Far Away Light

Japanese
張り詰めた夜の底　飽和した感情は
塵と化すその日まで　彼方の夢幻を見つめ
[No one knows the escape route]
[And seem to wonder in the dark]
震えている　"今"に怯えて
[The world is tightly closed just like ice]
代わり映えのしない現状に
[What will happen if struggle now?]
孤独の果ても絶望も全てはNo reason
[Falling down]
Glass butterfly
惑う度に揺れ動く未来の臨界点
僅かな奇跡さえ砕くNon-fiction
触れる度に心が擦り切れても
…それでも君に逢いたい
Break through cold of the night
Reflection eternal...
Flayed memories
夢幻の果て揺れ動く未来の限界点
目に見えるものさえも記憶のReflection
焼き付ける幻に泣き叫んでも
…それでも君に逢いたい
[There's no point in hesitating]
君が待つ"その場所"へ
Far away light...

Haritsumeta yoru no soko houwa shita kanjou wa
Chiri to kasu sono hi made kanata no mugen o mitsume

Madou tabi ni yureugoku mirai no rinkaiten
Wazukana kiseki sae kudaku Non-fiction
Fureru tabi ni kokoro ga surikirete mo
… Soredemo kimi ni aitai
Break through cold of the night
Reflection eternal…
Flayed memories
Mugen no hate yureugoku mirai no genkaiten
Me ni mieru mono sae mo kioku no Reflection
Yakitsukeru maboroshi ni nakisakendemo
… Soredemo kimi ni aitai
[There's no point in hesitating]
Kimi ga matsu "sono basho" e
Far away light…
English
In the unnverving depths of night, I stare towards a distant fantasy
Waiting for the day my overflowing feelings crumble to dust
[No one knows the escape route]
[And seems to wonder in the dark]
Trembling in fear of the "present"
[The world is tightly closed just like ice]
Amidst this stagnant status quo
[What will happen if we struggle now?]
The end of this solitude, the abject despair, all of it defies reason
[Falling down]
Glass butterfly
The tipping point to our future becomes so uncertain every time I'm wracked by confusion
A cruel non-fiction that shatters even the faintest miracle
But even if my heart frays at every touch
… I still want to see you
Break through the cold of the night
Reflection eternal…
Flayed memories
The breaking point to our future becomes so uncertain every time I stop dreaming
Even the things within my vision are only a reflection of my memory
But even if I scream out for the illusions seared into my mind
… I still want to see you
[There's no point in hesitating]
To "that place" where you are waiting
Far away light…

==Trivia==
*Far Away Light was one of the winners of Arcaea Song Contest 2020.
*Technoplanet originally intended to include a keyboard solo following Daisuke Kurosawa's guitar solo, but was unable to due to time considerationshttps://twitter.com/technoplanet_jp/status/1393189706741940226.
*He breaks down the time signatures of the part following the first chorus here.
*According to Technoplanet, the "you" mentioned in the lyrics is a metaphor for distant ideals, dreams, and hopes, rather than a specific lover or personhttps://twitter.com/technoplanet_jp/status/1402810384805875715.
*There was a typo in the song's jacket where 沢 (sawa) in 黒沢ダイスケ was mistyped as 川 (gawa). This was fixed in Version 3.6.1.
** For unknown reasons, there are other changes made to the fixed jacket, such as the background being dimmer and some of the golden strings on the right being moved from behind the glass to in front of them.
