Did you ever feel so sad and just want to give up on everything? I felt it some weeks ago, I don't know why but everythigs just don't fit. I cried by myself for hours. But after hearing this song (And remembering Allah too of course hehe), myself becomes more calm. It was raining back then, but I was just happy.
Curious about what kind of song it is? Let's check!
"Seasons Die One After Another" (Kisetsu Wa Tsugutsugi Shindeiku)
Amazarashi
ENG Cover by Veia Tolentino
One by one, the seasons die, it's time to leave you,
If you cry into the wind, will I still hear you?
Looking up to the moon, I realize I got to,
Find a way to get the answers that are untold.
Every day I'm tripping in this mud I call life,
It feels as if the rain that pours pierces like a knife,
It seems that my eyes turn grey, as I look through the city,
And everybody's face looks as suspicious as mine.
Why Can't I accept the fact that this is truly me,
The shadow that has come to life is half of what it used to be,
If I sing in the rain, do you think the clouds will part?
But my life is now all dried up, thanks to the summer with you!
Dear my lonely past, I sing to you,
A final goodbye!
I have to cast away, the remains of these days,
It can't get any more worse than this, those nightmares I won't miss.
So in the next life, flowers will bloom,
The words back to you,
A song filled with so much pain, that I feel to this day,
But never to die out, truly, I will stay by your side.

| Kaneki Ken |
A little bit Synopsis: The suspense horror/dark fantasy story is set in Tokyo, which is haunted by mysterious "ghouls" who are devouring humans. People are gripped by the fear of these ghouls whose identities are masked in mystery. An ordinary college student named Kaneki that because one reason turn into a ghoul. So in other words, He's human but a monster too (?)
The song itself tells us Kaneki's feeling, the loneliness he felt because he can't live normally again with his bestfriend, the bellyful feel eating fresh human flesh because the daily human foods aren't tasty anymore, etc. But in the same time he felt the feeling of those ghouls, they aren't wrong being borned as ghoul, they just want to feel to be an ordinary human...
Hmm, and what relates the Anime and the Song?
It's very clearly explained in the lyrics, but i'll explain it a little bit based on my own thoughs hehe.
"...Why Can't I accept the fact that this is truly me,
The shadow that has come to life is half of what it used to be..."
Just imagine yourself being in the middle of two groups that are hostile? And actually, the reason why Kaneki became a ghoul is because of an 'experiment' that bind his soul with a ghoul named Rize. So,the shadow means Rize likelihood.

Rize Kamishiro is the reason
that kaneki turned into a ghoul |
And my favorite part:
"...Dear my lonely past, I sing to you,
A final goodbye!
I have to cast away, the remains of these days,
It can't get any more worse than this, those nightmares I won't miss.
So in the next life, flowers will bloom,
The words back to you,
A song filled with so much pain, that I feel to this day,
But never to die out, truly, I will stay by your side."
Here, Kaneki's feeling were drawn perfectly. It's just that he wanted to scream 'Why me?!" So epic...
What part do I like most?
"...Dear my lonely past, I sing to you,
A final goodbye!..."
The peak of the song. This part is just beautiful(:
A little bit comment
The real version of this song is actually japanese hehe, so I just hear the melody at the beginning because I don't really understand japanese...(((: The rhythm were beautiful and just cheerfull some way... When I see the meanings, I just fell love with this.
I really like this song. If you search for a similar type of this, I recommend you to hear "Unravel". (And watch the Anime ofcourse wkwwk)

The Videography?
Oh yeah, I warn you before you see the official video clip from this song...
At the beginning, there was a woman that was drawn as Rize the ghoul, eating raw flesh (it was meaned to be human flesh, I think...). Then, Rize go mad eating the flesh getting towards the end.It' OK to watch this, but truely i feltsick when I watch the video clip three times hehe. So, think twice:) but FYI, I prefer the real version then the english one.
