At this rate, the possibility of dying alone is getting real—

人知れずhito shirezuぽつんpotsunとto死ぬshinuならnara夏場natsubaはwa嫌だiya daなnaなんてnante思ったりomottari

What's popular now is singing and dancing or hip-hop taking over

「「ただいまtadaima」」もmo「「おかえりokaeri」」もmoないnai日々hibiがga人生jinseiのno半分以上hanbun ijouをwo占めshime

Days without "I'm home" or "welcome back" make up more than half my life—
