Lyric

Shara Soju is a work inspired by the opening passage of The Tale of the Heike,
which speaks of impermanence and the inevitable decline of all things.
Through this concept, the track reflects on the self existing within constant change.

Everything shifts, and nothing remains at its peak forever.
Rather than resisting this truth, the song accepts it, portraying a perspective that carries the past while continuing to stand in the present.
Traditional Japanese instruments are woven into a modern soundscape, shaping a quiet yet distinctive atmosphere.

The sense of distance maintained throughout the lyrics is not an act of isolation,
but a consciously chosen stance-stepping back from noise and excess, and remaining still within movement.

The repeated classical text frames the song from beginning to end,
creating a circular structure that reinforces the theme of impermanence and leaves a lingering resonance.

This track marks the beginning-
the first work, and the origin.
A record of standing quietly, yet firmly, within transience.
