Dream Catchers

"What a beautiful moment!" JiJi exclaimed. The crowd just kept cheering after the song ended. A lot of people taking pictures and as well as filming, not just Spirited Away on stage but also the beautiful view around them. "Now, let me tell ya'll something, we were formed because of the two songs that were played through the telecom not long ago. Not all have heard them, I'm assuming from those confused faces down there."

JiJi laughed as she positioned her black acoustic guitar properly and fixed her ear monitors, John smiled as he set the beatbox beside her. The people who JiJi pointed out laughed as well. "So we thought we should play it again and we are privileged to do that tonight for ya'll." The crowd cheered. "This song is Roger Rabbit."

(JiJi ☆ both)

Is there a right way for how this goes?
You've got your friends
And you've got your foes
They want a piece of something hot
Forget your name like they forgot

Oh, ain't that something?

Some wanna see you crash and burn
And criticize your every word
I'm trying to keep from going insane
Ain't that the way of this whole damn thing

Oh, trying to be something more

Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
No it's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
And it's time for you to walk away
So when you have today
You should say all that you have to say

Say all that you have to say

Is there a right way for being strong?
Feels like I'm doing things all wrong
Still I'm here just holding on
Confess my heart and forgive my wrongs.

Oh, just trying to show you something more

Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
It's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
And it's time for you to walk away
When you have today
You should say all that you have to say

Don't point the blame when you can't find nothing
Look to yourself and you might find something
It's time that we sorted out
All of the things we complain about

So listen close to the sound of your soul
Take back a life we led once before
If it ain't you then who?...
If it ain't you then who's gonna love you?

Nobody's gonna love you if
You can't display a way to capture this
Nobody's gonna hold your hand
And guide you through
It's up for you to understand
Nobody's gonna feel your pain
When all is done
And it's time for you to walk away
When you have today
You should say all that you have to say

So when you have today
Say all that you have to say

"Thank you!" JiJi stood up to keep her her guitar away and went to sit behind the piano that was placed on one side of the stage once again. John moved a bit away to the other side still on the beatbox. Mika set up two mic stands up front in the middle as Ryan held two guitars, his own white one and Mika's light blue one. Mika sat on her stool, fixed her mic and took her guitar from Ryan.

"This is I Wouldn't Mind." Ryan said and they started playing.

(Mika ☆ both)

Merrily we fall
Out of line, out of line
I'd fall anywhere with you
I'm by your side

Swinging in the rain
Humming melodies
We're not going anywhere until we freeze

I'm not afraid, anymore
I'm not afraid

Forever is a long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side

Carefully we're placed for our destiny
You came and you took this heart, and set it free
Every word you write or sing is so warm to me, so warm to me
I'm torn, I'm torn to be right where you are

I'm not afraid, anymore
I'm not afraid

Forever is a long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side
Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile
I wouldn't mind it at all
I wouldn't mind it at all

You so know me
Pinch me gently
I can hardly breathe

Forever is a long, long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side
Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile
I wouldn't mind it at all
I wouldn't mind it at all

"Thank you!" Mika said. Ryan can't help but stare at the girl proudly as he realized that throughout the entire show, he can see her confidence slowly rise and her nervousness to do each song that she has to do, fades away. He smiled.

"So, we've come to the end of the show." JiJi informed. A lot of groans, grumbles and 'aaws' were heard from the crowd. "Now, I know, I know. Although we thought that maybe we should do a group performace as out last song for ya'll before we end this."

The crowd cheered. Ryan stood and replaced his guitar with a mandolin as JiJi kept chatting with the audience. "Now, just so ya'll know, we might mess this one up probably because we had a small amount of time to practice it. It kinda slipped out of our minds that we still had one last song--"

"Actually, you were the only one who forgot that we have one last song, JiJi." John cut her off.

"Y'know John, no one has to know that." JiJi deadpanned. The crowd laughed as well as the rest of the band. "Thank you guys so much for coming to the festival! Thanks to the bands who played since day one! Thanks for the teachers and staff for making this happen! We are Spirited Away and this last song is called Iris!"

The crowd cheered and clapped louder than ever, slowly dying down as they heard them starting to play. Mika quietly took a deep breath in and out before singing.

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

People started shining their lights at them again. Others following, creating a beautiful sight.

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

The lights were so many and beautiful, it's like looking at a sea of stars.

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

The quartet played their instruments with all their hearts and passion. Never in their lives ever thought that they would play in front of a lot of people together as a band. So they made each and every second the best that they can.

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

"Thank you guys so much! Goodnight!"
