I found this song through Beat Saber and was immediately taken in by the beautiful flow of the chorus. The lyrics talk about a person’s dreams and view of the world being shattered by a harsh and unfair reality , portrayed as a post-apocalyptical world where one needs a gas mask to survive. This person likely grew up believing themselves to be righteous and kind, but found society to be neither. While others would consider ending their life, the singer chooses to forsake the high expectations placed on them to be proper, considering living on a form of fighting back, even though it is a fight they will inevitably lose.

It’s nice to still see you around. I used to watch your translated music videos as a kid growing up.
