Knives in the dark through the midnight glass
Lies in the shadows watch as you pass
Search for a flaw in the digital mass
Tear down a halo and burn it to ash
Hide in the screen where the bitter words grow
Spill out the pain they refuse to expose
Strike from the dark with a cowardly blow
Dress it as truth in a poisonous pose
Chase painted smiles on a borrowed high
Count every scar as the hours go by
Beg for fake gold from a beautiful lie
Live on a timeline that bleeds you dry
Dance on a landmine, awaiting the spark
Walk on a wire alone in the dark
Wake up your heartbeat and follow its arc
Cut through the threads and reclaim who you are
Who owns your heart?
Who owns your heart?
Don’t let their voices extinguish your spark
Don’t trade your soul for a digital mark
Who owns your heart?
Who owns your heart?
Find your own road when the mirror turns dark
Turn down the noise, let it fall apart
誰かの光で胸まで曇り
作られた眩しさ 夢も濁り
比べた数だけ 心擦り減り
幸せの形 見失い痛み
あら探しの群れが画面を渡り
尖った正義で誰か叩き
その胸の奥では孤独が騒ぎ
優しさの場所から遠くへ下がり
画面を眺め針を進め
こころなき言語が時をくすね
誰かに崩れた感情ぶつけ
気づけば自分自身が崩れ
指先に繋がりを委ね
次へ次へと目で追うだけ
従属へ向けてほだされ
意思は薄れ心囚われ
Who owns your heart?
Who owns your heart?
誰かの普通で 明日を曲げないで
借り物の価値で 心削らないで
Who owns your heart?
Who owns your heart?
静かな幸せ 見落とさず
自分の歩幅で 未来を選ぶ
見せかけの街で 胸はまだ染まる
誰かの物差しで 誰かが歪む
Let go of the mirrors, let your spirit return
Your worth is a fire no false light can burn
Who owns your heart?
誰かの拍手に飲まれるな
Who owns your heart?
他人に自分を壊させるな
Don’t let their feed lead your whole life astray
Choose what is real when the colors turn gray
Build your own world, let the false lights decay
Hold what is yours, never give it away

Invisible Threads
Otomi Roi
A song about loneliness and the loss of self in the digital age, portraying the craving for validation through screens, constant comparison, and the feeling of having one's heart consumed by anonymous words. By conforming to someone else's ideas of what is "normal" or "right," we gradually wear ourselves down against other people's standards without even realizing it. The song poses a single question to this modern reality: "Who owns your heart?"
Moving between English and Japanese, the song traces an emotional journey from dependence to recovery. It is not merely a criticism of social media. It is also a declaration of letting go of the noise and choosing the future at your own pace. Don't overlook quiet happiness. Don't wear down your heart with borrowed values. Its message reaches today's listeners-those who feel lonely even while connected-as something powerful and deeply necessary.
It questions the boundary between the self and others in the digital world.
"Invisible Threads" presents that question with striking honesty and strength.
Artist Profile
Otomi Roi
A trackmaker and multi-talented artist who operates without boundaries, handling everything from sound architecture to vocal performance. Beyond fully producing the entire trackmaking process-including writing, composing, and arranging-he takes the mic himself, pursuing a hybrid style that seamlessly shifts between singing and rapping to match the vision of each song. His greatest strength lies in his flexibility to bring diverse musicality to life as his intuition dictates, never confining himself to a specific genre-ranging from urban, chill club music to emotional, high-energy, fast-paced sounds. Blending the logical approach of a creator with the deeply expressive vocals of a performer, he is an artist who highly fuses these two dimensions to consistently deliver new forms of music that defy conventional frameworks.
