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.
