translator's notes: the lyrics are pretty deep and the translation (i'm sorry to say) does not do it justice. in the beginning of the live performance, he says that he wrote this song during a time when he thought "should i stop living?"; he decided that he still wanted to try living in the end and wrote this song. maybe this will give you insight into the lyrics. :)

검은 밤의 가운데 서있어
during the middle of the dark night i'm just standing.
한치 앞도 보이질 않아
i can't even see in front of me
어디로 가야 하나 어디에 있을까
to where i should go, where would it be
둘러 봐도 소용없었지
even if i look around me, it's no use.
인생이란 강물 위를 끝없이
in the river waters that is life, endlessly
부초처럼 떠다니다가
as i float around like the floating plants (another translation is "mulch"; basically the plant matter floating on the water surface)
어느 고요한 호수가에 닿으면
and when i touch some peaceful lake shore
물과 함께 썩어가겠지
i will probably rot with the water.

일어나 일어나
stand up, stand up
다시 한번 해보는 거야
we're going to try again once more
일어나 일어나
stand up, stand up
봄의 새싹들처럼
like spring's new sprouts

끝이 없는 말들 속에
between the endless words
나와 너는 지쳐가고
me and you are getting weary
또 다른 행동으로 또 다른 말들로
with another kind of action, with another kind of word
스스로를 안심시키지
we console ourselves
인정함이 많을수록 새로움은
the more acknowledgement, the novelty
점점 더 멀어지고
gets further and further away
그저 왔다갔다 시계추와 같이
just going back and forth like a pendulum

매일 매일 흔들리겠지
it will probably falter (this verb can also mean "shake") every day

일어나 일어나
stand up, stand up
다시 한번 해보는 거야
we're going to try once more
일어나 일어나
stand up, stand up
봄의 새싹들처럼
like spring's new sprouts

가볍게 산다는 건 결국은
living life lightly is eventually
스스로를 얽어매고
binding yourself up
세상이 외면해도 나는 어차피
even if the world ignores me, i will have to
살아 살아 있는 걸
live, be living
아름다운 꽃일수록 빨리 시들어 가고
as beautiful as the flower is, it wilts all the more faster
햇살이 비치면 투명하던 이슬도
even the d
