The lyrics express the opposing feelings of wanting to be alone and wanting someone to notice you and hold you. KAI said: “During the recording of it, my emotions were very similar to ‘Blue’ so it became difficult.”
[Verse 1]
I don't even know what I want now
Am I lonely or do I just want to be lonely?
I see my absent-minded reflection in the mirror
The 'me' I knew is stopped here
Little by little, everything is becoming cloudy
Yeah, I'm lonely
Yeah, I'm lonely
(Yeah)
[Chorus]
I've never wanted anyone to know
I can't explain my feelings like this
Without saying a word, hold on me
Words like these are hard to me
(I'm like this ev-)
I want to sink like small dust
I want to stop in time for a moment
Exhaling sighs is hard enough
This darker silence is bad enough
[Post-Chorus]
I'm like this every day
I get tired again every day, every day
[Verse 2]
Perhaps I'm a little bit tired right now
Even the greetings that used to be friendly have become a burden
And, uh, time goes by again
This feeling is holding me down
[Pre-Chorus]
I've never wanted anyone to know
I can't explain my feelings like this
Without saying a word, hold on me
Words like these are hard to me
(I'm like this ev-)
I want to sink like small dust
I want to stop in time for a moment
Exhaling sighs is hard enough
This darker silence is bad enough
[Post-Chorus]
I'm like this every day
I get tired again every day, every day
[Bridge]
I know everything will pass someday
I think it will be a little bit better tomorrow
Talking to myself is never enough for me
I can't sleep, I comfort myself
[Outro]
Every day (You know)
Hold me every day (Yeah-eah, yeah)
Hold on to me every day (You know)
Hug me every day, every day (Yeah)
Every day (I don't even know who I am anymore)
Hold me every day (No, oh-oh)
Hold on to me every day (Woah-oh)
Hug me every day, every day (Oh, hold me, hug me, yeah)
