Pour Bray Me, les paroles (traduites en anglais) de Kotani font références à la guerre en Ukraine :
“The Way To That Town”
I pray for safety, on the way to that town
“Missiles, gunshots, and screams come and go in the night,
Now is not the time to worry about the future”
The story of a town I don’t know
“I can hear it breaking”
The story of a town I don’t know
It’s an extension of what you see on the screen
When it hits you, you’ll finally understand
That’s just how it is
Driving this unthinkable sadness into a corner
So we can laugh at stupid things
In the corner of my mind, I thought, “If I can go to meet you someday…”
On that day, I’ll know, the way to that town
“I’ve prepared for my life to end tonight.
I pray that I’ll be safe and sound.”
People I’ve never met in a town I don’t know
The message that was addressed to here
Tonight, it’s been three days since I saw it
That’s just how social media is
Ignorant of even an ounce of those unimaginable tears
We always disregard them and go to sleep
I really thought, “If I can go to meet you someday…”
On that day, I’ll know, the way to that town
It’s like a movie, what’s happening in that town
It’s like a movie, what’s happening in this town
A prayer with no destination
Real sadness and pain
I don’t know it, I can’t know it
We’re doing the best we can with our hands full
That’s just how it is, it’s not my fault
Driving this unthinkable sadness into a corner
So we can laugh at stupid things
Until we meet one day, we’re at the center of each other’s worlds
Just passing the time for now
Really, unbelievable miracles keep piling up on top of each other
They happen every day in this town
I tend to lose sight of that
I remember it from time to time
I pray for safety, on the way to that town
C'est rien de dire qu'après l'avalanche de paroles un peu niaises comme sorties de bouquins d'"empowerment" qu'on a trop subi ces derniers temps, ce genre de texte infiniment plus personnel fait du bien. Ca me rappelle d'ailleurs de nouveau Bocchi The Rock et ses tentatives d'écriture de paroles, qui ne deviennent intéressantes que lorsqu'elle laisse tomber les poncifs et se livre.
Tiens, la vidéo de Nemophila a déjà disparu? Apparemment, il y'avait un souci technique et ils vont la republier une fois corrigée.
