    I guess since we're all sharing why this made us cry:
    About four and a half years ago, my fiancée had her meet and greet with Calli. There was a lot of times where she had stopped me from over working myself. I'd probably have worked myself to death if it hadn't been for her. I don't think I ever told her that she saved my life.
    We used to think that we'd make music when we finished college, but now that she's gone. When she died, I really lost all my passion for creating and playing music. Recently I've been wanting wanting to write again, and I think this might be the sign I needed.
    Thank you, Calli! You may not have saved my life, but I think you saved my heart.

But I'd never let that get in the way of how proud I am of those who kept going. I'm so proud of you, Calli, and you don't owe anyone the guilt of succeeding. Please, for the dreams of those who've fallen, push as high as you can.

      @@spencerstabio5936 It's a really long story, but tl;dr: I put all of my effort into reaching a place that would help me become a professional musician. That place ended up kickstarting a battle with depression and taking away any hope I had of making it in the way I thought I could. I knew if I stayed on that path it'd ruin my happiness and I wouldn't achieve what I wanted to. So I took a different path. It's been bumpy, but it could have been a lot worse.
      Also, I just want to say it is so amazing to have made this comment 4 days ago and see the new heights Calli is pushing in such a short time. I know it's probably been in the pipeline for weeks/months, but it feels so good to see the success of someone directly after wishing it for them.

      I definitely don't think Calli is for everyone, but no one can deny how fucking hard she works. The amount of music she's put out just this year is fucking STAGGERING to think about. A full album with another on the way, a bunch of singles and multiple EPs. She's an absolute powerhouse of creation and you can see how much she's exploring and growing throughout all of it. I remember watching her debut and kinda dismissing vtubers as something I wasn't interested in, but she tangentially fell back into my feeds around a month ago and I rediscovered her. She's become a huge inspiration for me and who knows.. maybe one day I'll give music another shot.

    When you play (1) Cursed night, (2) End of a Life, and (3) Live Again in order, you can sketch up a story somehow of sorrow, grief, despair, regret, acceptance, finding meaning, and then finally gratitude. (see edits below)
    It's a personal interpretation but yeah, music can be ambiguous and I believe that's part of what makes it wonderful, since more people can find ways to relate and subsequently cope. I believe I am not alone in saying these songs have helped and are helping me get through rough times.
    EDIT 1: I thought more about it, and yeah Cursed Night tells a story of meeting someone too good for yourself and getting to know one's dark past, while End of a Life is about how you had fun together but suddenly parted, while Live Again is being thankful or hopeful at least for everything that's happened.
    EDIT 2: Someone pointed out to me below in the replies that Live Again should come first following my interpretation, because End of a Life is actually reminiscing about the good old times. The reply makes a lot of sense actually, so revised order is (1) Cursed Night, (2) Live Again, and (3) End of a Life.
    EDIT 3: I have also just realized that Cursed Night may be a song directed to the Deadbeats' for their kindness and curiosity about Calli's story (because her story seemingly suggests great sorrow). "Do you want to see the beauty of this despair? This time, look for yourself." It still kind of fits the timeline, I guess? Hahaha man now I need to listen to all of her songs again.

      Don't know if this is obvious to Calli's fanbase, but I believe interpretations should begin with Death Arcana (from tarot). In a very resumed way, the Death Arcana means change. Following your line of thought, this song is about her reminiscing about her past, even though she knows it will never come back, since her old self is "dead".

    To me this tells a story of jumping in to a world that doesn’t feel like it has room for you. Roaming aimlessly with no direction, Calliope left her old life in a risky trade that ended up paying off. She “flew” with “no proof” it would work out, and here she is looking back at the world she left behind to pursue it. She longs for her days of playing fantasy games and “playing the villain” in tabletop games. She tries to shake it off and be grateful for what she has, now that she got what she prayed for, but she has a nagging feeling that she owes something to the people she left behind.
    My belief is that the city that never died is the reminder of the story that happened there, but it’s only a reminder that it happened, it lacks the people (or soul) she remembers was there, and wants to say her goodbyes to.

    ​end of a life
    Mori Calliope
    [森カリオペ「​end of a life」歌詞]
    [Chorus]
    We'd run right through those nights
    I'll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
    There was madness in the meaning
    Never laughless, we were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    I'll fly, no proof
    Those heights, I'll never find another chance to say "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
    I was hopeless, it was stinging
    Running roadless, we were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    [Verse 1]
    What was the root of it all?
    I couldn't say
    Used to jump and then fall
    Rugged and clichéd
    Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
    No use in trying to find friends, 'cause in the end nobody sticks around
    It's when you shoved yourself into a crowded place that you turned around and found yourself in love in outer space
    Cue the reckless nights, no strings, laughing at our own dreams
    Just what the hell was so funny?
    Bark up the wrong tree, stumble, used to falling great heights
    Amidst a concrete jungle, singing 'cause it felt right
    We mixed the ennui and troubles, rhyming our discontent
    And though it's history, I can't forget the time that we spent
    Convinced that this could mean another end
    Exists between real and pretend
    A twisted alter-fiction where I missed my chance, did not ascend, and
    Disappearing into the mist of "never happened" is the me that I can never befriend
    I let it go
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Fade in, fade out
    This crazy dream
    Without a direction, floating aimlessly
    There's nothing left
    Back there for me
    Breathe in, but it won't stop the rain from pouring
    [Chorus]
    We'd run right through those nights
    I'll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
    There was madness in the meaning
    Never laughless, we were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    But was there ever a soul inside?
    [Verse 2]
    Chasing fireflies between the soaring high-rises
    Left a trail behind, defined it "wasted time of our lives"
    Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
    Thinks an office is a coffin until off is where you're laid
    Yet a thought persists, an optimist who ought to be afraid
    Saw the "nothing wrong" in writing songs behind the lonely shade
    Is the world a sadder place without the words that you conveyed?
    When the ladder fell and shattered every bar that we had played?
    Does it matter in the end the sound diminished and decayed
    And your friends grew tired of fantasy; you're wishing they had stayed?
    You don't get to say "I miss you," you watched your heroes fade
    Into the rear-view mirror of the villain you portrayed
    Stop the pity party, listen
    You don't get to be dismayed
    You don't get to be emotional, feel blessed you got it made
    These the best of years of life because you chose to make a trade
    Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this
    What is there to miss?
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Fade in, fade out
    This hazy dream
    Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
    There's nothing left
    Back there for me
    Pretend it's the end of a made-up story
    [Chorus]
    I'll fly, no proof
    Those heights, I'll never find another chance to say "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
    I was hopeless, it was stinging
    Driving roadless, we were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    I'll say goodbye to the soul inside
    [Bridge]
    (And yet somehow, there was romance
    In our self-hate, "we've got no chance"
    In this light maze, but let's hold hands
    Through the night haze, we'll run so fast
    'Til the school chime, 'til the train runs

    Waking up now, to the "real life"
    Let me daydream, 'til the next night)
    I'll keep waiting
    I'll keep waiting for you
    [Outro]
    Waking up now, to my real life
    Let me daydream, 'til the next flight
    Drowning so long, I got older
    Now the crowd's gone, is it over?
    Is it over?

    This song hits hard for a lot of people. Of the infinite possible branches of our lives, we only ever get to pick one. All we can really do is think about the different paths and the what-ifs, the alter-fictions and the versions of ourselves that we can never befriend.

      This one hit me real hard because i think about the choices i have made in the past very often. I never made any big mistakes, just a lot of small ones but my life is exactly the situation people describe when they say "I don't know what would happen to me if i never met..." "I don't know where I would be if ... hadn't reached out to me".

      The part that hits me most in my current life is. . . well. . . what happens if there actually were choices, but, you never knew they existed back then, and thus, missed them?
      At least with choices there’s a set of paths that you could possibly go down, but, what about those who get “railroaded” in life and then get slammed into a pigeonhole that can’t be escaped because, somewhen across the previous route in life, a butterfly effect occurred that cascaded into the modern day and left you in a life dead-end?

    Calli - I don’t know if you’ll ever read this, but here are my words of thanks anyways.
    This song speaks to me so much due to me taking an opportunity to live and work in another country.
    “Waking up to my real life, let me daydream to the next flight.” - The daydream is living in the moment of wherever I am in between flights. I’m solitary and have roots for a moment until I get to travel again, which is what I live to do.
    “You don’t get to be emotional,
    Be blessed you got it made!” - I’m torn over that my life in my current city is over (the experiences and memories, the friends, all of it) are over, but even more is ahead. I remember I got a chance that few others got.
    “Those nights, I’ll never find my way back to you” and “This city never died.” - My time here is over, nothing can replace it, but it is over. And the city will go on after I leave.
    This song means a lot to me, especially tonight. Thanks for writing and singing it.
    I’ll be listening to this when I lift off whole watching this chapter “fade into the rear view mirror.”
    Thanks Calli.

    We'd run right through those nights
    I'll never find my way back to you
    Inside this labyrinth of lights
    There was madness in the meaning
    Never laughless, we were screaming
    At the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    I'll fly, no proof
    Those heights
    I'll never find another chance to say
    "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
    I was hopeless, it was stinging
    Running roadless
    We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    What was the root of it all? Huh
    I couldn't say
    Used to jump and then fall
    Rugged and clichéd
    Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
    No use in trying to find friends
    'Cause in the end nobody sticks around
    It's when you shoved yourself into a crowded place
    That you turned around
    And found yourself in love in outer space
    Cue the reckless nights, no strings
    Laughing at our own dreams, haha
    Just what the hell was so funny?
    Bark up the wrong tree, stumble
    Used to falling great heights
    Amidst a concrete jungle
    Singing 'cause it felt right
    We mixed the ennui and troubles
    Rhyming our discontent
    And though it's history
    I can't forget the time that we spent
    Convinced that this could mean another end
    Exists between real and pretend
    A twisted alter-fiction
    Were I missed my chance, did not ascend
    And disappearing into the mist of "Never happened"
    Is the me that I can never befriend
    I let it go
    Fade in, fade out
    This crazy dream
    Without a direction, floating aimlessly
    There's nothing left
    Back there for me
    Breathe in, but it won't stop the rain from pouring
    We'd run right through those nights
    I'll never find my way back to you
    Inside this labyrinth of lights
    There was madness in the meaning
    Never laughless, we were screaming
    At the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    But was there ever a soul inside?
    Chasing fireflies between the soaring high-rises
    Left a trail behind
    Defined it, "Wasted time of our lives"
    Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
    Thinks an office is a coffin
    Until off is where you're laid
    Yet a thought persists
    An optimist who ought to be afraid
    Saw the "Nothing wrong" in writing songs
    Behind the lonely shade
    Is the world a sadder place
    Without the words that you conveyed?
    When the ladder fell
    And shattered every bar that we had played?
    Does it matter in the end
    The sound diminished and decayed
    And your friends grew tired of fantasy
    You're wishing they had stayed?
    You don't get to say, "I miss you"
    You watched your heroes fade
    Into the rear-view mirror of the villain you portrayed
    Stop the pity party, listen
    You don't get to be dismayed
    You don't get to be emotional
    Feel blessed you got it made
    These the best of years of life
    Because you chose to make a trade
    Recollect the days you hoped
    And you prayed for this
    What is there to miss?
    Fade in, fade out
    This hazy dream
    Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
    There's nothing left
    Back there for me
    Pretend it's the end of a made-up story
    I'll fly, no proof
    Those heights
    I'll never find another chance to say
    "Hey, thanks for saving my life"
    I was hopeless, it was stinging
    Driving roadless, we were singing
    At the top of our lungs to the numbness
    This city never died
    I'll say goodbye to the soul inside
    And yet somehow, there was romance
    In our self-hate, "We've got no chance"
    In this light maze, but let's hold hands
    Through the night haze, we'll run so fast
    'Til the school chime, 'til the train runs
    We know it's time, we're the sane ones
    Waking up now, to the "Real life"

    There's nothing fake about this type of longing. This feels like the flipside of Live Again - where that song celebrated moving on, this one mourns what once was. Because it's not easy to just say you've moved on. Sometimes you relapse back to those good times. Should you feel guilty? Would life have been better had you stayed? Even if the head has answers, the heart remains clouded. And yet, to say you've had those times at all is a kind of blessing. That's the bittersweet passion I hear in this song.

    This is a bittersweet masterpiece I'm going to be looping for a long time, and if what I think this song is about is correct, it's really relatable to something we all have to go through at some point: saying goodbye to life as you knew it when a big change happens in your life.
    (Warning: song analysis wall of text ahead)
    While some of Mori's prior songs were about coming to terms with the new challenges of her new career as a Hololive VTuber, streamer, and entertainer, I think this song is about the other side of the change: coming to terms with saying goodbye to her old life as a Grim Reaper. Mori has talked before on stream about how she has old friends she hasn't talked to in a long time, and I'm sure she's so busy now with streaming and projects that she hasn't had too much time to reconnect with them, which would only make the divide widen, and that's painful for anyone to go through.
    Another big part of this song, I think: she's also talked before about how she honed her rap skills in the Underworld's underground scene, starting off with an audience size smaller than you can count on one hand, and she's mentioned how she got a lot of helpful advice from her peers in the Underworldian scene. It might not necessarily be the same in the Underworld, but from what I know of the underground rap scene in the human world, it's a big struggle to even survive as an artist and many rappers have to join together in close-knit groups to survive. If Calli left an existence like that to join Hololive and crank out hits that topped the iTunes charts, while her old homies continued to struggle just to make it day by day, I could see how that could be a guilt weighing down on her and how it wouldn't be so easy to simply go back to her old crew and pretend like it's just another day in the underground.
    "When the ladder fell and shattered every bar that we had played?"
    I really love both the symbolism and the double (or more?) meaning in this line. I'm assuming the fallen ladder refers to um... well let's just say a certain situation in the human world and underworld that's making it rather difficult to convene for musical performances. And for many artists who were already struggling, that could possibly mean the end of their careers. You could say two kinds of "bar we had played" were shattered: bars as in verses of rap no longer being performed, and bars as in literal bars that serve drinks, where musicians would often perform but now have been forced to close.
    "And your friends grew tired of fantasy, you’re wishing they had stayed?
    You don’t get to say I miss you, you watched your heroes fade
    Into the rear view-mirror of the villain you portrayed"
    This is the part of the song that I think supports the explanation I have come up with so far. I think some of Calli's old rap homies had to up and leave the rap scene due to the struggles of the current situation getting too hard - even ones she looked up to a lot. But while they faded into obscurity, Calli only moved forward to great things. She feels guilty, like she was a villain in their eyes.
    "Stop the pity party, listen, you don’t get to be dismayed
    You don’t get to be emotional, feel blessed you got it made
    These the best of years of life because you chose to make a trade
    Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this
    What is there to miss?"
    I think with this Calli is saying she misses her old homies and feels nostalgic for the old days, but is also being critical of herself: how is it, she asks herself, that she now misses the old days when she spent those old days hoping for the existence she has now?
    From here, I think the rest of the song is coming to terms with the fact that things will never be able to go back to exactly the way they were before. And in the end, she can still look back fondly at the old times even though she knows she has to "wake up now to the real life" and focus now on where she is in the present.
    And in the end, there's still a hope. "I'll keep waiting for you" - just as Calli found a new existence for herself, maybe her old homies have found new existences for themselves too. And who knows what the future holds. Perhaps there is hope of someday seeing her old homies again and reminiscing.
    "Now the crowd's gone - is it over?"
    The song doesn't end with with a definitive "things are over" - it ends with a question. Maybe things are over, maybe they are not. One can only see what lies ahead.
    And thus, that's why I call this song a bittersweet masterpiece. It's a journey, starting with a happy memory of the past, quickly turned into a saddening lament for days that can't be relived, turned back again into a sliver of hope for the future.
    One of Calli's finest songs yet. And I can only wait in eager anticipation for the amazing songs I know she'll keep bringing. Biggest of ups.
    (One last side point I want to mention - I don't think the release timing of this song coinciding with the closing of Coco's free chat was anything more than a happy accident, as Calli always releases songs at the end of the month. With that said however, I do think Coco's graduation could maybe have been an influence on Calli choosing to write this song. After all, Coco also had to say goodbye to her life as she knew it and all the friends she made in her time with Hololive...)
    EDIT: And remember, this is just my interpretation! As is the case with Calli's songs, there's usually many possible interpretations, and the one I came up with may not have even been what Calli intended. But it's always fun to try to figure out the "puzzle" Calli leaves in her lyrics, and if anyone thinks I might have missed something or gotten some details wrong, feel free to share your own thoughts on the song!

    “Thinks an office is a coffin, until off is where your laid.” Some of the best word play I’ve ever heard. “Office” obviously rhymes with “off is”, but that’s not all. “Off is where your laid” referring to being laid off and fired from your job, but also using the term “where your laid” to refer to being laid to rest in a coffin. And it all ties together with the theme of being overworked to the point of death. Genius.

      I also see "death" as not being entirely literal, but the death of your soul amidst the concrete jungle. It feels like there's also a theme of nostalgia, of freedom, of the dreams you once had that you had to kill in the office. It's definitely something a lot of us have experienced amidst our careers in jobs we've lost the passion for, or never had.

    I've listened to this song when it first came out, and at the time, I thought "What a beautiful song," but now, after finding it again after a few months, I cry every time while listening to it, because of how much it resonates with me.
    At the time, I had made a really good group of friends, and my life just changed, because they helped me out of my darkest moments, and I guess you could say they saved my life. I'll never have anyone in my life quite the same as them, because they set the standard of 'friend' so high for me. Around a month ago, I got an opportunity that I had been hoping for, but in accepting it, I had to move states. I'll never be able to see them again, or thank them, or even tell them how much they mean to me. Since then, my life just hasn't been the same. I made new 'friends', but they're nowhere near as close to me as my old ones. We've started drifting apart, and it's like I was never there in the first place. But I can't blame anyone but myself, since I made this choice, and it was one that I had been hoping for for so long, my life should now be at its best, so I shouldn't have to miss my old life. I often wonder if my friends are thinking about me the same way, or if they've already moved on in life, and I'm the only one stuck in the past. Even though I have gotten what I wanted, I had to sacrifice what I needed in order to get it.
    I always wonder what my life would be like if I hadn't received the offer. Would I have been happier?

    I was listening to this song just now,
    It made relate to my problems in life.
    Got bullied because of how I speak,
    Got ignored a few times because I didn't fit right in,
    And got scolded because I keep breaking promises and let everyone down because of how stubborn and hard-headed I was.
    I was at my lowest point during and after the pandemic.
    To the point where I was depressed and stressed out.
    Because I lost two of my most important people in my life.
    I was eating and sleeping out of frustration,
    Until...
    You guys came into my life.
    Especially you, Calli.
    Your songs saved me.
    Including this one.
    2022 was the year that Vtubers came into my life.
    After Kpop in 2018.
    And I wanted to say,
    Thank you.
    For being here in Hololive.
    Without you,
    Myth wouldn't be the same without our lovable reaper-rapper dad.
    I maybe sixteen, but you inspired me to keep going foward and achieve my dreams.

    Among my other inspirations.
    You were the reason why I loved music in the first place.

  • @BlueSpooky

    I really appreciate Calli's songs. They always give me inspiration to try again when I'm about to give up. Same with Watame and Suisei. I know nobody really cares about my story, but this one really resonated with me.
    I was a youtuber that hit it big way back in the day, nearly 7 years ago. I had been making videos for years for basically no audience, until final about 2 years into it, I finally got my big viral hit that started taking off and was really good. Unfortunately a friend who I considered a partner and brother at the time decided he was jealous of my success and tried to hurt me. It really messed me up, and I stopped making videos as often.
    My chance at my big dream, and success passed me by, and in the blink of an eye before I knew it, new people rose up in my genre and I had been completely left behind. I resigned myself to believing I was just a washed up nobody who would never have that chance at success again. The dream had already passed me by, and I missed my chance to grab it.
    I'd heard about vtubers before but never paid much attention. One day I stumbled upon a song of Cali's and it sucked me in. Then I found Watame. Hearing their stories made me want to try again, and instead of video making feeling like a prison trapping me in a painful memory, it began to become fun again. Now I'm trying new things, making new types of content, and I feel like there's hope again. Everything isn't so gray.
    I know this probably doesnt really matter to anyone, but I just want to say thank you to Cali and to the hololive community for giving me the strength to try again. Even if that time in my life is over, now is another time.

    I love the line "There's nothing left back there for me."
    The first time, it's a heartbreaking realization that she can't go back anymore, because there's nothing left there for her.
    But the second time, with the context of the lines "Feel blessed you got it made" and "Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this, what is there to miss?" It takes on new meaning. It's still a bit sad, but it's now a confident declaration of acceptance. She doesn't need to go back, because there's nothing left for her there. She's moved on.
    At least, that's how I interpret it.

    Still trying to chase dreams while working at a job. Parents telling me that it's pointless. Friends that shared dreams but left one by one hit by reality.
    At the end of every day I tell myself, do I regret chasing my dreams? I don't. I'm not giving up until reality puts me down in my grave.

      I kinda gave up college halfway because I was mentally exhausted and tired like I want it to end and I'm here now trying to still think that "do I regret it?" I'm still looking for the answer I'm just so confused, frustrated, tired, and just lost but my mom said she'd support me in whatever I do as long as I don't waste my life sitting in one spot, I'd rather move my body to the point of breaking and do it all over again without a shadow of a doubt of me regretting letting college go to waste, because theres no tomorrow that I can face if I keep staying there, I have to find the answer outside of my comfort zone

    Last night, I listened to this song for the first time in months. It instantly transported me back to those nights when my friends and I used to hang out on Discord. The memories flooded in, a bittersweet mix of nostalgia and longing.
    Back then, I couldn't help but despise the pandemic and the quarantine it imposed on us. It felt like our world had been turned upside down. But in the midst of that loneliness, a bright spot emerged. My friends and hololive-EN became my companions during those darkest hours, filling the void with laughter and joy.
    Now, in this post-pandemic world, my friends and I have returned to our normal college lives. Our schedules are busier than ever, and the simple pleasure of hanging out on Discord seems like a distant dream. But as I replayed that song, I realized just how grateful I am for those moments we shared and the bonds we forged during those challenging times.
    Thank you, Mori Calliope, for this wonderful piece.

    There was someone special to me who had saved me from myself countless times, but they left me because i was getting too much for them to handle. It still makes me upset sometimes, but i know they did the right thing for themself, I just wish i could have let them know how much they meant to me.

      however I did not know that this song had this meaning, but honestly when I listened to it for the first time, even though I was Italian I knew a little English and therefore I understood what was written sometimes, it reminded me of sad things that had happened in the past, honestly thankfully no friends died for me, but knowing that some people have died some friends or girlfriends, it makes me sad, but I know that at least they are in heaven waiting

    Just found Calli and the rest of Holo-en rather recently. First wanna say that the way you sing is beautiful, and the emotions conveyed strike cords every time, this song more than others I will admit however. When I was still in elementary school, there was this girl who was picked on, and I tried to befriend her, we'd go out to a small wooded area of the school and she'd want to do a sort of character roleplay as the kids from "Bridge to Terabithia." Never got into it, but went with it since it seemed to make her happy. One day she kind of just disappeared, no explanation, no warning, nothing.
    I'm in my 20's now and I still think about her occasionally, and pray that she is doing well. This song just reminds me of her, and it looks like there is many others who listened to you and felt similar feelings. So thanks Calli, this was awesome. And whatever inspired you to write and sing this masterpiece, I pray that you have peace with it now, keep on keepin on.

    **End of a Life - Calliope Mori Lyrics:**
    We’d run
    right through
    those nights
    I’ll never find my way back to you
    inside this labyrinth of lights
    there was madness
    in the meaning
    never laughless
    we were screaming at the
    top of our lungs
    to the numbness
    this city never died.
    I’ll fly
    no proof
    those heights
    I’ll never find another chance
    to say
    hey, thanks for saving my life
    I was hopeless
    it was stinging
    running roadless
    we were singing at the
    top of our lungs
    to the numbness
    this city never died.
    What was the root of it all?
    …I couldn’t say.
    used to jump and then fall,
    rugged and cliched.
    Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
    No use in trying to find friends,
    cuz in the end nobody sticks around
    It’s when you shoved yourself into a crowded place
    that turned around and found yourself
    in love in outer space
    Cue the reckless nights, no strings,
    laughing at our own dreams…
    Just what the hell was so funny?
    Bark up the wrong tree, stumble,
    used to falling great heights
    amidst the concrete jungle,
    singing cuz it felt right
    we mixed the ennui and troubles
    rhyming our discontent
    and though it’s history,
    I can’t forget the time that we spent
    convinced that this could mean another end
    exists between real and pretend
    a twisted alter-fictions where I
    missed my chance, did not ascend and
    Disappearing into the mist of “never happened”
    is the me that I can never befriend
    …I let it go.
    fade in, fade out
    this crazy dream,
    without a direction,
    floating aimlessly
    there’s nothing left
    back there for me
    breathe in,
    but it won’t stop the rain from pouring
    We’d run
    right through
    those nights
    I’ll never find my way back to you
    inside this labyrinth of lights
    there was madness
    in the meaning
    never laughless
    we were screaming at the
    top of our lungs
    to the numbness
    this city never died.
    But was there ever a soul inside?
    Chasing fireflies
    between the soaring high-rises
    left a trail behind
    defined it “wasted time of our lives”
    silent singer, overworked and underpaid
    chinks an office is a coffin
    until off is where you’re laid
    yet a though persists,
    an optimist who ought to be afraid
    saw the “nothing wrong” in writing songs
    behind the lonely shade
    is the world a sadder place
    without the the words that you conveyed?
    When the ladder fell and shattered
    every bar that we had played?
    Does it matter in the end
    the sound diminished and decayed
    and your friends grew tired of fantasy
    you’re wishing they had stayed?
    You don’t get to say “I miss you”
    you watched your heroes fade
    into the rear view-mirror of the villain you portrayed
    Stop the pity party, listen,
    you don’t get to be dismayed
    you don’t get to be emotional,
    feel blessed you got it made
    these the best of years of life
    because you chose to make a trade
    recollect the days
    you hoped and prayed for this
    What is there to miss?
    fade in, fade out
    this hazy dream
    without a direction,
    roaming aimlessly,
    there’s nothing left
    back there for me
    pretend it’s the end of a
    made up story
    I’ll fly
    no proof
    those heights
    I’ll never find another chance
    to say
    hey, thanks for saving my life
    I was hopeless
    it was stinging
    driving roadless
    we were singing at the
    top of our lungs
    to the numbness
    this city never died.
    I’ll say goodbye to the soul inside.
    (and yet somehow)
    (there was romance)
    (in our self-hate)
    (“we’ve got now chance”)
    (in this light maze)
    (but let’s hold hand)
    (through the night haze)
    (we’ll run so fast)
    (‘til the school chime)
    (‘til the train runs)
    (we know it’s time)
    (we’re the sane ones)
    (waking up now)
    (to the real life)
    (let me daydream)
    (‘til the next night)
    I’ll keep waiting
    I’ll keep waiting for you
    Waking up now
    to my real life
    let me daydream
    ‘til the next flight
    drowning so long
    I got older
    now the crowd’s gone
    is it over?
    is it over…?

I sometimes think that I'm just an extra person for someone's group.

    Well cause everyone is talking about what this meant to them I’ll explain mine
    This song to me is about the old childhood memories you had with friends and wishing you could go back to them which is the fading in and out (back to reality). But it’s also about growing old and how life changes and the roaming aimlessly is when you don’t have a true goal to follow you are just walking to find out where you end up.
    The part that hit me the hardest was “I’ll never find another chance to say thanks for saving my life” that one I could relate to so much cause when I was at the lowest part of my life and my parents disowned me and called me a failure a disappointment that my dream was dumb and even told me to kill myself once I was on the verge of losing it. And during my lowest I bumped into a friend that saved me he was very friendly always caring and he made me feel like I had value and said what I made was cool and that what I did and had a passion for I should follow (Game design & computer science) which actually reignited my flame for that again but one month he started to act really strange and I knew something was off and the week that I was going to ask if everything was alright and that I can help him… no that I will help him… he… killed himself… and that’s the moment I’ll never be able to thank him for saving me because before him helping me unknowing I had a date I was going to kill myself and because of him I never attempted on that date… all I can do now is follow my dream and carry the memories of him so that he won’t die because I believe someone only dies once they are forgotten and for anyone who doesn’t think they are anything you are something to someone they might not have told you. You might think you’re death won’t effect anyone but it effects people who truest cared about you. And if you need help ask for it your friends or someone even a stranger because the most painful thing is noticing something wrong and not being able to save them I still hate myself to this day that I couldn’t save him and I want to cry and cry but my friend if he knew I cried so much over his death I don’t think he would’ve done it if he knew I would’ve cried that much but to pay him back for saving me I have to live my life to the fullest and if there is an afterlife then I know he is waiting there so when I arrive I can tell him about my entire life even if he watched it all he would still sit there and listen to me…

      Wow. That's a very emotional story, as well as inspirational. I'm so happy you made it through it and I'm sorry for your friend though he's already living on through you and the story of how he saved your life. I hope your passion for Game design/Computer science and VTubing take you to amazing places.

    Calli probably has one of the best discography i’ve seen in a while, every single one of her song has it’s on uniqueness, and just like her, her songs are timeless. Especially this one, it may just be my preference, but I feel like I wouldn’t get tired of this song. Her songs are always like a breath of fresh air, I hope more people hear her songs.

    Dammit Calli. This one really hits.
    It's so bittersweet, and here's what I think about it:
    We always make decisions in life, be it bad or good, and each decision will drastically change what happens to us in the future. You are always changing. Regardless, you reached where you are now. Every now and then, you reminisce the old times where maybe you were with your best friends, or maybe it was one of the best times of your life. But then you wish you could just go back to those happy times, but you can't. And that's just how it is. We can only cherish these memories and continue to keep making new ones.

      _Greatful,_ intended and taken to mean "full of greatness."
      I could offer a more standard alternative, but the word has such an earnest feel that it's perfect the way it is.
      You rock, friend. Thank you.

    No flashy lights, no spitting dis track, no extreme highs and lows in rythm, or top-/bass-line, just a raw, delicate and beautiful piece of art about all the small tragedies of life.
    This jazzy sound really made up to the song and was so refreshing.

    Calli I want to apologize to you:
    I was very jealous of you and your success, because, in a lot of ways, you are the type of person I wanted to be.
    When I first met you, I was a horrible guy: bitter and resentful to the extreme... The only emotions I was able to understand were fear and hate, so I wasn't the best fan for you and I acted like a jerk in your karaoke streams.
    My envy towards you was very twisted, and I though it was better if I stopped watching your content. I didn't want to ruin the fun for your fans, and also the worst part of me would not allow me to have a good time with you.
    So I took the decision to solve the problems of my past once and for all, and finally be free of my hate and resentment. In fact, I decided to listen to the bands you liked as a teenager, and I had a good time with those albums... But specially with My Chemical Romance, which I became a hardcore fan! The hidden story of The Black Parade was the final thing I needed to overcome my own darkness, and make my way towards the light.
    After that, I put all the pieces of my heart back togheter, and I was ready to be a more kind and mature person... or as much as I can be at the moment lol. My life got a 180° turn and, for the first time in years, I'm truly happy with who I am.
    I don't feel anger, resentment or envy towards you or anyone else, anymore and well... What I'm trying to say is that you indirectly push me outside the black abyss my life was, and force me to change into a better person.
    Right now, I'm watching you streams again, and I'm having a lot fun with the deadbeats as well! There's a lot things I need to catch up so I can be a proper fan for you, but I'm making good progress in that regard.
    The only thing left to say is thank you... Thank you for your hardwork and your talent. Thank you for being the light in my darkest time. And thank you for being the person who you are.
    All the love and good fortune for you, and all the people important to you too. Let's have a lot of fun memories from now on!!
