Lotus ((vv))

Can survive in a hostile environment.
Rarely opens itself to others.

"Lotus" was our main release from last year. This is a concept album about disease as a transformation agent. Musically, this is a psychedelic journey that covers Stoner, Far East, Cante Jondo, Freak Folk, European psychedelia and Krautrock.

You can get this EP on Bandcamp for less than the price of a coffee. All proceedings go to support other underground acts.

Lotus EP

Wake of the Lotus

■概要(Overview)
あ～今日も楽器のお稽古に疲れちゃったわ～
左手が上手く動かないのよね～関係ないけどお腹空いたし
パン屋に寄って帰ろう
あ、そうだ、左手にトングを持って左手の練習してみようかな
え～っと、ドーナツは・・あっ、でも今日はチョココロネが食べたい気分
・・はっ！・・視線を感じる・・ドーナツの！
------------------
・・・・そんな事を想像して作った曲です。

Ah, I'm tired from practicing my instrument today too.
My left hand isn't working properly. It doesn't matter, but I'm hungry.
Let's go to the bakery and go home.
Ah, that's right, I think I'll try holding the tongs in my left hand and practice my left hand.
Um, donuts... ah, but today I feel like eating chocolate coronet.
...Ha! ...I feel the gaze...of the donut!
---------------------------
...This is a song I created while imagining something like that.

■歌詞
「いらっしゃいませ！」
パン屋に寄ったの帰り道
クルミパンとチョココロネ
ああ　ドーナツを選ばなかった

それでもやっぱり気になって
チラッと横目で見てしまう
綺麗に並んだドーナツが
悲しそうだ

笑顔にするため
生まれてきたのに
通り過ぎるなんて
出来なくなっていた

♪♪♪(あなたの事を待っていた)♪♪♪

左利きのふりして(優しい手で今)
トレーにのせた
震える手で落とさないように

自分でもわからない
そんなこと
くだらないよ
見せかけだよ
偽善的だよ
自分に酔ってさ
(あなたが決めた事)

もしも私がこのドーナツを
手に取らなかったら
そして気まぐれを起こさなかったら
おやつ食べた天使の笑顔
見れたかもしれないのに


毎週買ってたドーナツ
たまには食べたいチョココロネ
ああ　誘惑に　負けてしまった

心の声：「それなら一緒に買っちゃいな」
心の声：「甘いものならばいくらでも食べきれるはずよ」
心の声：「迷いは不要よ」

♪♪♪(あなたの笑顔見れるかな)♪♪♪
♪♪♪

優柔不断で風見鶏
煮え切らないの　それって・・駄目ね
曇った心で純粋なあなたの気持ちを
ふざけた左手で触って壊した
天使の笑顔が見れたはずなのに

「無意味」なだけじゃなくて
「有害な存在」であると気付いた

♪♪♪♪♪♪

(甘い誘惑ね・・)
(正解は無いわ)
(あなたの思うままでいいはずよ)

何も望むものは無いわ
ドーナツが寂しそうだったから・・

もしも私がこのドーナツを
手に取らなかったら
そして気まぐれを起こさなかったら
おやつ食べた天使の笑顔
見れたかもしれないのに


(私たちには選択権が無いの)
(あなたは恵まれた環境にいるくせに・・)
(公園のベンチの真ん中に座って)
(ひじ掛けに左手を置いて)
(遠くの空を眺めながら)
(ため息をつく)
(そうやってかじった一口目の私はさぞかし甘いでしょうね)
(二口、三口と食べ続けて)
(最後の一口を食べ終える頃)
(あなたはすっかり忘れているはずよ)
(私たちの事を)
(まるで初めから存在しなかったかのように)

子供：「お母さん、ドーナツ食べたいよ」
母親：「さっき笹団子食べたばっかりでしょ」
子供：「えーっ、もっと、もっとー！」
母親：「いい加減にしてちょうだい」

(・・・いらっしゃいませ！)

■Lyrics
"welcome!"
On the way home from a stop at the bakery
Walnut bread and chocolate coronet
Oh she didn't choose donuts

Still, I'm still curious
I glance sideways
Donuts lined up neatly
Looks sad

to make people smile
was born
Thinking like that, I can't just pass by
could not


♪♪♪(I was waiting for you)♪♪♪

Pretending to be left-handed (with gentle hands now)
I put it on the tray
I was careful not to drop it with my trembling hands.

I don't even know myself
Such a thing
It's trivial
It's just a sham
That's hypocritical
get drunk on yourself
(That's your decision)

If I didn't put this donut on the tray
And if I don't cause a whim
The smile of an angel who ate a snack
they could have seen

Donuts I bought every week
Chocolate corone that I want to eat once in a while
Ah, I gave in to temptation.

Voice in my heart: “Then let’s buy it together.”
Inner voice: "If it's sweet, I'm sure I can eat as much as I want."
Voice in my heart: “There’s no need to hesitate.”

♪♪♪(Can I see your smile)♪♪♪
♪♪♪

Weathervane with indecision
My heart doesn't boil over. That's no good.
With a clouded heart, your pure feelings
I playfully touched it with my left hand and broke it.
I should have seen the smile of an angel

Not just “pointless”
I realized that I was a “harmful presence”

♪♪♪♪♪♪

(Sweet temptation...)
(There is no correct answer)
(It should be whatever you want)

There's nothing I want
However, I thought Donut looked lonely...

If I didn't put this donut on the tray
And if I don't cause a whim
The smile of an angel who ate a snack
they could have seen

(We don't have a choice)
(Even though you are in a privileged environment...)
(You're sitting in the middle of a park bench)
(You put your left hand on the armrest)
(While you look at the distant sky)
(You sigh)
(The taste of your first bite of mine will be really sweet.)
(Keep eating two and three bites)
(By the time you finish your last bite)
(You must have completely forgotten)
(about us)
(As if it never existed in the first place)

Child: "Mom, I want to eat donuts."
Mother: “You just ate bamboo dumplings, right?”
Child: “Eh, more, more!”
Mother: “Please take it easy.”

(···welcome!)

Irasshaimase!(Welcome!)

*

Separation is the stage where we make our thoughts and emotions more defined by practicing introspection, self-awareness, and self-analysis.

A simple example of this process is understanding the difference between our anger and our grief or the conflicting desire to isolate ourselves but also connect with other people.

The process of separation involves truly becoming aware of our authentic feelings towards others and ourselves. In this stage, we choose to experience our anger, frustration, or disappointment towards another or ourselves, rather than reverting back to the old habit of dutifully trying to “forgive and forget” because it is the “right” or comfortable thing to do (or, on the other hand, to react and hold a grudge).

Separation is closely entwined with shadow work in that we must allow all feelings and thoughts within us to surface side by side and become aware of our “darker side.” This practice helps us to isolate particular elements of our character to honestly see and assess them, then to eventually consciously embrace and transform them."
