The key we've lost is Disc 3, Track 1 on the XenobladeX Original Soundtrack. It is split into two parts: the first plays from the start until 3:13, and the second plays from then until the end.
The first part is the battle music for the final boss in Chapter 12 (for both the first and second phases), and plays in the cutscene before the first phase once Lin agrees to fight, as well as in the cutscene between the two phases.
The second part is the battle music for Ganglion, Gularth, Sylooth, and Mechanoids if the party are on foot when the battle is initiated, as well as the following story battles:
- The Prone Scouts in Chapter 3.
- The Force Seidr in Chapter 11.
The second part also plays during numerous battles in Normal and Affinity Missions, including the following:
- Zealot Glennar and the Prone Fighters during Bozé's Way.
- ST816: Stalio during Bozé's Ignorance.
- Ga Buidhe, Zo Borri, and Zo Fwar during A Challenger Approaches (only on the first attempt).
- Blood-king Gelvo Banth, the Prone Boxes, and the Prone Hearthkeepers during The King of Fear.
- SN333: Jisanne, the Milsaadi Destroyers, and the Milsaadi Corroders during A False Hope.

Lyrics[edit]
(mpi)
Let's find the key we've lost
Just try to live your life
The sun goes down with all my faults
So where's your feeling
And where is your life?
Let's find the key we've lost
Just try to live your life
The sun goes down with all my faults
So where's your feeling
And where is your life?
(Mika Kobayashi)
Let's find the key we've lost
As all the people cry in vain
Just try to live your life
The endless sky where I can fly
Tell me what you're thinking?
Tell me what's your way
The end is always here
This world locked up in a war
There's a voice that saves your heart and my soul
The sun goes down with all my faults
So where's your feeling
And where is your life?
All the clouds, hang dark
No one is ever seen
This world locked up in a war
