Celebrating Tanabata and one year of its original release, this is a re-recording of the single Eclipse from 2015, for the new music video of (coming soon)
"The sun and the moon. It seems like an impossible love. However, every day, there are two brief moments when both sees each other in the sky before one of them hides behind the horizon."

ECLIPSE
Every night from the last million years or so,
there’s a furtive encounter between two
lovers born into wide nothingness.
As much as they try
and keep on trying,
they'll never be able to reach out.
She says “why don’t you just give me an answer?”
“I’m getting tired of you, and your eternal silence!”
The problem is he’s not able to listen
because he’s so far away, so far.
In a way, this cannot be his fault, you see,
he’s already so tired of trying to read
her messages made of fire and steam.
Whenever he's coming,
she walks away behind the horizon
and then fails to light up the sky.
And every time they meet
they fall in love,
they fall in love.
He says "Why can’t you just stay a bit longer?”
"I'm getting tired of you and your eternal hiding!"
The problem is that she cannot do better.
Because she's suffered so much, so much.
Promise me. (Play with me.)
Speak to me. (Set me free.)
There’s always a chance. (A distant romance.)
We’ll never stop this dance.
Every night from the last million years or so,
there’s a furtive encounter between two
lovers born into wide nothingness.
As much as they try
and keep on trying
they'll never be able to reach out.
They says "I think this is not even working."
"I know. But then, why can't I stop thinking about us?"
It seems as if there was something stronger
that makes them go on and on, along.
Look at me. (I can’t see)
Speak to me (That’s the key)
We’re both in this trance (A distant romance)
At the end we'll determine that "No one is right"
and we'll witness together there's no way,
“Someone tell them their love will kill this world.”
