I will take your precious hand
And show you something more than dreams
Together, we’ll take my silent wish into the future
You have my word
Countless times I held tight to my hopes
I want to show you the future
I take that hand and now we begin to walk
Until we finally reach eternity
My fervent wish is to keep heading towards the future with you
That will never change
Since you are the reason I’m alive
Thinking about Ruki.. He had to mourn so many of his loved ones..
Of course all his songs are about death and grief... His life is nothing but continuous grief. But he takes all that pain and turns it into art. Songs for us , to help us, to heal us. Because his own capacity for pain allows him to reach people that are in depths of despair. That is his power.
Those messages from last week... I will not forget the infinite care and gentleness he showed.
Ruki: in our genre we become entirely different characters for each song or album concept, including the make-up and costumes, and are reborn as our fully new selves, right?
that’s interesting.
Ruki: so, what I wanna say is that for our next comeback we’ll be bringing our strongest sound, visuals and world views EVER so be prepared. for something so amaaaazing that nobody’s gonna be able to keep up.
Ruki: and then, we’re gonna take this new album, go round Japan and then to all kinds of countries. there’s nothing but to look forward to it, huh!
