STORY

Someone runs, someone chases—and from that instant, the story begins to move.

"Pursuit and Escape" is a cinematic dark pop track depicting the human heart in pursuit of truth within the dark.

Footsteps racing through the night city, broken neon, wavering shadows. In a game of fate that never ends no matter how you run or chase, is the one you're chasing an enemy, or yourself? An edgy beat and tense soundscape reflect the inescapable truth lurking deep in the heart—a thrilling, dramatic song.

Lyrics (Japanese)

Translation

誰かが逃げ、誰かが追う その瞬間から物語が始まる。Someone runs, someone gives chase, and from that instant the story begins.

足音が夜を裂くFootsteps tear the night apart

街の灯りが息を潜めるThe city lights hold their breath in silence

心臓の鼓動だけが 生きている証Only the pounding of my heart proves I'm still alive

見えない鎖が まだ俺を掴んで離さないAn unseen chain still grips me, won't let go

逃げるほどに近づくThe more I run, the closer it draws

そんな声が頭をよぎるA voice like that flickers through my head

追うのは敵か、それとも自分かIs it the enemy I'm chasing, or is it myself?

追跡と逃避の狭間でCaught in the space between pursuit and escape

正しさも壊してしまえLet even what's right be torn to pieces

息が切れるほど走り続けたI kept on running till my breath gave out

真実はまだ遠くで笑ってるThe truth is still out there, laughing from afar

壊れたネオンが光る路地裏Down the alley where broken neon flickers

影がひとつ、またひとつ増えるA shadow, then another, and one more appears

信じたものが裏返るたびEach time what I believed in turns against me

俺は俺を見失っていくI lose more and more of who I am

手にした冷たい真実がThis cold truth I hold in my hand

現実を突きつけてくるThrusts what's real before my eyes

誰の罪を裁いてる?Whose sin am I standing here to judge?

追跡と逃避は鏡の中Pursuit and escape, reflected in the mirror

映るのは同じ顔The face staring back is one and the same

逃げても追っても終わらないRun or chase, it never comes to an end

運命のゲームが続いていくThis game of fate just goes on and on

音を立てて崩れる記憶Memories collapse with a shattering sound

交わる過去と未来Past and future crossing as one

全ての答えはここにあったEvery answer was right here all along

俺自身から逃げられないThere's no escaping from my own self

追跡と逃避の果てでAt the far end of pursuit and escape

見えたのは壊れた空What I saw was a broken, shattered sky

叫びながら手を伸ばしたCrying out, I reached my hand toward it

自由という名の幻にA mirage that goes by the name of freedom
