Lyric

LemonDrop

Kekko Seikatsu

いつの間にか時は流れていって

逃げも隠れもできない大人になった

子供の頃に想像してた

大人の姿と全然違うけれど

一丁前に暮らしている

一丁前に暮らしている

箪笥の奥で眠る

ナフタリンの匂いがついた

穴の空いたセーターを

直してまた着るこの冬に

気がついたらブラックコーヒー

飲めるようになったね

初めて見たエスプレッソの

小ささに笑い合った日を

忘れないでいようね

忘れないでいようね、きっと

今日喧嘩が多いのは

低気圧のせいよたぶん

増えすぎた荷物と過去

気がついたらブラックコーヒー

飲めるようになったね

初めて見たエスプレッソの

小ささに笑い合った日を

忘れないでいようね

忘れないでいようね、きっと

    Kekko Seikatsu

Formed in 2023, the folk band Kekko Seikatsu releases their first full-length album, monju. The album features sound engineering by the emerging composer MON/KU, with original artwork illustrated by Shishi Yamazaki.

Drawing on folk, Japanese kayōkyoku, and traditional music, the band uses twin lead vocals and rich three-part harmonies to capture the subtle emotional shifts and quiet, prayer-like sentiments that emerge in everyday life.

All nine tracks were recorded in the summer of 2025 at a band member's home in Tochigi Prefecture. The album was entirely self-produced and independently recorded.
