Lyrics: The nightingale is still locked in the cage The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs An old oak sheltering me from the blue Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves A catnap in the ghost town of my heart She dreams of storytime and the river ghosts Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the Ride Raving harlequins, gigantic toys A song of me a song in need Of a courageous symphony A verse of me a verse in need Of a pure-heart singing me to peace All that great heart lying still In silent suffering Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end What is left for encore Is the same old Dead Boy's song Sung in silence A midnight flight into Covington Woods A princess and a panther by my side These are Territories I live for I'd still give my everything to love you more A song of me a song in need Of a courageous symphony A verse of me a verse in need Of a pure-heart singing me to peace All that great heart lying still In silent suffering Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end What is left for encore Is the same old Dead Boy's song Sung in silence A silent symphony A hollow opus one, two, three Sometimes the sky is piano black Piano black over cleansing waters Resting pipes, verse of bore Rusting keys without a door Sometimes the within is piano black Piano black over cleansing waters All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
It's actually alternating lines: All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing* All that great heart lying still and slowly dying All that great heart lying still on an angel wing*
For everyone wondering: Black Rock Shooter is not an anime(or game for psp) originally atleast. It is a song of vocaloid(don't quote me on vocaloid part though, I remember this part quite vaguely), that's the reason why the lore you may have read differs from source to source(story from game and anime are not even near to close to each other atleast).
@@Shonicheck it's an 8 episode anime, with a 50 minute OVA, two manga (i might be wrong there, i've been told there's two, but i only know of Innocent Soul) and the PSP game. While it's origins by Huke, the artist who created her, are indeed from vocaloid, they are not from a song, but rather a "punk rock" redesign he did of Hatsune Miku, which lead to the eventual creation of BRS. And, to be precise, this version of BRS in the video's image is Insane Black Rock Shooter, who is exclusively from the 8 episode anime, and is not present in the OVA nor the other sources.
@@AwesomeAcidika Go check them out yourself, they all have different stories, because original character comes from a song(checked this one, it is indeed vocaloid song that goes by the same name by Hatsune Miku). That was kinda the point of previous comment, to point out the reason why all of them have conflicting lore.
@@Shonicheck I have the game, the OVA and the anime at my fingertips, I've read the Innocent Soul manga, and I quite enjoy all there is about Black Rock Shooter, thank you. No need to tell me to enjoy my favourite series.
@@baileydombroskie3046 @Bailey_Dombroskie I don't know the name of the animation style, but I think it's the same as Overlord. It actually grows on you as you watch the show.
That's from a time when many youtubers, especially those whose content is 100% other peoples work, weren't able to edit properly cause good editing programs were neither free nor easily pirated. Good old days.
Nightcore is a form of copyright infringement where you pitch up an existing song in Audacity and pretend it's a cute anime girl singing the song. lol It sounds even worse when the original singer was male. Can't forgive these thieves for ruining Anima Libera
@@DracoHandsome Anime Libera can only be listened to nightcored. The original was a mistake and you will fade into oblivion for believing that we are thieves for making a song that sucked into what it should have been.
