My first song written with Hatsune Miku. Written as an entry for the 2016 edition of the Miku Expo Music Contest.
This song is about a crumbling relationship. More specifically, one on the verge of collapse, that both parties are desperately searching for answers to, find a way to bring it back together. The music video prominently features a lesbian couple, who are named Tea and Viola (based on their prominent identifying colors, teal and violet), and it's specifically their story I'm telling.
It has a happy ending, but that's not explored in this song, unfortunately.
lyrics
What's there left to say?
We've played all the games
And now we're here with our hands untying
It's the end of days
For our little craze
And we're not too far from straying far apart
Ooh, do you feel the rain?
The pain?
The same?
Right here, right now, I'm
Feeling we're out of time
And it's not like we can
Flip the sands
Right here, right now, I'm
Feeling that something's not right
Can you feel this vibe?
(Ooh-woah-ooh-woah-oh, oh, ah-ah-ah-ah)
Right here, right now, I'm
Clinging and holding you tight
Is there something that hasn't
Crossed our minds?
Right here, right now, I'm
Not sure what feels wrong or right
Tell me, tell me
Is there a way to pacify the pain?
Are we history?
Were we incomplete?
Is there anything left to salvage?
Was it worth the things
We had done for rings?
But in the end, does it even matter?
Ooh, it's the final seconds of us
For us
Right here, right now, I'm
Feeling we're out of time
And it's not like we can
Flip the sands
Right here, right now, I'm
Feeling that something's not right
Can you feel this vibe?
(Ooh-woah-ooh-woah-oh, oh, ah-ah-ah-ah)
Right here, right now, I'm
Clinging and holding you tight
Is there something that hasn't
Crossed our minds?
Right here, right now, I'm
Not sure what feels wrong or right
Tell me, tell me
Is there a way to pacify the pain?
Is there a way to pacify the pain?

Circus's "715" is an excellent evolution of his sound and style since the "Lucid" days. I'm extremely proud to be part of it (on "Patches", "Castaway" remix), and thoroughly enjoy the entire album. nostraightanswer
Melt came into my orbit by covering a song I recorded for Circus-P. Since then, her own sound has become something quite special, and has made herself a mainstay of the English VOCALOID scene. nostraightanswer
