October SOTW 1 - A Turtle's Heart

Mili recently released their first album opening with a new original: A Turtle's Heart.  At first I just simply liked the song for it's musical elements.  Not to mention Mili is currently my favorite group.
The thing with music by Mili is that the lyrics usually are not set to have a form that people are used to hearing in modern pop music.  The tunes are usually through-composed (no repeating verses or chorus) and the lyrics are not set to necessarily rhyme.  The composers are Japanese, so even though English pronunciation is good, the melody may sound strange for the words to most people.  Only hearing it a couple times, I just simply enjoyed what I could hear and interpret.  But then... I recently looked up the lyrics.  And decided that I should start posting again.  Now that I know what is being said, this song means so much more to me.  After my short period of silence, this song made me decide to keep posting.

I couldn't find the song just by itself, so here's the whole album.  (yay)
