–What about “Taion” lyrics?
Ruki: That’s… before, Reita and I saw a certain story online.
When we found that out, we were really overwhelmed. So, when I thought about
whether I can honour it somehow, I thought I’d leave behind the feeling of
being unable to entirely escape from something.
–The thing I felt when
listening to this song was a struggling feeling and sadness.
Ruki: Struggling…there’s that too. This is something that’s been
within me and that I wanted to write about since long ago. Even the song itself
is like a changed version of something from quite some time ago.
–If it’s that sort of
song…then you don’t really want to say that much about it, right?
Ruki: Right. In any case, the not being able to escape thing is
important. There’s a lot of reasons for it but, the question of “how do I keep
on with that?” is the point I wanted to communicate.
–Have you been liberated by
writing these lyrics?
Ruki: No, I’m not liberated. Because that thing still remains. I
can’t really put it into words, but it’s a really bad feeling in my gut, an
angry, vexing, sad one…one of wondering, “Why did it turn out like this?”
–It’s something that
escapes definition, isn’t it.
Ruki: Yeah…
–What about the title,
“Taion” (body temperature)? Since the word doesn’t appear in the lyrics.
Ruki: That’s the image I had in my mind. A warmth seen in one’s
final moments…or something like The Little Match Girl.
It’s cold, but at the very end it feels a little bit warm.
–The one last match?
Ruki: More like a helping hand. I don’t know what’s the best way
to express it but, if I wanted to put it into words, those lyrics are uneasy
and anguished. It’s a song I wanted to leave behind because I don’t want to
forget.
–Then let’s entrust that to
the listeners, as well.
Ruki: Yes…
