Alchemy is an insert song for the third episode of the anime series Angel Beats. It is performed by Girls Dead Monster in the anime series, and is sung by Iwasawa's singing voice actor. It is included in the album "Girls Dead Monster: Keep the Beats!" which features most of the band's performances. It is also mentioned by Yui as the song that really "Pumps her up"
Mugen ni ikitai Mugen ni ikiraretara subete kanau Demo irun na mono ga atashi wo oikondeku Ikiru nokori jikan wo Yume no zahyou yukue Zenbu daiji na mono na no ni
I want to live forever
And if I could live forever everything would come true But everything I have keeps driving me During the time I have left to live
Where can I find my dreams? Even though everything is precious to me
Iisa kokora de chotto amai mono tabete ikou Sou iu shikou teishi bakari tokui ni natta
It’s no problem; I’ll just have a little snack right here I took pride when I quit thinking like that
Aruite kita michi furikaeru to Iya na koto bakkari de mou unzari da yo Fureru mono wo kagayakashite yuku Sonna michi wo ikite kitakatta yo
Looking back on the path I walked I’ve had enough of only having the things I hate The things I have experienced brighten the path that I wanted to live
Mushou ni ikitai Asette bakari no hibi subete kiesou Demo sabotte mo miru datte tsukarechau ja nai Sonna mujun shikou atashi atama dokka Shiranai uchiutta mitai da
I want to live as much as I can The days of only hurrying all vanish But I try to skip even though I’m not completely exhausted I had such contradictory thoughts I guess I didn’t know that I got hit somewhere on the head
Ikka kokora de chotto byouin he itto kou Zutto okiterareru kusuri ha oitemasen ka?
It’s okay; I’ll go to a nearby hospital for a bit Could you give me medicine to keep me up forever?
Bosaato tsuttatteru dake de mou Kaseki ni natte shimaisou nan da yo Darekara mo wasurerareta you na Kusunda sonzai ni natte shimau yo
Even if I just stand up I’m already turning into a fossil Like being forgotten by everyone I’ll become a dusty existence
Iisa koko de chotto konjou wo misete yaru Jibun de hoo tataite sonzai no shoumei he
It’s no problem; I’ll show you a bit of my will-power I slap my own face as proof of my existence
Aruite kita michi furikaeranai
Iya na koto bakkari demo mae he susume Fureru mono wo kagayakashite yuku
Sonna sonzai ni natte
Miseru yo
Not looking back on the path I walked
Even if it’s only the things I hate I’ll move forward The things I have experienced
brighten the existence that I’ll become
I'll show them to you
