Lost Time Memory -ayano alter- (English Cover)【ロスタイムメモリー】

This is a remake of a project I made with Will many years ago. I always liked the idea but wanted to redo a few of the lyrics that didn't flow as well and update the manga portions a bit. This is my own retelling of Lost Time Memory from the Kagerou Project but framed to focus on Ayano Tateyama instead of Shintarto Kisaragi. It's moments like these that I really wish IA had an English voice bank, but what are you going to do.

Be touched again…. “Can you hear my voice disappearing in the twilight?” The reasons then were so clear in hindsight I rest my eyes as the feeling was lost in the haze Girl, 18, had prayed so kindly Those precious days are long behind me The summer smile I lost to time became the Light that now will guide me “I was blind to all you went through” “But now this time I’ll bear it with you” Don’t let this scene all end in dreams, you were the world to me The silhouettes will smile on until the day we’re finally free #vocaloid #kagepro
