Background[]
The background is a grid of dark blue walls that have an opening with a red outline shaped like a key. Lighting comes from each side of the wall and the red outline that pulses on beat. These colors switch during the verses. Occasionally, the walls will get unaligned with each other and the right side will be higher than the left side. During all choruses minus the first, the walls will be separated from each other enough to see the open night sky. There is also a yellow light coming at the bottom of it.
In the intro, the room is darkened (including Keya, who also has a red tint) as it shows the title card which then fades out.
The last chorus is zoomed out into a more exaggerated focal point.
