Change of Pace

"Change of Pace" is the song Mio is recording in Act 30 when Minako visits the studio. You can download the song here. The lyrics of the song were clearly meant to reflect Beryl's feelings for Endymion, and seem to be her trying to persuade him to forget about Serenity and choose her instead.

English Translation
Step by step, one by one, stepping firmly on the road
The boring days pile on top of one another, in this dazzling world

It takes some boldness to act like other people, worrying only about appearances
Do we have the kind of relationship we can't tell people about, the two of us?

You might be convinced you've gotten hold of the treasure in front of you
But she's going to vanish like an illusion, say goodbye to the girl of convenience

*In the unbearable morning mist of 5 a.m. I repeat the same story
I only want to just cuddle with someone, I want to feel more free
Change of pace

The momentary love is over, the agreement was for one time only, you won't get anywhere
Step by step, one by one, stepping firmly on the road
The boring nights pile on top of one another, in this dazzling age

I just make whatever excuse works and run out, pressed by my quota
Behaving awkwardly, you know, it's ridiculous, the two of us

Looking just at what I see, I feel like I know reality
But in a city accustomed to crowds, you can't live life without doing that

Emotions that permeate my body, I have to be careful of sweet traps
Since life has only just begun, I'm being stingy with the real high points
All the time

*Repeat

I realize the eternal love affair is fate, but I'm taking the long way round
Step by step, one by one, stepping firmly on the road
The rose-colored days pile on top of one another, love you, love me, please
