An Amelia song!

I think I have a stable vision of Amelia's character, story, and struggles.

I actually made a draft of this song a while ago. I always thought the instrumental had potential and left it as a sketch, intending to get back to it eventually.

I guess that eventually is now. 

Since the style is very MIMI like, I wanted to use a miku or kafu. Since I had miku, I used her instead.

As I was writing the lyrics, It naturally became a song of comfort and healing, probably due to the MIMI influence. As a result, while the overall message is happy, there's still that hint of melancholy which I feel is necessary to convey such a message.

I can't write happy lyrics haha. Maybe if I ever write idol music it will come naturally to me.

About the song's message, it's about receving the recognition that there are beautiful things in life.
That it never hurts to try to find happiness. As the alternative is a quiet, unending pain.
Even if you stumble and fall, even if everything is fleeting, to have moments where you feel alive is enough to make it all worth it.

"I'm happy I lived."
"I'm glad that I'm alive today.

As for who the voice is that's saying these comforting words, that's up for interpretation.
The typical interpretation is likely a comforting voice reaching out to someone in pain.
For me, as the lyricist, it feels like I'm saying this to myself. Which, I imagine must seem tragically lonely. But it's what allows me to continue to create and live. And I think having this form of self sustainability is important.
For Amelia, it's about her doing her best to spread happiness. Because she knows this pain and its affect on others and herself.

As usual, thank you to ouun_nemuru for writing the jp lyrics.
I'm slowly teaching myself to read and write Japanese, and I hope one day I can communicate my feelings in a medium that shaped me.
