12. AFTERIMAGE [132 BPM | A Major / F♯ Minor | Emotional J-Rock × Alternative Rock × Atmospheric Rock] [INTRO — 0:00–0:12] Clean guitar motif, atmospheric texture 遠い日の光が まだ窓に残ってる I close my eyes And you're still there [VERSE 1 — 0:12–0:42] あの夜の帰り道 並んで見ていた街 くだらない話さえ 今でも覚えてる We never knew Those days would disappear We thought forever Was waiting for us here 笑っていた私たちは 写真の中で止まったまま [PRE-CHORUS — 0:42–1:00] 消えない記憶なら 消さなくてもいい I don't need to hold you To know what we had was real 涙の向こう側 少しずつ見えてくる I can finally breathe I can finally let you go [CHORUS — 1:00–1:32] AFTERIMAGE まだ胸に残ってる Your shadow in the light Still running through my mind あの日の二人には もう戻れないけど I WON'T TURN AROUND I WON'T LET THE PAST HOLD ME DOWN AFTERIMAGE 消えなくてもいい Like a photograph in rain Beautiful, but never the same 忘れるんじゃない ただ前を向くだけ I'll carry what we were And keep moving on [POST-CHORUS — 1:32–1:42] Oh-oh-oh I remember Oh-oh-oh But I'm moving on [VERSE 2 — 1:42–2:10] 同じ場所に立っても 見える景色は変わった あの頃の約束も 静かにほどけていった I used to wonder Could I rewrite yesterday? But I finally understand Some things just fade away 残った優しさは 今もここにある [PRE-CHORUS 2 — 2:10–2:28] 悲しみだけじゃない 確かに幸せだった And I can finally say I'm grateful for those days 遠い記憶の中 笑っている私へ もう大丈夫だから You don't have to stay here [CHORUS — 2:28–3:00] AFTERIMAGE まだ胸に残ってる Your shadow in the light Still running through my mind 遠い日の光に もう手を伸ばさない I CAN LET YOU GO WITHOUT ERASING WHAT I KNOW AFTERIMAGE 少しずつ薄れてく Like colors in the sky Disappearing as time goes by もう振り返らない でも忘れはしない I'll carry what we were And keep moving on [GUITAR SOLO — 3:00–3:15] Short emotional melodic guitar solo. Start restrained, then rise into the final section. [BRIDGE / FINAL BUILD — 3:15–3:35] まだ覚えてる あの日の笑顔を I won't call it a mistake I won't call it a lie ただ過ぎていった時間を 優しく抱いて Thank you for the memories You changed my life さよなら あの日の私 私が歩き始めた日 [FINAL CHORUS — 3:35–4:05] AFTERIMAGE もう怖くない But I'm not afraid tonight I can finally see the light 消えない思い出も いつか遠くなる I don't have to chase them I can let them drift away AFTERIMAGE ありがとう For every road we shared For every moment that was there さよなら あの日の私 I WON'T FORGET WHO I WAS 思い出はそのままで And I'll keep moving on [FINAL CLIMAX — 4:05–4:12] AFTERIMAGE! まだ胸に残ってる BUT IT DOESN'T HOLD ME ANYMORE! I remember... AND I'M MOVING ON! [OUTRO — 4:12–4:18] Intro clean-guitar motif returns. 遠い日の光 静かに消えていく One final harmonic. Silence.
