Lyric

Void

1Tatsu

I look above — an endless blue

But knowing it reaches you won't do

A square of sky cuts through Tokyo

While frozen winds across your horizon blow

Somewhere far away, they celebrate you

I whisper softly, “I'm happy for you”

Still, something cold cuts deep inside

I wish you joy, but I cannot hide

I can't just watch you walk away

Into somebody else's arms someday

“Under the same sky” is a lie

I can't touch your lips or meet your eyes

I can't feel your long hair in the wind

Or hold you close the way I did

The endless blue above my eyes

Only tells me how far you are tonight

Like daylight shifting through our different hours

Our roads have slowly drifted far apart

These hands could never reach across the sea

So I trace the words you once gave me

Though I can never share your warmth again

Let me believe what we had was real

For just one moment, long ago

A part of you touched part of my soul

The world is far too wide to say

We're underneath the same sky today

But if this ache that wishes you well

Is something I can still call love

It doesn't have to reach your snowy town

I'll simply watch this endless blue

And let a fragment of my heart

Drift through the sky toward you

Under the same sky. What a beautiful lie

    Void

    1Tatsu

Separated by borders and an insurmountable distance, "KOKŪ (Void) is a melancholic contemporary blues/soul ballad that explores the ache of being far apart. The well-worn phrase "we're under the same sky" rings hollow against the reality of physical and emotional separation. While whispering a blessing for her happiness from afar, the singer confronts a cold prick of jealousy and the painful truth that her touch will never be felt again. Carried by soulful, deeply emotive vocals and a slow, late-night groove, this track lays bare the void of longing and silent devotion. Written and produced by 1Tatsu.
