claws at my face......... i thought i would be done with this like 6 hours ago and yet again i spent way way too long trying to rerecord and edit minor timing mistakes (in the end i pretty much went back to the original anyways) screams
Thoughts!!! -
The hardest part: GOD this range was bad for me. I am stressing so much about the voices not sounding distinct enough... But I've recorded like 3 times already at this point, if this is all I can do, then so be it :') please be kind haha
My favorite part: how many rhymes/assonances I was able to cram in in that last stanza B) Took me like a solid month of struggling but once the words fit it was like... /nice/ B) Also miku's laugh was intimidating but i did it (y)
Hope you enjoy!!! Thank you for watching!!

lyrics: (Please ask me before using)
At the furthest boundaries of this false paradise
Far below, and still lower - at the bottom of the earth
Here I sing these prayers that will never be heard
Here I sing for the rest of my life
From a history unbound from its future days
To the sound of my voice, like an anchor in the sea
Sinking deeper in a past that's bound to repeat
I surrender myself to this fate
Not knowing anything - only the song I sing
All my life has passed just like a dream
A prayer for the sun
A prayer for the rain
Requiem for our happier days
If within our lives
We find this paradise
It is said we’ll be blessed with eternal peace
But the warmth that’s been guiding me
Is still out of reach…
“Please… continue to sing forever.”
Underneath our dying earth, knowing naught of reality
I pray and sing these words to fulfill my destiny-
And I hear all the voices, soft in their sleep,
who are lost in the years gone by
So in spite of my fears I will put on a smile beneath my tears
As I sink into my despair
Towards the horizon of this bleak paradise
I set out on a journey to find what I have lost
Wandering these endless roads alone in my thoughts
Will I wander the rest of my life?
From a history cut off with nothing to tell
I am grasping at shadows in search of stolen days
But the voice inside my heart has still yet to fade
Bringing sorrow I cannot dispel
No matter how I try to pray to this paradise
It would seem my wish will never reach
Mingling with the cries of all the years gone by
And again, it dies off never to be seen…
All that I wish right now
Is just to hear the sound
Of your voice…so I know that you’re still okay
Wait for me, ‘cause no matter the pain - I will find a way
"I will keep singing"
“I will keep fighting on"
All the rumblings of the earth aren’t enough to deter me
It is time these useless words be put to sleep in their legacy
If we’re still held apart after coming this far then I fear that I must decide
to dismantle with my own hands this lying paradise
For once, for all - for your life.
“Sing for us.”
So I stay right here to pray to protect the present
-- So I fight against our fate in search of the end
So that one day we may find a more radiant world lit by everyone’s smiles...
-- So that you won’t have to cry with no one by your side
And I sing this song of hope leading to a brighter tomorrow
-- And I hear a song of woe shadowing our past in sorrow
Dedicating all my life and my voice with its vigor to wind I will give where my prayers pervade for rest of all time...
-- Sentencing your precious life and your voice to a rigor I cannot forgive washed away by the rain for the rest of all time...
"It repeats again."
Every voice that’s sung til now will encounter the light within our hearts and lead into the dark
Where it lives within history as just one more mark at this time
At this time the endless world comes alive and its heart beat
Resounds within our souls like a chime that cites the finale...
Just as everything ends, it comes back again
Beginning to grow anew
As my hope is revived,
To the paradise of light and shadow
I beg of you--

This has to be the best english cover I've ever heard.

[@linwong1494]

I searched "synchronicity paradise of light and shadow cover" about ten times before this cover appeared. What the heck youtube??? I had no idea you made a cover for this song and it makes me happy that you did!

I mute notifications from other channels so they won't bother the notification I'd receive from this channel and KZbin still failed to notice me!! 😭 On another side, I'm in love with this cover ❤️

[@SirHamnet]
