Kasander :) (giving both links because the translation on YouTube is fanmade and I assume not on Spotify, but I also transcribed it below the cut)

(Edit: or I did at one point before it suddenly vanished while I tried to fix the Spotify link. So here we find ourselves with no Spotify embedded thingy and no cut. I'm very tired)

Of the approximately seven songs I oscillate between calling the "most Kasander one on the playlist" this is probably the real winner. It's hopeful, but not in a sweet or passive way. It's bright and shimmery and full of intense drive- that's something in the lyrics too. Don't avert your gaze! That burning, relentless idealism and momentum is what makes it to me. If I kept going I'd probably just point at every line and go "see? see? see?" haha. At any rate, it feels like a song about saving someone else and also saving yourself- exactly right for the character.

(it's also one of the songs that I have multiple versions of on the playlist for some reason. if you want for whatever reason to hear a singer who is human and male)

I wonder How long I’ll be able to keep up the act Will I be able to say “goodbye” When I get the urge to go home? Even if the signs I’d overlooked that day Melt away little by little I’m sure it’ll be alright, because Just like this, we’ll be able to meet again

I close my eyes I wonder if it’s too late To leave the tiniest of wishes Will I be able to say “I’m home” When the light returns?

I must go If it’s more beautiful Than any other in the world There’s only one thing to do And that’s to take back All that’s been stolen from us!

Please Make me dizzy Round and round, the other way ‘round Show me swaying Right and left, back and forth Be bright and brilliant Glimmer and glisten, shine and shimmer

(Ohhh)

Softly I summon forth The wounded night And on it I cast A single small magic spell And just like that, We can fly!

(Ohhh)

Don’t avert your gaze! Keep it straight Nothing will be able To stop us at this point Until the magic wears off, Until then, Hold on tight! To my hand, My hand!

I’ll leave Not a single one behind Reclaim everything, As simple as that! Until the magic wears off, Until then, Hold on tight! To my hand, my hand! My hand!

[It’s impossible in the first place Not to commit a single crime And so, at least keeping it hidden, Is what we decided to call “Honest”]

There’s only one thing to do And that’s to take back All that’s been stolen from us!

Softly I summon forth The wounded night And on it I cast A single small magic spell And just like that, We can fly!

(Ohhh)

Please Make me dizzy Round and round, the other way ‘round Show me swaying Right and left, back and forth Be bright and brilliant Glimmer and glisten, shine and shimmer

(Ohhh)

Don’t avert your gaze! Keep it straight Nothing will be able To stop us at this point Until the magic wears off, Until then, Hold on tight! To my hand, My hand!

I’ll leave Not a single one behind Reclaim everything, As simple as that! Until the magic wears off, Until then, Hold on tight! To my hand, my hand! My hand!
