FANTASY (Romanji)Lyrics: Shou
Music: Alice Nine.
shishiza wa mata matataite kono chi ni namida wo ataeta
ano hi kara kono senaka wa katahane wo nakushita mama
yoru ga ake hoshiboshi kara no kioku wa usureteyuku
kono sora mo kono uta mo naze darou?
iro wo nakushi oto wo nakushi riaru janai
kimi no yume wa boku wo tsutsumi hoshi ni natte naritsuzuketeiru
hoshizora wa mata matataite kono chi wa namida wo tataete
kaketa toki wa hikari wo hanachi kimi no inai kono sekai wa tensou
kimi no sei dayo mune ga itamu no wa
hahen wa ima mo sasatte
kono hana mo, ano tori mo, kaze mo, tsuki mo, toki wo tomete
me wo tojite mane wo shite mo munashikute
hai ni natta kimi wa totemo chiisakatta
wakaranai yo kono sekai wa kurutteita darou? yasuraka ni aa
hoshizora wa mata matataite kono chi wa namida wo tataete
kaketa toki wa hikari wo hanachi kimi no inai kono sekai wa tensou
doredake tatsu darou, hoshi ga nagarete kara soshite kokode, kakinarasu darou kimi
no kureta kono omoi wa bien
ano hi kara kono senaka wa katahane wo nakushita mama
FANTASY (English)
The constellation of Leo is twinkling again, bestowing this earth with tears
From that day onwards, this back has one sides wing
The day dawns, memories from the stars fade away
Even this sky, even this song, why?
Losing colour, losing sound, they are not real
Your dream enfolds me, it becomes a star that goes on resonating
The starry sky is twinkling again, this earth is exalted with tears
The galloping time gives out light, this world without you is Fantasy
Because of you, my heart is hurting
The splinters are still lodged there
Even this flower, even that bird, even the wind, even the moon; it stops time
Even if I close my eyes and make-believe, its no use
You turned into ash, became so small
I don't understand, has this world gone mad? Peacefully, aaah
The starry sky is twinkling again, this earth is exalted with tears
The galloping time gives out light, this world without you is Fantasy
How much time will pass, because the stars are falling
So here, thrumming, the affections you had given me are forever
From that day onwards, this back has lost one sides wing...
Comments on Fantasy song
Sho: A long time ago, a friend of mine had tragically passed away, and it was not possible for me to cope with it so easily. I came up with the melody and the lyrics for "Fantasy" when I was struggling to come to terms with the loss. Also, Hiroto was inspired by how the stars fade away from the sky at dawn when he wrote the music, and I tried to express that image as a poem. I also did a lot of thinking about how my feelings and thoughts continued to change over time. Basically, I worked hard at night when I was able to focus.
Hiroto: I wrote the music for "Fantasy" when I was outside at night, looking up at the stars. During the arrangement, I simply followed my feelings.
Tora: Inspirations always come when I am in the middle of doing something of no importance.
Saga: Everything will be OK as long as I come up with one phrase.
Nao: I arranged them by imagining the world view of each song.
