Wet footsteps echo through the empty hall
Fumbling with the keys my fingers start to stall
The city screaming but I can't hear a thing
Only the rhythm of the rain and the sting
The elevator groans like a ghost in the dark
Leaving me alone with this flickering spark
Flip the switch, burst of blinding white
It doesn't feel like home just a cage of light
My coat is dripping heavy on the floor
I'm shivering staring at the bolted door
The shadows stretch they're reaching for my name
In this hollow room everything feels the same
The radiator's humming but the heat is a lie
Watching the gray clouds swallow up the sky
I'm holding my own shoulders trying not to break
How much of this silence am I supposed to take?
Somebody's ghost, somebody's ghost
Cold on my skin feeling the pressure
Let the music begin
Let the cold rain wash away the soul of me
Drown the silence in this empty galaxy
When the room gets warm the loneliness will burn
To the fever of the rain I will return
I'm soaring through the dark and the sound is so clear
This beautiful grace is the only cure
Steam rising from the cup blur on the glass
Tracing goodbye as the lonely minutes pass
The city lights are diamonds but I'm just cold
Trying to find a way to fix this broken hold
It's still so cold New York
Lately I dissolve into the falling gray
In this empty hall I'm waiting for the day
The more I want love the more I push it back
In the rhythm of the rain everything goes black
Wash me away let the flood set me free
In the heart of the storm that's where I'll be

Song Introduction: The Neon Solitude
Even a million-dollar night view cannot illuminate the loneliness of a room for one. Only the beat of the falling rain is the sole reality tethering me to the present.
Rain-soaked hallways, trembling fingertips, and the groan of the elevator echoing in place of a "I'm home." This work is a monologue depicting the subtle shifts of a heart quietly collapsing in a corner of New York-the world's most glittering city-untouched by anyone's warmth. It is a night spent confronting an unerasable loneliness while hugging one's own shoulders in a room filled with inorganic light. The jazzy, ennui-laden melody composed by SUNO AI cuts through the urban silence, inviting listeners into a deep world of "blue."
The greatest highlight is the "earnest whisper vocals" mixed with sighs, as if melting into the cold air. It captures the contradiction of pushing oneself away the more one seeks love, and the raw cry of wanting to "melt into this rain while feverish with the heat of loneliness." The crystal-clear singing voice finds a faint salvation within the urban noise of the rain, transforming even sadness into a beautiful gradation.
"This rain sets me free."
By the time the word "Goodbye" traced in the window's condensation disappears, loneliness is sublimated from pain into "serene freedom." This is the most poignant and noble night anthem, standing by everyone living with an unspeakable loneliness in the shadows of the brilliant neon lights.
Artist Profile

HIKARI Artist Profile [Tagline] "A next-generation sound architect who transcends the boundaries of AI, etching 'breath' and 'passion' into the digital realm." [Artist Statement] HIKARI is an artist/producer who eliminates "randomness" in AI music generation, physically controlling emotions through precise prompt engineering. By establishing a unique vocal pronunciation control system called "HIKARI Style ID," they intentionally imbue AI's overly fluent singing voices with human imperfections such as "trembles," "sighs," and a "sense of distance." The sound moves freely between silence (a whisper at 0m) and frenzy (reverberation at 100m), providing an overwhelming sense of immersion that feels as if it is touching the listener's eardrums directly. [Musicality & Style] Cinematic Emotional Pop: A sound characterized by extreme dynamics and visual spatial design. Technical Uniqueness: Song construction in "multi-movement form" using syllable-level spelling control and physical reset structures for BPM and instrumentation. Treating AI not merely as a tool, but as an "instrument" tuned to the extreme. Hybrid Roots: While pursuing digital purity, the core hides the "passion" unique to Enka as a secret ingredient, aiming for a fusion of East and West, technology and emotion. Major Releases: "Stay Where You Are" "Diamond Dust Prayer" "Nazca Lines" "Utenai Mama" "Kowareru Kurai ni"
