Lyric

Time never really stopped

SEIMEI

Night does strange things

Time doesn’t move the same for everyone

You keep growing older

While I stay right where I am

I’m watching the world through a window

On a train with no name on the sign

I can’t get off halfway anymore

But I know where it’s headed

A clock that stopped long ago

Tick, tock — tick, tock

Still beating somewhere in my chest

If I had one more chance to walk

Would I choose the same road again?

I don’t have the answer

But I can see you moving ahead

Hey friend

I’m on a train tonight, coming to see you

The scenery keeps changing outside the glass

We don’t look the same as before

But the way we say hello never changed

Hey father

The roads we knew are gone now

It’s a longer way, but I turn the wheel

Toward something new

I don’t think I chose wrong

Even if I’m shy to say it out loud

Hey lover

Crossing the highway after midnight

Your voice comes back like an old radio song

I only wish one thing

That somewhere ahead, you’re smiling

Yeah… just keep smiling

I left behind more than I could carry

Dreams that never fit in my hands

But I still believe this isn’t the end

I’m watching — always

You’re holding someone else’s hand now

Waking up to brand new mornings

Time I never got to live

Is making you stronger

And somehow

That makes me proud

And a little blinded by the light

Even if we don’t grow old together

We’re still under the same sky

The distance between us

Never weakened what we were

If a night ever makes you stop

I want you to remember

You’re not alone

There’s still a voice right here

The answer isn’t waiting somewhere ahead

It’s born from every step you take

So don’t be afraid

Just keep moving

Hey faraway friend

I’ll take a plane just to see you

Countries changed, lives moved on

But the way we say hello stayed the same

Hey mother

The house that once felt like home

Is still standing just the same

I’m moving somewhere new now

I just want you to know

I’m okay — don’t worry

Hey lover

Beyond the highway at night

There’s no trace of me left behind

And that’s how it should be

Your future deserves that

Hey future me

Don’t be so hard on yourself

You were loved more than you know

Every scar, every doubt

You’re enough just as you are

At that nameless station

If you’re smiling there

Then my time

Never really stopped

The road keeps going

Even if I don’t

    Time never really stopped

    SEIMEI

Time never really stopped is a quiet conversation across time -
spoken from a place slightly outside the flow of life,
gently reaching those who continue to move forward.

Blending chillhop and blues with a cinematic, road-movie atmosphere,
the track drifts through memories, distance, and unspoken feelings,
where past, present, and future softly overlap.

Rather than offering answers,
this song rests in the idea that time itself never truly stops -
even when it feels like it has.

A companion for late nights,
when everything seems still,
yet something within continues to move.

Artist Profile

  • SEIMEI

    SEIMEI creates "another reality" through sound. The project EASYGOING47 is an experimental soundscape built from fragmented memories and emotions of the self. It focuses on works that gently touch the "spaces between the heart" - the liminal zone between reality and fantasy - exploring solitude and chaos, and creating music that stands beside someone's reality. We believe that even if sound itself is inorganic, the intention within carries the warmth of human touch. We invite you to listen closely to the emotions and resonance that lie beyond the self, in the space where they meet.
