君の前では笑ってたのに
また胸が痛いんだ 帰り道
笑顔ばかりがうまくなったよ
だけど本当は壊れそうで
何で どうして思い出すの
消えない過去に怯えながら ずっと
帰り道 瞬く星の灯は涙を照らした
僕には眩しすぎて
どこに行けば影は消えるの
心はいつも苦しくて
どんな言葉もいらないから
どうか僕のそばにいてくれないか
愛の意味を探して失って
少し疲れてしまった 心のそばに
何を信じて 生きていくの
まっすぐな瞳は悲しいこの世で
帰り道 瞬く星の灯は涙を照らした
僕はどこへ行けば
居場所なんてどこにもないから
人は大事なものを失って
何で どうして 僕はただ
死のうとしたあの夜
愛がほしくて ほしくて
帰り道 瞬く星の灯は涙を照らした
僕はどこへ行けば
君を傷つけたこの空が嫌いで
帰り道 瞬く星の灯よ
僕を殺してよ 光のない僕を
行かないで ずっと不安で
心はいつも苦しくて

On the Way Home
Shiroharu
On the Way Home is a song Mitsuru wrote at the age of twenty capturing both the light and darkness of a relationship with someone deeply important to him.
Behind every smile was a heart close to breaking.
He longed for love while searching for a place where he belonged.
Nearly twenty years have passed.
With the original words unchanged Mitsuru sings the song again in 2026 with only his voice and an acoustic guitar.
The person he was at twenty and the person he is today.
Two moments in time come together in On the Way Home.
Artist Profile
Shiroharu
Shiroharu is an IP artist unit formed by Mitsuru and Hikari. Centered on music and storytelling, Shiroharu transforms the stories of individuals, organizations, and businesses into artistic expressions through music, literature, and multimedia projects. The duo was formed on August 31, 2024, through the audio platform stand.fm. Within just one month of launching their activities, they reached No.1 on the platform's Music Ranking, gaining attention for their unique fusion of music and literary expression. Their creative philosophy is rooted in two themes: standing beside those who are suffering, and encouraging those who dare to pursue their dreams. Through songs, essays, stories, and other creative works, they seek to inspire hope, courage, and human connection. Mitsuru spent many years working in hospice care, accompanying countless individuals through the final stages of life. Drawing from these experiences, he creates stories and lyrics that explore life, loss, and hope. After a career in healthcare and welfare services, he chose an independent path dedicated to artistic expression through music and words. Hikari is a singer-songwriter and screenwriter whose vocals bring depth and emotion to Shiroharu's works. Her voice combines clarity and strength, breathing life into the stories they create. Prior to forming Shiroharu, both Mitsuru and Hikari had already established careers in music and literature. Their achievements include the PHP Award, the Bungei Shicho Essay Award, the Ozaki Hosai Award, and a Bronze Award in the Music Video & Vocalist category at the Houston International Film Festival. Together, they have created more than 100 original songs and have collaborated with producers from major Japanese record labels, as well as musicians who support nationally recognized artists and idol groups. Since 2025, Shiroharu has developed its own creative branding methodology, Sound Story Branding, which transforms personal and corporate narratives into music, films, written works, and other forms of artistic expression designed to create long-term value. On January 7, 2026, Mitsuru and Hikari founded HalScene Inc. Today, Shiroharu serves as the creative and philosophical core of the company, continuing to explore new possibilities at the intersection of music, storytelling, and human experience.
