The songwriters draft a powerful metaphor, describing the singer as ‘a monster’. Daily:Direction sings about flipping the world upside down and swallowing it whole. Every line shows a sharp heart ready for any challenge.

Eojetbamui naneun ijeojwo sarajigesseo eodum sogeuro seonmyeonghaejin donggongForget who I was last night, I’m going to disappear into the darkness as my eyes sharpen.
Ijeseoya boineun geoseun glow-low-lowOnly now can I see that low, steady glow.
Starring my own moonlightI’m the star of my own moonlight,
Geu bicheul hyanghae I’ll go wildand I’ll chase that light with everything I’ve got.
Modeunge da muneojyeodoEven if everything falls apart,
I’ll throw myself into the unknownI’ll throw myself into the unknown.
Gatyeoitdeon tto dareun nalThe other side of me that was trapped,
Ijen boyeojullae, wooI’m going to show it to the world now.
Like a monsterI’m like a monster.
Moonlight, shine on me when I look at the skyMoonlight, shine on me when I look at the sky.
Nawaneun meon yaegi I’m a child of tragedyHappiness felt so far away, since I was a child of tragedy.

Bakkui sikkeureoun fireworksThe noisy fireworks outside,
Don’t mind, yeah, yeah (Don’t mind, yeah, yeah)don’t pay them any mind. No, don’t worry about them.
Byeolbit soge sumeul breathe nan naagal teniI’ll take a breath under the starlight as I move forward,
