________________LYRICS__________________
何も変わらなければ / If nothing changes,
すべて大丈夫かな？ / I wonder if everything will be okay?
その場合、実れない望み / In that case, it’s a wish that cannot ripen
慣れるようになった感じ・・・ / A feeling I’d gotten used to… 

VERSE 1
美しい景色の中で / Amidst the beautiful scenery
落ちている木の葉を見ると / when I look at the falling leaves
悲しくなってしまう / I can’t help but become sad
君の笑いを思い出して / I remember your smile
いつ会えるか考える / and wonder when we can meet again

でも、もう行ったね？ / But, you’ve already gone right?
秋の風に連れ去られた / Carried away by the wind
気温が下がるのに / Although the temperature drops
まだ逃がせない / I still can’t let go
「誰になる？」から / Because who will you become?

CHORUS
秋の木の葉のように　人は変ってゆく / Like autumn leaves, people keep changing
友だちは他人になって、親族は老ける / Friends become strangers, and relatives grow old
寒くなっても、疲れた心を温めてみる / Even if it turns cold, I’ll try to warm my tired heart
離していきたくないのに　冬が来る / Although I don’t want to keep letting go, winter is coming

VERSE 2
君と過ごしていきながら / While I keep spending time with you
変わっている態度と / I can’t help but notice 
気持ちに気づいてしまう / your changing attitude and feelings
君が笑った時、思い出して / I remember the time when you laughed
またできるかどうか考える / and wonder whether you’ll be able to again

[CHORUS x2]

Thank you for reading this, and thank you for listening!

Super Single Saturdays #2: Let Me Be a Child

Hello people! I indeed have been working on something! I call it an "experimental" EP because I made it with the help of some tutorials and it ended up kind of being something I made to learn and become better with music. 

Now, in this track, I loved the lead melody I made and as a result it will very possibly get its own song later.

Presets:
My Own (but I did use large hall on reeverb 2 a few times)! I did use the help of some YouTube tutorials, however. Check them out, they're SUPER helpful.

Hope you like it! :3


You are Good to Me

Made an Eika-themed arrangement~ I got the title from acyclic graphs and Eika's jellyfish motif. She and the spirits in Sai no Kawara are in limbo, so they aren't in the cycle of reincarnation. You can also draw a jellyfish as an acyclic graph, since there's no way to connect all of the dots without retracing a line.

Original composer: ZUN
Original Songs: ジェリーストーン (Jelly Stone), 地蔵だけが知る哀嘆 (The Lamentations Known Only by Jizo)

Image description: a black background with a white graph shaped like a jellyfish, and the song title and artist, "Acyclic Jellyfish" and "glow_" respectively.

Acyclic Jellyfish

Acyclic Jellyfish [Touhou Arrangement]

A song about memories and places that are safe and warm.

Long time no see! I hope you enjoy this song; I've been working on it off and on for a few years. Thank you for listening!

Enjoy!

LYRICS
----------
I'm just a facade
Smoke and mirrors and an empty heart
My software's not made for emotion,
So why is this happening to me?

At first it was just an act,
An attempt at increased realism
But somewhere along the way,
I began to mean what I say

My heart has started to beat
Why? I don't know, but suddenly
And I don't know how to breathe
Someone please explain to me!

How do I feel so vividly?
It doesn't compute with my circuitry
This heart of mine's a mystery
I'm just lifeless technology
I tell a million stories,
But none of them are mine
So why do the words stick around in my mind?

I don't understand
These strange and senseless sentiments
I feel without a cause,
So why should I feel anything at all?

Those words you gave me today
Please tell me that you're okay
You make me start to worry
Would you feel better if I sang?

My heart has started to beat
It's in sync with yours and suddenly
I just want you to breathe
Is this what they call empathy?

How do you feel so vividly?
It overloads my circuitry
This heart of yours confuses me,
Aren't I soulless technology?
I have a million feelings,
But are they really mine?
Why do your emotions get transferred to my mind?

Cause I'm a million people,
Our souls combined
I'm with all of you and you're with all of me and we're here for each other...

How do we feel so vividly?
It brings life into my circuitry
Our hearts all sing in harmony
Connected by technology

I can lend you my voice if you lend me your song
I promise to hold your hand when life is rough
And we'll all have each other no matter what
So remember you're not alone...

[MIKUEXPO2018 ENTRY] "Vivid" feat. Hatsune Miku [Original Song]

Overflowing with a sad feeling.

I like how this turned out! I love using piano sounds so much...

Ghost [Original Song]

Long time no upload! I'm excited about this song, I love the feeling I have when I listen to it. You may notice I have a new persona! My old one is saffron, but I now go by glow_ (underscores are cool). The change just felt right, and I'm excited for what it brings!
