"Nosedive/기다렸다 가" This song speaks to me..so much

Nosedive / 기다렸다 가

By: Dynamic Duo(다이나믹 듀오), CHEN(첸)



So, I was listening to random songs when I came across this. Personally, I'm not a huge huge fan of Dynamic Duo even if I did listen to some of their songs and liked them. But, after seeing this song... I'm not sure. Wait I am sure. I love their songs and will probably become a huge fan within the few weeks ahead. I'm glad I came across this song.. This song speaked to me so much. Except for the drinking, smoking and being a 40 years old person part, of course. Well, I don't really know how to explain but it felt like it was describing what I'm feeling like these days and also what I think I would be hearing soon. (Hearing soon as in hearing Chen's part from some certain people) I love this song. Not only their voices got me like woah but also their lyrics. Seriously, I think this is my new favourite.  The english lyrics does appear in the video but I'll leave the lyrics here too. Enjoy.

Must have been a tough day
Just a couple of drinks is getting to me
After letting out a long sigh in the empty space
I’m feeling a bit better

These days, life is like spring and fall
Good days go by so quick
Some people turn me into someone who isn’t me
They put me up and down fooling around
Then they leave me just like that

Maybe I got stronger
Maybe I got indifferent
I used to cry only once or twice a year
But now tears are coming
On this hidden path
 crying at the hopelessness of it all

When my heart heard that song
It melted a little
The reason is all stress
I don’t wanna break down
I endured it all cause I didn't want to collapse
I held on cause I didn't want to evaporate

When things are hard
You can just cry
Cry all you want it's okay
When sadness leaves
When the tears are about to stop
With my thumb
I’ll brush across
The bottom of your eye

I say it's sad I know and that it's just too bad
I open a new bottle of soju
You said you just learned at the age of forty

The cloud of smoke the awkward cigarette in your hands make
Feels like it's hugging us
Coughs and laughs held inside
Explodes out for a moment

We don't feel alone for a while
And call each other friends
Sometimes, the misfortune called depression
Blocks me with a net called laziness

Everyone is going on their own path forward
But only I’m stopped in place
"Will I be okay like this?"
That question doesn’t leave my head

When I just follow the motions of life
Sometimes, I feel like a ghost
Loneliness is like a grave
But you always pull me out of it
You’re like the chorus/verse of this song

When things are hard
You can just cry
Cry all you want it's okay
When sadness leaves
When the tears are about to stop
With my thumb
I’ll brush across
The bottom of your eye

I don’t wanna be alone
Again today, I’m holding onto someone 
And won't let go
But the way back home
Is lonely, of course
So I turn on the TV
And wait for sleep to come

For a long time, I wanna be with those
Who don’t give me a score
Among all the countless ratings
So I can go through the door of a lonely day
So I can live completely as myself

Sometimes, everything feels so meaningless
I wonder why I'm living
Or where am I going
I put on a mask
I’m using a fake name that I’m used to now
I wonder if it’s really me though

When I can’t grasp my direction
And I keep wandering
The fact that someone is with me is priceless
The world is only an exterior shell that’s like a lie
But we don’t simply judge each other like it’s a game

Have strength, close your eyes for a bit
How hard must it have been?
Just until the wind and rain pass
Wait a moment, then go

When things are hard
You can just cry
Cry all you want it's okay
When sadness leaves
When the tears are about to stop
With my thumb
I’ll brush across
The bottom of your eye
