The Night
There was a TV program tonight focusing on one singer -- Yutaka Ozaki. That was the name I forgot about for such a long time. But the impact was significantly strong; the way he sings, the lyrics, the style, the melody, and everything. By seeing him on the screen, I was seeing myself back in junior high school when my brother and sister were always singing his songs.

As I listened his songs now, it was a lot more to understand. When I was 15, I didn't really understand the truth in the songs. He was cool, sang well, and the attitude against a school, a society, teachers and friends was "cool" too and by pretending to understand him, I was also pretending to be somebody.

But now the lyrics mean a lot more to me. All the songs have very strong message. Something that everybody has in their mind, but blocked mentally and pretending not to notice...

Graduation

I gave a shit about behaving and following what others expect
I broke windows at a school after midnight
I kept going against and struggled
I just wanted to be free
Just free

We were always fighting against those who we didn't trust
What did we learn from that?
What did we forgive about?

I fed up with this but still kept going
The only thing that was clear to me then
It was a graduation
A graduation from the society
A graduation from the control

What are we going to learn from the graduation?
What else will it be left other than what we remember?

If we are the sheep bound tightly to the society,
Then are you the voice of the society?

Where do we address our anger?
To what will we be bound from now?
How many more times do we have to graduate
To get whom we are
To become ourselves

Nobody notices the freedom was set by the society
But soon the days will be over
The days we struggled
The days we fought

Graduation from the fight
Graduation from the control
Graduation from the society
