불빛이 꺼진 세상을
지친 걸음을 홀로 걷는 나인 걸
난 어디로 가야 하나
짙은 어둠 속에 더 선명해진 건
이 계속되는 아픔은 끝이 없다는 것

I lost my way
다시 눈을 뜨고 너를 찾지만

I lost my life
아픈 기억이 나를 가둔 걸
Oh People say I′m cold
People say I'm cold
People say I′m cold
마치 얼음 같은 날

내 손에 쥘 수 있는 건
다만 하나의 외로움 뿐이었나 봐
늘 새롭게 반복되는
깊은 한숨 뒤에 또 알 수 있는 건
날 밀어내는 세상은 빛이 없다는 것

I lost my way
다시 눈을 뜨고 너를 찾지만
I lost my life
아픈 기억이 나를 가둔 걸
Oh People say I'm cold
People say I'm cold
People say I′m cold
마치 얼음 같은 날

두 눈을 감고 귀를 막고
잃었던 날 찾아서

I lost my way
다시 눈을 뜨고 너를 찾지만
I lost my life
아픈 기억이 나를 가둔 걸
Oh People say I′m cold
People say I'm cold
People say I′m cold
마치 얼음 같은 날

I lost my way
