Letra:

とおいとおい むかしばなし
それはきっと あすのはなし

"もう 飛べやしないさ"
落ち続ける夜から醒めた 白い部屋の片隅で
彷徨ってる 自由をなくして
塞ぐ 倒れ込んだまま

ああ 細い片翼が ああ ないんだ
叫んだ 心が止まらなくて

機械みたいに きしむ僕を
現実が笑った
その時 誰かが囁いたんだ

「あなたに あげた つばさ」
「わたしの ゆめみた せかい」

羽ばたきたい 大空へ
嗚呼 風が啼く
止まらないで 高く高くへ
幾度夢願い 祈った雲の果て

終わりを越えて 高く高くへ
(とべるよ)
かけがえのない ガラクタの羽で

"星を見失った"

(まだ あきらめられないのに)

紛れ住む 人間のセカイ
一つの羽じゃ飛べない もう飛びたくない

色彩の 半分だけで
底を這うこともできなかった

「わたしには もう いらないの」
「かわりに ひかりは きみがみてよ」

苛立つほどに青かった エデンで泣いてた
その時 掴んでくれた 誰かの手 嗚呼

あなたがくれた 希望で
約束の羽で今 飛ばなくちゃ

ああ 共に往く ああ 地平の先へ
壊れるまで 高く高くへ
今の僕は 片翼でいい

飛べるよ 信じて 飛べるよ その先へ
飛べるよ 楽園 永遠の 彼方まで

きっと不完全でも
(ああ ああ)

遥か 彼方まで

Toby Fox: (UNDERTALE / DELTARUNE MINI NEWSLETTER: Spring 2024, excerpt)

FALLEN WING
A new song by Toby Fox & Camellia + Amane Kanata

Have you heard of Virtual Youtubers...?

Recently, I had the opportunity to create a song for AMANE KANATA of HOLOLIVE!

A couple years ago, Kanata had played through UNDERTALE for the first time on stream. Famously, she had a really difficult time beating Sans, fighting him for dozens of hours straight until she won. (Personally, I was moved seeing her cry at the Pacifist ending.)

I always liked her singing voice, I found it to be very distinct and kind of personal sounding. Combined with her Angel aesthetic, I felt I had the potential to make a really cool song with her... So, I asked her... And... It happened!

Thanks to Camellia's amazing production skills and Kanata's distinct voice, the song ended up being really special.

Actually, I liked it so much even from the instrumental demo stage, I felt like "if this idea gets rejected, maybe I can use it in DELTARUNE..."

Now, let me explain a little bit.

Although most of the time she's a goofy streamer, Kanata has a dream: to be taken seriously as an artist and musician. But, there was an issue... She was losing hearing in one of her ears. For someone whose dream is to be a singer, there's nothing more terrifying than losing this sense. She felt like she might even give up singing forever.

Actually, this resonated with me. Because I've also had issues as well. Issues with one of my wrists. It stops you from drawing, from making music, from writing, from programming, basically from making a game.

There's times where it feels like your hopes and dreams are simply slipping away from you. That the things you wanted to achieve are floating away from you in the sky while you lie there, fallen in a crater, your wing torn off, never to grow back. Bitterness grows, and you feel like you may never leave the ground again.

But

That's not true.

You can still fly.

That's what this song is about.

Just before the intense part of the song, there's whispering. These are like the magic words that let you do anything. And as long as you say them you cannot lose.

Even if you lose a piece of yourself, even if it feels like you can't get up anymore, you can. You can fly with one wing. You can fly without any wings.

So, keep singing.

Keep singing.

Camellia's arrangement was super cool, so listen to it by itself for a sec too!
