Lyric

The 17th World

THE SHAMISEN SPAKS

From zero’s dream, we started out

一つの鼓動が弧を描いた

Two blinks and I was here

もう戻れない

Three seconds in and I fell deep

4つの記憶が交差する

Five minutes before the future

Six questions pounding in my chest

After countless sleepless nights

Thirteen迷い、Thirteen祈り

Seventeen still has no answer

But somehow, I feel it here

Welcome to the 17th world

Where 1 meets 7, quietly unfurled

An unseen formula in my voice

叫ぶように歌う choice

22:22 — a broken sign

Pi spins ‘round this love of mine

No need for proof or plan

Just count the beats — I am

August 8th, we first met

9つ目の月が夜に咲く

In ten years I’ll still remember

Eleven doors were cracked open

Twelve crossroads, same mistakes

十四番目の夢が光る

Fifteen seconds, time stood still

Sixteen selves, all whisper still

Seventeen’s not just a number

それは出会いの signal

Inside this rhythm and this rhyme

I found your name in time

This is the 17th world

数学と魔法がまじわる night

A melody born of broken math

You don’t need to understand the path

3:17 AM, silence fell

それでも時は流れてる

The reason I keep breathing

この数に息づいてる

1 to 17, then into space

偶数と奇数が手を結ぶ

Can’t divide what we became

この問いが、愛の name

Step inside the 17th world

Where chaos turns to meaning

Equations bend to feeling

And numbers start singing

100や1000はいらない

“17” だけで生きていける

The world won’t always make sense

でもこの数は true and dense

Numbers aren’t just symbols

They are poems

They are voices

And sometimes…

They are us
