Living Universe

By: Aimee Blackschleger & Tahirih W.

Wish (upon a star)
hope (to be again)
the one you find
when all is done and through

If all made a wish to save this star
would it be in vain?
So, much it holds, too dear to part
may ways see the light of answers

For all ways, once, just taken away
that one hope, all disappeared
So, none can break, nor brittle my heart
no, never again, until the end...

Phantasy stars in universe, (they shine on)
unravel the dark to light the world, (they shine on)
For all of the hearts who gave their all
Know that it shines because of you, (they shine on)

Phantasy stars in universe,(they light up)
shooting to bright the wishes true,(they light up)
Many a star in universe
but it's only the one with you, that I can see

Times have away to stray,
away to swoon what is sane
There is much to save, if love has a part
if to be, a flower, I'll be

When all had gone, it had seemed as end
but some how you reappeared
When nothing breathes a hope of a chance
still, even then, until the end...

Phantasy stars in universe, (they shine on)
filling the sky with lights afloat, (they shine on)
Many a fray to keep aglow
only to stand against it all, (they shine on)

Phantasy stars in universe,(they light up)
fighting to shine in eyes of you, (they light up)
Many a star in universe
still, if ever we are apart, you will find me

For all was, once, taken away
all had disappeared
without the hope I hold
I'm nothing to be
made fable in sorrow

When all had gone, I had seen the end
you somehow reappeared
without a heart, we're nothing at all
so make it love to save us all

Phantasy stars in universe, (they shine on)
unravel the dark to light the world, (they shine on)
For all of the hearts who gave their all
know that it shines because of you, (they shine on)

Phantasy stars in universe, (they light up)
shooting to bright the wishes true, (they light up)
Many a star in universe
still, we'll never be world apart

Phantasy stars in universe
It's always the one with you, that I ever see

   

Here's a shorter version of the song above plus the game's opening animation.

The lyrics on this one is kinda weird and the sentences are kinda hard to understand. Saving the world with love? Is that really the message of the song? Despite those facts, I still love the song and have listened to it countless times. Maybe it's because I love the game itself that I ended up liking the song, maybe it's because I like the main character, Emilia Percival, that I ended up loving both the game and the music... there's also a very high chance that I've been hypnotized by those pink stripes.

Striped panties are the best!
