Lyric

Layer upon Layer

YAMARYOOO

風は吹き雨がなびいて

窓の外ではカーテンのように

ゆらりとゆらりと形を変える

うねる焦燥感

太宰もカートも同じくして

この淡く巻きついた感情を

飲み込んだのか?いや、振り払ったのか?

今日の私はまだ解を得られず

遠くで雷鳴が

憂いを切り裂く

多く積もる言葉 両手で掬おうとしても

零れ落ちる雨粒のよう無碍に

今日もまた路面を濡らす

形が無いものを形にして

形が無いことも形にして

気楽に生きろとあなたは

笑うようにいつも諭すけど

肩肘を張らず生きてゆけるなら

今すぐにでもそうしてるさ

きっと

日々増える感情の累積をしたためる

それでも足りぬ証明

あと幾つ歌えば

多く積もる言葉 両手で掬おうとしても

零れ落ちる雨粒のよう無碍に

今日もまた路面を濡らす

窓の外では変わらず雨が

追い立てるように強く強く降る

焦る心を描くかのよう

やがて夜は黒く空を染め上げていた

雲隠れの月がひとつ、ひとつ

心を癒すかのように――。

目まぐるしく回る日々のなかで

取り残されぬように

息も絶え絶え、あぁ、歩いてゆく

灯火を消さぬように

かろうじて生きてゆく

生きてゆく

形が無いものを形にして

形が無いことも形にして

    YAMARYOOO

This album is a pure "I-Novel," a style of Japanese literature. It is an act of driving a wedge into the present, the dawn of a life still being woven, by exposing that very state through introspective lyrics and sound. The direction of this music is the complete opposite of a world open to the masses, a kind of confessional, raw outpouring of extremely personal feelings.

However, the public is, after all, a collection of individuals other than oneself. When you focus on each person, the emotions expressed by one individual can be seen as universal. In short, personal passions can be deeply relatable depending on how you look at them.

This album is a form of "Syncretism Rock" born from the soul of a modern Japanese person.
