アイムハイ (I'm High) (feat. Hatsune Miku)

Maretu's song 'アイムハイ (I'm High)' featuring Hatsune Miku delves into the complex and often painful landscape of human emotions. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of sorrow, regret, and the struggle to find meaning in a world that often feels indifferent. The recurring imagery of tears and wounds symbolizes deep emotional pain, while the references to forgetting and laughing at the absurdity of it all suggest a coping mechanism for dealing with such intense feelings.

The song's chorus, which urges the listener to 'dance' and 'break' the state of being broken, speaks to the resilience required to navigate emotional turmoil. The lines '君よ、躍て / 当たり前みたいに壊れた状態を / 砕け' (You, dance / Break the state of being broken as if it's normal) highlight the paradox of finding strength in vulnerability. This theme is further emphasized by the metaphor of a pomegranate, with its red, wounded interior representing the raw, exposed nature of human emotions.

Maretu's use of Hatsune Miku, a virtual singer, adds another layer of complexity to the song. The artificial yet emotionally charged voice of Miku juxtaposes the raw human emotions described in the lyrics, creating a unique blend of the digital and the deeply personal. This contrast underscores the modern struggle of finding genuine emotional connections in an increasingly digital world. The song ultimately suggests that while pain and regret are inevitable, there is also a certain beauty in the resilience and the ability to laugh at the absurdity of life.

The final verses, which speak of living on despite the end of dreams and the coldness of reality, encapsulate the song's message of perseverance. The imagery of a 'cold, transformed body' and 'living on with your ending dreams' suggests a journey of transformation and acceptance. Maretu's 'アイムハイ (I'm High)' is a poignant exploration of the highs and lows of human emotions, urging listeners to find strength in their vulnerability and to embrace the absurdity of life with a smile.
