高層の窓 見下ろす東京(まち)
並ぶ灯りに 誰かの暮らし
防音硝子(ガラス) 閉ざした部屋で
氷が溶ける 音を聞いてる
光の渦の その向こう側
小田急線(ライン)の 闇へと続く
遠い郊外 揺れてたガラス
借り物の時間 知っていたのよ
グラスの中で 溶けてゆく氷
小さく響く 夜の静寂(しじま)に
日陰の恋と 自覚しながら
あなたの胸に 顔を埋めた
上着(ジャケット)羽織る 背中を映し
鏡の向こう 時計(とき)を気にする
「そろそろだね」と 言わないずるさ
責めるつもりは はじめからない
悲劇のヒロイン 演じはしない
自分で選んだ この孤独なら
愛した理由も 手放す覚悟も
私の胸に 引き受けるだけ
見送ると決め 背を向けたのに
残る上着(ジャケット) 寄せる唇
朝が来れば 他人に戻る
あなたの指を 解いてあげる
重いプレート 鍵(キー)を預けて
朝のフロント 一人で降りる
手放したはずの 首筋の熱
冷めないままで 残っているの

Glass in the Sky
Akemi
Glass in the Sky is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays the hours until dawn in a high rise hotel, taken on as a solitude she chose for herself.
Countless lights of Tokyo seen from above, soundproof glass shutting out the city, ice sounding small inside a glass, a back in the mirror checking the time, and a key with a heavy plate handed over at the morning desk create a room where, with the noise outside removed, only the sounds within reach her with cold clarity.
Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the emotions of adulthood that knows he has a home to return to, refuses to blame him for it, and refuses just as firmly to play the tragic heroine.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era urban lyricism through images of a city skyline at night, a hotel room, and a relationship with no name.
The reason she loved him and the will to let him go are both hers alone to carry.
Knowing they return to strangers when morning comes, she is the one who unwinds their joined fingers.

Artist Profile
Akemi
A music project that reimagines the melancholic mood and nighttime glow of late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese City Pop and New Music through AI-assisted production and human direction. Akemi is a fictional singer with a backstory of being from Yamato City, Kanagawa, Japan. She sings of urban solitude, grown-up love, and bittersweet afterglow in a noir-tinged city pop sound. Lyrics, composition, vocals, and visuals are created using generative tools and curated through editing. This is an experimental project exploring the human warmth and nostalgia that can emerge from AI.
