I see the words on screen but they’re drifting apart
気持ちとスタンプ mismatch from the start
画面の向こう unread のままで
タイプをとめてる midnight parade
微笑む selfie 裏は anxiety
分かったふりで流れる story
Try to speak out girl, break your silence
だけど胸には quiet violence
Ahh 言葉選ぶほど
君から遠ざかる maze
何がリアルで 何が fake
私は今も Caught in the haze
Caught in the stars
揺れる communication
My thoughts ain't yours
曖昧な intentions
伝えたいことがほどけてく
Can’t fake anymore
In this mercury storm
Yeah 絡まる電波で mixed emotions
想いはエラーで in slow-motion
「会いたい」は deleteしてまた書き直す
本音は backspace で宙を舞う
If you wanna reach me decode this line
でも気づけば心に offline
Try to open up girl, brave and true
だけど言葉は stuck like glue
Ahh 擦れ違いの日々に
本音も消えていく phase
「平気だよ」が一番の lie
気づかない君が cruel and kind
Caught in the stars
ズレる translations
Feelings obscure
不安な reflections
伝えられずに離れてく
Can't hide anymore
In this mercury storm
夜が明ければ clarity, maybe
だけど今は心が lazy
投げ出すのは簡単じゃない
明日には届くかもしれない
Caught in the stars
揺れる communication
My thoughts ain't yours
曖昧な intentions
伝えたいことがほどけてく
Can’t fake anymore
In this mercury storm
Can’t fake anymore…
揺れる心がバグっても
I’ll find my voice

Xinyi Kamiya to Release New Single "Mercury Retrograde" on August 10
Xinyi Kamiya returns with a new single, "Mercury Retrograde", dropping August 10.
Blending elements of alternative R&B, lo-fi, and electropop, the track features an airy, ambient soundscape paired with vocals that delicately reflect emotional turbulence.
In an age of unread messages and unsaid feelings, this song captures the raw reality of Gen Z living through emotional glitches.
Unstable hearts, frozen "read" receipts, and uncertain love
Like Mercury in retrograde, everything seems to move forward while quietly falling out of sync.
Through poetic lyrics and subtle beats, Kamiya portrays a young woman navigating her way through confusion, reaching toward her own emotional clarity.
Artist Profile
Xinyi Kamiya
A Tokyo-based singer, songwriter, and trackmaker, Xinyi Kamiya creates music that cuts through the noise with sharp sensitivity while holding deep emotion beneath the surface. Her sound blends elements of HIPHOP, electropop, and Y2K aesthetics, forming a cool yet emotional sonic palette. Having moved to Tokyo at the age of 14, her creative roots trace back to the urban loneliness and longing for connection she felt during that time. With a sharp instinct for the language of her generation, she writes lyrics that reflect the miscommunications through screens, memories left in devices, and the fragile reality hidden within digital anonymity. Switching seamlessly between English and Japanese, her words are carried by rhythmic flow and resonant sound, echoing the emotions and atmosphere of city life. Blurring the line between meaning and melody, her lyricism weaves poetry into beats, creating a distinct and immersive narrative world.
