KETSUNOPOLIS 6 [Album]
Lyrics & Composition: Ketsumeishi
From the things we've felt, from what we've loved
the words resonating directly in our hearts
They become the strength for us to sing
A pure white paper gets dyed in images
There are things we can't fully express and things we can't fully hear
and things we can't fully see by just judging the surface
so we keep singing
We'll throw our anger and joy into it
There are things we wanna convey, so we sing
We grasp our mic, hoping that it'll reach you
Sometimes questioning ourselves, preaching the right way of life
and wanting you to feel something
If a little courage can support you
if you'll smile gently tomorrow too
then I'll sing like myself more than anyone else again
I'll connect hearts using words with love
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but things we want to say
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but what we haven't heard enough of
We imagine them, then they disappear: Huge wishes and dreams
Struggling and then going on. Every day is like this
I've kept believing in the power of singing and the words they convey up to today
Through my mic, I keep singing love and that'll atone for my sins
If this vast world will start changing even a bit, then it'll be for peace
Because today again, just for you to smile, for some reason we'll sing our songs
If we're one of the chosen, then we'll gladly pour our passion into our mics
You truly get us, so we'll send it to you
Enduring and bearing is our duty too
If you keep wanting us
then we'll keep singing forever
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but things we want to say
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but what we haven't heard enough of
Insults and wannabe-tough songs just spoil the mood
We're fed up with them. Could you just stop? I wanna sing
like myself more about things with meaning
And I wanna grasp something with intent there
Like pointing my finger at something wrong with the world
If I hold my mic but don't say anything, that'd be a sin
Let the feelings they can't steal reach
those I wanna tell. Let them roar in your ears
I grasp my pen again and search for words
Today again a long night breaks
And I put them on sound, putting in my soul
Hearts dyed so many times
Even if the song doesn't resonate with you
even if it's meaningless for you now
let them be shining words someday
Let it be words that fill your dried heart
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but things we want to say
Why do we sing? Just as we feel
Because there's nothing but what we haven't heard enough of
Why do we sing...?
Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Ketsumeishi
Kanjita kotogara aishita mono kara
Kokoro ni moro ni hibiita kotoba wa
Sore wa orera ga utau chikara to naru
Junpaku no kami wa imeeji ni somaru
Iikirenai koto kikikirenai mono
Uwabe men de kurabe mikirenai koto ga
Aru kara orera utaitsuzukeru
Ikari yorokobi soko ni butsukeru
Tsutaetai koto ga aru kara utau
Anata ni todoke to maiku wo tsukamu
Toki ni mizukara toi hito no michi wo toki
Soshite nanika kanjite hoshii
Chiisa na yuuki sasae ni nareba
Ashita mo yasashii egao de areba
Mata dare yori mo ore rashiku utau
Ai aru kotoba de kokoro wo tsunagu
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Iitarinai koto bakkari dakara
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Kikitarinai mono bakkari dakara
Egaite wa kieru dekai negai to yume
Mogaite tsuzukeru mainichi ga kore
Utau koto tsutaeru kotoba no chikara shinjitsuzuke kyou made
Maiku wo tooshi ai wo utai tsuzukeru koto de tsumi wo tsugunai
Kono hiroi sekai ga sukoshi demo kawarihajimeru nara heiwa no tame ni
Naze nara kyou mo kimi ga warau tame dake ni nazeka orera uta utau
Ebareshi mono naraba yorokonde maiku ni komeru jounetsu wo
Shin de toraete kureru kimira ni mukeru
Koraete taete iku koto mo gimu
Kimi ga orera motometsuzukeru nara
Zutto orera utaitsuzukeru
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Iitarinai koto bakkari dakara
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Kikitarinai mono bakkari dakara
Waruguchi waruburi kyoku kibun gaisu
Unzari yamete kunnai? Jibun rashiku
Utaitai motto imi no aru koto wo
Tsukamitai soko ni ishi no aru mono wo
Tatoeba "yo no okashii" ni taishi yubi wo sasu
Maiku mochi iwanai nara sore tsumi to naru
Ubaenai kimochi tsutaetai hito ni
Todoke todoroke kimi no mimimoto e
Mata pen nigiri kotoba sagashiteru
Kyou mo nagai yoru akashiteku
Soshite oto ni noseru tamashii komeru
Sono kokoro ikue nimo someru
Tatoe sono uta ga hibikanakutemo
Ima no anata niwa imi ga nakutemo
Itsuka hikaru kotoba de are
Kawaita kokoro mitasu kotoba to nare
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Iitarinai koto bakkari dakara
Orera naze utau? Kanjita mama
Kikitarinai mono bakkari dakara
Orera naze utau...
