Based on Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, a book some of you may have read in school. It's pretty much on the same level of depression as Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human.
Lyrics are by cotton, who also did Villainous Self Riser!! Please give her a subscribe, she's so good at what she does. I love these lyrics to bits and pieces. I might have changed somethings here and there though ahah,,
✩ S/O to my Patrons!! ✩

✻ Lyrics ✻ (belongs to cotton, credit her please)
Though my heart is full of things I want to say to you,
I never seem to find the words, so please forgive me
When I woke up, I’d become a bug,
But I’m sure that’s a story you’ve heard quite enough
We’re a bit short on time, so I’ll have to try
To send a letter in the mail, but will it reach you?
Though there’s nothing good about today
I’ll board the first train and be on my way
Though I know I have to learn to walk before I run,
My legs just don’t appear to work, so please forgive me
The abelia’s are blooming bright,
Gazing down on the town sleeping tight
On the windowpane there was a tiny basking bug
And though I could have set it free, instead I crushed it
The summer breathes a gentle breeze
Over the white flowers swaying lovely
In the books that I’ve read,
Nothing felt quite like this
Days we cherish and miss
Someone fumbled with life
And pretended to die
We go along, singing a song, singing a song
To hear what our hearts have to tell
So might as well, oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well
Grow roses for more than their smell
You go along, so long, so long, so long, so long
You’ve wandered off so far away
And as I try to put these quaking words to pen,
I've run out of space to write again
One morning I awoke and was surprised to find
That my legs had multiplied while I was sleeping
It seemed I had become a bug
But I’m sure that’s a story you’ve heard quite enough
Since I had no family my form could frighten, I
Looked down upon the town as it was dreaming
The summer breathes a gentle breeze
You were always just as gentle with me
In time you may find
Humans lead such hateful lives
If I give up humanity,
Could I see you again, and would you smile at me?
I’ve always known,
Alone, alone, alone, alone
That I would end up on my own
But I will still
I will, I will, I will, I will,
Watch over the flowers until
I hear your song
So long, so long, so long, so long!
You might never sing it again
And as I try to put these quaking words to pen,
I've run out of time to write again
Ah, I knew, I knew
That not a single word I wrote was true
‘Cause there’s no way that I could turn into an insect,
And there’s no way you’ll ever read the letter that I sent
Ah, I knew, I knew
That there’s a price you have to pay to make your dreams come true
I knew it all along…
And even now, I grasp your letter in my hand
As if it’s the last thing I have
The words you wrote, the words I’ve always held so close
Are distant and fading like smoke
You went along, singing your song, singing your song
To hear what my heart had to tell
I haven’t told you yet the words I put to pen,
And once again
We go along, singing a song, singing a song
To hear what our hearts have to tell
So might as well, oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well
Grow roses for more than their smell
You go along, so long, so long, so long, so long
You’ve gone to live so far away
And as I try to put these quaking words to pen,
I've run out of time to write again
I've run out of space to write again
Though my heart is full of things I want to say to you,
I never seem to find the words, so please forgive me
When I woke up, I’d become a bug,
That’s the plot of the song that I’ve sung
Kafka has never been so emotional. If metamorphosis had this much heart maybe I wouldn't have fallen asleep reading it in school.
Hey Will! You crying too fam? 😂😭😭
Jokes on you I read the comic version
Dang that's level 💯
@@redrubyrose618 there's a comic?
@@DemonWolf295 Oh no...
From the two novels I've read from Dazai which include (no longer human) and (the setting sun) yes they are depressing but I quite enjoyed them because how raw they are. Because what he's conveying in his writing is true. We all feel like we are falling apart and failing. So we struggle until we find peace and our meaning in life. That's a huge part of being human. Accepting all our flaws and ugly traits, because if we don't we'll never be able to fix them.
Amen!
All of us have fallen short of God’s righteousness..,
Why hasn't anyone hired you to be a professional singer yet? Your voice is beautiful and amazing, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
Keaton Haereroa I guess that's true. She still has an amazing voice though!
Keaton Haereroa That's true :( I'm glad she's away from it then.
thats not true, thats like saying someones selling out if they are trying to make a career im sure they have their own reasons
Because unfortunately, the music industry only want bad singers they can autotune to death or good singers who don't mind filling their bodies or faces with plastic surgery.
@@danabrown0211 there are still decent to great ones who are neither of those, just have to look further, and beyond pop, onto other genres.
Last time I was this early Rachie couldn't sing
that was never by the way
I was finna slap a child till I read the whole thing
Kafka....bug..Oh.OH..that story about the man that turned into a bug due to overworking (it just hit it me now)
I didn't see any comments about your range?
Wow
It's impressive that you can sing low notes and high notes so well
Especially in First Train and Kafka, there are a lot of places where the notes are harder to hit and you hit all of them
😱😱😱😱
This is actually a really fun song to sing...
🌻🌻🌻🌻
it makes me want to cry when you can hear the sadness in her voice it sounds like she's about to cry at 3:54 and stuff
so I was playing pokemon to check what kind of breeding and catching I'd need to make my next team and when I looked back at this tab, I was almost certain the girl was Mallow.
Squishy Mythi OMG!!! SO IM NOT THE ONLY ONE!!!
English coverで一番好きです
始発とカフカありがとうございます
"If I give up humanity. Could I see you again, and would you smile at me?" That was the part when I got very confused and sad. At first I thought it was just a really cute song until I took a better listen at the lyrics and dang it hit me hard. I really like songs like this... and I really have no idea why I like songs that make me cry. This is so beautiful. When the song got sadder in the middle I started tearing up. This cover is absolutely beautiful.
THANK YOU THANK YOU AHHHH
you've already covered quite a few of the songs from karamatsu who locked himself inside a dream but this one is by far one of my favorites! now, please do sayonara wonder noise,,? ty rachie ily 💞✨
Kuroashi Sagishi Ah yes. The series where feels and tears are a FUCKING MUST
Kei GH yep that's the oNE
Kuroashi Sagishi I mean, Rise is a pretty good ending and all, BUT IT STILL DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT I'VE BASICALLY CRIED LIKE A BITCH BECAUSE OF THE VIDEOS BEFORE
What abt Theatre love song
I am late to the fucking club but man, I agree with y'all

TIME TRAVELER!
Macabre Reaper 1 day ago this guy is time traveler
Reminds me of Daybreak and Fireflies 😍😍
Both songs were made by the same producer so, I guess that's why. But they may sounds similar it's better to respect these songs as what they are and not compare them :>
Just my opinion tho
xXTheHowlingWolfXx Oh I wasn't trying to compare them. It just makes them both even more beautiful. The 😍😍 was saying that this song was beautiful. It just makes me happy when songs remind me of each other!
This feels like the other half of self achromatic
* self-inflicted achromatic
i really liked that song 😍😍😍
As someone who bought the book metamorphosis because of this song, i feel like once you read into the deep meaning of the book and the song it really hits hard.
I don't feel like typing it out so heres it in a nutshell:
When he wakes up, Gegor discovers hes become a cockroach, the longer he stays one, the less human he becomes, he cant speak after only a few minutes of being one, but he can always understand everyone. He cant bare to eat his favorite foods anymore. His father and mother cant bare to look at him or even go in his room, so his sister goes into his room to get him his food. Eventually everyone begins to ignore Gregor, once his father tried to kill him when he left his room. Gregor was the worker of the family, and he did all the work so his family could live in luxury, but now since he cant eork anymore his family is forced to start working, they eventually all begin to resent Greogor for dragging them down, and no longer take care of him, his sister throwing whatever leftovers they have left in his room (regardless of whether he likes them or not) then takes it out with a broom, not even stepping foot into his room. When Gregor finally dies they all rejoice and are happy, convincing themselves that that cockroach was not Gregor and that Gregor must have mysteriously vanished. Gregor could hear his family talking about him before his death and eventually decided it was best he die.
The whole thing is really sad despite the beginning having a bit of comedy.
The book is a metaphor for Gregor who got seriously ill from overworking and was bedridden, his family eho got used to being spoiled by his riches, were suddenly thrown into work and eventually began to resent him, and were relieved and very happy once he died.
You can find another comment that goes into the songs details bc i cant be bothered.
Hi I’m still obsessed with this song
same omg
Me too
She walks on bare foot like nothing
.
.
.
*TELL ME YOUR SECRETS*
Haru Phe-Yatsune my thoughts exactly
What's wrong with that??? O-o
Haru Phe-Yatsune because that's not an ungodly composition pavement road that has shards of glass and quartz in it for some reason, she'd be screaming otherwise :/
I don't want to say this..
But I guess it runs in the family..?
i mean she reminds me of menma from anohana....... white dress and bare feet.... the only two thoughts i remember from that anime is sobbing and also cringing about how she walks on fences with bare feet
“And as I try to put these quaking words to pen”
It’s just, so poetic and beautiful! Definitely my favorite part of this song :)
Nabuna+Rachie = a blessing. 😭❤
Picking for music competition
Wish me luck
Auditions start on Wednesday
The Kawaii Potato I'm late but good luck
Kerplatz 01 tbh your not late as long as I don’t get the karaoke hopefully by next year I get the karaoke
How’d it go?
Taekook World how did it go lol ?
how did i t go come on man
sounds like daybreak and fireflies
well the producer is the same so ...
yep.
it's also in the same key, uses the same instruments, and the precedent phrase in the beginning is very similar as it is in daybreak and fireflies.
idk it somehow reminds me of Astronauts either way all are pretty good songs
i mean astronauts ending also sound alike
Sion Hizuki its n-buna

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS. ITS BEEN WORTH THE WAIT....

Grow roses for more than their smell.
You go along.
So long,

So long.
You've wandered off so far away.

That I would end up on my own.
But still I will,
I will,
I will,
I will,
I will
Watch over the flowers until
I hear your song;
So long,
So long,

You might never sing it again.

they...were...already...in...the description....
@@sadsings Oh, I looked in the description but somehow did not find them at the time that I decided to comment the lyrics 😅 oh well, I might as well still keep the comment up. I guess I have to laugh at myself a little.
I wish someone would request akahitoha I haven't found any English covers and I think her voice would be perfect for it 😊😊
