Ignite Infinity

By: Annette Marie Cotrill

If one was meant for pain
for all to stay the same
for all to, here, remain
I'll take nothing in vain

It's you who made me see
the world has made me see
there is more that I can be
there is something more in me
there is something that I must be

A hope in my hand that's all I take with me
in the grey, everyday, it's hard to see
so I go on, even though it's long-shot
from how it was before

And what I dreamed all along
will never come so maybe there's something new
it cannot be the end of all that we know
a hole in the sky, an early good-bye
I know we can't let it end

Infinity

Let it fall upon the universe
feel the light, the might, the heroes again
let the dawn stand in all of us
everyone, everything, infinity

Ignite the wish to catch a star
and befriend the end, deep in the heart
heaven can wait, it's not over yet
there is more, more to be, to do

Maybe its time that was changed the way I am
now, with an eye for a way I didn't see
but I know only through a loss
that I've been given the hope that carries me

Every dream is gone
Just as a dune, fading away untold
it cannot be, that nothing can be done now
the blue in the sky, and the wonders alive
we can't let them take it away

Infinity

Let reign upon the universe
see the life, the love, the dreaming again
throw aside the lines dividing us
everyone, everything, Infinity

Behold the stars of the universe
see them shine and fall, and rise again
Never are ways ever easy and set
the more hurt, the more you'll know it's true

And what I dreamed all along
will never come so maybe there's something new
it cannot be the end of all that we know
a hole in the sky, an early good-bye
I know we can't let it end

Infinity

Let it fall upon the universe
feel the light, the might, the heroes again
let the dawn stand in all of us
everyone, everything, infinity

Ignite the wish to catch a star
and befriend the end, deep in the heart
heaven can wait, it's not over yet
there is more, more to be, to do
the more you'll know it's true

   

Here's the opening animation for Infinity with the short version of the song:

To be honest, when I first tested the demo and the song started to play, I was overwhelmed by this song and felt goose bumps all over my skin. That's one hell of a powerful song, I said. I really love this song but there are two things that kinda offset me a bit.

1. The line "more to be, to do" just sounds wrong to me. Maybe if it was "more for me to do" then it'll sound a bit better but I don't know.
2. The excessive use of the word "Infinity." Not only does the game's title and the song's title have that word, the lyrics is full of them! Don't even get me started on all the ingame terms that use the same word like Infinity Missions, Infinity Blast, Infinity Codes, etc.

In case the above article didn't  pique your interest, here's a picture of Nagisa and her very tight pants/stocking-thingy. I actually had to edit this image in Photoshop to make it look appropriate and safe for work.

Those pants sure are tight!
