When someone I love begins to cry
What can I do, I wonder why
ベッドに横たわる
君を今日も見ていた
Some pain no words can ever reach
That staying close can heal the pain
永遠と思ったモノが
透明な風になって
Even if no answers remain
I’ll keep asking again and again
押しつぶされる
押しつぶされる
There are days I want to turn away
When cruel words cut, and I can’t stay
打ち消された過去は消えずに
打ちのめされた傷は癒えずに
Nights when loneliness feels too strong
But after it all, I’ll find where I belong
一喜一憂しつづけても
終わるらせる勇気はなく
There’s a light that makes it all worthwhile
No matter how many times
I thought I’d hold it tight
No matter how many times
I thought I’d hold it tight
No matter how many times
I thought I’d hold it tight
It slowly slipped away, far beyond my reach
No matter how many times
I thought I’d hold it tight
If someone speaks harsh words to you
You don’t need to listen it’s not true
画面の中の
聞く価値もないNOIZE
It’s precious because it’s so easy to break
So hold every moment for your own sake
その透き通った手に握る
10%の決意と
Protect the flame within your chest
Keep it alive and do your best
何度でも何度でも
消えかけた炎を絶やさず
Even in a world so cold
Your warmth will never fade be bold
Stand your ground Hold the line
Grow old and return to the earth so mild
Hold the line
You must have been so scared inside
Knocked down again, time after time
But you rose up still, with a will to climb
もがいて
苦悩して
戦って
強がって
Deep in your heart
The fear remained
Tearing apart
Tearing apart
気持ち
繋ぐ
果てるその時まで
Those final words, the ones we shared
I still remember how much you cared
いつの日か戦うことすら諦めて
脅威から怯え目をそむけた
この手のひらからこぼれた
90パーセントの臆病さと
10パーセントの壮烈な様を
Even in a world so cold
この冷たい世界でも
Your kindness will never fade away
Your kindness will never fade away
君の暖かさは消えず
Never lose the light within you
Never lose the light within you
自分の中に響く
光を見失わないで
Never lose the light within you

CHRONOMETER Announces New Album "EvolAwakening" After 6 Years - A Bold Evolutionary Awakening!
Formed by former members of BENTROOT, who were active in Japan's punk and hardcore scene from the '90s to early 2000s, CHRONOMETER made a powerful debut in 2015 with their first album, based on a digital rock sound.
In 2019, they returned to their roots with a second album that abandoned programmed sounds for a raw, live band style rooted in the essence of mixture rock.
Despite a limited schedule, they solidified their unique world through nationwide tours and appearances at various festivals, centered around Tokyo.Now, in 2025
After a long-awaited six years, CHRONOMETER is set to release their brand new album "EvolAwakening"!
The title is a coined term combining Evolution and Awakening, representing both the journey CHRONOMETER has walked and the bold new evolution embodied in this album.
While rooted in loud rock, EvolAwakening highlights even more emotional guitar ensembles and uniquely crafted vocal lines, presenting a fresh and progressive take on "POST MIXTURE" music.
This is not just a new album it marks a true rebirth for CHRONOMETER and a daring leap into a brand new chapter
Artist Profile
CHRONOMETER
From the ashes of the influential punk and hardcore scene of the 90s and early 2000s, former members of BENTROOT formed a new powerhouse: CHRONOMETER. Based in Tokyo, the band evolved through multiple lineup changes before releasing their debut album in 2015, showcasing a digital rock inspired sound. Their second release marked a return to their roots, removing electronic elements in favor of raw instrumentation. With influences ranging from rock, hardcore, emo, to electro, CHRONOMETER embraced a more emotionally charged "Mixture" sound that reflected their origins. Now, their third album introduces a bold new concept: "Kakusei Shinkaron", a fusion of evolution and awakening. It captures the journey CHRONOMETER has taken so far, while pointing toward their continuous growth. Rooted in loud rock, the album features emotionally rich guitar ensembles, creative vocal lines, and for the first time in their career, lyrics in Japanese. Their one-of-a-kind sound, shaped through the CHRONOMETER filter, is a must-hear. CHRONOMETER is ready to redefine the POST MIXTURE sound, straight out of Tokyo.
