Lyrics

- Realm of Light -

Ooh
It's this time of the year
A very so merry night we hold dear
So many, so many regrets bring me to tears
Not many, not many notice nor care

Oh, oh, oh,
My savior
Oh, oh, oh
Why does a common fire hold so much power?

If only we could be forever naïve and pure
If only we could lead painless futures
If only there could be a forgiving world

- Realm of Darkness -

Maybe that was when
I chose to stay fallen

Lights
A star
A voice
A twisted thought

A touch
A kiss
A distorted dream

Ripples (ripples)
A well (a well)
A stone (a stone)
A multiplying desire (desire)

A fruit (a fruit)
A sin (a sin)
A holy mother

I'm infected, I'm infected
You have invaded and re-created me

Stepped over my body
Found a sunny spot
Curled into a ball
Spinning out the silk
From my head to toe

Inside the warm cocoon, I dreamt to be like you
Though I know there's no undo
What do I have left to lose?

Split
A sky
An earth
I fell into a crack (a crack)

A birth (a birth)
An egg (an egg)
A freshly opened membrane
A cell
A rot
A face returned to ashes
An art
A wound
A sentient canvas

Breaking, breaking, breaking the shell
Breaking out, oh break it now
Show me how, show me how
Listen up, my broken child
Let's lament, let's lament
The life, the death, the good, the bad
The never ending curse we cast

Control, control, control, release
Control, betray, control, let go
Conceal, reveal, unreal, surreal
Invoke, evoke, decode, reload
Let's lament, let's lament
The past that only got to live in the incomplete holy land

Celestial (ayiah)
We're astral (ayiou)
I'm reborn (le rheaiah)
Total liberation (katre o lamenta)
My tender skin
A vagitus song (essential)

I breathed (eventual)
And screamed (eternal)
From my new lungs (inevitable freeing of the soul)

Trivia

• The song is split into two parts in the game, with the first part being called the Realm of Light, and the latter called the Realm of Darkness.
  • This references the concept of dual realms seen in Demian: The Story of a Boyhood.
• The point at which the two songs split divides the song into 3/7ths (World of Light) and 4/7ths (World of Darkness), likely as a reference to the first White Nights and Dark Days incident.
• Mili has also uploaded an Acapella version of the song to their YouTube channel.
• Between Two Worlds—along with In Hell We Live, Lament—later received a Let's Lament variant.
• A slightly muffled version of Realm of Darkness plays when viewing The One Who Shall Grip Sinclair's Identity Story.
• As part of the 2025 HamHamPangPang x Mili collaboration event, this song received official merchandise featuring Sinclair as the character in the cover art.
