Diner End Credits

Akemi

七年ぶりの扉 同じ軋み

ナポリタンひとつ ひとりで頼む

壁の品書きは もう外されて

灯りだけ残る 最後の夜に

爆音(ノイズ)の街を出て 十九の冬

隣に座ったのが あなただった

一皿を二人で 夜が明けるまで

腕の内に手を入れ 帰る夜道

扉が開く 七年ぶりの顔

巻きかけたフォーク 途中で止まる

立ったままのあなた 目だけが合って

先に名を呼ぶ 声が掠れる

向かいに座って 「変わらないな」と

低く笑う声は 昨日のままで

目尻の皺が 少し増えてる

訊けば済むことを どちらも言わない

越した先の駅は 乗り換え二回

会おうと思えば 会えた春から

「今度ここで」が 言葉だけになる

切れたのじゃない 繋がなかったの

奥から一列 灯りが落ちる

伝票が置かれる 冷めていく皿

「今度ここで」の ここが消える夜

もう言えないのね そういうことね

シャッターが下りる 通りは暗い

握手みたいに 一度だけ触れて

「今度」は言わずに 右と左へ

ヒールのリズム いつものように

    Diner End Credits

    Akemi

Diner End Credits is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays a reunion after seven years, as the closing of a familiar diner brings an unfinished farewell into focus.

Removed menu boards, a fork paused in midair, and a plate of napolitan growing cold create a quiet setting where familiar gestures reveal how much time has passed. As the lights go out, the promise to meet here again loses the place that once gave it meaning.

Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the tenderness and self-awareness of someone who could have kept a relationship alive but chose not to reach back. Hearing a familiar voice again, she acknowledges what remains without making another promise.

Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era through the quiet lyricism of late night diners, remembered walks home, and the silences of reunion.

Outside the shuttered diner, they touch once, almost like a handshake, before walking in opposite directions. The familiar rhythm of her heels carries the ending back into everyday life, with no grand declaration to mark it.

Produced by nanayon music.
