Mori Calliope
Non-Fiction
[Verse 1: Gawr Gura]
Some "once upon a time" is not where our myth belongs​ ​​
​​Through the faded lines​ ​​​​of words and rhyme is a hidden song
Though fractured deeply,​ ​​​​worn by sorrows from time and time again
Take my hand and enter our "pretend"

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain: Takanashi Kiara]
By star-lit skies​, endlessly writing​
​Inviting those along
​Lost souls who hear our song when gone astray
Though strife's part of life​, stay unafraid, now
When forces say "behave"
We say instead,​ "Be brave"

[Chorus: All]
In a desperate shout, our souls reach out​
​With pen toward every page​
We ignite, come alive like a starry night
​With a fire no doubts can take away​
​Got no fairy tale where "love prevails"​
Though painful, now we move endlessly on​
​By the light, your spark
Head first, into the dark
[Verse 2: Mori Calliope & Amelia Watson]
​Some "once upon a time"​ ​​​​​is not where a voice gets heard
​Will the faded lines​​ of speeding time make us flightless birds?​
​When pen is running dry, a soul on fire is driven to react​
And when burning flames attack​, we will never fade to black
Though fake, it seems, not a dream or a trick of light​
Always vacancy,​ take a seat​, ​it’s our story's time​
A world is brought to life, through voices five
​And as "real" as they say
Pen as sword, we're choosing fate
We can never lose our way

[Refrain: Ina'nis Ninomae]
By star-lit skies​, endlessly writing​
​Inviting those along
​Lost souls who hear our song when gone astray
Though strife's part of life​, stay unafraid, now
When forces say "behave"
We say instead,​ "Be brave"

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Mori Calliope, Takanashi Kiara, Ina'nis Ninomae, Gawr Gura & *Amelia Watson*]
Defiant 'til the end, I'll stay killing to sing​
​I'll dance in burning embers unyielding
Your love's given me wings​
While learning to remember the good times​ we bring​
Our ocean's finally full of life
*Set every vital piece in motion, now we write*
[Chorus: All]
In a desperate shout, our souls reach out
With pen toward every page
We ignite, come alive like a starry night
With a fire no doubts can take away
Write a fairy tale where "love prevails"
Cliched, maybe, we move joyfully on
By the light, your spark
Hopeless days are just a part of being free
We wrote it all by heart

[Outro: Mori Calliope]
And smile, side by side among the stars​
