Ah, another cover unearthed from the midst of a thousand WIPs...
This cover is late, late, late. The instrumental was done by October of... 2017. Lyrics were done soon after that. Mix was done by March-ish 2019 and here it is, two years later.
tl;dr I'm a mess.

But I'm so happy with the lyrics, the mix, and the instrumental. Yorushika's debut song's probably not as catchy as Say it. but it still reigns as one of my most favourite songs from their first EP, besides Clouds and Ghosts. Ngl, aside from Glens (  / gurenzu  ) I'm a pretty avid Yorushika fan. Like, the only album i've been looping for the last few months is That's Why I Gave Up on Music -- not even Android Girl or ZUTOMAYO's new EP. I love them so so much and I'm very happy I get to cover this.

There are a lot of memories tied up with this song, including a broken friendship that may never recover in the near future. But as always, I'll leave the interpretation up to you guys :) Thank you so much for the support, see you all in the next upload!

✻ Lyrics ✻ (Credit David, Sayri and I please!)
Hey, hey
Though I try to speak, all my thoughts will never come to light
I’d just end up with my mouth hanging wide, that’s why
That’s why

Hey, hey
Even in the silence I know exactly what you mean
Eyes say all we really need to it seems

Even now the buzz in my head
Slowly eats away at all of the memories
But I know the things that you said
Every day was laughter when you were with me

I just wanna jump off into the sunset
High above the clouds and out towards the sky’s end
And beneath it all it’s fading so slowly
The town you had shown me…
It seems so lonely

Standing by my shoes a flower is blooming
Fire flowers filled the night with their booming
Maybe in the sky, I could leave behind my heart and its weeping
Summer days are all that I’m dreaming

Hey, hey
Is there any way I could start to think the way you do?
Hey, hey, wouldn’t it be great if I could?

Calm, rest
They don’t mean a thing, all my worries won’t just disappear
That said, shimmering the skyline is clear

Everything I’ve eaten away
Came at the expense of somebody else’s life
Even then I can’t find my place
Dreaming of the nighthawk that’s high in the sky

I just wanna dance away in the sunrise
If I could I know I’d wish to the night sky
Over time you’ve faded far from my sight
But my eyes won’t forget you
They just don’t want to

Underneath it all the flowers are crying
Fire flowers ringing out as they’re dying
Even just the thought of hearing the sound, it brings me to weeping
Summer pains are all that I’m hearing

Hey, Hey
Even if these wings take me far away into the sky
I’d say
That I still want you by my side, that’s why…
that’s why…

I just wanna jump off into the sunset
High above the stars now, hoping to end this
And beneath it all it’s fading so slowly
The town you had shown me…
It’s just so lonely

In the summer sky the flowers are blooming
Fire flowers filled the night with their booming
Thinking that the pain will never subside, the tears never leave me
Summer days are now but a memory
