    This is the song equivalent of him screaming and falling off the chair, isn’t it? 😉

    Damn, that chorus about Shinigami was super badass.

      Ikr. He stops everything to tell us that we control our own lives, not God or fate.

      Right? I sound stupid saying this, but it was, like, deep.
      One of my favorite parts, actually: "Very well, I accept shinigami exist/But it's no God who judges life/The ones who gives value over life and death/are humans themselves." Gives me shivers every time.

    English Lyrics.
    [L]
    Every fact that I thought I knew
    Is subverting me
    Deserting me
    Every truth I was sure was true
    Is on shaky ground
    Has come unwound
    What if the things I see
    Are not as they appear
    Are impossible, yet clear
    How can I deny it?
    Always only believed what was
    Right in front of me
    What I could see
    Shinigami are real because
    It's the only way
    The only way
    When all other explanations
    Really don't explain
    No matter how insane
    You are left with only
    The cold, hard truth
    Can't shut it down
    You can't change it
    You can't turn it off
    Or turn it 'round
    Can't rearrange it
    The cold, hard truth
    A ragged scar
    To remind you never forget
    The way things are
    I won't let who I used to be
    How I used to think
    Get me out of sync
    I'll turn into a different me
    Not so cynical
    Not so clinical
    Light is willing to risk it all
    Defying all the odds
    If I must, I'll fight the gods
    'Til our war is over
    The cold, hard truth
    Can't lock it out
    You can't change it
    True or false, no
    Shadow of a doubt
    Can't rearrange it
    The cold, hard truth
    Is my north star
    So I know I'll live and I'll die
    The way things are
    Frame by frame
    I see this movie in black and white
    Shot by shot
    Minute by minute, just me and Light
    The cold, hard truth
    The way things are
    I can't change it
    Even if the truth
    Seems too bizarre
    I can't change it
    The cold, hard truth
    Is my north star
    So no matter what he might try
    Shake the heavens
    Shatter the sky
    I know we must both live and die
    The way things are

    I’d previously thought L was shortchanged on the song front - frustrating as he’s my favourite character. So I was thrilled to find he had a whole song I didn’t know about.

    Before you ask, no there is not an English version of this song. Either it was written after the demo or was just not included in the album.

      I was talking to someone on an old (now deleted) video of the entire musical, and they gave me a link to a google drive folder with the music in it. I believe they had contact with one of the original writers.

    Is it unwavering or unchanging? I’ve seen it called both.

    • @sol_victus
      @sol_victus 3 роки тому +7

      The title in Japanese is 揺るがぬ真実; 揺るがぬ roughly translates as unwavering/unchanging/unshakeable, so both are correct.
