난 가끔 뜬 눈으로
밤을 지새우곤 해 이렇게
달궈진 커튼 위로
내 하루가 저무네 오늘도

I wish I could be better
오늘도 말해버렸네
바꾸지 못한 것들이 내 맘을 채우네

어제로 덮혀 새까매진
내 마음속엔 내가 없네

날 밝은 밤 이 공기에 취해
내일은 아침에 해가 뜰까
오늘도 난 하루의 시작에 달을보겠지
Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

알람 소리 없는
나의 아침은 고요해 오늘도
퇴근 시간에 맞춰
내 하루가 시작돼 이렇게

다른 삶을 산다는 건 어떤 기분 일까
지금 다시 잠들면 달라질 수 있을까
정상이 나와 반대라면
지금 여긴 대체 어딜까

날 밝은 밤 이 공기에 취해
내일은 아침에 해가 뜰까
오늘도 난 하루의 시작에 달을 보겠지
Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Oh sleep tight until the moonlight

Overall Meaning

The song "Nocturnal" by Shaun describes the singer's struggle to cope with the passing of time and his past mistakes, while also depicting the peaceful loneliness of being awake during the night. The first verse suggests the singer often stays awake at night, unable to let go of the day that just ended. He regrets not being able to change things that haunt him, and feels his heart is empty. The second verse describes the singer's silent and calm mornings after a long night awake. He wonders how it would feel like to live a different life, and questions where he really is in life.

The chorus "Oh sleep tight until the moonlight" repeats three times, providing a peaceful and meditative tone. The phrase implies a sense of letting go and surrendering to some extent, surrendering to the natural cycle of night and day, and also to the unknown future. The struggle and regret described in the previous verses are momentarily paused as the singer embraces the present moment, silencing the confusion and restlessness.

Overall, "Nocturnal" gives the audience a glimpse into the singer's reflective and introspective state of mind, dealing with deep emotions and dilemmas while embracing temporary peace and relieving through the night.

난 가끔 뜬 눈으로
Sometimes I stay up with exhausted eyes

밤을 지새우곤 해 이렇게
Passing the night like this

달궈진 커튼 위로
Above the heated curtains

내 하루가 저무네 오늘도
My day fades away again today

I wish I could be better
I wish I could improve myself

오늘도 말해버렸네
I said it again today

바꾸지 못한 것들이 내 맘을 채우네
The things I couldn't change fill my heart

어제로 덮혀 새까매진
Covered with yesterday's darkness

내 마음속엔 내가 없네
There's nothing left in my heart

알람 소리 없는
Silent morning

나의 아침은 고요해 오늘도
My morning is calm again today
