- 저 달 (moonlight)
- a peter pan who still can’t wake up from his dream / in my head, the reality fights with the ideal tirelessly / my biggest enemy is the anger inside me / the more dreadful is the battle with the laziness inside me / sometimes i resent god, asking why he made me live a life like this
- there would be no eternity for anything / being called immortal is fucking overwhelming / i started just because i liked music, / but the adjectives they attach to my name feel too much sometimes
- 이상하지 않은가 (strange)
- polarization, the ugliest flower in the world / it’s been a long while since truth got eaten away by lies / who would it be that benefits the most? / who would it be that gets harmed the most? / the one who isn’t sick in the world that is sick / gets treated as a mutant, isn’t it strange / the one who has his eyes open in the world that has its eyes closed — / now they make him blind, isn’t it strange
- 점점 어른이 되나 봐 (28)
- i grow older / and become to know the world / and yet, would it have been better to not know the world?
- perhaps, i’m gradually becoming an adult / i can’t remember / what are the things that i hoped for / now i’m scared / where did the fragments of my dream go?
- though i’m breathing, it feels like my heart has broken down / yeah, to talk about now, it’s about becoming an adult who finds it only overwhelming to grasp onto a dream, / i’m becoming an adult
- burn it
- you of the past, you of the present / whoever it is, bastard, light the fire / whether it would become a blazing sun / or the ashes left behind after being burnt — / always, the choice and decision is yours to make / i hope you don’t forget that giving up decisively also counts as courage
- 사람 (people)
- who said that humans are the animals of wisdom / to my eyes, it’s obvious that they are the animals of regret
- your being ordinary is rather my being special / your being special is rather my being ordinary
- what about it / if you brush past, what about it / what about it / if you get hurt, what about it / sometimes you might be in pain again / Sometimes you might get upset and shed tears / what about it / if you live like that, what about it
- 혼술 (honsool)
- since it’s getting to my head, let’s be honest about my life / oh yeah, money, fame, wealth, / trophies and stadiums — / sometimes i’d get scared of them / and would want to run away, mm / i thought i’d party every day when i become a superstar / but the ideal is slapping the reality in the back of its head / well, it doesn’t matter anyway / tomorrow will come and go again / i, who’s like this, and you, who’s like that, / we just endure through the day, i guess
- interlude: set me free
- set me free, knowing that it won’t go the way i want / set me free, knowing that it’s not what i want
- 어땠을까 (dear my friend)
- still, as ever, / i miss you, and i miss you / still, as ever, / the memories of us together circle around me / maybe, if i had held you back then, / no, if i had stopped you back then, / still, as ever, / would we have remained as friends? what would it have been like?
- would it be that you’ve changed, or i’ve changed, uh / i hate even the time that is passing right now, i guess it’s us that have changed / hey, i hate you, hey, i hate you / hey, even at this moment as i say this, i miss you
- there was no way to bring you, who was my only friend, back, and you became a monster / there’s no you that i used to know, there’s no me who used to know you / i know that it’s not just because of the time that we’ve changed

- agust d
- i’m sorry, i mean it, i’m sorry / i’m sorry that i’m the one who took away your job, boy / i’m sorry, avoid getting angry / your health is all you have and your mom will be sad if you lose it
- give it to me
- though i don’t know the recipe of success yet, i feel like i know the recipe of failure well / the recipe is to fool around and to run your mouth, just like how you do
- 140503 새벽에 (140503 at dawn)
- pretending that i’m not lonely, pretending that I’m not suffering, / needlessly pretending that i’m okay, and pretending hard that I’m strong, / i built a wall in front of me, “Don’t come inside” / ’m an island in this wide ocean, “Don’t abandon me”
- 마지막 (the last)
- on my first visit to a psychiatrist, my parents came to seoul and had a consultation with me / my parents said they didn’t know me well / i don’t know myself well either. then who would know? (who knows?) / friend? if not, you? nobody knows me well
- so far away
- dream, hope it to be there with you at your creation and at the end of your life / dream, will be generous to you wherever you stand / dream, will eventually be in full bloom at the end of hardships / dream, the beginnings will seem humble, so prosperous will the future be
- yeah, i fucking live only because i can’t die / that i don’t have anything i want to do / is painful than anything and makes me lonely / but everyone around me tells me to come to my senses / the only one that i can vent my anger on is myself, so why should i even take it out / every morning, i’m scared to open my eyes and breathe
