I dunno if repetitive is the word...i mean, most artists have themes they focus on in the lyrics they write. So i don't think they're repetitive as much as just maybe expected form Ayu. Her styles is definitely evident in every line of the song, but it's not boring to me yet. I like these lyrics. I mean, half the artists out now have at least a dozen songs with "i love you" as the theme and refrain for the song. She's still doin her thing.

Winter Whispers

For all the words unspoken
I keep to myself because I’m selfish
I don’t speak to you because I think you’re selfish
Can’t there be an easier way?

My mind trespasses a vacant heart
But it soon learns of the orphan of secrets
Held inside
Why can’t I just foster my emotions
Like you had
Like all of you had?

In the stormy season
We often admire the rain
Why is it so admirable?
What’s so blissful about crying skies?
Nothing’s blissful about running mascaras
And gasping orbs of emotion
Smeared liner of depression
Drenched cheeks with forged smiles

The colder it is
The warmer we truly feel, right?
So can’t you just accept the secrets
And put away the selfish mindset
Because I can’t do the same thing.

-Yume (ME!! i wrote it!! lalala...)
