"STORY," with accompanying footage of them in the studio can be heard and viewed in the trailer for the "band side" of Airi's album (from 0:32):
Here's my English translation for "STORY":
- Spoiler:
- STORY
Lyrics: RINA ~ Music & Arrangement: MAMI
Why does this city I've obtained
Feel empty?
The always advancing hands of the clock
Press against my back and leave me breathless
"You can still do it - stand up
It'll be okay," you say
Every time I'm shown kindness and it makes me want to cry
You're there
I've jumped over the limits and made it to today
It's not a lie
I met you who loves me
No matter what
I want to overtake this distance and protect you
No matter what happens
Our distorted footprints are stories no one can take away
I want to move forward with you tomorrow too
I'll go back to the pages I skipped over
And underline them so that I won't forget
Your voice fills the gaps in my heart
Because there no such thing as a single correct answer
"You can still do it - stand up
There's still much more you want to show"
You're with me
As I grow selfish in this dream I can't wake up from
I want to see you over and over again, and the same goes for today
It's enough to make me laugh
No one else can take your place
You're precious to me
Let's cut away these moments and change
The best story is where time passes
And makes us want to cry when we look back
I want to create that kind of future with you
I'll pray for something
On the stars falling through the sky I looked up to
Because the tears from that day make "right now" shine
I've jumped over the limits and made it to today
It's not a lie
I met you who loves me
No matter what
I want to overtake this distance and protect you
No matter what happens
Our distorted footprints are stories no one can take away
I want to move forward with you tomorrow too
