나만 이렇게 힘들까

na-man i-reot-ge him-deul-kka

어떻게 견뎌야 할까

eo-tteot-ge gyeon-dyeo-ya hal-kka

마음껏 소리쳐 울면 나아질까

ma-eum-kkeos so-ri-chyeo ul-myeon na-a-jil-kka

Yeah we live a life

낮과 밤을 반복하면서

그저 잠에 들기만을 기다리며 살아 (살아, 살아)

geu-jeo jam-e deul-gi-man-eul gi-da-ri-myeo sal-a (sal-a, sal-a)

Yeah we live a life

어둠 속에서 눈을 뜬 채로

This meaningless life

편히 쉬고 싶어도

pyeon-hi swi-go sip-eo-do
