また始めようとしてる
誰も興味ないって分かりきったのに
I pretend I'm fine
それでも諦められないんだ
くだらないリリック綴って
誰かのミミックみたいで
知らないよロジックなんて
世の中はトリックだらけ
隣の芝が青くたって
僕は家すら持ってなくて
だからどうでもいいんだって
必死で言い聞かせてるだけ
どうして？なんてわかんないよ
ただ止まることもできないだけ
どうしようもないこと
僕が1番わかってんだ
"yeah, I deeply understand that…"
才能？なんてハナから無いって
感情ばかり暴れだして
I know, でもやるしかないって
I don't know why
I don't know why
But I miss you
幼稚な僕は
懲りもせずにまだ縋っている
I pretend you're right
それでも信じたくないんだ
起こらないマジック望んで
誰かのクリックを待って
まるでホリックのようで
今にもパニック寸前
誰かの何かになりたくて
でも何一つ持ってなくて
だからどうにでもなれって
必死で言い聞かせてるだけ
どうして？もうわかんないよ
ただ終わることもできないだけ
どうしようもないこと
僕が1番知ってるんだ
NO WAY
才能？なんてハナから無いって
感情ばかり暴れだして
I know, でもやるしかないって
I don't know why
本能のままに暴れだして
順応なんてできなくって
You know, でも全部振り切って
I don't know why
I don't know why
But I miss you

DON'T KNOW WHY
sammy. /REVERSIES
sammy. /REVERSIES Releases New Single "DON'T KNOW WHY"
- "I don't even know why I keep making music. Still, I keep making noise."
DIY "one-man alternative rock band(?)"sammy. /REVERSIES, who handles everything from songwriting and recording to mixing, releases a new single, "DON'T KNOW WHY,"on September 25, 2026.
Following the release of his second album, WHITEOUT?, in March this year, sammy. has continued to explore emotions such as anger, regret, resignation, and loneliness. His new single, "DON'T KNOW WHY," takes a more direct look at a simple yet difficult question:
Why do I keep making music anyway?
___________________
I'm trying to start again
Even though I already know nobody cares
I pretend I'm fine
Still, I can't give it up
___________________
Caught between the desire to be recognized, the need to become "something" to someone, and the constant urge to wait for someone's click, the song portrays a cycle of frustration and self-doubt.
Yet, as sammy. sings:
___________________
I don't know why I just can't stop
___________________
There is no clear answer. He simply continues making music, even when he cannot explain why.
Sonically, "DON'T KNOW WHY" builds on sammy.'s roots in Alternative Rock, Grunge, Emo, and Pop Punk, combining raw guitars, a driving live-band feel, and emotionally exposed vocals. The result balances the roughness and intimacy of a DIY recording process with a more contemporary rock sound.
At the heart of the song is the recurring line:
___________________
I don't know why But I miss you
___________________
The phrase captures the song's sense of uncertainty and contradiction. He doesn't know why he keeps going, yet the feeling of having lost something-and being unable to completely let it go-remains.
If WHITEOUT? explored the emotions within sammy. from different perspectives, "DON'T KNOW WHY" captures what comes next: returning to the starting point and making noise again anyway.
He hasn't found all the answers.
He hasn't regained complete confidence.
He just doesn't know.
And still, he's trying to start again.
Carrying that contradiction with him, sammy. /REVERSIES picks up his guitar and makes noise once more.
