EGOIST - 永遠 (Kalia Piano Cover)

“All that lives must die,/Passing through nature to eternity.” (Hamlet 1.2.74-75) — this is the quote that comes to mind when I hear this song (it's not really related to the lyrical content though)

Prepare yourself for lots of EGOIST on this channel because of how much I love them hehe
