息の途中 (In the Middle of Breath)
World-Scale Post-National Art Pop × Deconstruction minimal Shoegaze × Ambient dub × Abstract Onkyo-kei Post Rock × Breath-Time Driven Song, no BPM, no tempo grid, no groove, no drums, free timing, unmetered, floating time, voice leads, melody instruments follow, intimate, close, fragile whisper vocal, soft ambient Amp gain guitar or soft sustaining synth, no verse-chorus structure, no repetition, no climax, silence and pauses are part of the music, time flows by breathing and hesitation, this is living time, not counted time, do not aim for catchiness, do not aim for resolution Electric guitar is clean but solid, through real amp, direct amp tone, dry, mid-focused, present and forward, no acoustic guitar, no folk tone, no fingerpicking, no nylon string, no chorus, no shimmer, guitar should stand equal to vocal, not background texture A large-scale, genre-blending pop form where fragmented genres are reorganized into a single unstable perceptual system rather than a fixed musical style.

Lyrics
[Verse]
窓が 少し
明るすぎて
名前のない
音が 残る
息を
置いて
また 忘れる
何を
待ってたか
もう 知らない
[Verse]
床に 影が
ほどけて
床に 影が
ほどけて
時間が
薄くなる
言葉は
まだ
来ない
ただ
呼吸だけ
先に 行く
先に 行く
先に 行く
[Chorus]
ここに
いる
たぶん
いる
それだけで
少し
多い
[Verse]
カップの底に
音はなく
手のひらだけ
残ってる
触れた
気がして
やめた
やめたまま
続いてる
[Outro]
息が
何も
起きない
それで
いい
いい
[End]

[Verse]
The window
is a little
too bright
A nameless
sound
stays behind
I leave
my breath
and forget it again
What I was
waiting for
I don’t know anymore
⸻
[Verse]
Shadows
on the floor
come undone
Shadows
on the floor
come undone
Time
gets thin
Words
haven’t
arrived yet
Only
the breath
goes first
Goes first
Goes first
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m
here
Probably
here
Just that
feels
like a little
too much
⸻
[Verse]
There’s no sound
at the bottom of the cup
Only
my palm
remains
I thought
I touched it
and stopped
Still stopped
and still going
⸻
[Outro]
The breath
Nothing
happens
That’s
fine
Fine
[End]
