Wir fliegen is Disc 1, Track 13 on the XenobladeX Original Soundtrack and Track 4 on the Xenoblade Chronicles X Soundtrack Selection. The melody at 1:00 is based upon a motif from no6=LP. X-BT2 is a version of this track with the vocals replaced by a synthesiser.
The track plays when the player activates Overdrive in battle (in both Xenoblade Chronicles X and Xenoblade Chronicles 2). Only the first two sections of the song play in-game; the loop occurs after the repeating section.
Lyrics[edit]
German[edit]
Die Wolkenkratzer erobern den vor Sternen glitzernden Himmel
Wir laufen durch die Häuserschlucht,
damit wir echtes Licht nicht verlieren
Unsere verletzten Herzen verschwinden in der Finsternis
Wir sind wie verschneite Spuren im Schnee
Wir sind wie wirbelnde Blätter im Wind
※
The time has come
Wir hören tick tack
Die Uhr tickt
Die Reise in die Zukunft
Tick tack, die Uhr tickt
The time has come
Wir hören tick tack
Die Uhr tickt
In leichtem Licht fliegen wir zu dir
※ Repeat
Wir schlagen den Himmel wie ein Mattglas ein
weil er dich in deinem Zimmer einsperrt
Wir fliegen im Sternenhimmel Hand in Hand,
weil wir Kämpfer für die Freiheit sind
Wir schlagen den Spiegel, in dem sich der Himmel verzerrt
Wir fliegen im Sternenhimmel Hand in Hand,
weil wir Kämpfer für die Freiheit sind
Du auch
English (unofficial)[edit]
The skyscrapers conquer the sky of glittering stars
We run through the gorge of houses,
So that we don't lose real light
Our injured hearts disappear in the darkness
We are like traces covered in snow
We are like whirling leaves in the wind
※
The time has come
We hear tick tock
The clock is ticking
The journey into the future
Tick tock, the clock is ticking
The time has come
We hear tick tock
The clock is ticking
In a dim light we are flying to you
※ Repeat
We shatter the sky like a frosted glass
Because it locks you up in your room
We fly in the starry sky hand in hand,
Because we are fighters for freedom
We hit the mirror, in which the sky is distorted
We fly in the starry sky hand in hand,
Because we are fighters for freedom
You too
