histoire

histoire is a song by Fantôme Iris.

It was announced on September 11, 2020, along with its single ; and a snippet was shown a week later during ARGONAVIS Radio Royal Fes #7-8.

It was fully revealed during the Fantôme Iris S-SOL -histoire des vampires- live on September 24, 2020; where it was the main song of the live. Its full version was released the day after.

It is an emotional song, where the band's both fierce and beautiful sounds coexist and its lyrics talk about the band's determination to take their next step. .

According to Arthur on an interview, the song was written by Fantôme as they left Nagoya for the Live Royal Fes; as they believe they aren't of an age to be on a band and that this might be their last chance. It's also about their journey as they search for a place to build their kingdom where humans and vampires can coexist, plus the feelings of everyone in the band.

It is written Mao (SID), composed by Shinji (SID) -who also played the guitars-, arranged by SID, the additional arrangement was in charge of Ryo Sugihara (Idio't-FACTORY) -who was also in charge of all the other instruments and programming-, the bass was played by Sato, the drums by KENZO (Ayabie), the strings by Kouichirou Muroya Strings and the strings scoring was in charge of Ryunosuke Kasai (APDREAM).

It is the titular track for their digital single, histoire, which was released on September 25, 2020 and it is also included in the omnibus album, Gin no Yuri/Banzai RIZING!!!/Hikari no Akuma (Type A), which was released on December 9, 2020 and also on their first album miroir, which was released on September 7, 2022.

Lyrics
Romaji= Nando mo nando mo tashikame atta kono omoi wa Bureru koto naku terashiteru

Tenohira ni nokoru fuan to tōku kanata no kibō Kasane awasetara kakugo ni kawaru made

Ima wa himeta mama de iyou…

Tabidachi no asa ga kite atarashī kaze ga fuitara

Koko kara hajimaru warera no egaku histoire Nagai yoru mo hidoi ame mo zenbu dakishimete

Nando mo nando mo tashikame atta kono omoi wa Bureru koto naku michi wo terasu

Deai to wakare wo kurikaeshi yatto koko made kita yo Ho wo nurashiteru hitosuji no yowasa wa

Sotto mune ni shimatte

Kakegae no nai mono wo suteru itami to hikikae ni

Warera ga te ni shita yuzurenai kirameku histoire Me no mae ni hirogatta ikusen no hikari

Nando mo nando mo tashikame atta kono omoi wa Bureru koto naku michi wo terasu

Koko kara hajimaru warera no egaku histoire Nagai yoru mo hidoi ame mo zenbu dakishimete

Nando mo nando mo tashikame atta kono omoi wa Tabidachi no asa kara zutto

Bureru koto naku michi wo terasu Kanji = 何度も　何度も　確かめ合ったこの想いは ぶれることなく　照らしてる

手のひらに残る不安と　遠く彼方の希望 重ね合わせたら　覚悟に変わるまで

今は　秘めたままでいよう…

旅立ちの朝がきて　新しい風が吹いたら

ここから始まる　我らの描く 長い夜も　ひどい雨も　全部抱きしめて

何度も　何度も　確かめ合ったこの想いは ぶれることなく　未知を照らす

出会いと別れを　繰り返し　やっとここまで来たよ 頬を濡らしてる　一筋の弱さは

そっと　胸にしまって

かけがえのないものを　捨てる痛みと引き換えに

我らが手にした　ゆずれない煌く 目の前に広がった　幾千の光

何度も　何度も　確かめ合ったこの想いは ぶれることなく　未知を照らす

ここから始まる　我らの描く 長い夜も　ひどい雨も　全部抱きしめて

何度も　何度も　確かめ合ったこの想いは 旅立ちの朝から　ずっと

ぶれることなく　道を照らす English = Over and over again, this feeling that we confirmed with each other Shining without blurring

Anxiety that remains in the palm of my hand and a distant hope If you overlap, until you change your mind

Let's keep it hidden for now...

When the morning of departure comes and a new wind blows

The histoire we draw begins here Embrace all the long nights and her heavy rain

Over and over again, this feeling that we confirmed with each other Illuminate the unknown without wavering

Repeated encounters and farewells, I've finally come this far A ray of weakness that wets my cheeks

Gently put it in your chest

In exchange for the pain of throwing away something irreplaceable

Her unyielding sparkling histoire that we have in our hands Thousands of lights spread out before my eyes

Over and over again, this feeling that we confirmed with each other Illuminate the unknown without wavering

The histoire we draw begins here The long night, she embraced the heavy rain

Over and over again, this feeling that we confirmed with each other Ever since the morning of my departure

Light the way without wavering
