Lyrics

「Aメロ」 花が寝る夜　波に映った星 うねる月が足をくすぐる 流れる光に沿って行ってみたら 耳に囁いた君に届くかな 「Bメロ」 今手をつないでも精一杯抱きしめてみても 空は秋に満ちるんだ 「１サビ」 指先でゆらゆらとその動きが 止まった時計の針に 踏み込んだ 固まった願いさえ 離れた今は その笑顔を 知ってるよ 「間奏」 (fecel, lemienne, phei, seire, lilutia, ei finceq) 「Aメロ」 光歌う夜　目に映った空 さわやかな香りがくすぐる 足跡を合わせて歩いてみたら 私を見ていた君に届くかな 「Bメロ」 ずっと手をつないでも君について行ってみても 空は雨に染まるんだ 「２サビ」 君を呼び出した聲 (こえ) の形が 乾いた色を濡らして 強く叫んだ声が散らばった今は その言葉を 知ってるよ 「Cメロ」 君はわかってるかな 教えてくれた 戻らないその幸せは… 「Aメロ」 花が寝る夜　波に映った星 光った月が消えてゆく 「ラストサビ」 指先でゆらゆらとその動きが 止まった時計の針に 踏み込んだ 雲が描いた列車そよぐ髪 その笑顔を 知ってるよ

[Verse 1] As the flowers rest, and the waves reflect the stars above The waxing moon incites my wanderlust If I trace its trickles of light Will I come to you like you asked me to? [Pre-Chorus] Even with all the handholding and tight embraces The sky will still turn red, and the leaves will still fall [Chorus] My fingers reach in longingly To get the clock ticking once again With my wishes frozen in time and long forgotten Your fleeting smile Is all I know [Interlude] (fecel, lemienne, phei, seire, lilutia, ei finceq) [Verse 2] As the moonlight dances on the waves, and my eyes reflect the sky above A pleasant scent tickles my fancy If I walk in step with the wafting breeze Will I be able to go back to you when you only had eyes for me? [Pre-Chorus] Even if I let you hold my hand and lead me forever The sky would still well, and the rain would still fall [Chorus] My silent voice calls out your name longingly To return luster to my faded paints With my voice hoarse and long ran dry Your fleeting words Are all I know [Bridge] Do you still remember What you showed me A glimpse of happiness, gone forever [Verse 3] As the flowers rest, and the waves reflect the stars above The waning moon vanishes into the dark [Chorus] My fingers reach in longingly To get the clock ticking once again With the clouds forming a track from me to you, and the wind rustling my hair Your fleeting smile Is all I know

Trivia

• "VIOLET" is the only Hololive original song whose vocalist also did the illustrations for the song's music video.
• The numbers flashed in the music video (403, 520, 913, 1016, and 1129) hold significance to the people who worked on it. For Ina, 520 and 913 refer to her birthday and debut date respectively.
• ​The whispered words during the song's interlude, "fecel, lemienne, phei, seire, lilutia, ei finceq", are in a language invented by LUMINA. According to Ina, the words mean, "scars, fireflies, empty, music, sounds, and childhood".
• Counting the number of letters in fecel, lemienne, phei, seire, lilutia, and finceq and concatenating them into an RGB hex code yields #584576, a shade of violet. However, Ina has stated that this is merely a coincidence.
• Ina performed VIOLET during Link Your Wish Day 1.
• The "monologues" are English translations of scripture from the Holy Bible. "403" is Proverbs 10:12, "520" is Job 23: 10, "913" is Matthew 11:28, "1016" is 1 Corinthians 13:13 (the conclusion of the description of "Agape" or the Greek word for the highest and most perfect form of Love), and "1129" is 1 Timothy 6:7.
