[ Lacus reads the lyrics several times. In this fleeting moment, even if it goes against fate, today, I continue to pray...

She doesn't know what was on Haruka's friends' mind as he wrote this, but she thinks she can feel the emotion oozing off it. It certainly reaches her, and it resounds the sentiments she would like to convey. Casting off destiny, and offering a wish for a better tomorrow...

She has to fight down a few emotions before they can get to the tempo part. ]

... I think your friend and I may have a fair bit in common. I think this is the appropriate song to sing today.

No, rather... I want to sing this song.
