after hesitating for a long time about uploading the full song, finally… on your birthday, I found the courage to let the world hear it (just like you said I should). I hope you like the song—especially the lyrics.

made from the heart, and dedicated to someone dearly loved.

happy birthday, eric of the boyz.
... also, happy birthday, sohn youngjae.

love,
Tay

Lyrics

(#1 verse)
you walk in like you own the light
laughing like the world’s alright
(모든 게 완벽해 보여)
but i see the tired in your eyes
and it’s okay, you don’t have to hide

(pre chorus)
숨기려 애쓰지 마
you don't have to be fine tonight

(chorus)
it’s okay, you know — 그거 알아, 괜찮아
you don’t always have to smile so wide
it’s okay, you know — 울어도 돼 tonight
you’re still the sun, even on the cloudy side
even stars fall outta the sky sometimes

(#2 verse)
you're always loud, you're always bright
but i know you’re fighting quiet fights
(혼자서 버텨낸 밤들)
i’ll be here when you need a place to fall
you don’t have to carry it all

(pre chorus)
혼자가 아니야
even when you feel so far

(chorus)
it’s okay, you know — 그거 알아, 괜찮아
even the ocean gets tired of the tide
it’s okay, you know — 울어도 돼 tonight
you don’t have to wear that brave disguise
i still see you — and you’ll be alright

(bridge)
if you need to break, i’ll break with you
if you need to fall, i'll catch you too
(조용히 네 곁에 있을게)
no more pretending, no more games
it’s okay to just be human today

(last chorus)
it’s okay, you know — 그거 알아, 괜찮아
you don’t have to fix the world tonight
it’s okay, you know — 울어도 돼 tonight
you’re enough just by being alive
그거 알아 — you’ll be just fine

(outro)
you’ll be just fine
you’re already enough
