Lyrics and translation P1Harmony - Before The Dawn

Before The Dawn

발자국만 남은 꿈 따위
익숙해 날 계속 밟아
그들은 말해 누구라도 이룰 수 있대
거짓말뿐인 세상

정말 네가 손을 뻗니?
언제부턴가 나와 꿈을 떼어놓는 낯선 그 손길
어른들이 손에 쥐여줬던
풍선 같은 꿈들을 터뜨린

저들의 뾰족한 손가락질
결국 가리킨 방향은 저들과 똑같은 길
의욕 따윈 나에게는 욕심, 내 불꽃은 눈밭에서 핀
피하지 못할 destiny

항상 해가 뜨던 자리에는 달만
창밖을 가리던 커튼은 그 자리에
걷히지도 않은 채 눈을 가린다
빛이 없어졌는지조차 모르지 내 세상엔 없던 것이기에

또 남을 시기해 질투해
새벽에 머물러 있는 나는, 빛을 볼 생각이 없네
가장 추악한 아름다움에 끝내
빠져나오지도 못할 늪에 다시 빠져드네

You know darkness is the deepest before the dawn, before the dawn
여기서 난 절대 멈추지 않아 (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like falling off the deep end, off the deep end
다 이길 수 있으니까, 더 잘할 수 있으니까
I can see the sun is rising

진흙 속에서 피어나는 flower
진흙 속이라 더 아름답게 보이는 것
그것뿐 다, 거품 같은 말들뿐 지금껏
그 거품들에 의지한 채 숨 쉬어 왔던

내게 말해, 제발, 꼭 피워 내라고
새벽 달빛에 몸 의지해서라도
달빛을 불씨 삼아서, burn like the sun
나의 밤을 태우기 위한 like trigger on a gun

해 본 적 없더라도 손에 꼭 쥔 채
눈을 잠시 감았다가 떠
항상 마주 보던 그늘은 말고 빛을 보고 싶어
저 밖으로 나갈 거야, 이제부터 더 굳게 먹어 마음도, yeah

어둠 속 몸부림을 소리쳐 남은 불씨에 진심을 후 불어 내
타올라 불꽃처럼 나를 괴롭혔던 슬픔은 변해 잿빛으로
가장 밝은 빛을 보기 위해서는
가장 깊은 어둠을 바라봐야 한다는 걸 이제는 알아

You know darkness is the deepest before the dawn, before the dawn
여기서 난 절대 멈추지 않아 (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like falling off the deep end, off the deep end
다 이길 수 있으니까, 더 잘할 수 있으니까
I can feel the sun is rising

해가 뜰 거란 걸 이젠 잘 알아
아침은 당연한 때니까 말이야
Yeah, no dark, no light, yeah, no dark, no light
믿음의 문제가 아냐 이건

The sun is rising now, 두려울수록 간절
간절할수록 태양은 커져 나에게로 와
새벽은 날 가꿀 시간
햇빛을 담아낼 마음의 그릇, 준비가 다 됐어 이젠

눈 떠 봐, 내가 본 어둠도
오늘에겐 그저 어제일 뿐이고
웃어 봐, 더 크게 활짝 나를 봐
더 이상 두렵지 않다는 걸 티 내듯이 라라

누군가는 갇혀 있어
이젠 내 차례야, 손을 멀리 뻗고
힘들어? 걱정 마, 붙잡을게
혼잣말하지 말고 손잡아, 어둠은 지나친다

너도 알지 어차피 태양은 밝지
맞이할 빛은 피하지 못할 dеstiny

I don't wanna give up, never, on thе ground, on the ground
누구도 날 쉽게 말할 수 없어 (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like I'm left in the darkness, in the darkness
난 약하지 않으니까, 난 강해져 갈 테니까
I can see the sun is rising

Before The Dawn

All that remains of my dreams are footprints
So familiar that I keep stepping on them
They tell me anyone's capable of making it
What a lie

Will you really reach out to me?
When did someone's else's hands become all that separates me and my dreams?
The dreams the adults handed me
Popped like balloons

Their sharp fingers pointed
In the end, the direction they pointed toward was the same path they took
Passion was nothing but greed to them, my spark blossomed in the snow
An unavoidable destiny

Where the sun used to rise, now there's only the moon
The curtains that used to cover my window are still there
Blocking my view, they still won't go away
I don't even realize the light's disappeared, since it never existed in my world anyway

Once again, I envy and resent you
I, who stays in the gray dawn, have no plans to see the light
Caught in the clutches of the most beautiful ugliness
I fall back into the mire from which I can't escape

You know darkness is the deepest before the dawn, before the dawn
I'll never stop here (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like falling off the deep end, off the deep end
Because I can win, I can do better, I can
I can see the sun is rising

A flower blooming in the mud
Appearing all the more beautiful because of the mud
That's all, just empty words, up until now
I've been relying on those empty words to breathe

Tell me, please, make me bloom
Even if I must rely on the moonlight
Using the moonlight as kindling, burn like the sun
Like the trigger on a gun, to burn away my night

Though I've never seen it, I hold it tight in my hands
I close my eyes for a moment, then open them
I'm tired of looking at the shadows we always face, I want to see the light
I'm going to go outside, and now I'll steel my heart and mind, yeah

I'll scream in the darkness and rekindle the smoldering embers
My sorrow, once a burning flame that tormented me, now turns to ash
To see the brightest light
I must face the deepest darkness

You know darkness is the deepest before the dawn, before the dawn
I'll never stop here (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like falling off the deep end, off the deep end
Because I can win, I can do better
I can feel the sun is rising

I know that the sun will rise
Because dawn is a given
Yeah, no dark, no light, yeah, no dark, no light
This isn't about belief

The sun is rising now, the more fearful I get, the more earnest
The more earnest I get, the larger the sun grows and comes to me
Dawn is a time for me to endure
The vessel of my heart will hold the sunlight, I'm ready now

Open your eyes, the darkness I've seen
Is nothing more than yesterday to today
Smile, look at me more, laugh widely
As if to show that you're no longer afraid

Some are trapped
Now it's my turn, I'll reach far ahead
Is it hard? Don't worry, I'll hold on
Stop mumbling and grab my hand, the darkness will pass

You know the sun will shine anyway
The light we'll face is an inevitable destiny

I don't wanna give up, never, on the ground, on the ground
No one can break me so easily (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Even though it feels like I'm left in the darkness, in the darkness
I'm not weak, I'll keep getting stronger
I can see the sun is rising
