棚の最後のテープを手に取る
ラベルに残るあなたの筆跡
水曜の夜更け部屋の片隅
重いボタンを静かに押し込む
回るテープの低いノイズは
フェンス越しに聴いたラジオのよう
減ってゆく二人の残り時間
終わりと知って私は測るの
満ちる光が不意に途切れて
何もない青い画面に替わる
先月四本で今月一つ
予約の余白が距離を教える
意味がないのに巻き戻しを押す
やはり三十分早く終わるの
終わりの尺を合わせる手間さえ
あなたは静かに手放したのね
もう録らなくていいと告げれば
全てが本当に終わってしまう
だからこの青を見つめたままで
一人でテープの終わりを選ぶ
消える光を静かに見送り
暗闇の部屋で停止を押すの
吐き出すテープの乾いた音で
二人の時間は取り出されてく
ラベルの文字を指先でなぞり
捨てずに私の意志で戻すの
窓の下には夜の246号線(ニーヨンロク)
手放したはずの微熱が痛い

Rewind Blue
Akemi
Rewind Blue is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays the end of a relationship once held together by recording timers in place of words, watched alone until the tape cuts to an empty blue screen.
A late Wednesday night in a Shinsen apartment, the last cassette pulled from the shelf, a label written in his handwriting, a recording that ends thirty minutes too early, and the night view of Route 246 below the window create a quiet scene where the slow decline in scheduled recordings settles into a final loss of care.
Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the emotions of adulthood that senses the end of a relationship but refuses to say the words that would seal it, choosing instead to return the tape to the shelf without throwing it away and without playing it again.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era urban lyricism through images of late night rooms, silent promises, and the cool weight of an absence that refuses to be named.
Tracing the letters on the label with a fingertip before placing the tape back on the shelf is the smallest of gestures.
Neither to discard nor to hold on, it is a choice made by her own will to stop replaying, the quiet outline of a private farewell.
