[@ihap5180]

I love these lyrics. I'm not too familiar with Slayer or Guilty Gear, but what i get from the lyrics is that bad things will happen, but good things will follow. Having easy happiness isn't worth it and the journey will make that happiness so much better. Life isn't a set path, it's the journey itself. If you cant find a motivation to move on in life, you need to surround yourself in precious things. I might be looking way too deep into this.

[@HelloGirKitty91]

Honestly this is an appropriate interpretation of this song 🎵

[@siliswest498]

Basically just Chipp’s theme but jazzy

[@AJAlkaline]

"I might be looking too deep into this" - impossible for a Daisuke song

[@MrL0WEL]

Slayer’s been alive for so long that at this point (and given how powerful and durable he is) it doesn’t seem likely that he’ll ever die. Instead of reflecting on how he’ll persist in the world after all that he cherishes disappears, he simply chooses to enjoy the present with good company and not fuss over the future.

[@kildeer]

"I might be looking too deep into this" the "duhhh maybe the curtains are just blue???" bs has robbed a generation of sincere confident analysis you're not looking too deep into it!!! the lyrics are almost beating us over the head with these messages! be confident in your thoughts!

[@RandomPerson-by1hr]

This is by far the most accurate sounding lyrics of all the other lyrics i've read, kudos for somehow being able to decypher those lmao

[@GamingCreed47]

Not to mention how fast they did it! It hasn't even been a day and it's already been deciphered.

[@aaronruinslives]

@@GamingCreed47i like the interpretation of the lyrics that goes: “Home is someone’s, bedtime story” Instead of the heartbeat stopper line as it feels a little random but knowing daisuke it could totally be the lyrics

[@DragonB001]

@@aaronruinslives i feel like both, heartbeat stopper and bedtime story is refering to slayer as he is a vampire

[@babytricep437]

@@aaronruinslivesI really like that video’s “In eternity, I get used to it” since it’s not like slayer’s dying anytime soon

[@alpha-tomahawk532]

Then cloud drop made his debut... and now i'm just confused how both there's diffirent lyrics in the track depending from who you hear it, daisuke what witchcraft is this?

[@smashscrubzone4712]

The friend that's being referenced is Sol, " a platinum knife with a fire glow" and his eyes don't shine because at the time of meeting Slayer, did not intact have those "precious things"

[@evantheilman2751]

I believe it's Slayer that gave him the name "Sol", since Frederick's passion was like the sun to him.

[@Onfelidoffed]

Well I think what the his eyes don't shine lyrics I think it also means to zato

[@Frost500-e3i]

@@evantheilman2751Oh that’s canon. Slayer gave him the name Sol Badguy

[@Cheezy701]

I thought that the second verse referred to Nagoriyuki, with the "but his eyes did not shine" part referencing how he no longer feels the thrill of battle due to him becoming immortal

[@Onfelidoffed]

@@Cheezy701 but at the same time I still think it's referring to Zato

WE ARE GETTING A UNIVERSAL WITH THIS ONE !!!

[@sissorman6818]

I love that while most of Strive's themes are about describing a character's motivations, growth or backstory, Slayer's is comparatively more simple, because he doesn't need any more depth, he already completed his growth and hit his level cap centuries ago He's singing this to encourage you and _your_ journey

[@jondeiconic2552]

Mr.dandy himself acknowledge his own theme

[@BraveFrontierRemeberer]

Coolest thing is he’s a Nobel assassin who the amount of people who are equal to or are stronger then him can be counted on 1 hand

[@boxtupos7718]

[@masonwhite3698]

That timed finger snap at 0:34 is unbelievably clean.

[@WeDeserveWorldPeace]

WE ARE SO BACK!

[@TyDreacon]

I always hear "detour" as "tea time". But this feels like the most accurate lyrics I've seen so far! Well done on that and the production quality, too!

[@EripmavsDYraid]

I hear "Essential design" instead of "sad, short, detour." It makes sense, considering the previous lyric. "A happy ending is just essential design." In addition, I hear "Hardly the stuff of bedtime stories" and not "Heartbeat stopper." TL;DR: It sounds like it's saying "A heart turning into stone is not something you hear in a bedtime story, but a happy ending is crucial to it."

[@someunimportantguy]

I think it might be "hardly the stuff for a bedtime story", as it sounds like he's not using plural" stories" from what I can hear. Just speculation on my part how it would fit in English. I think you are right about the "essential design" part though. I was thinking "sideshow teatime" instead "sad short detour" but yours sounds better

[@Nobody-qn7zx]

Yeah, me too. Felt like I was crazy when no one said it sounded like "tea time".

[@mallow2429]

I hear “a sad short detour” as “a snapshot in time”

[@sprite1172]

​@@mallow2429 That has to be it.

[@xdj2a2]

Dandyism is BACK LETS GO!!!! 1:42 Nice touch with the transitions

[@mallow2429]

People think he says “a sad short detour” yet i cant help but hear “a snapshot in time”. Also i think it just fits better.

[@CONFINEX]

I hear “slap shot in time.” It has similar meaning so I’m with you bro.

[@coomcharger6105]

​@@CONFINEX Another video put that as the lyric too

[@Helldragon789]

Oh Heartbeat Stopper huh? Thats interesting most of the people ive talked to think its closer to "Hardly someone's bed time story" but heartbeat Stopper does seem to flow a bit nicer! Fantastic job!

[@JoE_the_InFernO]

I thought it was "Home is Someone's, Bedtime Story"

[@aaronruinslives]

@@JoE_the_InFernOhonestly I like this way more

[@levelynn3853]

I've heard ''Hardly a somber, bedtime story'' and ''Home is someone's, bedtime story''. Home is by far my favourite, but I also feel like after the second verse was released it's way less likely

[@m00lm00lz]

Dawg I thought it was and I qoute "happy supper"

[@somethingsomewhere4854]

My two cents is either "Hardly the stuff of," or "Hardly a proper," Id also like to put forth for the second verse, "My pride and joy Carries forth a plate Holding a platinum knife With soft fine clothes / Sapphire glow / i actually like the one in the video"

[@Umbrox-57]

New GG song means it’s time to loop it for 2-3 days until it’s buried in my head like the rest.

[@norn9747]

“My friend enjoyed carries for the plate, Holding a platinum knife with soft fire glow But his eyes did not shine What he needs is a lead can’t have it overthrow” Is he talking about Nagoriyuki?..

[@henrylopez8419]

I think he was talking about Sol, because when they meet each other Sol was in the part of the cicle of “think about wife”

[@Ronin9802]

You made this so quickly I am both shocked and at the same time dancing. Very dandy job!

[@ali_altoxin]

My controversial opinion: I actually think, that this song is a little less complex, less complicated then some of the last GGS songs (The Circle, The Gravity and Symphony was phenomenal, very complex progrock with extremely unusual harmony, instruments and lyrics). But I do not think that Ups and Downs a less interesting or smith, I really love this song too from the very first moment, from trailer. It's just doesn't have any specific bridges, strange and cool instruments (organ, sitar, shamisen e.t.c), chanting, screaming, different songs in one or something more unusual, No, it's just a very dandy, rock, classic/jazzy and actually happy song. I guess there is no need for overcomplicated theme for Slayer and Sharon, because they are based dandy Vampire-Husband and a Universal-error Wife. There is no problems, difficult plans or dilemmas in Slayer's mind (I guess), he is just chilingl with his "lovely wife", and so is he's song - chill, lovely, rock, jazzy and . . . 𝓭𝓪𝓷𝓭𝔂.....

[@christianvazquez1835]

The message is clear, Slayer has lived many, many years to come to the conclusion about not complicating his life, a direct message to enjoy the things that surround us and offers life, whether good or bad. Dandy~~~

My brother in Christ that Transition at 0:47 was so sick 🫡

[@TheLoneAlpaca]

i heard it as "happy ending in just a sad shot in time" meaning that while we crave a happy "ending" its only happy and an ending when viewed within a sad section of someones life, and given an end to that section. Since life is a journey (not a destination) we should enjoy the ride instead of imagining a happy ending is going to come and then last forever.

[@TheLoneAlpaca]

also heard "supporting role" but either way, great editing! im hype to play this guy

[@nicolasrojas7788]

I'm currently in a down part of the journey, but when i heart the part about "the life is a journey" put me a smile on my face and motivates me more

[@limbobilbo8743]

I like to view the first verse as Zato (who literally can’t appreciate the sunrise and we know from his song feels like everything in monotonous) and the second as Nagoriyuki (who is trying to find his purpose and fights for his meals) With the chorus being Slayer’s advice for the two followers of dandyism to get over their slumps

[@lenkaryukashira1041]

Just thank you so much for that work man. It's PERFECT. No. It's DANDY!

[@PowerAids]

I like how slayer's moveset is upsetting thoughts and fears of life, "IT'S TOO LATE!" is something alot of people say in their heads and think "Bump ahead" is the stress of having to deal with a difficult situation that will come in the future (having to get over a family member's death) Pilebunker is destructive feelings piling up and making your mind a sorta bunker for those feelings and master's hammer is the hopelessness of working without rest for someone else so you can survive, ironically, slayer is an immortal upper class vampire with an immortal wife, so none of those apply to him.

[@evilded2]

I'm sorry to say, this is in fact peak, I'm afraid

[@areyousureaboutthat8124]

Even if they aren't the real lyrics "heartbeat stopper" goes extremely hard and fits the song really well.

[@ultimateo621]

you made this so fast I dont even have to replace another version of the song with the orangey version on my playlist

[@BloodfruitXan]

After listening closer "a sad short detour" sounds more like "a sad short tea time"

[@Nobody_91997]

THE ACTUAL LYRICS: The darkness is pierced by the morning sun, The light is beautiful, I am mesmerized by it. But soon I can't open my eyes, but eventually, I get used to it. Surrounded by precious things, The heart turns into stone. Hardly the stuff of bedtime stories, A happy ending is just a snapshot in time. Life is a journey, not a destination, Enjoy the ride, with ups and downs. My friend enjoys courage for the plate, Holding a platinum knife, with soft fire glow. But his eyes did not shine, that he missed is that he cannot be overthrown. Surrounded by precious things, My heart turns into stone. Hardly the stuff of bedtime stories A happy ending is just a snapshot in time. Life is a journey, not a destination, Enjoy the ride, with ups and downs. Hardly the stuff of bedtime stories, Sometimes you have to play supporting roles. But what matters is that your eyes shine in the moment. Hardly the stuff of bedtime stories, A happy ending is just a snapshot in time. Life is a journey, not a destination, Enjoy the ride, with ups and downs.

[@MagikalKrabical]

"Happy Ending in just a Sad Short Detour" will be the better line in my eyes

[@Ramonaqueenofhell]

But like- it makes no sense with the rest of the song “A happy ending is just a snapshot in time” makes a lot more sense with the message of the song

[@Frank-fh2qn]

So it sounds like he wants the person he's talking to to focus on having fun with him and not think about him eating them when he's done with them.

[@smuggles2124]

This is so good, great job putting this together

[@JoE_the_InFernO]

Compared to other GGST songs, it's pretty short. Which is the only negative I can give it. Otherwise, it's great. (Edit) I just fact checked myself just to make sure. It is actually the shortest song in Strive so far. Before, it was May's theme. Now she has a solid 20 seconds or more compared to Slayer's. (Edit) I was wrong, I had to double check. Sol's theme was the shortest before Slayer's. Now having beaten Slayer by 8 seconds. Making Slayer's theme the shortest out of all the Strive songs so far. The oder of top three shortest are 1 Slayer's 2 Sol's And 3 May's

[@Hababalooo]

It was actually Sol's theme who was the shortest before Ups And Downs A Fun Fact is that Ups And Downs is the third shortest vocal behind Birthday Train and Ride The Fire
