Lyric

Not Like Me

1Tatsu

Even here in the north, the summer sun bites my skin

Bringing back the days in that city, where we used to live

"It’s not like me," I say with a hollow smile

Refusing to admit I’m still lost in the denial

My shadow trembles in the haze, breathing out a sigh

The sorrowful song I taught you long ago

Do you still remember how it used to flow?

That painful love we couldn’t help but know

Only the "goodbye" we shouted in the rain

Left behind, swaying in the summer wind

Maybe it’s not so bad, to feel this lingering pain

Keep your life just as it is, but let me ask you

Could you have stayed in love with me, only in your heart?

I tried to stir a Gin and Tonic, just like you used to make

Imitating your hands, but it’s a bitter mistake

It never tastes the same, no matter how much I shake

"It’s not like you," I hear your voice tease me

The scent of summer flows, making it hard to be free

I catch my breath, as memories rush over me

The sorrowful song I taught you long ago

If I hum it now, would it make a little show?

A bitter laugh for a girl who can't let go

Only the "goodbye" we chose to leave behind

Left alone, swaying in the summer light

Maybe it’s not so bad, this peace I’m trying to find

    Not Like Me

    1Tatsu

The definitive epilogue to the "Can't Throw Away Innocence" series, marking the true conclusion of the long-running story. Following "Fuko," a woman who once chose to leave her love behind to preserve its beauty before they could hurt each other. Years after that day she accelerated away into the distance, she now sits in a northern city, stirring a gin and tonic alone and confronting her past. This track is the hallmark of 1Tatsu's "Afrobeat Folk" style. The breezy percussion and melancholic folk guitar beautifully sublimate her "one and only selfish wish" to remain loved in his heart forever. Experience the final chapter of an immortal love story, now deepened through English lyrics.
