Lyrics
Words that I force, sadly, back down my throat
They still follow, trailing after me
Words I spit out when the frustration takes me
There's no taking them back now, that I know
When I make the words in my mouth they taste like lies
When I let them form it just smears away the meaning
Not a single thing that I can make the way that I want
I know, I'm simply worthless...
I love you so, Vivi! And when tomorrow comes along
Bye-bye is what I'll say when I turn and walk away
Oh this sleepy little town, nearly ashes on the ground
I'll leave it all behind, even thoughts of you and I...
As I write down the letter I'd give to you
All these things started coming back to me
Even so, darling, as lovely as you are
Not a thing appeared on the page, not a word
Why does it always have to be this way with words?
Why do they twist and turn into heavy, leaden lies?
Why is it words fly away just like birds?
Why do they turn to dirt?
I love you so, Vivi! And when tomorrow comes along
The us we knew today, will have long since passed away
Just forget I said a thing, anything I said at all
There's not a single thing I need to tell you anymore...
Colours melting all in amber shades
A balloon falls; flying away a caribou
There, a legless turkey cast in bronze
Dancing the night away a cheerful cuckoo
Noisy, restless, the news keeps going on
"Children from the town, they vanish one by one!"
Though I cry, I'll carry on singing
As a fish quietly watches me...
Even though my heart is hopeless beyond repair--
I'll go onwards; I'll walk along with you
I love you so, Vivi! And when tomorrow comes along
Bye-bye is what I'll say when I turn and walk away
Oh this sleepy little town, nearly ashes on the ground
I'll leave it all behind, even thoughts of you and I...
Oh, I let out all those words, and I finally felt your touch,
And yet despite all that, I said nothing at all
Oh, I love you so, Vivi
I love you so, Vivi
Say goodbye to me, Vivi, since that's all our love comes to

Eleven years after posting this, I still get comments and I’m so grateful to all of you here, sometimes even years later. Some of your words are so sad, and I feel for you if this song relates to your painful experiences - you are worthy, you are useful, you belong, you mean something, you are not defined by your past, and you are definitely not defined by your pain. Love you all for being here with me after all this time, and I hope you can find your light on cloudy days.
Much love - Road 💕
Thank you❤️
When I found this I was still a kid. I think it was in a playlist that I listened to every night, crying my eyes out. Every step since then lead me back here to this song, at age 23. From the bitter, angry, hopelessness I felt before, now I see acceptance, grieving, and gratitude. Bye bye Vivi. You didn't know, but I grew you inside my heart. By the time we met again, turns out we'd never left at all. I never need to say goodbye again, because I've grown to become my best friend.
大好きです
I've been listening to this song since middle school and despite the years, it's remained possibly my favorite cover of all time. an already great song paired with great vocals!
This song has been with me for years. I'm listening to it properly for the first time in years and your voice is magical as always
"It's nice to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
So the name vivi means "to live" in many languages. If you exchange vivi with a metaphor to live this song gets a completely new meaning.
And that's how I've always interpreted this song..
I think it makes much more sense if related to the lyrics.
I love you so to live
Vivi means, in brazilian portuguese, something like " Lived "
That’s my name and I feel special now
@@Vivisco 3 years ago now, times flies ^^ (since I made the comment)

(tears are all over my face right now.. i hope you and your friend are doing okay, after all these years.
thank you for sharing)
This has got to be my absolute favorite song. Kenshi yonezu is so clever with his lyrics. And the direct translation from japenese is simply heartbreaking.
The imagery in the bridge is Especially vivid and descriptive.
The entire song is written about “vivi” where the adjective “viv” means, in many languages, “to live”.
So from this we have two possible interpretations of the song. This song can be thought of as a song about a girl, who is his “vivi” or “his life”. A more accurate interpretation i think is that vivi is his life.
This is solidified as he talks about writing a letter. The entire song is about him not being able to say the right things, before he leaves every thing behind. In his words he says “I leave behind, and you with it..” in a sense he’s leaving behind his life.
And the ending verse solidifies as he sings “I love you, Vivi,
But all our love is, is a goodbye..”
I know that Yonezu’s grandfather was someone he valued in his life very much and I think he wrote this song for him after he passed.
For me sometimes i relate to this song. I feel like no matter how much i love my life and the people in it everything would be so much better without me in it.
It feels all my love comes to “is a goodbye.” And i find solace in the fact that one of my favorite singers shared this feeling.
Never take this down bc this song means so much to me too. Literally cried so many times at 3 am to this
I always knew this song had some sort of sad tone to it, but this cover actually made me cry now that I know what it means
it can sound spooky, right? but it really isn't. its talking about how children from the town are growing up and leaving, going to look for bigger futures. people talk about them behind, talking about the possibility of them reaching their goals, or exclaiming when they see them famous or on tv.
I see it as the singer not being able to convey his true feelings to his love partner, and eventually leaving them behind.
there's also a theory that the singer is deformed in the original music video, because the singer may view himself as a monster, and maybe that could be why he left "vivi" behind.
@@Rre-u1k i definitely see thsi as well for the song as a whole, when I wrote this I was thinking more so of the bridge tbh
@@Rre-u1k full disclosure i've not seen the MV this is the cover that introduced me to vocaloid and I've not even searched for others bc I love it so much but that's interesting
@@tomlialucina2300 oh you should check the original! It's super good and maybe it could help you understand the song better! Kenshi Yonezu is the original artist.
This is the only English cover of this song I can actually listen to more than once. Your voice suits it nicely. ( The song is about suicide for those who do not understand. )
Where did you find that explanation? Yes it is a beautiful and sad song.
I see where you get this from also, but if you think about the fact that he does not mention anything of vivi until the chorus, it wouldn't be about a girl or a love. Plus, vivi translates to 'Life' in Latin. He talks a lot in this about himself, and how he is worthless and finds it hard to express his feelings. He also tries to write a letter to life, trying to express his own feelings but can't. I thought it sort of stood for a suicide note. The flowers at the end symbolize him saying goodbye once more, and that's him killed himself. Just what I thought, but again I can see how your explanation could fit too. That's why I love this song also.
It issss.~~ Life would be easier, but nope, they didn't .-.
It might not be interesting but I once read the theory that (since it looked like Humpty Dumpty in the Original Video) the Song is actually about a Girl growing up and doubting the fairy tales and stories she believed in as a child, thus the guy (personification of a Character she imagined, I assume) saying his "words soundind like lies", etc. And he has to say Goodybe because she is growing up, leaving him behind.
Georgea Gummy You know, vivi doesn't mean anything in latin, vita means life ö3ö
I cried to this twice. it just hits the marks in multiple targets, people know how hard it is to talk to parents and such, how people mess up and try to fix things, and how when you realize things. It is a beautiful song thanks for translating it with your beautiful voice.
The Dwarven Pirate i relate to this so much
The Dwarven Pirate
So relatable :-/
The man who produced this song had severe depression. This song is about him not being able to convey his feelings to his girlfriend and eventually left. In the original music video the main character is a monster which represents the guy himself, he always saw himself as a monster.
PLEASE, PUT THIS SONG ON SPOTIFYYYYY
EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW THIS AMAZING VERSION
I remember being a child and relating to this song... and now a days this meaning even lingers and is more stronger, I also view the song with a more personal interpretation, such as vivi being my happy and youthful innocence and being able to be strong and stick up for my self, because I was always forced as a child to have other make my choices and never could say what I wanted to say without being afraid.... I now am better but developed a pretty bad anxiety and panic attack disorder and learning to finally being able to feel free and choose what I want to do, and live my life..... I'm so glad I had found this song again. I brings back so many things ..... thank you... Things maybe hard but over time things can heal and so can you and you can grow from them..
holy shit, i cant believe it's been 8 years since this got released: this song was like a companion everytime i had a very hard time in my life.
but i never truly thanked you properly for singing out loud my feelings when i couldnt.
thank you so much road :) you have no idea how much this helped me. take care.
"You have to know this, Buddy. I was completely lost before I found you. You made me feel something again... Things no one has ever made me feel. You showed me what love really is. And that's why when I look into your eyes, it's the scariest feeling in the world... It's why I buried myself so deep in the darkness. But, I promise you. I tried so hard to fight it. I tried. And no matter what, I really did love you with all my heart. I'm sorry I failed you, Buddy. I miss you so much. Good bye." - Brad Armstrong
Here's to Lisa the Painful and Lisa the Joyful, two of the greatest RPGs ever made.
"Buzz. Do it. Never let go. What are you waiting for? Let's go play. You're acting different... Who is she? Are you with someone else? You're not going anywhere. You have a job to do! You promised me. You wouldn't hurt me, would you? Not like they did... You want that little bitch? After everything I've done for you? You make me sick! You're hurting me! You can't leave me. Buzzo you have to stay, I need you. You need me! I love you so much. Make him suffer."
"It's okay... You don't have to do this anymore. I'm here to set you free."
"Hey, wake up. Today’s the big day. You get to go outside today. I know a perfect little spot, you’re going to love it."
"Buddy. Yep, Buddy. That was the best I could come up with. Well, it's simple. You're my little buddy. I always called you that when you were a baby. I guess it just stuck. Brad and Buddy. It sounds good to me."
"Stop. Don't call me that. I don't like it. My name is Brad, okay? Call me Brad..."
"What? A boy named Dusty? Who told you that? What did I tell you about asking questions? You idiot. Don't you dare go near your uncles again you hear me? I have no son, never did."
"I guess... You just remind me of her..."
"... I was supposed to be her light. Instead, I let her pull me into the darkness."
"What do you think you’re doing? Who is she? Why…? Why do you love her more than me? Why do you hate me? You’re supposed to take care of me! Why Brad?!"
"I just... For once... I wanted to do something good. I'm the one that was supposed to protect you. I can't let anyone hurt you..."
"Brad... I've been a loser my whole life. Having you around has made me feel strong for once. Like a man... The first day we ever met was the best day of my life.... Even before the world changed. Maybe you don't feel the same way... But you're my best friend dude. It's just this... Brad, this is our future you're messing with... I'm sorry. We can't let you do this."
"Nobody cares about ol' Ollie. Quite frankly I never gave anyone a reason to... My wife... My kids... That's all going to change today."
"We have to protect our futures. And after this our children's futures... It should never be about one man. His people come first. This is the lesson you need to be taught. "
"... Sorry... But you can't do this. She is our future. ...I'm going to miss drinking with you."
"I don't like this... Guys this ain't right. Brad I don't want to hurt you! Stand down! Please..."
"For the first time I'm speechless... Brad my boy... This is history and it's for the best."
Sadly the LISA version seems to have disappeared. I've been looking for it pretty frantically but all I can find of it are some Coubs.
Jeffery Blocker Same here, that Russian version was great, so was the video.
I know right? I would honestly be happy to just have the Russian version. I haven't had luck finding either though.
There are twelve people who don't know what an amazing artist they just listened too.

i heard this song back when i was 12, i kept coming back and back to this song for so long because i loved it so much. i'm almost 20 now. i've found comfort in the beautiful guitar and your gorgeous voice for so long, and will probably continue to do so. this song was there for me at my lowest moments and i hold it very close to my heart. thank you for making such a wonderful cover that wedged itself into my brain and made a home in my heart 💕
*"I love to live"*
I heard this song for the first time 8 years ago and I continuously come back to it. It's forever my favorite. Thank you
Even this guitar version hits me with nostalgia...
No matter which version of this song I hear, I always get nostalgic & depressed....I usually get emotional when I hear songs with piano, but this is one of the very few songs that make me emotional even with non-piano versions. The meaning as well as the chord progression of the song are just...too emotional for me ;_;
It just makes me realize that my life will never get better than what I am now, and just makes me want to hurt myself. Really, I just feel how better life was for me in the olden days...
Nostalgic feels. 😢
I'm simply worthless too...So I listen to this song so I won't cry...This song means everything to me...
Finding your cover of this really cheered me up (even though it's a sad song). I had no idea you'd done this song! The acoustic arrangement sounds really nice and makes it sound so much more...melancholy. ;w;
Also, this song's meaning seems very straightforward for hachi, whose lyrics usually confuse me to no end xD
この歌をこんなに綺麗に歌ってくれてありがとう。
I keep coming back to this video ever since I found it in the summer of 2019, the lyrics are absolutely beautiful, it really describes many aspects in my life, like how I always mess up in my life goals and try to fix things back into place, many times I'm trying to make progress I fail to do a single thing as I want and I feel worthless. Also recently I have developed a form of social anxiety that makes me feel uncomfortable when I'm with other teenagers my age, it's not exactly shyness, but it makes me struggle to talk properly with the proper words, also I'm 17 years old. I've always had difficulties to say what I want and make choices without being afraid, I'm gradually fixing these issues, but now I have developed this social anxiety thing. It's such a sad life that I got :-(
OML I was in a discord with my internet best friend vivi and some other people from a minecraft server we play on and we could request songs from UA-cam so I litearlly opened UA-cam and opened up I love you vivi and this popped up. Your an amazing singer OML why does this not have more veiws!
와.. 제가 들은 비비 커버중 최고인거 같아요.. 진짜 짱입니다ㅠㅠ
Wow.. your cover song vivi is very good and excellent. I like this song. I love your voice!
I cried while listening :c Your voice is so good but the lyricsssssss
If only I could cry as easy as you
Hey. This is annafnef. Been here since 2018 . Not very long but your work, your song, even if it was just a cover, saved my life ❤
8 years later and i’m still listening
god i rediscovered this song recently and had to search for this cover. this cover was my favourite thing years ago and im glad to find it again
I'm back once again, sobbing again
year 2021 almost entering year 2022 in about 3 hours
but this right here- will always be one of my favorite songs you sing
This, this is simply beautiful. When Vivi first came out, I fell so in love with it. I am so in love with the song that I want to name my first daughter Vivi Alice. I was honestly afraid to look up any covers, cause I didn't want it to be ruined for me, but you, you hit the nail on the head. You kept the meaning, and the devotion that Yonezu's original had. You have so much talent.
I remember hearing this song years ago and I decided to give it another listen. It's definitely left me feeling emotional every time I hear it even now. This song has lived rent free in my head for at least 8 years and your voice is gorgeous, thank you for making this cover
This will always be my favorite song
I was obsessed with this video when you girst released it. Over a decade later, im listening to it again as a grown woman and im in tears. Part of my wants to embrace the depressed and suicidal child who related to this.
Thankyou so much for this. The 19 year old I once was needed this ❤
i have no idea how i came about finding this video in 2013 but i was just thinking about it today for some reason
my favorite Road cover
Thank you. I thought I was alone in sharing the opinion in your description. Despite the wordlessness, you described how I feel about it better than I can. This song got me through a lot. Thank you for covering it, and staying strong.
I have been listening to this song since the year 2020 but never (maybe I do? I forgot) commented until today. Just want to say that this song reminds me of a lot of my stupid past that I tried to forget, and the cover was really amazing that is really suitable with the lyrics, thank you for this!
I found this in an animatic btw, have been out from that fandom but the nostalgia always kicks in when listening to this song...
God, this is absolutely beautiful, I love your singing voice! I nearly cried listening to it. I was just looking for an English cover to sing along to (I feel a lot at ease when I sing along to music in the car) and I am so happy that I found this.
I’ve been listening to this for two years, and it’s still one of my favorite songs!! I love your cover and the original version equally. You have such a great voice!
So beautiful and touching, the lyrics and the chords and everything. I'm glad you've made this, and the world is a better place for you having been in it
I'm french so i undersand only few words, but it's really really realllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy lovely and beautiful
Good english
je parle français mais je prefere anglais
Google translate is trash
Better than no translation
This song means the world to me. Thank you so much
i was 7 years old when this was uploaded. when i was like around 12 or 13 i listened to this song for the first time. it held through me in the roughest and worst times in my childhood. being 19 now its like all those memories and feelings i put into this song washes over me that it makes me wanna break down. i still struggle the same heavy mental feelings back when i was younger but even after everything, i still feel at peace listening to this. thank u for this lovely song, now i just use it for my ocs animatics i imagine in my head :)
This song is so touching and beautiful. This song helped me work some things out. Thank you....
This is perfect for relaxing or drawing to, seriously thank you so much for this
My favourite part is that instrumental beginning. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Your voice is gorgeous and perfect and this is a beautiful cover. keep on singing.
Perfect. It's a really good cover. I love your voice.
thanks for making this, I wouldn't be here today without it ପ(๑•ᴗ•๑)ଓ ♡
God!! Your cover is so precious, and this song is so precious, and... I am going to cry :'l
(Sorry for my bad english)
Hey no one ever mentioned this but your English here was flawless.
my heart...
I'll be honest.. i would not have been here today if not for this one particular song. Kept me going through collage and a bit of a rough time afterwards. I still use it as an alarm, even after all this years. It's my escape song. Thank you !
I’m so glad you held on. Much love 💕
well i am gonna love this
Dear lord. I literally discovered this song existed yesterday, and now the girl with one of the most beautiful voices covers it. The only thing that could make life happier would be if a Vivi existed in my life. Q_Q That or a trip to the moon. That'd be pretty cool too.
I actually cried. Full on tears. This is so lovely, absolutely breathtaking.
This cover is... Just beautiful. So hopeless but poetic. I relate to this song sometimes. I know a certain someone for about 5 years and she is very caring towards me. I've also been that way towards her. Except not really. I hate myself. I've become one with negativity long years ago and can't express true care towards someone unless to hurt myself more or out of guilt for feeling like a horrible person. She, like I said, really cares for me but I just don't feel it. I feel her trying her best to show appreciation but then something catches those words and they become nothing to me. It's horrible. This song is exactly how I feel towards her and the world.
Edit: I don't need advice, just needed a place to vent even though this is the internet and it's not the best one.
Also when it played everyone thought it sounded like an emo version of Rapunzel tbh it did but still amazing! Lol
Awesome, I've been obsessed with this song lately
This is beautiful. I loved this song before but you just doubled that.
I believe that a song's beauty is conveyed through simplicity or complexity. So, I will show my appreciation through simple means: I love it.
I think this has been the only song I listened to for the past few days.
I’ve listen to this song multiple times now. But, for some reason, every time I listen to this song I always think of the show codename: kids next door. I’ve tried coming up with a reason why that happens but I have none. By the way the song was really and your cover fits so well with the song
This song always sets off butterflies in my stomach. It sends chills through my body, makes my heart race, but in a strangely good way. I don't know why, but I feel such mystery and emotion coursing through the song that I can't help but react. Thank you, Road. :)
There aren't many songs I really replay over and over, but this is one of the few :D
what a wonderful song.
This is beautiful. I am asking my vocal teacher if I can sing this at the end of year concert. Also, extra points for adding a u into colour, your English viewers are now very happy.
Whenever you feel worthless and that you don't have anything to offer in this world anymore...Just remember there is always a song which will light up your mood. ;-)
This was beautiful! I love this song!
Oh, and u-um thanks for existing and covering this and being awesome and and and o-okaybyenow ///
