End of Time

[Verse 1]
I built a castle out of pixels and dust
A neon kingdom
Where I put my trust
The sky's electric
The stars don't blink
The ground is shifting
I can't even think

[Chorus]
Digital mirage
Is it real or a dream
Floating through the wires
Caught in the stream
Digital mirage
Where I lose my face
Glitching through the code
In this endless space

[Verse 2]
I hold my heart like a data drive
Upload my love just to feel alive
The world resets
But I stay the same
A ghost in the system
Whispering my name

[Prechorus]
Colors crash
They collide
But there's no one by my side

[Chorus]
Digital mirage
Is it real or a dream
Floating through the wires
Caught in the stream
Digital mirage
Where I lose my face
Glitching through the code
In this endless space

[Bridge]
Time loops
It breaks
It bends
Every start feels like the end
Echoes of a voice I knew
Fading fast
Was it you

Digital Mirage

Album Commentary: Resilience
Following the epic voyage initiated in Voices carry through history, the artist continues their journey with Resilience—an album that traverses the landscapes of history, reincarnation, and our shared human memory. Within this passage, we seek to uncover the essence of resilience—the capacity to endure, adapt, and transform through adversity.
The album opens with tracks like “Caracole” and “Plexus,” which move fluidly through tangled memories and shifting conditions, evoking a sense of graceful navigation through complexity. From there, the journey deepens into the search for enigmatic presences (“JOKER”) and the emotional core (“Kernel”) that anchors our inner world.
Midway through, the theme of Negative Capability emerges—a concept introduced by poet John Keats, describing the ability to remain in uncertainties, mysteries, and doubts without the irritable reaching after fact and reason. Through this lens, the album explores what it truly means to be strong—not through control, but through surrender to ambiguity.
The contrast between sanctuary (“Hestia”) and its shadow (“Hestia dark side”) reveals the duality of refuge and vulnerability. The “Mail carrier” acts as a bridge, connecting messages and memories across time, leading us toward the album’s central revelation: Resilience.
Finally, we arrive at “Cradle”—not merely a place of rest, but a symbolic convergence of beginning and end. It is the quiet, powerful space that awaits beyond acceptance and transcendence, where all contradictions dissolve.
These twelve tracks form a mythic arc—a sonic journey that invites listeners to reflect on the past, embrace the unknown, and awaken their own inner resilience.

アルバム解説：レジリエンス
『Voices carry through history』で始まった壮大な旅路に続き、アーティストは『Resilience』で旅を続ける。このアルバムは、歴史、輪廻転生、そして人類共通の記憶という風景を横断する。この旅路の中で、私たちはレジリエンスの本質、すなわち逆境に耐え、適応し、変容する能力を明らかにしようとする。
アルバムは「Caracole」や「Plexus」といった曲で幕を開ける。これらの曲は、絡み合った記憶や移り変わる状況を流れるように描き、複雑な世界を優雅に航海する感覚を呼び起こす。そこから、旅は謎めいた存在（「JOKER」）と、私たちの内なる世界を繋ぐ感情の核（「Kernel」）の探求へと深まっていく。
アルバムの中盤では、詩人ジョン・キーツが提唱した「ネガティブ・ケイパビリティ」というテーマが浮かび上がる。これは、事実や理性を追い求める苛立ちに駆られることなく、不確実性、謎、疑念の中に留まる能力を表現している。このレンズを通して、このアルバムは真の強さとは何かを探求しています。それは、コントロールすることではなく、曖昧さに身を委ねることです。
聖域（「ヘスティア」）とその影（「ヘスティア・ダークサイド」）の対比は、安息と脆さという二面性を浮き彫りにします。「郵便配達人」は橋渡し役となり、時を超えてメッセージと記憶を繋ぎ、アルバムの核となる啓示である「レジリエンス（回復力）」へと私たちを導きます。
そして「ゆりかご」へと辿り着きます。それは単なる安息の場ではなく、始まりと終わりが象徴的に収束する場所です。そこは、受容と超越の先にある、あらゆる矛盾が溶け合う静かで力強い空間です。
これら12曲は神話的な弧を描き、リスナーを過去を振り返り、未知を受け入れ、そして内なるレジリエンス（回復力）を目覚めさせる音の旅へと誘います。
