivers down my spine!!!!!

[@gabrielachocano4307]

OMG.This is just amazing

[@NuisanceFeFe]

You pulled this off wonderfully

[@Drenara96]

Best english fandub of this song I've ever heard :D

[@IcyTheKid]

I like how the echoes in the back go well with your singing X3

[@Darter854]

I think I'm going to commit this dub to memory. I love the lyrics. I love the vocals--I really need to download this now--and I love the song in general. The original was awesome, but, I am in love with your version. It's beautiful. You have some amazing talent.

[@PrinceKheldar25]

Very well done! I like the fact that it was down keyed, it added more feeling to it I think.

[@SuperDizzy12]

Oh man, this was very well done. Excellent job!

[@KittyKingCool]

i've been trying to find the original fadub by you. this is great! thanks!

[@iwantcandy2]

Wow. I honestly can't decide which version I like better, this one or the one in the original key. Both are very good. You sing those lyrics so fast, but it's still so clear!

[@codegeassfreak123]

you are the best fandubber that i have ever heard!!!!!!!

[@livinglavidageeky2114]

Oh. My. God. Your voice is awesome! This is amazing!

[@FagXarT]

thank you so much for coming back ^w^

[@missyfox21]

This sounds really good! :D And this is my favorite FMA:B theme song. Thanks for posting!

[@jplinkgothinuyasha1741]

I need this right now .thank you!!

[@jeroujoestar]

Your voice is really beautiful! of all the FBAB fandubs i've heard this is the best.

[@FanyLI]

This has to be the best english cover of this song, just amazing ♡

[@Lgebran]

i used to listen to this all the time when i watched fma for the first time 10 years ago. now i just finished rewatching the series and it's still in my head :)

[@julialait5021]

This was my opening of both series...and now i get the feels of it and how it fits LOVE the song LOVE the dub

[@aimeetsuchiya7098]

Thanks so much!!!! I really love this song!

[@raspberris]

This is amazing! When I tried to sing along with you, I realized on how hard it must have been to sing this! You're genius! -faves-

[@alisterholmes9763]

she's actually incredible, a band or singer relying on looks turns out like justin bieber and one direction, and the whole fact that what they are is based on their looks rather than their songs. this girl should be hired as the actual singer for the english dubs of songs, love her

[@rivasdanyel]

your voice is amazing!!!and your able to keep up with the song like you were singing the original version you put my singing to shame lol pleasre make more of these awesome fandubs!

[@hylia282]

I listen to this song all of the time, you have the best voice and i love the lyrics! your amazing!

[@ArrThereBePirates]

Wow, just freaking wow! Awesome job!

[@kilala813]

I wish this had more views. :( If this truely IS the original, you deserve it. Such an amazing voice.

Your voice is absolutely beautiful! Keep singing!
