──走馬灯のように住み着いている
美化された記憶の欠片が
煙と共に夜空に散っていって
君のもとまで帰っていくよ
「きっと僕より上手くやってるさ」
熱い炎の中で囁く
寂しいほどにきっと冷めていて
それでも小さく灯していたんだ
「誰の気にも止まらないように溶けてしまいたい」
知っているよ
夜が明けてしまえば
また君は背負って泣いてしまうから
待っているよ
笑顔で会える日まで
だからここでお別れをしよう
本当の僕の姿はどっちなんだろう
乗り移ったり騙し合ったり
冷めている目をした君の言葉を
どこか飼い慣らしている僕がいたんだ
「誰の目にも残らないように燃やしてしまいたい」
知っているよ
夜が明けてしまえば
また君は背負って泣いてしまうから
待っているよ
笑顔じゃなくていいから
なんて君は認めないんだろう
「慰めも見返りも言葉も何もいらないから
思い出も憧れもただ燃やしてしまえばいい
ただ、ただ…」
ねぇ、君の背中に寄りかかっていい?
その声の熱いところを教えて
聴いてるよ
怒った声のままでいい
また君に背負わせてしまうよりも
聴いてるよ
泣いている姿でいい
だからここで話をしようよ

"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.
