夜のレーンに 渋谷の灯り
指を三つの 穴に入れる
助走の音が 床に響く
あなたは後ろで スコアを見ない
大和の踏切 遮断機の音
下りたら二度と 上がるの待たず
小田急に乗って 街を出た日
戻せない事なら もう知っている
手を離す時 もう呼び戻せない
ボールがレーンを 転がってゆく
好きとは言わず この一投を
息を止めたまま 奥を見てる
レーンの奥で ピンが待っている
当たるか溝へ 逸れてゆくか
転がる先は もう指先を
離れて奥へ 委ねるだけ
言葉にすれば 軽くなる意思を
指の重みに 全部乗せる
好きの二文字は 投げる方を選ぶ
届くかどうかは 見てからでいい
返るボールを また持つ時
さっきの一投 もう戻らない
倒れたピンの 数は見ずに
次の構えに 肩を戻す
「好き」とは今夜も 言葉にしない
指を三つの 穴に入れる
投げる形に 全てを乗せて
レーンの奥に 立つ十本

Bolero of the Throw
Akemi
Bolero of the Throw is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays a night when a confession is placed not into words but into a single throw that can never be called back.
A bowling alley in Shibuya after dark, three fingers sliding into the holes, footsteps echoing along the floor, a ball rolling down the lane toward ten waiting pins. The images create a quiet, cinematic scene where the instant a hand lets go becomes a will that stays unspoken.
Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the composure of an adult who refuses the words that would make everything certain, loading her whole meaning onto one irreversible motion of the body, an emotion that shows rather than asks.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era warm lyricism through the amber lights of a bowling alley, a town where the crossing gate comes down, and the single irreversible roll of a ball along the lane.
Her fingers leave the holes, her hand lets go, and the ball rolls toward the far end of the lane. Without counting the fallen pins, she sets her shoulder for the next stance, trusting the throw with what she will not say and leaving the outcome to him.
