Episode 385 welcomes back Hitsujibungaku, the 3-piece alternative rock band known for their finely tuned yet powerful sound, a year and 7 months since their last performance on THE FIRST TAKE.
They will perform “more than words,” written as TV anime JUJUTSU KAISEN’s ending theme to Season 2 Shibuya Incident. The song has topped over 30 thousand streams and has become Hitsujibungaku’s biggest hit to date. The sheer simplicity of the songs is what gives it its impact.
Enjoy the one-hit performance of a song by this 3-piece band where Jujutsu Kaisen’s storyline and the personal struggles of Moeka Shiotsuka, the singer of the band, intertwine.

Alright OK Yes Let’s go Alright I think about the words he said, to me, over again Were they the words I wanted out of me? I wonder round and round again Lately I’ve been tired, and I’ve found myself Just giving in to every expectation

Holding in my words, they won’t need to know How I really feel, I’ve kept it in, but (oh) When you laugh, and say it all doesn’t matter There’s something there, still in you That’s trying its best to love yourself, I know you see it too

And know that there’s always more to the story But if you’ve been down, gone under I’ll be there, I have been there too just be by your side and give you more than words give you more than words

I take the letter to the screen, then start it over again Indecision’s got me overwhelmed I can’t, I can’t make up my mind There’s so much that I need to know about the world that I don’t I could pretend to be a know-it-all, then hurt from what I’m made to say

Lately I’ve been trying, and I’ve found myself Avoiding risks and all anticipation Lately I’ve been down, and I’ve found myself Trying to play it safe, don’t want to risk it Letting go of what, what I really want I’ve lost my train of thought, what was it I wanted?

It slips away from me, and now I’m used to being Stuck in this pool of sadness, disappointment Feeling like a fool, but there’s more to do It’s not over yet, better believe that it’s true ‘cause when it feels like there’s nothing you can do There’s something there, still in you

That’s wanting to believe that you, You can do it too And if this sounds like a pain that you’ve been through And in the night, you falter I’ll be right there to pull you through just be by your side and give you more than words give you more than words

（ get it now ） （ get it now ） No conceding now from here on, I will take the wheel Give it all I’ve got No conceding now from here on, I will take the wheel Give it all I’ve got I get it now

Where there’s a tunnel there’s a way out, do you see the light And you are there for me So what, just get it wrong, it’s how you’ll know how to make it right There’s no quitting now I get it now Let go of the math you know in your heart

What you want Here goes, now we can head to freedom More than ever now you know that this, this is what it takes Make every second count in this life, live only once Here’s your cue to hit the stage, the music’s here to stay Let me,

Let me show you how it could be give you more than words
