Lyrics
I have sought the courage for so long
I have been searching for courage for a long time.
In the eyes of others
Seeking courage through the perceptions of others.
But think if I had stayed in the darkness forever
Contemplating the consequences of staying in darkness indefinitely.
And I have seen people destroy themselves looking for the sun
Observing people self-destruct in their pursuit of happiness (symbolized by the sun).
As if it were the only source of happiness
Highlighting the misconception that the sun is the sole source of happiness.
But believe me, it's not
Asserting that true happiness is not solely linked to external factors like the sun.
Would u have taken me with you?
Questioning if the listener would have accepted the speaker despite being in the shadows.
Even though I'm the shadow
Acknowledging the speaker's role as a shadow, possibly indicating a sense of insignificance.
You've heard me talk a lot about loneliness
Referencing previous discussions about loneliness.
And you always told me you're not
Contrasting the listener's reassurance with the speaker's feelings of loneliness.
But babe maybe, one day

I hope that you'll understand

Babe, it's just you

Oh babe, it's just you
Continuing to emphasize the listener's significance in the speaker's life.
I wish I could tell you how
Expressing a desire to communicate how to stay calm in challenging situations.
To stay calm in front of a storm
Advising to remain composed in the face of adversity.
Breathe out and close your eyes
Suggesting a method to cope with difficulties by exhaling and closing one's eyes.
Because no one will touch you
Assuring that no harm will come to the listener.
People are afraid to be alone
Observing society's fear of solitude but praising the beauty of self-reliance.
But it's so nice to rely on yourself
Highlighting the positive aspect of depending on oneself.
But babe maybe one day

Oh I just want to let you into my little big world

But tonight you are
