【Touhou Lyrics】 Emotional Skyscraper ~ Cosmic Mind

/ 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…

It is said that Myouren's death was the original reason for Byakuren's fear of death, and prompted her to study magic in order to lengthen longetivity.

[@robert.vilkelis]

This is a song I come back to again, again, and again. You capture Byakuren's essence beautifully here. You've grasped and graced the heart what she stands for: its benevolence, its magic, and its hope for the future. Yet, you've also seized the hardship of being the champion of a dream: its improbability, its opposition, and its ensnarement in what already is. In honouring both the light and the night, your words strike with a heartful intensity. Over the years, I recall times when "Emotional Skyscraper ~ Cosmic Mind" started playing in my head. Often, it was just 'cuz I liked the song. Sometimes, it came up as I felt in touch with something meaningful in the moment. Other times, it emerged as inspiration and hope as I felt in the midst of struggle. Tonight was one of those nights - and I was drawn not just to the song, but to your lyrics. In her stand for what she believes in, I can see myself. I connect with my love for people, for uniting division and finding camaraderie among all. As you chant, "this world is filled with light, and surely there’s more to see," I connect with a boundless horizon that I wish to create. And yet, in seeing myself in her, I also recognise how I paint hardship in my life. The resistance, cynicism and resignation I see; the fear I find in myself as I look to live up to how people see me... ...and even as I sit here writing this comment, listening to the song in the background, what jumps out at me is something I never heard quite so strongly before: "faith, lead us never to fear these friends we cherish dear". What's present to me? To create a land of no borders, to "come together, the way that we were meant to be," it takes being able and willing to delved into ourselves and "break the bonds that seal it". What am I going to hold as I go back to my work? "We believe it is so, then it shall be so." Thank you for the gift you bring through music. You never know how far a few syllables may go.

[@exumbra1399]

The irony is that while Buddhism promotes the loss of desires and personal identity, Byakuren Hijiri chose physical immortality (by learning from Youkai) instead of choosing death+reincarnation and the potential Nirvana which Buddhism promises to those who have achieved perfection. I love Hijiri by the way. I'm just sad that her chosen faith is insufficient to reach either harmony or personal fulfillment. I would love to see the Youkai come into harmony with Humanity by realigning their core concepts with actual truth, but I doubt that Yukari and the other Sages would allow it without a fight.

that first "Hail to the treasure" bit goes unreasonably hard

[@CeruleanSeal]

Two years and 3 months. That is how long I have waited for this video. And each and every second I was patient, was more worth it than words could ever express. Honestly there were times I considered asking you if I could cover it 1st cause I was so eager, and always sang it myself. Even had 2:32-2:57 as my status on Skype for like half a year. But you've gotten so much better at singing since then (You can hit the high notes now!) created such a beautiful visual to go with it, and was able to execute 0:58- 1:09 (of which with my love of this song, was always worried about whenever reading the lyrics) and it's just... all around simply amazing. This is my favorite song out of the entirety of the Touhou series and I could never ask for a better rendition. You've brought me to chills, you've brought me to tears. Thank you so much for fulfilling that request I made all the way back in January 4th, 2015. This truly is my own treasure that I will cherish dear.

[@lyrica-live]

Geez... Talk about "many trials of our patience"; the song couldn't be any more fitting for you. I'm sometimes nervous about putting up WIPs, worrying about people being disappointed in waiting and then being underwhelmed by the eventual product. Like, I almost wish people didn't even think about me until I finished something, and evaluated it just from there, because the pressure of being thought about and waited on can be stressful. That said, then, I appreciate this kind of review a whole lot... to know that you can be there even through the waiting with positive thoughts... and I'm really glad it could make you happy in the end. If I remember correctly, you were also anticipating Eirin's theme, was it? Heh, see you in another two years maybe...~ But seriously, thank you so much for your support. ;v;

ALSO THOSE MYOUREN REFERENCES WHY MUST YOU HURT ME IN THIS WAY?

[@Kuroyami0Fukaikuro]

It's not just that Byakuren's peace would upset the balance of power in Gensokyo, though. Her ideology would literally make the Youkai go extinct. They need Humans to fear them in order to exist- otherwise they just stop existing. It's why the Youkai are mostly gone from the Outsode World- people stopped fearing and believing in the.

[@wessltov]

Kind of...the Great Hakurei Barrier warped the forgotten Youkai into Gensoukyo

[@Kuroyami0Fukaikuro]

Yes, because Gensokyo still remembers the Youkai and fears them. If that stopped, they'd go extinct just like in the Outside World.

[@wessltov]

The Youkai outside didn't die out, they were all teleported. If the gensoukyans forgot about Youkai, the barrier would weaken. But, just because humans wouldn't fear Youkai anymore, doesn't mean the barrier would be affected. It *is* the current method, yes, but they can live in harmony too, no?

[@Kuroyami0Fukaikuro]

Youkai outside did die out. The Yamabiko are a good example: when Science determined that Echoes where a physical and natural phenomenon, the Yamabiko began to die out and go extinct. Very few remain and they are an endangered species even within Gensokyo. Byakuren is a fool, and her vision of peace and harmony would only bring disaster to Gensokyo.

[@wessltov]

Here's a literal quote from the Touhou wiki: "However, the phenomenon of "spiriting away" can also cause objects and even living beings to slip through the border at random, particularly if they have started to be forgotten by the outside world. For instance the crested ibis started to become more common in Gensokyo after the Japanese variety were recognised as extinct, and paper started showing up more frequently with the rise of digital storage." And this doesn't just happen in error. Several inhabitants of Gensoukyo have direct roots in the outside world: "Even in modern times, it is still possible for youkai, gods and even entire locations (such as the Ruined Western Mansion, Scarlet Devil Mansion and Moriya Shrine) to pass through the border and enter Gensokyo."

[@razakeldrukata6502]

In a stark contrast to decline of youkai in the Outer World, if the proof of youkai existance was widely considered truth (Mabey by an outsider nation, propogated by that one) Via examples of a few rouge humans who may enter and leave gensokyo, would not the propogation of Youkai, even within that new, rouge nation, restart the spread of youkai? Lets take an example. Even if not directly fearing them (Due to human modernization and power balance and projection via armies) If Youkai were just taught to exist using gensokyo (Which may or may not be actually revealed by this group) as just fact, and bringing youkai back with them perhaps, weakened though they may be from the crossing, as examples (Mabey as a more extreme and comprehensive version of the Yumemi Plan), would this nation be able to, by brute force and a combination of science and belief, bring youkai into thier territory, and gods even, as physical phenomena? If so then would the raw belief of their existance by billions or millions, and their integration and propagation by this nation void the reason for existance of the gensokyan pocket dimension? Or would the nation be immediately ganged up on by Lunarians, the UN, and even the Gensokyans as a balance upsetter? This is assuming such a group of outsider humans devised the plan to become a nation for this reason, using youkai as thier primary backup for thier legitimacy.

[@LynxLunairetic]

I have to say I never really liked Cosmic Mind and I'm also not a huge fan of the background echo singing that overlaps the beautiful main melody vocals, but this is another amazing song you've done either way. Love all the work on your channel. c: I heard you'll never do stage themes, but once you've exhausted all the boss themes it would be MAGNIFICENT if you went on to the stage themes as well. I might as well just die and go to heaven once that happens. Still looking forward to any Touhou vocals you do regardless~

[@lyrica-live]

Heh, I appreciate the faith you have in me that I'll ever exhaust all the boss themes... But I do very much doubt that, and I don't like to look too far ahead of that huge backload I still have... Also, I've heard that from a couple people about background vocals; sorry about that. I agree in part because the whole main point of covering the original ZUN track, rather than an arrange, is to pay tribute to the foreground melody. It's just that when I get a specific (if sometimes amateurish) vision of how I want something to work, I'm a little too attached to it and feel as if it sounds too empty otherwise. So I often find a good way to justify it for myself-- I especially couldn't resist here where it felt like it evoked her followers heralding her like a saint and chanting with her. In any case, thank you for the support regardless.~

[@LynxLunairetic]

Well...yeah, true lol. There's like a million of them especially if you include PC-98 that almost no one cares about as well, also all the new games that ZUN comes up with. Still, you've done a lot of the "crucial" ones already so the remaining ones are more small fry than the Big Dons. :P I'm sure you'll do it eventually~ And for sure we'll love all of them. ;3 And yeah, I do understand regarding the background vocals. They just seem to drown out the main ones at some parts of the first half of the theme. I'm also a perfectionist when it comes to arranges of Touhou music (the closer to the original, the better) so I completely get that you wanted to emphasize the background melody as well since it's noticeable in the original. Still loving it regardless~ Amazing work.

[@Bloodiasfire]

Honestly, I really like the background vocals in this track. I don't think it would have worked for most of them, but it goes great with Byakuren's.

[@LynxLunairetic]

They're not that bad, just drown out the foreground in places which is a bit of a bummer.

900th like! But that's not the point, what I really want to ask is that may I use these lyrics. Now it is for fan-made project it's just not specifically Touhou related. I'm just curious if I can use the audio as well.

Yes, you can use it as long as you link back credit. ^^ Thank you for asking and for the 900th like!

I bet Miko's next ;3. None the less, I LOVED THE LYRICS. Byakuren is my second main in Touhou 14.5 after all (first being Koishi [waiting for her theme A LOT >:3])

MilesJA have you heard? She's working on Koishi now, with many others that we all anticipated~ go snoop around her tumblr, you'll find it under a /wip

Sadly, Koishi is still not in the list. Remilia is, though :/

[@snalefriend8691]

I thought she is :/ I just checked yesterday... She was there. Maybe she's next?
