X-Ceed Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

오늘따라 잠긴 목소리
감길 듯 말듯 한 눈빛이
어설프게 지어버린 표정까지
오직 너를 담고 있었지
여전히 빈 공간이 남았지
기억들이 눈처럼 쌓여만 가네
그 곳은 얼마나 소중한지
그 밤은 왜 잊어 버릴 수가 없는지

낯설은 기분에 들뜬 마음이
그 서툴렀던 말을 꺼내
그럼 나는 폰을 켜고
너를 채워 놓은
작고 까만 우주 속을
거닐다 잠이 들래
빛처럼 날 깨워줘
어제와 똑같은 노래로 yeah

항상 너는 웃고 있었네
어떤게 너를 웃게 했는지
기억들이 별빛만큼 쏟아지네
우린 얼마나 특별했는지
무엇 하나 지워 버릴 수가 없는지
사소한 얘기에 뻔한 농담이
가득한 메모를 꺼내
나는 다시 폰을 켜고
너를 채워 놓은
작고 까만 우주 속을
거닐다 잠이 들래
빛처럼 날 깨워줘
어제와 똑같은 노래로

그 순간은 얼마나 신비로웠는지
돌아가지 않아도
나는 다시 눈을 감고
너로 가득 채울
작고 까만 우주 속을
걷다 잠이 들래
빛처럼 날 깨워줘
언제나 똑같은 노래로
똑같은 표정으로

너를 담은 향기로
똑같은 목소리로

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of X-Ceed's song "Galaxy" convey a sense of longing and nostalgia for a past relationship. The opening lines describe a locked voice and uncertain gaze, emphasizing the mixed emotions and subdued facial expression that were solely dedicated to the person being addressed. The lyrics suggest that even though some empty space remains, memories continue to accumulate like snowflakes, indicating their significance and the inability to forget a particular night. The singer reflects on the unfamiliar feelings and excited heart that led to awkward words being spoken. In response, they turn on their phone and wander through the small, dark universe that they filled with the presence of their loved one, hoping to fall asleep while being awakened like light.

The song then shifts to portraying the constant happiness that resided within the significant other. The lyrics ponder about what it took to make the person smile, as memories pour down like starlight, emphasizing the special and unforgettable nature of their relationship. The singer realizes that there isn't a single thing they can erase and retrieves a memo filled with trivial conversations and predictable jokes. They then proceed to turn on their phone again and continue wandering through the small, dark universe that is filled with their loved one, seeking sleep while being awakened like light through the same song as before.

The lyrics further accentuate the magical and unforgettable nature of a particular moment, emphasizing that although it may never return, the singer closes their eyes again to fully embrace and fill themselves with the person.
