“Paper Cities (종이 도시들)” captures the fragile return.
Itsuke walks through Tokyo as if the city were made of paper — real, yet delicate, shaped by memory rather than certainty.
The streets remain the same, but something within him has shifted.
Buildings stand still, while his sense of belonging slowly fades.
He keeps moving — not to arrive, but to avoid standing still.
In this city of thoughts and unspoken moments, fragility becomes the only truth he can hold onto.
Fragile cities of dreams — folded from memories, carried by the wind of longing.
Every street holds moments that have faded, yet never truly disappeared.
Between paper and shadow live the things never said, the quiet goodbyes, the feeling that something might remain — even as everything slips away.
In these cities, one can find oneself — and lose oneself at the same time.

Lyrics

I came back…
but I’m not who I was.

The buildings still whisper —
but I don’t speak the same anymore.

I’m not lost —
just loud inside.
