You
Left
Your land
For good
Sailing across the sea
To see what your life could be
Five
Years
Of life
In a new city
You lost touch with everyone
Your past faded into oblivion
Honor the history of your clan
I know that you’ve always been loyal to your plan
The windmill is swirling, it’s your momentum to the northwest
The wind chill you felt, was it colder than the home you left?
Jump
Off the boat
While it’s floating
Before it starts sinking
Off to the new landscape
Opportunities filled up the space
Talk
From deep in your heart
While it’s beating
Might as well stop thinking
Love was your driving force
Why did you stop surviving the storm?
Honor the history of your clan
I know that you’ve always been loyal to your plan
The windmill is swirling, it’s your momentum to the northwest
The wind chill you felt, was it colder than the home you left?
I was stuck
And I was struck in Siberia
The scar on my left ear left my late years in hysteria
I was drafted when I was seventeen
The government’s grand scheme
I never recognized it as a crime scene
I was in love with the big machine
The eulogy was all deceptive
I was misled like every other sheep
I was embedded in the collective
Thus, I had no self-esteem
I wish I had a choice
I wish I could press the button and restart
Decisively self-destructive, everything was falling apart
I don’t know what you’ve been through
But my father moved to see you
Just wanted to reach you
Only to be blown away by the time bomb
My memory went pitch black, forced labor with no union
I don’t know about you, but I made it back
It was a family reunion
The promised land for 30 million people, hand in hand, all created equal
The vast majority in reality faced inequality
We still live in the sequel
Together we created this utopia
For some of you, it was a dystopia
All the lies in the imperial era were buried in the land of Manchuria
You
Left
Your land
For good
Sailing across the sea
To see what your life could be
Twelve
Years
Of life
In a new city
You lost touch with everyone
Your past faded into oblivion

On this five-track EP, Echoscape, the math rock project led by Satoshi Inoue, moves between precision and restraint. Interlocking guitar lines form asymmetrical patterns, leaving space for quieter melodic fragments to emerge. English and Japanese lyrics appear less as narrative anchors than as subtle textures, as the songs trace small emotional contours shaped by both math rock intricacy and indie folk intimacy.
