Nostalgia - Vita Mechanicalis -
Lyrics: Imai Hisashi
Music: Imai Hisashi
Lyrics translation (C) This is NOT Greatest Site, Cayce.

People employ words that never scatter
Eating the pantograph sparks
Walking Cubist through the twilit plaza
What those eyes saw
Was the back of us light-years into the future
The dynamo turns

Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade
Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade

Bright red iron ingots
Populated country scenery
Celluloid human silhouettes
Flickering in the twilight
Whistling echoing in the street
And the noise of windmills
Someone called out to me
But there was no one nearby
The dynamo turns

The crescent moon hangs down
Over the bright metropolis night
Highway ramp mass exodus
Δ Delta Ι Iota Λ Lambda Ξ Ksi
Laughing voices, signs, ether cocktails
A meeting of machines and black umbrellas
The dynamo turns

Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade
Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade
Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade
Vita mechanicalis vita machina decade

Bright red iron ingots
Populated country scenery
Celluloid human silhouettes
Flickering in the twilight
Whistling echoing in the street
And the noise of windmills
Someone called out to me
But there was no one nearby
The dynamo turns

Bright red iron ingots
Populated country scenery
Celluloid human silhouettes
Flickering in the twilight
Whistling echoing in the street
And the noise of windmills
Someone called out to me
But there was no one nearby
The dynamo turns

何だこりゃ、今井さんも櫻井さんも超かっこいい。
軍服とマント姿は神々しくて同じ人間とは思えない。
