Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex
Inner Universe (Opening Theme)
Vocals: Origa
Lyrics: Origa/Shanti Snyder
Music: Yoko Kanno


Angels and demons were circling above me
Breaking the hardships and starry ways*
The only one who doesn't know the happiness
is the one who couldn't understand his call

I am Calling Calling now, Spirits rise and falling
To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling, in the depth of longing
To stay myself longer...

Stand alone... Where was life when it had a meaning...
Stand alone... Nothing's real anymore and...

...Endless run...
While I'm alive, I can try not to fall while flying,
Not to forget how to dream... how to love
...Endless run...

Calling Calling, For the place of knowing
There's more that what can be linked
Calling Calling, Never will I look away
For what life has left for me
Yearning Yearning, for what's left of loving

To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling now, Spirits rise and falling
To stay myself longer...
Calling Calling, in the depth of longing
To stay myself longer...

*The booklet has an evident mistake in this line. 
The actual line that is sung should be translated as "Swishing through the hardships and milky ways".
