[Verse 1] Cold air bites as dawn breaks slow, Orders sealed, a crate to go. “From the Commander,” stamped in red, Research tools, words left unsaid. Kii laughs loud at Shimakaze’s cheer, “Careful, sis, it’s catching, I fear.” I fix my horns, stay calm, stay tight, Duty first — don’t lose your sight. [Pre-Chorus 1] Kii’s voice cuts through my guarded shell: “Don’t be shy! Let’s do this with flair!” [Chorus] Oh, for crying out loud! Why’s my heart beating so loud? Trust the wind, trust the sound, I hear the truth beneath the ground. If I freeze, they’ll fall apart— So I move, though doubt claws my heart. [Verse 2] Static breaks — a convoy near, Southeast blasts ring sharp and clear. Shimakaze’s route… that’s the zone, Mirror Sea? She’s not alone. I tell myself she knows her way, Still the “what ifs” refuse to stay. Alarms scream red, the ocean bends, Faith or fear — this choice decides ends. [Chorus] Oh, for crying out loud! Now the battle’s screaming loud. Through the smoke I see them stand, Friends and foes, all close at hand. I fire true, my doubts undone— I won’t run. Not anymore. Not once. [Verse 2] We arrive as cannons cool, New Jersey ends Purifier’s rule. But shadows stir beneath the tide, Tentacles reach — no place to hide. Observer smiles, the trap complete, Mirror Sea fades, retreat so neat. Laughter echoes, comms go dead… Commander — silence instead. [Final Chorus] Oh, for crying out loud! So this is what they planned out. No signal home, just shattered seas, And questions sinking quietly. Commander… what game is this? I’ll see it through. I always will.
