Lyrics

Japanese

いつまで待ったって　そう... you don't call me back
message 残すのそろそろ飽きたよ
can't you make me feel so right?
でも諦めきれない
心を縛ったままのあなたの（コトバ）

(Everything I have been through)

だけど見つけ出せない

(Tell me where you should belong to)

逢いたい気持ちが

Touch me Kiss me fill me
I need you to be mine
tracing you still
can't you tell why you are walkin' away from me
Trust me hold me love me
All I need is just you
each time I see trusting you and I'll be
waiting for you to be mine

Romaji

itsumade mattatte sou... you don't call me back
message nokosu no sorosoro akita yo
can't you make me feel so right?
demo akirame kirenai
kokoro wo shibatta mama no anata no (kotoba)

(Everything I have been through)

dakedo mitsuke dasenai

(Tell me where you should belong to)

aitai kimochi ga

Touch me Kiss me fill me
I need you to be mine
tracing you still
can't you tell why you are walkin' away from me
Trust me hold me love me
All I need is just you
each time I see trusting you and I'll be
waiting for you to be mine

English

Song Production Information

It's been a long time, everyone!
I happily said "I can participate in IIDX again!" after having this discussion with dj TAKA, but I had mixed anxious feelings about whether I could "create a song that can be accepted by everyone".
This time, I'm participating as a remixer, so after I thought about various songs, I chose to remix TaQ's song traces, which provided me with a lot of inspiration and personal attachment.
I created this song from the remix theme, "how to betray everyone's expectations (in a good way)".
I encountered various problems, but I'm very happy that I finally created this song in a form I could accept.
Please try to play this song very well without being affected by the irregular rhythms.

Video Production Information

I created this video in a way like altering footage instead of choosing which materials to include.
This kind of working method is also very interesting.
