Some listeners may find themselves empathizing with the way one becomes sick at heart precisely because they care for the one they love.
This is a Vocaloid track soothed by the pure vocals of flower and Kaai Yuki.

The lyrics, inspired by the Trolley Problem—a thought experiment in ethics—are thought-provoking.
Every sharp, forceful word strikes straight to the heart, making this an aggressive piece.
