東京テディベア (Tokyo Teddy Bear)

==Background==
"Tokyo Teddy Bear" is an original song by Neru and one of his most notable songs. It was uploaded to YouTube on December 16, 2017. The boy in the video is named Teddy.
The song is rather vague, and so several interpretations can be made. A possible meaning for the song is that he runs away from home and his family, thinking that he has a 'crazy filled mind'. He appears to hate his life and wants to change. In the song, he struggles with why he needs to change, seen in the lyrics; "Make a fool of yourself." Either these are his parents words to him, or these are his own thoughts. He appears to fear that changing can only make him a mere fool.
In other lyrics, he asks why he can't just be loved; possibly by his family; and expresses wishes to cut his face off with scissors. This appears to indicate he has a history of, or is contemplating, harming himself, whether by literally cutting himself or by inflicting mental pain.
The teddy bear could also represent him. The stuffed toy is nearly torn apart and is a mess of stitches and patches, much like he imagines himself to be on the inside. The teddy bear's physical state symbolizes his internal suffering. Seeing himself, like the bear, as being destined to be constantly torn apart and patched up again, he expresses a desire to be "patched" up and be fixed. At some parts, he hints of pulling the last string that keeps the teddy bear together, possibly symbolizing his death. The ending of the song; whether he returns home, finds help, runs away, commits suicide, etc.; is left to the viewer's imagination.
To celebrate Kagamine Append's first anniversary, Tokyo Teddy Bear's single was released by KARENT.
This song has entered the Hall of Legend and exceeded over 10 million YouTube views. Hence, this is one of Neru's most notable songs, and one of Rin's most notable songs.

|-|Approved English Lyrics=
Mom, Dad, I'm sorry for everything
My knees are shaking and I'm sucking my thumb
Brother, Sister, I'll see you later
I stomp down the heels of my unfashionable shoes
I'll make a ridiculously-sized pattern for it
Anything will do, as long as it serves as a replacement
The words "I want to be loved" tumbled from my mouth
I'll find some tougher scissors
To cut out the face
C'mon, let me hear some words of wisdom
Tell me I don't need anything but my brain;
Why not? I don't know
Near-future creation; tomorrow's wounds; just shake it
Please fill in the gaps in my seams
Goodbye, everyone; teacher, take care
Drool drips onto my pounding chest
What does honesty get you? Honesty doesn't pay!
What does honesty get you? Honesty doesn't pay!
Ahh, this isn't going to get the job done
I need a bigger sewing machine to pierce through the heart
C'mon, let me hear some words of wisdom
Tell me I don't need anything but my brain;
Why not? I don't know
Near-future creation; tomorrow's wounds; just shake it
Please fill in the gaps in my seams
There's nothing left, nothing left anymore: It's all torn off
Even my cells disappear into this sea of lint
That's right, I'm gone, gone, thrown away
I don't even have a home to go back to
Proof of my existence. Ahh, shut up. My body's made of lies
I want to complete it, I want to cheat, give me the answer
I can't change? Do I want to be kept like a pet?
Is it all gone? This isn't me!
The seams have split and torn apart
I cut out my life's spark in these boiling days
Anyone will do, as long as they serve as a replacement
