1つ目は 真夜中に見た夢がきっかけで
どうしようもない衝動に成す術もなく
2つ目は あなただから 意外な言葉のせいで
揺れて揺れて揺れて 隠しきれない
不思議な気持ちが景色を歪めて
私の知らない私を見ていた 目の前に
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I know I need 教えて
確かなものが欲しくて
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I want changing 流され
うつろう季節の中で止まれない
それだけなのに
3つ目は 大切にしてきた考え方で
どうでもいい信頼を築いていただけだった
4つ目は 単純に心変わりと言えば そう
揺れて揺れて揺れて 間違わない
まぶしい光が 心を洗って
どうにもならない私が残っただけ
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I know I need 教えて
確かなものが欲しくて
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I want changing 流され
うつろう季節の中で止まれない
それだけなのに
まぶしい光が 心を洗って
どうにもならない私が残っただけ
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I know I need 教えて
確かなものが欲しくて
愛の 愛に 愛と 愛を
I want changing 流され
うつろう季節の中で止まれない
それだけなのに

UTSUROI
westman8
In January 2025, "westman8" will release its second single "Utsuroi".
Nishihei, a music writer who belongs to the pop band "balconny" based in Fukuoka and active nationwide, has produced and provided many songs, and has begun releasing them under the name "westman8" by using AI to rearrange his own songs.
The theme of this work is "the conflict caused by the unreasonableness felt while living in society". The protagonist of the lyrics is a woman in her early 20s, expressing the vague feeling in her heart and her strong will against it.
The genre he aimed for was "Western music, K-pop, and dance pop", and he was particularly particular about the rhythm of the Japanese words in the chorus melody. It is a medium tempo song with a good groove.
The vocal part is adopted as it was created by AI, and some mistakes in the words are left as they are.
In addition, "PixAI" is used for the jacket photo, and "Moonbeam" is often used. The woman's face on the jacket photo for this song also has an angry look on her face, which matches the song and expresses the feeling of someone forging ahead on her own path.
