Flashback

TOMC, ISAFAT

私の手を引っ張ってもう一度

何もかも捨てていいのに居ない君の影だけ

最後巻き戻す様にフラッシュバックさせてまた後悔

そこで足が絡まって

言い訳をいくつも並べて何処へ行こうというの? ねえ、聞きたくない

正しく抱きしめてよ悲しい終わり方も

少しは忘れさせていてよ

まだ隣にいても心は終点まで

寄り添って

今は違うと思えてる自分をもっと素直に

認めてあげればいいのにね

曖昧な言葉でそのままにさせてる不意に

言わないでso cry

まだなれない

平気な顔でまた外に出るまであと2時間半

手を止めれない

今更過ぎたことを引きずって

変わらない自分を嫌って

広くなる部屋に服干して

イライラしてるこれが最悪

理由がふとついてまわって

変に思われたくも無くて

大丈夫かも今は違くて

ただ今日は休みたい平日

知らないフリも出来るのその声もすぐに優しく向けられて

簡単な言葉で許せたらそれだけ楽ね

正しく抱きしめてよ悲しい終わり方も

少しは忘れさせていてよ

曖昧な言葉でそのままにさせてる不意に

言わないでso cry

    TOMC, ISAFAT

The new song by TOMC, a beat and ambient producer active in Japan and abroad, is a stylish and emortional city funk/neo soul tune in collaboration with upcoming R&B/pop artist ISAFAT.

ISAFAT, who began playing the cello at the age of 3, is known for his ability to take charge of the entire process of writing lyrics, composing, trackmaking, and performing. For this single, ISAFAT updated the chords, replaced some parts with his playing, wrote the top line and entire lyric, and sang based on the track created by TOMC.

This song was mixed and mastered by TOMC himself, the sound design was created with a contemporary R&B pop sound in mind, akin to that of iri, rikon densetsu, etc.
