何ひとつさえ得られない

何ひとつさえ得られない

何ひとつさえ得られない

誰一人さえ判ってない

誰一人さえ判ってない

誰一人さえ判ってない

彼らも救いようがない

彼らも救いようがない

彼らを救う理由もない…もう

こんな場所にはいられない

こんな場所にはいられない

こんな場所にはいられない

何ひとつさえ変わらない

何ひとつさえ変わらない

何ひとつさえ変わらない

こんなままじゃ終われない

こんなままじゃ終われない

こんなままじゃ終われない

悲しみを覆い隠して

悲しみを覆い隠して

悲しみを覆い隠して

あの日々を眠らせて

あの日々を眠らせて

あの日々を眠らせて

闇に光見出して

闇に光見出して

闇に光見出して

この夜を追い越して

この夜を追い越して

この夜を追い越して

今こそ歩き出して

あの日々を眠らせて

新たに歩き出して

この夜を追い越して

今重ねてきた全ての日々や

手にしていた未来を捨て去ってでも

明日へ 明日へ

立ち止まってた切ない季節よ

胸の痛みよ

さよなら またいつか会う日まで

またいつか会う日まで

またいつか会う日まで

あの日々を眠らせて

あの日々を眠らせて

あの日々を眠らせて

この夜を追い越して

この夜を追い越して

この夜を追い越して

いつだって本気だった

確かに本気だった

"A melody that illuminates the darkness of the heart-
a sound that unlocks the soul and leads you back to yourself."
later., the long-awaited album by sonic poet Akinobu Nishihara, unfolds as a luminous journey through flickering shadows and fleeting light.
Here, shimmering textures and lyrical depth converge across twelve tracks-including newly reimagined versions of beloved songs "Weather Report"and "Daybreak", as well as the haunting new piece "Monochrome."
With melodies as fragile as glass and sharp as truth, this album captures a world suspended between solitude and hope.
The deluxe pre-release edition, presented as an experiential artwork transcending conventional music, sold out immediately.
More than an album-later. is an encounter. One that lingers, long after the music fades.
