Bottom of the 9th

"Bottom of the 9th" - the final at-bat, when there's no way back.

This song uses a baseball game as its motif,
layering it with the story of who we are today.

Humanity gained the ability to think,
but in exchange, we've lost many things.
Now we find ourselves pushed into the bottom of the 9th.

The manager, who once gave all the signs, is silent.
All that's left is to decide with our own instincts.

Will it end here?
Or can we push it into extra innings?

Carrying a quiet question and a small hope,
we step up to the final plate.

"We don't want to disappear... yet."
