Dear Diary
Jessica Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

하루 종일
복잡한 일들이 왜 이렇게 많은 건지
벗어나고 싶어
모두 내려놓고 좀 쉬고 싶은걸

하루가 너무 길어 오늘따라 뭔가 더
허전 하기만한 걸
What Should I Do

Dear Diary I Want To Say
오늘 하루 온종일 정말 다 힘들어
텅 빈 마음을 아무것도 채울 수가
없어서 계속 쓰는 걸
Dear Diary I Want To Tell
맘에 숨겨놓았던 얘기 다 말할게
미처 담지 못한 힘들었던 마음까지
소중히 기억하며 여기 간직해

하루 종일
같은 생각들만 한없이 곱씹어 가며
내 작은 감정에
이렇게 수없이 흔들린다는 게

하루가 너무 길어 오늘따라 뭔가 더
허전 하기만한 걸
What Should I Do

Dear Diary I Want To Say
오늘 하루 온종일 정말 다 힘들어
텅 빈 마음을 아무것도 채울 수가
없어서 계속 쓰는 걸
Dear Diary I Want To Tell
맘에 숨겨놓았던 얘기 다 말할게
미처 담지 못한 힘들었던 마음까지
소중히 기억하며 여기 간직해




간직해
간직해

Overall Meaning

In Jessica's song "Dear Diary," the artist expresses her desire for a release from the daily chaos that surrounds her. She longs for a break from the complexity of her life and shares her struggles to find peace. The lyrics convey a sense of emptiness that she feels within her heart, which she seems to carry with her throughout the day. The artist then imagines writing down her deepest feelings in her diary, sharing the burdens that she carries with this inanimate yet sympathetic companion. The diary becomes a form of therapy, leading her to remember and cherish even the most difficult moments of her life, reminding her that every experience is an opportunity to grow.


The song explores themes of loneliness, the need to have someone to confide in, and the importance of holding on to memories even in tough times. The choice of the diary as the confidant highlights the need for an outlet where one can freely express themselves and the safety of having an object that wouldn't judge, as a sounding board. Jessica's song resonates with the listener's deepest emotions and encourages the importance of self-care.

She's really pretty. I really do appreciate her not giving up on her music. She has a great voice. She inspired me to not give up on my dreams of being a singer. No matter what. Thank you Jessica for being you and being one of my main inspirations of not giving up. You are amazing.
