Lyric

Proximity

amou

I guess I’m finding something

Hurt me and take precautions

All the time I try to fake it

Cause I don’t want to be hated

I’m afraid to come under fire

Or to be acclaimed

Equate what I am

With what I made

Unconsciously

I don’t know how to be alright

Can’t help clutching some

Inferiority

I wake up with what chokes on me

Always it stands up

In Front of me

Only In my head I make fun of me

I know that’s

My own worst enemy

From Inside I realize

Somehow I maintain Proximity

I’ve always caught uneasiness

I have to live up

To expectations

And It’s In my face

Too close to see

I need a little bit of Gravity

That bring me down to the ground

Cause It could hurt me

And It could give me some

Security as well

I don’t know how to be alright

Can’t help clutching some

Inferiority

I wake up with what chokes on me

Always it stands up

In Front of me

Only In my head I make fun of me

I know that’s

My own worst enemy

From Inside I realize

Somehow I maintain Proximity

Proximity

Inside I realize

Somehow I maintain Proximity

From Inside I realize

Somehow I maintain Proximity

Artist Profile

  • amou

    amou is a solo project by singer-songwriter Satoru Kitajima. Born in Kanagawa, Japan in 1991, he started playing guitar at the age of 14 and moved to the U.S. by himself at the age of 20. He studied recording, creativity, and marketing systematically in Hollywood with the concept of self-produced activities as an independent artist. After returning to Japan, while working for an IT venture company, he has been active in music as a guitarist and vocalist in "falleaves" and as a label director in "divergent record". In 2023, he started his solo career as "amou" and released his first ep "Slowdonw". He is influenced by emo and post-rock, and his sound is characterized by a wide range of sounds such as indie-folk, chill-out, tropical house, and so on. His lyrics are philosophical and reflective, as if he is confronting the difficulty of living within himself, while looking at the suffocation he feels in society.
