Lyric

The First Star

ACE

There was a light in the midnight sky

A quiet flame you left inside

When the world was cold and breaking me

That gentle warmth still carries me

When I was lost, you pulled me close

No words were needed, I just knew

Looking back, you were always there

I feel you now, I feel you still

On the night my brightest star burned out

I reached for you but you were gone

Still in my chest, your light remains

It leads me on, it keeps me strong

You showed me how to stand and fight

With honest words and steady eyes

Even in doubt, I hear your voice

A guiding line, my inner choice

Every step I take through hidden tears

The way you lived is pushing me ahead

Looking back, I see your smile

Alive in me, not truly dead

On the night my brightest star burned out

I look above and say your name

Inside the pain, I found your light

You’re living on inside my flame

Time moves on, the seasons turn

But some lights refuse to fade

I searched the sky, then realized

Your fire is lighting up my way

Even when the brightest star is gone

I won’t forget the love you gave

Beyond the dark, beyond the loss

I choose to live, I choose to stay

Still alive in me

Still alive in me

Still alive in me

ALIVE

    Dreams Left Behind

    ACE

The First Star / Dreams Left Behind は、
ACEが“過去”と“これから”の狭間に立ち、
静かに夜空を見上げた瞬間を切り取った両A面作品である。
人は生きていく中で、
失うものと、置き去りにしてしまうものを必ず抱える。
それは誰かの死であり、叶えられなかった夢であり、
あるいは、まだ言葉にできない感情かもしれない。
このアルバムは、
それらを無理に美化することも、
なかったことにすることも選ばない。
喪失は喪失として、
後悔は後悔として受け入れたうえで、
それでも人は前を向けるのか――
その問いに、音楽で向き合った記録だ。
夜の底に取り残された夢と、
遠くで確かに輝くひとつの星。
その距離は決して近くない。
だが、見失っていない限り、物語は終わらない。
Another Centuries Episode
それは、次の時代へ踏み出すための静かな決意。
過去を背負ったまま、それでも歩き続ける者たちのための音。
