自分の名を忘れて
君のこころに触れたくて
でも上手く言えなくて
塞ぎ込んでばかりいたんだ
僕は誰だっけ？
何の為だっけ？
今日も空は青かったんだ
子どもの僕が見ていた
何ひとつ変わっていないんだ
キラキラして泣きそうで
怒ってても憎めなくて
認められたいのかな？
諦めたくないのかな？
ずっと君のままだったんだ
Nh
君の名を呼ぶよ
冷たい空の向こう
Nh
世界の端っこで
今 ここに立っているよ
都会の音が響いて
森の手足がざわめいて
風にさらわれていって
果てしない空に解けた
僕は誰だっけ？
何の為だっけ？
今日も雲は流れていって
白黒つけようとした
曖昧に誤魔化そうとした
「僕に何が出来るのかな？」
偽善者って言うんだろうか
認められたいのかな？
離したくないのかな？
ずっと僕のままだったんだ
Nh
僕の名を呼ぶよ
先の見えない群青
Nh
世界の端っこから
今 帰ろうとしてるよ
冷たい雨が心地よくて
このまま洗い流そうと
溶けだした涙は色付いていた
君が見ていた世界と
僕が見てきた世界を
陽に透かして重ね合ったら
どんな景色が映るんだろう
閉じ込めていた声と
手放そうとした日が
青い水飛沫に満たされて
懐かしくて愛おしい手に
暖かく背中を押されて
細く繋いでいた糸を
芽一杯に手繰り寄せた
灼け澄んだ空気に
触れて解けていった
また宛のない日々の先へ
溢れそうに小さな一歩で
歩いていこうよ

Name's Echo
Hiyou
"A Fish Who Longed for Birds"
When I thrust through the water and leap towards the shimmering surface, there's a moment when my body becomes weightless in the air.
The world transforms completely from its azure state.
Though my breathing, skin, and eyes all suffer, I leap again and again, falling each time, just to glimpse that world once more.
In that long instant at the surface, I saw creatures soaring far higher than I could. I admired them. I envied them, and kept leaping time after time, refusing to be outdone.
Yet I never reached them.
I often have such dreams.
In my past life, I must have been a fish or something similar.
Ah, how much it resembles who I am now.
Artist Profile
Hiyou
Hiyou is a Tokyo-based artist, songwriter, and composer who pushes the boundaries of genre, blending pop, jazz, classical, and electronica into deeply emotional, cinematic soundscapes. His music combines translucent, heartfelt vocals with improvisational piano and intricate production, creating a unique sonic experience that ''paints landscapes in your memory.'' Raised on classical piano, Hiyou discovered improvisation and composition in his teens before studying advanced music theory and composition at Toho College of Music. This foundation allows him to fuse technical precision with a sense of wonder, turning personal stories and vivid imagery into music. In 2024, he released his debut album Hikoushou (Flight Chapter), a concept album based on the idea: ''A fish that longed to fly will leap again, no matter how many times it falls.'' His songs invite listeners into an intimate yet expansive world--one that feels both nostalgic and full of discovery. Hiyou continues to evolve as an artist, crafting works that bridge fantasy and reality, while preparing for his third major live performance in Tokyo in 2025.
