闇を切る星
険しい道も乗り越えた
「さよなら」もしたし
言い訳も上手くできなくて
消えそうに
燃え尽きたり
諦めたりしたけど
僕らは旅人、
地図などない
果てしなく
広がるこの旅路で
You are not alone
長い間に
忘れた記憶の断片を
ねぇ、これ以上は
失いたくはないから
あなたなら
照らすだろう
暗闇の先を
煌めく星空
歩いて行こう
遥かなあの大地へと続く
Don't leave me alone
許されるなら、
もう少し休もう…
きっと果てしない旅路
溢れそうな、
魔法の雫が
僕らはきっと必要さ
僕らは旅人、
地図などない
いつかは
あなたの待つ場所へ
煌めく星空
歩いて行こう
遥かなあの大地へと続く
Don't leave me alone

EXPLORER
Kototoi
We are explorer.
There is no map for life.
How much easier would life be
if only there were signs to guide us?
We wander.
We climb.
We fall.
We rise.
That is what makes life beautiful.
Life is precious.
And beneath every step we take,
there is surely a road
shining in the light.
Where is the place you are waiting for?
Where is your destination?
We can embrace life
because we have companions-
because we have shared this journey with them.
There are lonely days.
There are painful days.
And in those moments,
you may find yourself whispering,
"Please... don't leave me alone."
But let me tell you this, without a doubt-
It's going to be okay.
You are not alone.
Artist Profile
Kototoi
Formed in September 2022, Kototoi takes its name from Kototoi Bridge, which lies along the route connecting the members' homes. While there are two possible romanizations-Cototoi and Kototoi-we chose to go with Kototoi. Based in Tokyo, the group is active mainly around Ueno, Asakusa, and Kitasenju. Their music is rooted in J-pop and rock, featuring harmonies rich in Japanese sensibility and emotive melodies. In recent years, they have also been performing in a full-band style under the name Kototoi6, expanding their sound and live presence. With music that is both gentle and grounded, Kototoi offers songs that resonate deeply with the heart.
