透明な心臓に
薄暗く陰ってく
色のない背景が
じわっとそっと
動き始めた
僕が僕である事
君が君でいる事
信じていた物が
欠けて割れて
落ちて捨てて
空虚の中彷徨って
君を嫌いになった
「ご覧、これが真実だ」
僕には壁だけだった
落胆的な日々を
見つめ続けて
語句を吐き出して
虚勢で見繕って
ずっと死体同然生きてきたんだろ
他人をネタに嗤って
比較対象大差ない
僕に愛して欲しくば
つまらぬ 会話
価値を 見出すな
空虚の中彷徨って
大切なモノ見つけたよ
「ご覧、世界は嘘ばかり」
僕には関係なくなった
落胆的な日々を
見つめ続けて
語句を吐き出して
虚勢で見繕って
ずっと死体同然生きてきたんだろ
自分に無い物だけ
憧れて自己否定をして
それでも見つめ続け
やっと僕は僕で生きていきたい
落胆的な日々に
嫌気が差して
語句を吐き出した
個性を潰さないで
ずっと自分だけは愛していくんだろう

"Jinsei Kaitai -Life Dismantled- " is an attempt to release the inner conflicts and complex emotions we face in our daily lives through music.
As KATOKINO marks the 10th anniversary of this journey, I found myself pausing to reflect.
"I want to dismantle myself once, and start over."
That feeling became the starting point for this album.
During my time abroad, I came to truly appreciate the charm of J-POP.
At the same time, I felt a quiet urge to rebel against it just a little. That contradiction became another key inspiration.
Each of the ten tracks is built around a unique perspective and theme-exploring personal pain, questioning society, and more.
It's a multifaceted collection drawn from many angles.
This album is a journey of deconstructing oneself through the power of music, and discovering something new in the process.
It crosses genres, and brings individuality to the forefront.
I hope you'll take this work and dismantle it with your own heart.
Artist Profile
Kino Kato
Kino Kato began her musical career in 2014. In 2015, she won the Nagoya Grand Prix at the 9th Music Revolution. With a guitar style that evokes percussive rhythms, she continues to release songs that portray the absurdities of everyday life and discomfort with society, expressed through sharp irony and humor. Traveling alone to London, the Czech Republic, and Paris, she actively pursued live performances abroad. Her one-man show in Paris sold out, marking a significant milestone. In addition, through three months of busking, she cultivated a truly unique form of expression and performance. In 2021, she founded her independent label, Onikko Label. In 2025, she performed at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL as part of ROOKIE A GO-GO. The name "Kino Kato"originates from her childhood nickname "Kinoko" (meaning "mushroom"), which she was called due to her bowl haircut in elementary school. Retaining "Kino" from that nickname and combining it with her former surname "Kato,"she adopted the name as her artist identity.
