the quiet between us

There’s a quiet
That lives in my chest
말하지 못한 마음이
여기 남아 있어
(A heart I couldn’t speak still stays here)

⸻

[Verse 1 – Sora]

I’ve mastered the art of “I’m fine”
웃으면서 숨을 참아
(Smiling while I hold my breath)
Like a prayer I don’t believe
괜찮은 척, 또 괜찮은 척
(Pretending again and again I’m okay)

How some nights feel endless
끝이 없는 어둠처럼
(Like a darkness with no end)
Not drowning loud in water
조용히 사라져 가
(I just quietly fade away)

⸻

[Verse 1 – Nyra]

My mind builds rooms with no windows
닫힌 문 안에 나를 가둬
(Locks me inside closed doors)
Replays every mistake I made
실수들만 크게 울려
(Only my mistakes echo loudly)

And the worst part isn’t breaking
무너지는 게 아니라
(It’s not the breaking itself)
It’s the shame of breaking down
무너진 나를 미워해
(It’s hating myself for breaking)

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Jaeon]

But what if strength is staying
떠나고 싶어도 남는 거라면
(What if strength is staying even when you want to leave?)
What if courage is admitting
나 오늘은 힘들다고
(Saying “today is hard for me”)

[Pre-Chorus – Lian]

Not in this pain, not in this spiral
이 밤이 너무 길어도
(Even if this night feels too long)
But I’m still breathing through it
나는 아직 여기 있어
(I am still here)

⸻

🌊 [Chorus – All]

In the quiet between us
말없이 흐르는 눈물 속에서
(In the silent tears that fall)
Where the smile meets the breaking
웃음 뒤에 숨은 나를
(The me hidden behind the smile)

If you’re barely holding on
조금만 더 버텨줘
(Endure just a little longer)
Then hold on to my hand
내 손을 잡아줘
(Hold my hand)

We don’t have to be unshaken
완벽하지 않아도 돼
(We don’t have to be perfect)
We just have to stand
그냥 여기 서 있으면 돼
(Just standing here is enough)

In the quiet
이 고요함 속에서
(In this stillness)
We are still here
우린 아직 여기 있어

⸻

[Verse 2 – Nyra]

Some mornings feel like gravity
아침이 너무 무거워
(Mornings feel too heavy)
Like getting up is climbing
한 걸음도 버거워
(Every step feels overwhelming)

But I count the smallest victories
숨 한 번, 또 한 번
(One breath, then another)
And maybe healing isn’t loud
치유는 조용할지도 몰라
(Maybe healing is quiet)

⸻

[Verse 2 – Jaeon]

They say “time heals everything”
시간이 다 괜찮게 한대
(They say time fixes it all)
But time still leaves the scar
상처는 남아 있어
(The scars still remain)

You don’t owe the world perfection
세상에 증명할 필요 없어
(You don’t need to prove yourself)
You just owe yourself to breathe
그저 숨 쉬면 돼
(Just breathe)

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Sora]

If I shake while telling you
오늘은 괜찮지 않다고
(Saying I’m not okay today)
Promise you won’t turn away
날 외면하지 말아줘
(Please don’t turn away)

[Pre-Chorus – Lian]

Because even stars look fragile
별도 흔들릴 때가 있어
(Even stars tremble sometimes)
But they’re still burning quietly
그래도 빛나고 있어
(Still, they are shining)

⸻

🌊 [Chorus – All (Full, cinematic)]

In the quiet between us
이 고요한 틈 사이
(In this quiet space between us)
Where the ache feels too familiar
익숙한 이 아픔 속에
(Inside this familiar pain)

If you’re barely holding on
조금만 더 버텨줘
(Just hold on a little longer)
Then hold on to my hand
내 손을 놓지 마
(Don’t let go of my hand)

We don’t have to be unbroken
부서져도 괜찮아
(It’s okay even if we’re broken)
We just have to stand
그냥 여기 서 있으면 돼
