The music of Sound Horizon is generally presented in omnibus style; all of their releases have been in the form of concept albums. For tie-up material and releases without an overarching original story, the group performs under the name Linked Horizon. Both male and female vocals are utilized within Sound Horizon, with some singers being frequent collaborators. Usage of spoken word sections in the form of narration is common in their songs and can be heard in a variety of different languages. This narration is often reminiscent of anime due to the involvement of prominent voice actors/actresses in the group. A number of stylistic influences are also apparent in their music; these include progressive/symphonic rock, jazz, pop, opera, and metal. The group's lyrics are often mysterious and metaphorical and contain a variety of fantastical themes.

蒼と白の境界線
Sound Horizon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
心地良い潮風が頬を撫でる
ここから見える景色が好き
海と空が同じ蒼で出来きているから・・・
それは愛しき日々 今でもよく覚えてる
いつも肩車してもらってたよね
パパの背中は 何て大きかったんだろう・・・
少女は父親が大好きだった
父親は勇敢な船乗りだった
いつも優しかった いつも笑っていた
海の向こうの話を聞かせてくれた
少女の小さな地図は
いつもその話でいっぱいだった・・・
覚えてるわ パパの話
白い鯨を見てみたい
双子島にも行ってみたい
潮風に揺られどこまでも・・・
大人達は皆 分かってはくれない
小さな身体には収まりきらない
大きな夢があるんだ
私は 絶対船乗りになるんだ・・・
覚えてるわ パパの話
歌う人魚を見てみたい
珊瑚の樹海にも行ってみたい
潮風に揺られどこまでも・・・
こんな晴れた日は
白い紙飛行機を飛ばそう
あの蒼い水平線の向こうまで・・・
何色にでも染まる白は 明日の私だ
境界線なんて何処にも無い
真っ直ぐ蒼に溶けこんでゆけ
どこまでも どこまでも・・・
その紙飛行機は
潮風に乗って飛んでゆく
どこまでも どこまでも・・・
～ 602ペ－ジ 『 蒼と白の境界線 』
The opening of Sound Horizon's 「蒼と白の境界線」is all about the singer's love of the ocean. She reminisces about the days when her father would give her piggyback rides, and they would watch the sea and the sky. She held a map in her small hands, filled with stories of far-off lands that her father would tell her of. Her father was a brave sailor who would always regale her with tales of adventure beyond the horizon. He was the person she loved the most, along with the vast blue ocean that he sailed on.
As she grows older, her yearning to experience the world beyond the horizon grows, having big dreams that set her apart from the other kids around her. The grown-ups around her don't understand the depth of her desires, but this doesn't stop her from pursuing her future plans with passion. The white color that the singer speaks of has something pure and simple – her steady resolve to become a sailor and live out her wildest dreams, wherever they may take her. She wishes to become a part of the boundless blue, where the sky and the ocean overshadow the narrow borders that separate humans.
The song is about breaking free of the limitations set upon us by society and growing into what we desire to become. It speaks of ambition, courage, and hope in the face of uncertainty, all of which are represented by the vastness of the ocean and the endless horizon.

この曲を聴くと思い出す。
第二次領土拡大遠征のZepp福岡で、Revo陛下が演奏してくれたなー。
MCでこの曲のストーリーを解説しつつ「夢を追いかけなさい。諦めなければいつか叶う」と言ってくれたから、夢に向かって進む勇気をもらえたんだよなー。
あの日から叶った夢はたくさんあるけれど、この曲を聴いてまた新しい夢に向かって進もうと思う。

やっぱこれ愛という名の咎に使われてるメロディだ。Moiraに関係してるのかな？国王生誕祭でエレフが弾いてたから？
@user-rs6bv9rl3i
アクアリウス 情景としてイメージしやすい曲だからかな？
