Before I met her - Us together - After my loss - Recovery from loss.

이 앨범 제목은 이원혁
그러니까 메네시아라는 이름은 지워버려
전부 다 의미 없어
다 버리고 나서야 보이기 시작하네 비로소
내 인생은 하나도 안 괜찮고
이 자괴감은 대체 몇 번 째냐고
바쁘다면서 사람들은 깨 약속
그래 난 또 자존감이 박살나고

Life's a piece of shit when you look at it
평생 이 꼴로 살다 한심하게 죽겠지
어느새 취미생활이 되버린 정신적 자학
그래 나 이렇게 반성하는 도덕적인 자야
Goddamnit I got issues. Emotions, I misuse
Happiness, I miss you. Let this music
please diffuse all the tension that I got
But I don't know, man, I have quite a lot

뱉지 못하면 죽는, 이 몸뚱아린 감정의 숙주

Prologue

Verse 1)
They say "The good die young" and trust me, I know what it means now
난 걱정하지 마 불로장생할 테니까 존나 불사신의 심장
그래 난 개똥밭을 구르는 중
술 먹고 염라대왕 안부 묻는 알코홀릭 음주가
매일 건배하곤 해 죽음과
Man, life moves fast, ain't it?
I'm 22, damnit
난 우울증 때문에 술을 끊을 수 없어
병나발 부는 중
또 음주 후에는 쓴웃음 지으며 슬픔으로 글을 쓴 그래 난 존나 작가
제 살 깎아 조각한 rhyme과 flow
또 망가진 마음과 몸
죽지 못해 산다고는 하지만 절망하지 마
Do what I do, I laugh at my pain
I got migraine in my brain 
Another year and I might break 
이 빌어먹을 하루살이 인생 
행복도 가불하지 이젠
그래 우린 마음까지 빚쟁이
오늘의 고통을 내일의 숙취로 메꿔
여름에 다 같이 만나기로 했던 말 먼저 꺼낸 게 너였잖아
나이도 어린데 왜 나한테 절을 받아
술 약속을 이렇게 파토내고 가면 안 되지
위에서 기다려 난 조금 늦게 갈 테니

Verse 2)
그래 어떻게 또 난 버텨냈고
매 순간 투쟁하는 예술가
탯줄과 끊어짐을 후회했을까
삶이 무엇이기에 이토록 애쓸까
Discuss with Sisyphus if life's happy
Disgust when misjudged cuz he's fooled Hades
우리의 유한함이 슬프더라도
슬픔조차 유한하더라고
Man, life moves fast, ain't it?
I'm 22, damnit
For fuck's sake, I still don't know what the fuck is up, mate
4년 간의 음주생활에서 배운 것은
소주가 숙취 가장 덜하다는 것뿐
그래 이건 내 정신건강에 관한 백만번째 노래
우울증 자괴감 또 불안증세 약간, 그래도 아직 행복해
항우울제는 먹다 안 먹다 해
걱정 마셔 죽을 일은 없다네
내 뇌는 알코올을 도파민으로 바꾸지
시작은 외로움 자기혐오로 마무리되는 밤의 감정 
아무리 노력해도 빠지는 같은 함정
에라 모르겠다 일단 잔 비워라
백년 떠들어도 답이 없다
그래도 어쩌겠어 못 뱉면 죽는 이 몸뚱아리는 감정의 숙주
야 내가 낼게 삼차 가자
아직 할 얘기가 많단 말야

Intro)
How was your day?

Verse 1)
It was the worst
I dont think I can put it in one verse
The pressure of depression
Am i used to the stress? Sure!
But who cares? It's still driving me mad
I feel miserable and my days are unbearably bad
I missed the lectures, I have a complex urge
Maybe I need a brain surgery
I don't know what I want, I don't know what bothers me
I can never have fun anymore, what's wrong with me?
My depression might have been the just the lack of Vitamin D
But how do you then see if it's true? 
There's so much to factor in. 
I may be just another actor pretending I'm fine,
but who knows? I could be out of my mind
In this crazy world, you seem like the only sane thing
So baby girl, my life's a movie and ur the main theme
You're the only reason I'm functioning lately
Cuz I'm lonely and think everyone just hates me

Hook)
How was your day?
I hope it went okay
So how was your day, baby?

Verse 2)
It was the best!
Presentation was a success
I think I did well on the test 
Can't hope for better, I guess
And then I tried out this food truck for lunch
Well, I honestly wasn't expecting so much
But its fish and chips took me by surprise; not as bad as they say
It truly is unwise to only do things the old way
I've got nothing to do this afternoon
I'm sipping earl grey, with some crackers, too
My insecurities cannot get to me today
They can never pass these beats by Dr. Dre
This music is diffusing the tension
Serenity has my undivided attention
I'm having the time of my life
and it's not because the day's perfect
It's because you are by my side
If I had to die for you, it'd still be worth it

Bridge)
You know I'll be besides you
You know I'm always right by you
You know I'll never give you up
So bae, how was your day

Hook)
How was your day?
I hope it went okay
So how was your day, baby?

Dialogue (How was your day?) (Feat. Wendy Min Ji Choi)

To the loving memory of Ahyoung Cho

Verse 1)
너와의 인연은 날 훨씬 더 나은 사람으로 만들어 줬어
후줄근하던 내가 외출할 때마다 이제는 네 향수에 젖어
함께 나눈 일상의 조각들 이젠 내 삶을 찔러오는 아픔
그 많은 즐거운 순간들 전부 나는 이제 슬픔으로 가득
기념할 건 사라지며 기려야 할 것이며 기념일이 아닌 기일을 챙기며
살아가야 하는 내 세월이 야속해 그래도 할 수 없네 이게 내 시련
서로의 이름을 따 영원을 약속하던 우리였는데 이제 넌 영이 되고 
난 여기에 혼자 남겨져서 쓰디쓴 원한이 돼버렸어
헤어지면 원래 서로 남이라지만 여기 남은 건 나 하나 너는 아니야
그래서 이건 여기서 홀로 상대를 잃은 채 읊조리는 monologue

Verse 2)
In this problem of life and death, there is no way you can be right: you left
I'm trying to look at the bright side of death, but maybe you had been right: I'm left
Socrates: you took your poison with an apology And I'm Plato, writing how you're a saint and savior
Together we were greater than all of you and all of me combined, so how could I now be just fine?
My favourite leapling now forever sleeping and there's no doubt you're a beauty 
But now I'm weeping call me a weakling but how could you just leave me? It's cruelty
I'll keep trying to imagine Sisyphus happy I only have half a life how hard can that be?
I truly loved her so this is my obituary: it's my monologue
