Lyrics |

[Violet]
Inside a box of my own
Time to empty myself
Not feeling anymore now
In the depths of an abyss
Yesterday's apologetic words to me
Today's me doesn't know you either
Because there are many times (like this)
When you push and shove me
When you push and shove me
Yo now I put a lot of
meanings in (life), like nylon
I stretch and cover the world
becoming a thin covering
Karma's on my neck
You who is gonna stop me
I need courage to wake up from this dream
I'm the right guy for it
Grow up grow up grow up now
We should become a color bar that changes
Burn out
Short (lived) dreams that change
Are the most vivid ones (to live)
And let me tell you why

[Taeyong]
I have been looking for my job lately
Cause I had no dream maybe
There were a lot of chances that made me realize my situation
I don't want to be ignored and disregarded but I act like I do
All of my problem, now that I've moved away from you
The world outside is so different from what I imagined inside
My exhausted mind and soul
Somehow you always tried to drag those days away
I wondered how can you be so strong uh
I was been busy filling up with greed
But I've lost a lot
Being alone was the only way, I could feel a sense of security
I used to put faith in it
Bad habits burn out, the belief that it was a choice
Doesn't that make you weak?
Throw away yesterday's you and me
It made me be the person who I am today
Don't killing my vibe cause this is me

[Doyoung]
Broken heart oh even if it hurts a lot
The story that we can't go back to again
This short dream oh your memories
Today that can't ever be forgotten
If everything is tomorrow then yesterday

[Mark]
Okay back inside my 156 bus
Kinda feel like thinking back
Time passes by so fast
I remember the time When we tossed our lives just like wishing coins
Boy didn't know a lot, I think I'm still the same
I'm still searching for my galaxy, still don't know my screen
Drowning in looks that are getting worse
Getting more spotlight than sunlight everyday
Makes me think about how
Rap is my new 156
For the future traded yesterday
If memories made me
Then we make today
I hope you like it where I'm now

[May]
Broken heart oh even if it hurts a lot
The story that we can't go back to again
This short dream oh your memories
Today that can't ever be forgotten
If everything is tomorrow then yesterday

[Lucas]
Do you think about me too?
Do you always cry?
When it rains
When the pains come in shame
When the fame is a jade and I'm born to be made
But the cost of the fade I've got quickly to shade
Ever quickly to hate burning like a serenade
Burning like my hurricanes
When you said it was wrong
Even if there is a right
Now I can only dream about you holding me tight
Can you hold me tight?

[May]
Broken heart oh even if I try to let you go

[Doyoung]
The story was carved deep inside my heart

[May]
This short dream oh past memories

[Doyoung]
The moments that won't ever be forgotten

[May]
My precious yesterday

[Doyoung]
Tomorrow then yesterday

[May]
Sorry that I walked away

[Doyoung]
Tomorrow then yesterday

[May and Doyoung]
My precious yesterday
