失幽名 - Shiyoumei, Sorrow Of Being Seen (v1.)

[Intro, Ambient Fade-In, Lo-fi Guitar Loop, Whispered Vocals] Shee-yoh-may (失幽名).... No longer anonymous... who am I? [Verse 1, Fingerpicked Guitar, Looped Texture] I lived at the edge of things in the spaces between sound a figure behind the curtain unnoticed, unnamed where silence felt like shelter and no one asked for more [Pre-Chorus, Gentle Organ Drone] There was no voice just breath, just being [Chorus, Light Harmonics, Layered Vocals] Then something opened a light I didn’t ask for and hands reached toward me calling a name the silence I loved was taken, melted down turned into something to hold by people who couldn’t hear it [Bridge, Ambient Noise, Soft Piano Tones] Shizuka na yoru ni, watashi wa kieta Watashi no namae wa... dare no mono?- My name... whose is it now.......? [Verse 2, Distant Vocal Echoes, Sparse Guitar] They look like they see me but it’s only a reflection They look like they see me but it’s only a reflection shaped by their wanting They give me back a name but it feels borrowed like clothes that never fit [Pre-Chorus, Faint Electronic Pulses] I turn my eyes not in shame, but confusion because I don’t know what they’re seeing anymore Shee-yoh-may (失幽名).... No longer anonymous... who am I? [Chorus, Vocal Layering, Lo-fi Choir Effect] I give them what they expect a smile, a stillness but something inside detaches The one I used to be floats somewhere they can’t follow I once belonged to the wind Now I belong to the name [Outro, Soft Loop, Vocal Fragmentation, Fade] Shee-yoh-may (失幽名).... A voice in the dark the sorrow of being visible without knowing the reason Shee-yoh-may (失幽名).... The shadow’s cry The grief of being seen And no longer knowing why [Intro, Ambient Fade-In, Lo-fi Guitar Loop, Whispered Vocals] Shee-yoh-may (失幽名).... No longer anonymous... who am I?
