Lyrics
Intro
Ambient synth motif: C–G–A–F, analog pad, lowpass filter, stereo ping-pong delay, slow attack
Verse 1
Male vocal: soft, breathy chest voice
아무리 — 우겨봐도, 어쩔 수 없네
저기 — 개똥 무덤이, 내 집인걸
가슴을 — 내밀어도, 친구가 없네
노래하던 새들도 — 멀리, 날아가네
Pre-Chorus
Whispered duet harmony L/R split
가지 마라 — 가지 마라, 가지 말아라
나를 위해 — 한 번만, 노래해주렴
Chorus A – Hook Section
Hook motif returns under chorus; female harmonies soft and airy
나나 — 나나나나—
쓰라린, 가슴 안고
오늘 밤도 — 그렇게
울다 — 잠이 든다
Verse 2
Male vocal remains restrained, slight crack on endings
마음을 — 다 주어도, 친구가 없네
사랑하고 싶지만 — 마음뿐인걸
나는 — 개똥벌레, 어쩔 수 없네
손을 — 잡고 싶지만, 모두 떠나가네
Pre-Chorus
가지 마라 — 가지 마라, 가지 말아라
나를 위해 — 한 번만, 손을 잡아주렴
Chorus B – Final Climax
Motif and strings swell; vocal remains delicate
아아 — 외로운 밤
쓰라린, 가슴 안고
오늘 밤도 — 그렇게
울다 — 잠이 든다
울다... 잠이 든다
