I wish I could be a bird.Yonezu Kenshi

It’s a song sung by the popular singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu, told from a woman’s perspective who says that if she can’t be chosen by the person she loves, she’d rather become a bird and stay by his side.

The tune itself doesn’t feel dark or disturbed, but don’t you sense a hint of shadow in lyrics like “You are my everything” and “I’ll follow you even if I have to become something else,” which is a bit unusual for a straightforward love song? If a human actually did this, it would be full-on stalking… It’s very easy to listen to, so please give it a try.

Lullaby Goodbye / Kenshi Yonezu [Solo Acoustic Cover]
Lullaby, goodbyeYonezu Kenshi

It’s a philosophical piece about bidding farewell to the world one lives in.

It’s a song by singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu, included as a B-side on the 2017 single “orion.” The lyrics are filled with sharp words about the distance between oneself and others and about modern society, and listening to it pierces the heart.

That said, I imagine many people feel the same way.

It’s perfect for those solitary moments when you want to take your time and think.
