I try not to remember
That smile of yours so bright
I try to hide your picture
That I stare at each night
I try not to think of you
When I’m all alone
But all I do is think of you
And wish you were my own

I try not to remember
Those moments we did share
I try not to remember
Those days that you were there
I can’t forget those eyes
I can’t forget those eyes
I try, try, try

I do everything I can
To help you leave my mind
And I just can’t understand
Why I still pray that you were mine
You were mine

Those eyes are the eyes
That I want to wipe the tears from
Those eyes are the eyes
That I want to take the fear from
Those eyes, eyes
Those eyes
Those eyes
I can’t forget those eyes

RELEASED ON SOUNDCLOUD: September 28, 2023

Those Eyes - DuBrae Mix

Good Flight

27 years ago today, September 28, 1996, I was on the platform of Sendai Station.

I dropped out of college to pursue my dream of becoming a professional musician. And on this day, I finally arrived at the station to head to Tokyo.

My dear friends I met during my university days came to see me off.
My beloved girlfriend, who I've only been dating for half a year, also came to see me off.

I stand in front of the door as the departure bell rings. 
I waved my hand while smiling, wanting to part with a smile. She just looked lonely and embarrassed, but still smiled awkwardly.

The moment the doors closed and the train started moving, her face was covered with her hands and she began to cry, but in a split second her figure faded further and further away.

At that moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of loneliness and regret, and tears overflowed all at once.

I managed to wobble to my seat, but the tears didn't stop and just kept overflowing.

Worried about me, an unknown old lady sitting next to me called out to me, ``Are you okay??Did something happen??''

I thought I had to stop crying, but I just couldn't control my emotions, so I sobbed and explained intermittently.

"I have a dream, so I'm leaving this town today, but because of that, I'm making the people I care about feel very, very lonely.
I really don't know if this decision was the right one. "

I think that's what I talked about.

The old woman rubbed my back and said, "It's okay, you're going to be okay," over and over again.

I continued to cry because of her kindness, without fear of being seen by others. I thought my eyeballs would melt and run off.

I have never cried so much in my life, and if tears have colors, I have never cried the same color as I did that day.

"All the dreams I dreamed that day have come true, and I'm still living happily with my girlfriend."

If I could say that, it would be a beautiful story, but unfortunately it didn't happen and in the end everything just fell out of my hands.

But still, life goes on today.

If there was a "second round" in my life, I often think that I would have done things that way at that time and in that situation.

But even if I could go back to that day again, I would leave. Even if you know the future 😉

It was the most emotional day of my life, but even though I thought, ``I never want to forget this day,'' the memory slowly fades away.

Even so, I wanted to somehow capture this moment forever, so I created this song.

(I chose the 25th anniversary because this song was created in 1998, about a year and a half after my departure. It was a cold winter morning on January 2nd.)

A song about the moment of departure and the days of long-distance love, big dreams and unchanging friendship.

Everything that I have cherished and nurtured is packed into this one song. I would be happy if you could listen to it🤗.

P.S. I'm currently translating the lyrics. I will update it later, so if you like this song, please read it.

Thank you so much for listening 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

Never Go Low

When I’m feeling low
When I’m feeling low
Makes me wanna mad
Makes me wanna mad
It makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna kolo
Makes me wanna kolo

At the junction of confusion
I’ll look up to the father
‘cos I’m keeping hopes alive that
I won’t die in the matters
And I will never go low
I will never go low
I will never kolo
I will never kolo

When I’m feeling low
When I’m feeling low
Makes me wanna mad
Makes me wanna mad
It makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna kolo
Makes me wanna kolo

Are you feeling low?
Are you feeling low?
Does it make you mad?
Does it make you mad?
I tell you never go low
Tell you never go low
And you will never kolo
You will never kolo

La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
When I’m feeling low
When I’m feeling low
Makes me wanna mad
Makes me wanna mad
It makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna go low
Makes me wanna kolo
Makes me wanna kolo

Depression is real
Depression is real
Never give it room
Never give it room
And you will never go low
You will never go low
You will never kolo
You will never kolo

Never Go Low

Day after day winding your way through the hills of grave reminders of those yesterdays
And after a day or two of wondering who… you’ll find, faces calling you back to a better time

Now and again, fear creeping in, riding out an average Monday on the metro line 
Your station passes by buying you time, time staring out the window at another life

Sink or swim, they tossed you in the deep end when all you wanted was cup of tea, some stability
A paint by number nicely ordered life, sometimes blue or green staying well within the lines  

Right as rain, stepping off the train and into a night alive with bright and shiny things saved normally for dreams
Taking the wrong way home, no one will mind, because no ones home these days, they’ve been away now, for a while

One… Two… Three... GO

We can take it all in stride
[Everybody's lost somebody]
And we will meet on the other side
[People come and go]
Take your pain let it make you stronger
Add your fear to make you feel alive

[Round and round and]
[Always around and around and around we go]
[Survey the grounds and note the highs and the lows]
Something’s in bloom but god only knows

So softly the wind blows through my window
Step outside to free my mind
A light in the night sky
A meteor flyby 
Catches my eye…
Record, Play, Rewind

We can take it all in stride
[Everybody's lost somebody]
And we will meet on the other side
[Everybody knows]
Take your pain let it make you stronger
Add your fear to make you feel alive

We can take it all in stride
[What'll I do without the daily routine, painting by numbers the blues and the greens]
And we will meet on the other side
[Survey the grounds and note the highs and the lows, something's in bloom but god only knows]
Take your pain let it wash away like tears in rain under a fearless sky

Record, Play, Rewind
