Lyrics
音楽(SOUL)が失われ、争いが絶えない灰色の世界。 孤独な剣士ZEROと、声を失った少女エイン。 交わらぬ言葉の代わりに、鋼の残響が歌となる。
希望と絶望が表裏一体となる過酷な旅路の果てに、彼らが掴む「真実の音」とは。

🎶歌詞
作詞・作曲 KARASU:Re/編曲(Remix)luciluci
音の無い世界で交差した
カラの心を映す瞳。
視線の先に吸い込まれてく
声にならない別れの詩。
夜が明ける前の静寂に
響く鋼の残響。
またひとつ孤独が散りゆき、
憩いの園へと昇り逝く。
何度でも歌う、何度でも。
わたしに声が還るなら。
いつまでも歌う、いつまでも。
あなたの痛みが癒えるまで。
叶わないなら切り裂いて、
想いのすべてを愛の剣で。
何度でも、何度でも。
この世の孤独かき集めても、
わたしの片手にさえ余る。
重なるほど傍にいるのに
言葉も交わせぬ運命なら。
何度でも描く、何度でも。
色を失くした架け橋を。
いつまでも描く、いつまでも。
世界に色が戻るまで。
叶わないなら目を閉じて、
祈りのすべてを掻き消して。
永遠なんていらない。
ただ一度、抱かれるのなら。
声にならない歌でさえ
命を注ぐ光となり、
あなたはわたしから生まれ、
わたしはあなたへ還りゆく。
何度でも歌う、何度でも。
ふたりの歌が還るなら。
いつまでも歌う、いつまでも。
この世の痛みが癒えるまで。
叶わないなら切り裂いて、
想いのすべてをあなたの剣で。
何度でも、何度でも。

📖物語(ストーリー)
※本ストーリーは KARASU:Re 氏の原案に基づき、楽曲の世界観に合わせて再構成したものです。
1. 世界の変貌:音楽を失った「振動」の地
ある日突然、世界から「音楽(SOUL)」が消失した。 音そのものは存在するが、そこに宿るはずの熱量や感動が消え失せ、ただの「無機質な物理振動」へと成り果てたのだ。
希望を失った人々の心は荒廃し、かつての絆は霧散。世界は内戦と混沌の渦に飲み込まれていく。
そんな中、失踪した両親を追う青年ZEROは、音楽を信仰する組織「RAVENS(レイヴンズ)」の一員として、孤独な戦いに身を投じていた。
2. 啓示:八柱の魂を喰らう「Rock」の剣
ZEROの前に一羽の黒鳥が舞い降り、残酷な預言を告げる。
「同胞たる『八柱』をすべて喰らい、唯一生き残りし者が、真なる魂(SOUL)の座へと至らん」
ZEROの手には、“Rock”と名付けられた具象化する剣が握られた。 彼は各地に点在する「異なるジャンルのSOUL」を持つ使い手たちと対峙し、その命を奪い合っていく。それは殺戮ではなく、剣を交えることで相手の魂を昇華させ、自分の中に統合していく「浄化の儀式」でもあった。
3. 出逢い:声を失った少女「エイン」
ある戦いの最中、ZEROはエイン(エイン・ソフ)という少女に出会う。 彼女は言葉を失っていたが、その瞳はZEROを深く射抜き、言葉以上の悲しみを湛えていた。
奇妙なことに、彼女の傍らに黒鳥の姿はない。しかし、彼女と出会って以来、ZEROの剣“Rock”は消えることなく具象化し続け、まるで彼女に共鳴しているかのように鋭く光り始める。 ZEROは、言葉を交わせぬエインの中に、どこか懐かしい「母の愛」に似た温もりを感じ、二人は共に歩むことを決意する。
4. 暗躍:神か悪魔か、謎の存在「MUSA」
彼らの旅を嘲笑うかのように、黒鳥の背後で蠢く存在──「MUSA」。 それが世界から音楽を奪った元凶なのか、あるいは新たな世界の創造主なのか。
ZEROが手にする“Rock”の剣がすべてのSOULを喰らったとき、世界に再び音楽が満ちるのか、それともすべてが虚無に帰るのか。
5. 終局:残酷な選択と「永遠の歌」
エインが再びその声を取り戻し、世界に「永遠(インフィニティ)の歌」を響かせるためには、ZEROはあまりにも過酷な代償を支払わなければならない。
「想いのすべてを愛の剣で──」
希望と絶望が表裏一体となるなか、ZEROが最後に切り裂くのは、運命か、それとも愛する存在か。鋼の残響が止むとき、新たな世界の幕が上がる。
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
“The sword is not for death, but for the purification of the soul—”
A gray world where Music (SOUL) has been lost, and conflict never ends.
A lone swordsman, ZERO, and a girl named Ein who has lost her voice.
In place of words that can never meet, the ring of steel becomes a song.
At the end of a harsh journey where hope and despair are two sides of the same coin—
what is the “true sound” they will finally grasp?

🎶 Lyrics
Lyrics & Music: KARASU:Re / Arrangement (Remix): luciluci
We crossed paths in a world without music,
Eyes reflecting an empty heart.
Drawn into the depths of a silent gaze,
A farewell poem that never becomes a voice.
In the hour before dawn, in the hush of night,
Steel rings out—
And another fragment of solitude scatters away,
Rising toward a place of rest.
Again I sing—again and again,
If my voice can return to me.
I will sing forever, and ever,
Until your pain is healed.
If it cannot be, then I will cut it open,
With a sword of love—every last feeling.
Again and again.
Even if I gather all the loneliness in this world,
It still overflows from my hands.
Though we are closer the more we overlap,
If fate forbids even words between us—
Then again I will draw, again and again,
A bridge that has lost its colors.
I will draw forever, and ever,
Until the world regains its color.
If it cannot be, then close your eyes,
And erase every prayer.
I don’t need eternity.
If only once, I could be held—
Even a song that cannot become a voice
Can turn into light that pours life into the world.
You are born from me,
And I return to you.
Again I sing—again and again,
If our song can return.
I will sing forever, and ever,
Until the pain of this world is healed.
If it cannot be, then I will cut it open,
With your sword—every last feeling.
Again and again.

📖 Story
This story is based on the original concept by KARASU:Re and has been restructured to match the song’s world.
1. The World Transformed: A Land of “Vibration” Without Music
One day, “Music (SOUL)” suddenly vanished from the world.
Sound itself still existed, but the heat and emotion that should have lived within it were gone—
reduced to nothing more than cold, mechanical vibration.
With hope drained away, people’s hearts withered, and bonds that once existed dissolved.
The world was swallowed by civil wars and spiraling chaos.
Amid it all, a young man named ZERO—searching for his missing parents—threw himself into a lonely struggle as a member of the music-worshipping organization, RAVENS.
2. The Revelation: The “Rock” Sword That Devours the Eight Souls
A black bird descended before ZERO and delivered a cruel prophecy:
“There are eight pillars—my kin.
The one who devours them all and still survives
shall reach the seat of the true SOUL.”
In ZERO’s hand appeared a manifested sword named “Rock.”
He confronted wielders who carried SOULs of different genres scattered across the land, clashing blades and taking lives.
Yet this was not slaughter—
but a ritual of purification, where crossing swords would sublimate the other’s soul and integrate it into his own.
3. The Encounter: Ein, the Girl Who Lost Her Voice
In the midst of battle, ZERO met a girl named Ein (Ein Sof).
She had lost her words, yet her eyes pierced ZERO, holding a sorrow deeper than language.
Strangely, there was no black bird at her side—
and yet the sword still took form.
From the day he met her, ZERO’s “Rock” sword continued to remain manifested, shining sharply as if resonating with her very existence.
Within Ein—whom he could not speak to—ZERO began to feel a warmth reminiscent of a mother’s love, and the two chose to walk the same path together.
4. The Shadow at Work: “MUSA,” a Mystery—God or Devil
Behind the black bird, something lurked: MUSA.
Is it the one that stole music from the world… or the creator of a new world?
When ZERO’s “Rock” sword devours every SOUL—
will music return to the world once more, or will everything fall back into void?
5. The Endgame: A Cruel Choice and the “Eternal Song”
For Ein to reclaim her voice and let the “Infinity Song” resound across the world,
ZERO must pay an unbearably harsh price.
“With a sword of love—every last feeling—”
In a journey where hope and despair are inseparable,
what will ZERO cut down at the end—fate, or the one he loves?
When the ring of steel finally fades, a new world will begin.
