So here it is! _____ 繋がる糸の様に Tsunagaru Ito no You ni Like Connected Threads 日本語 Romanized English 花が咲き誇る Hana ga saki hokoru The flowers are in full bloom 歪みの中漂う Hizumi no naka tadayou Drifting around in distortion 代わる代わる Kawaru kawaru Replacing, replacing また繰り返していく輪廻 Mata kurikaeshite iku rinne Repeating again in circulation 操り糸に引きずられるように Ayatsuri ito ni hikizurareru you ni Pulled like a marionette, 交わった線の上で踊るんだ Majiwatta sen no ue de odorunda Dancing from the intersecting threads 造られた全ては Tukurareta subete wa With everything built, 道化の戯れ Douke no tawamure The clown's play 欠けている Kaketeiru Is still missing 最初の歯車は Sais

チリヌルヲワカ / Chirinuruwowaka: 陰日向 / Double-Faced

Check out KOH3956's  awesome cover of this song!  _____ Title: 陰日向 / Kagehinata / Double-Faced Band: チリヌルヲワカ / Chirinuruwowaka Album: アヲアヲ / Awoawo Lyrics: ユウ / yuu Composition: ユウ / yuu Japanese lyrics:  http://petitlyrics.com/lyrics/2409582 _____ This song has some really interesting writing. There's a clever use of synonyms that sound similar, but have slightly different meanings all over this song. (隙間/狭間, 衝動/行動/鼓動) The song also uses the expressions 雲行き (Movement of the clouds) and 風向き (Direction of the wind) at different points in the song. Again, these are similar and theme, and are actually both metaphors for "the situation" or "the outlook of things". Finally, there's the part about becoming a shellfish.

It doesn't say much on the video, and despite the video having more than 100.000 views, there wasn't much information to find. The band members' names are in the description of the video and the channel has a video of Re:leaf's cover of Maroon 5's Sunday Morning . The keyboardist, Taeko, also has a Youtube Channel , with a few other Re:leaf videos. Other than that, it seems certain that this is the final song the band did, written to commemorate their time together. I also really liked the song, so I wanted to gather all I could find about the band here, including a translation of this song. My good friend helped me transcribe the lyrics of the song ♪(๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)♪
