たった一度 目を逸らせば逃げてしまう
括弧書きで言い訳だけ 並べただけ 本気じゃ無いだけ
追いかける虚しさに気づいて
興味のない衣を纏ってヘラヘラ笑う
こどもの頃 広げていた地図は
出鱈目で はみ出してばっか
どこにも行けない！と破り捨て
今 僕は綺麗に並んだ
クソつまらん真っ直ぐな白線の上
たった一度 目が合ったら認めてしまう
急がなきゃ 手当たり次第 バカにしなきゃ 透明になる前に
みんな 息してる？
こどもの頃 広げていた地図は
出鱈目で はみ出してばっか
どこにも行けない！と破り捨て
今 僕は綺麗に並んだ列から
出るに出られなくなって
何者でもないこと 噛み締めるんだ
遠く輝く人 僕が届かぬ人 人はそれぞれなんだと
興味ない振り 鎧を纏って ヘラヘラ笑うの
絶望するにはまだ早くて
誰かのせいにしたら楽で
人生は一度のはずなくて
足掻くほど縋るほどに
つまらん僕が生き延びるだけ
今でも どこにもいけないよ このままじゃ
今 僕は綺麗に並んだ
クソつまらん真っ直ぐな白線の上
はみ出すなら 今

toitoitoi New Digital Single "Excuse" Out!
Get ready! toitoitoi is set to release their highly anticipated digital single, "Excuse," on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, available on all major subscription services.
Written by Kishikawa and composed/arranged by Sudo and Yasumoto, "Excuse" dives deep into the struggles and feelings of confinement that many experience in modern society. Yet, it also carries a powerful message of pushing forward with determination.
Lines like "Just one glance away and it flees" and "On a straight, boring white line" vividly portray the tendency to choose the safe path and the frustration with the status quo. However, the song doesn't dwell in despair. Phrases such as "Too soon for despair" and "If you're going to break out, now's the time" showcase toitoitoi's strong will to challenge the present. This track is bound to resonate deeply with listeners, offering both relatability and encouragement.

Artist Profile
toitoitoi
Alter all tut-tuts to blowing kisses!" Japanese two-piece rock band toitoitoi (Maki Kishikawa on Vocal, and Murakoshi on Guitar) from Chiba, Japan. Their performance with a calm & sitting acoustic guitar, and beastly vocals tethered to a wired microphone is often commented as "I've never seen such performance, it's strange and new" or "I don't know what it is, but it's awesome." The most appealing is their live performances which they mainly perform with just the two of them. Those performances overturns the concept of acoustic style performances. Also, sometimes they perform wide variety of thier songs in band-set style with support members. They perform everywhere including venues, cafes, shopping malls, and even on the streets. They show an overwhelming performances with free and flexible compositions.
